Implementation Details
The element Electrical NOT applies a logical NOT operation on the input electrical signal. Following is the system in the example file electrical_not.icp, and the standard setting for this element.
The "threshold" defines the decision making level of the element; if the signal amplitude is above the threshold, it will output a value at the "low level", on the other hand, if the signal amplitude is below the threshold, it will output a value at the "high level". The following two figures are the electrical NOT output for the same input sinusoidal input signal, with the threshold, low level and high level at 0.5, 0, 1 and 0, -1, 1, respectively.
