Pulse Current Source

This is an independent current source with a trapezoidal waveform of the current as a function of time. The arrow symbol shows the direction of the positive current flow through the current source.

The parameters of a pulse current source are the following:

• Initial current in Amps, I1;
• Peak current in Amps, I2;
• Initial delay time, Td:
• In seconds if type is TIME
• In degrees if type is POSITION and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units if type is POSITION and type of motion is translational
• In rpm if type is SPEED and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units per second if type is SPEED and type of motion is translational
• Rise time, Tr:
• In seconds if type is TIME
• In degrees if type is POSITION and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units if type is POSITION and type of motion is translational
• In rpm if type is SPEED and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units per second if type is SPEED and type of motion is translational
• Fall time Tf:
• In seconds if type is TIME
• In degrees if type is POSITION and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units if type is POSITION and type of motion is translational
• In rpm if type is SPEED and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units per second if type is SPEED and type of motion is translational
• Pulse width, Pw:
• In seconds if type is TIME
• In degrees if type is POSITION and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units if type is POSITION and type of motion is translaional
• In rpm if type is SPEED and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units per second if type is SPEED and type of motion is translational
• Pulse period, Period:
• In seconds if type is TIME
• In degrees if type is POSITION and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units if type is POSITION and type of motion is translational
• In rpm if type is SPEED and type of motion is rotational
• In geometry units per second if type is SPEED and type of motion is translational
