Nonlinear Operators

Blocks that simulate discontinuities, such as saturation or dead zone, for physical signals

This library contains blocks that simulate discontinuities, such as saturation or dead zone, for physical signals.

Simscape Blocks

PS Abs	Output absolute value of input physical signal
PS Ceil	Output the smallest integer larger than or equal to input physical signal
PS Dead Zone	Provide region of zero output for physical signals
PS Fix	Round input physical signal toward zero
PS Floor	Output the largest integer smaller than or equal to input physical signal
PS Max	Output maximum of two input physical signals
PS Min	Output minimum of two input physical signals
PS Round	Round input physical signal toward nearest integer
PS Saturation	Limit range of physical signal
PS Selector	Select elements from vector or matrix input physical signal (Since R2023b)
PS Sign	Output sign of input physical signal
PS Switch	Single-pole double-throw switch controlled by external physical signal
PS Three-Element Demux	Convert three-element physical signal vector into scalar physical signals
PS Vector Norm	Compute Euclidean norm of vector or matrix physical signal (Since R2023b)

Topics

Physical Signal Unit Propagation
Physical signal blocks propagate units.
Upgrading Models with Legacy Physical Signal Blocks
Prior to R2019a, physical signal blocks did not propagate units.
