Smooth Ramp

Generates a real smooth ramp signal

y

Important: The Smooth Ramp component has been deprecated. Instead, use the Ramp component with its Smooth corners parameter set to true.

Description

The Smooth Ramp component uses a hyperbolic tangent function to generate a smooth ramp signal. At time $t={T}_{0}$ (mid-point time), the output $y$ equals  The rate of change at time $t={T}_{0}$ is (mid-point rate).

The equation of this component is
