Utilities
R2026bFaults, environmental parameters
Blocks in the Utilities library allow you to model time- and event-based faults and to set parameters for multiple SPICE-compatible blocks.
Simscape Blocks
 | Environment Parameters | Set parameters that apply to all connected SPICE-compatible blocks |
 | Fault | Electrical fault with temporal, behavioral, or external trigger |
 | Fault (Three-Phase) | Signal-enabled or time-based, single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase, grounded or ungrounded fault |
Featured Examples
MOSFET Fault in Buck Converter
How a fault may be applied to a MOSFET in a power converter in order to explore the operation of protection circuitry. After the MOSFET becomes faulted, the crowbar circuitry is activated in order to clamp the output voltage across the load and eventually to cause the fuse to blow.
Specify Temperature on SPICE Diode Block with Environment Parameters Block
Use the Environment Parameters block to change the temperature of a SPICE Diode block in a simple circuit.
