I_exp

Exponential current source

Modelica Standard Library

	Description
	The I_exp component models a rising and falling exponential source.

	Equations
	$i = i_{p} = - i_{n}$ $i = I_{1} + {\begin{array}{c} 0 & t < {TD}_{1} \\ {\begin{array}{c} (I_{2} - I_{1}) (1 - \exp (- \frac{t - {TD}_{1}}{τ_{1}})) & t < {TD}_{2} \\ (I_{2} - I_{1}) (1 - \exp (- \frac{t - {TD}_{1}}{τ_{1}})) + (I_{1} - I_{2}) (1 - \exp (- \frac{t - {TD}_{2}}{τ_{2}})) & otherwise \end{array} & otherwise \end{array}$ $v = v_{p} - v_{n}$
