The Zero Order Hold samples the input signal and holds this value at its output for a specified sample time.

Example Model

See the example model “Zero Order Hold”.
Find it in PLECS under Help > PLECS Documentation > List of Example Models.

Parameters

Sample time: A scalar specifying the length of the hold time or a two-element vector specifying the hold time length and offset, in seconds \((\mathrm{s})\). See also the sample time type in section Sample Times.

Probe Signals

Input: The input signal.
Output: The output signal.
