If the box is checked, the spice compatible reference arrow system is applied to the source.
Linear voltage/current-controlled Voltage Source
vt () = – K ⋅ v[ control component]
vt () = – K ⋅ i[ control component]
The value of the EMF is calculated from the voltage/current of the controlling circuit component
multiplied by an arbitrary control coefficient K. For the control, any circuit component
can be specified.
The SIMPLORER voltage sources have the opposite orientation compared to SPICE-like voltage
sources. See also “Load Reference Arrow System of Circuit Components” on page 71.
In SIMPLORER only voltage sources or ammeters are allowed as controlling components for
current controlled elements. These must be inserted properly in the controlling branch.

Nonlinear voltage/current-controlled Voltage Source
vt () = – f( v[ control component]
)
vt () =
– f( i[ control component]
)
The value of the EMF is calculated from the voltage/current of the controlling component corresponding
to an arbitrary nonlinear function. The control can result from any component of
the electrical circuit.
To describe the nonlinear relation, you must specify a name of an appropriate XY nonlinear
characteristic function. See also “Separate Component Characteristic” on page 297.
