Limiter

Limit the range of a signal

Modelica Standard Library

	Description
	The Limiter block passes its input signal as an output signal as long as the input is within the specified upper and lower limits, $u_{\max}$ and $u_{\min}$ . If this is not the case, the corresponding limits are passed as output. The Signal Size parameter assigns the dimension of the input and output connectors.

	Equations
	$y = {\begin{array}{c} u_{\min} & u \leq u_{\min} \\ u & u_{\min} < u < u_{\max} \\ u_{\max} & u_{\max} \leq u \end{array}$
