>>Basics>Circuit>Semiconductors System Level
The System level Diode model is used to simulate a static voltage-current-relation. Each voltage
cause a corresponding current depending on the selected characteristic.
The diode types of predefined characteristics defined within the component dialog guarantee
a high calculation speed. In contrast to the predefined characteristic types (equivalent line,
exponential function, lookup table) you can use each other separate characteristic from the
Tools folder or an appropriate quantity of a component.Characteristics based on Lookup tables
allow simple access to measured curves for the switching behavior of the components.
