Component behavior modeling using separate behavior model

摘要

A behavior model is provided, which is configured to simulate one aspect of the behavior of a component apart from the component model for the component. The behavior model can be included in a circuit model used to simulate operation of a circuit. The circuit model can include a component model for a component and a corresponding behavior model, which is located in parallel or series with the component model. The component model and behavior model can collectively simulate all of the behavior of the component within the circuit. In an embodiment, the behavior model simulates snapback behavior exhibited by the component.
