Implementation Details
The element Electrical Constant Multiplier multiplies a constant value to the input signal's amplitude. For the implementation detail of this element, please see the example file electrical_constant_multiplier.icp, the following figure shows the system and simulation result of the system in the example.
Please note that, the electrical constant multiplier multiplies the constant gain on the amplitude of the input signal, thus the powers of the signals gain have a square effect (6 dB of increment in log scale). The following figures are the output of the oscilloscopes in the system, the scales of the amplitude can be seen.
