Components Structure in Simplorer
− A Component in Simplorer is a frame (or structure) having several
properties:
− Is identified by a Name and a Type
− Contains one or more Models (behavior definitions), and models
can be written also using different codes (SML, VHDL, C, etc.)
− Contains one or more Symbols, i.e. the graphical representations
of component itself
− Can have multiple Terminals/Pins, which can be Conservative
and/or Non-Conservative nodes (Non-Conservative nodes show
always a direction: in, out or in/out)
− Furthermore, a component can have Terminals/Pins (behaving
like Non-Conservative nodes) for input Parameters and for output
Quantities/Signals (also time-dependent). An example can be a
time-varying resistance value as input Parameter and the
resistance power loss as output Quantity
