\r\n\r\nToday I received a question where the user was looking for an Integrator block with variable upper and lower limits that could be specified from signals. I was happy to simply answer: There's a solution for that!<\/em>\r\n\r\n

In order to help users finding the information they need, we have a bank of technical solutions published on our website. These solutions are created by technical support engineers when they answer a question. If they think that someone else in the world might have a similar questions, they publish it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

So I went to the support section<\/a> of our website and searched for variable limits integrator<\/em>:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\"Support<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The first result I found is the following solution:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

How can I create an Integrator block with variable limits in Simulink?<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n

When looking at the details, I realized that I created this solution myself a few years ago, not long after I joined MathWorks. It uses the state port of the Integrator<\/a> block with a few Logical Operator<\/a> and Relational Operator<\/a> blocks to make an integrator with variable limits:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

If you are looking for an explanation or an example that you cannot find in the doc, try our technical solutions. You might find very interesting stuff and save a lot of time.\r\n\r\n

Now it's your turn<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n
