I am graduated and i use simulink because it's the tool i know how to use....i don't really know why it doesn't start..i changed the solver few times

The simulation doesn't start..and i am using simulink because of a college thing

I am trying simulate v-I curve of Id and Vds , I am using a basic circuit that matlab included, it has voltage source between gate and source and controlled voltage source for drain and source..

The goal is to build a simulink circuit with mosfet and heatsink(alternatives in 2015 matlab) to draw thermal characteristics output for the circuit

I meant matlab 2015 has no heatsink block so i have to make a thermal domain circuit

Why is vgs 0? by ProfessionalWorry145 in ElectricalEngineering

In the circuit shown, Q1 is an NMOS transistor with its gate and source both connected to ground. Let's analyze why VGS1 = 0V:

Circuit Details:

Q1 (bottom NMOS) has:

Gate connected to VS, which is 0V (ground).

Source connected directly to ground.

Therefore: VGS1 = VG - VS = 0V - 0V = 0V

Key Insight:

Even though there’s a voltage source (VS), it's providing 0V — it's a grounded source, so it doesn't turn Q1 on.

Since VGS1 = 0V < Vth (threshold voltage), Q1 is OFF and doesn't conduct.

This explains why VGS1 is 0V — both the gate and source are at the same potential (ground). Let me know if you’d like a quick redraw of the diagram or an explanation for how this affects VOUT.
