Low-pass filter

Simple low-pass filter.

Collaboration diagram for Low-pass filter:

A filter that filters out high frequencies and keep the lower frequencies. \( \dot y = \frac{1}{\tau}(u(t) - y(t)) \).

Example configuration excerpt

<Lib
  LibName="fhsim_base"
  SimObject="Math/LowPass"
  Name="F"
  ConvergenceRatio="0.0185"
  PortWidth="1"
/>
...
<Connection
  F.In="A.Sine" <!-- From somewhere else -->
/>

Input Ports

Name	Width	Description
In	<PortWidth>	The input port, \(u\)

Output Ports

Name	Width	Description
Out	<PortWidth>	The value of the low pass filtered input ("In"), \(y\)

Configuration parameters

Name	Width	Description
PortWidth	1	The number of elements in the signal.
ConvergenceRatio	1 or <PortWidth>	The convergence ratio \( r = \frac{1}{\tau}\). If the parameter size is 1, the same ratio is used for all elements.
