Introduction to hAMSter Open simulation dialog • Here you can choose the model to be simulated • Choose ‚TR‘ for transient analysis • You should choose ‚Euler‘ as Integrator for better performance • You can choose one of three methods for solving nonlinear equation systems • Choose simulation period of 5 ms • The ‚Min Stepsize‘ should be shorter than fastest signal changes • Make Max Stepsize‘ shorter for accurate results and longer to improve performance Left Click to continue
Introduction to hAMSter Open simulation dialog • Model hierarchy is shown on the right side • The defined Terminals are listed under ‚Consolidated Nodes‘ • The assigned signals, quantities and generics are listed under ‚Nonconsolidated Nodes‘ • Choose the signals u_c, v_in, and output to get the simulation results • Click ‚Run‘ to start simulation Left Click to continue
