Ideal capacitor.
Passive Components
This component provides one or more ideal capacitors between its two electrical terminals. If the component is vectorized, a coupling can be modeled between the internal capacitors. Capacitors may be switched in parallel only if their momentary voltages are equal.
See section "Configuring PLECS" in chapter "Using PLECS" for information on how to change the graphical representation of capacitors.
In a vectorized component, all internal capacitors have the same value if the
parameter is a scalar. To specify the capacitances individually use a vector
. The length
of the vector determines the component's width:
In order to model a coupling between the internal capacitors enter a square
matrix. The size of the matrix corresponds to the width of the component:
