This works like a gem. Thanks for sharing this. :) I have one more question. If i connect this element in a ckt, say in series with normal capacitor (C1)...then KCL requires that dQ/dt of both the elements should be same.
C1 C2 (self defined VA based cap) ----||------||------
If my transient signal has no dc level then Q as well as dQ/dt are same on both the capacitors. However, for a signal with an offset or with a dc level, only dQ/dt is same not the absolute charge Q since SPICE forces the middle potential to ground though gdcpath, thereby Q from C*V are different.
What should be the real picture. If someone do measurements on this ckt, will he sees the same? I checked with the simulation that if capacitors are leaky, the node potential equilibrate depending on the leakage resistance of the two capacitors.
Thanks
