Title: How does the analog solver deal with multi-discipline AMS Models
Post by jerome_ams on Jun 26^th, 2012, 8:45am

Hi there,
We are developping electromagnetical VHDL-AMS models and wonder how the analog solver solves multi-discipline AMS simulations.
In case of an electrical simulation, it s pretty clear: Kirchoff s laws are applied on the currents, and then the voltages are derived out the current values, right?
For other disciplines, like magnetic, I expect that the same thing will apply, based on the Generalized Kirchoff s Law applied on "through" and "across" quantities.
But how an electromagnetical equation will be solved?
Let s say I have : MMF == Ns * I;
where MMF is the magneto force (across quantity, magnetic discipline), I is the electrical current (through quantity) and Ns is a constant?
How both electrical and magnetic disciplines related resolution schemes are coupled? Is there a priorization between electrical and magnetic quantities computation?
Many thx!
Cheers;
