A problem I found when I just started with simulink was connecting the different signals. Finally, I did a summary with all the combinations and I want to share it.
Data type:
- Simulink: S
- Physical: PS
- Electrical:
- SimPowerSystems
- SimScape
S to PS
![]() |
Simulink-PS Converter |
S to SimPowerSystems
![]() |
Controlled Voltage Source |
Same block with current.
S to SimScape
S to SimScape |
PS to S
![]() |
PS-Simulink Converter |
PS to SimPowerSystems
PS to SimPowerSystems |
PS to SimScape
SimPowerSystems to S
![]() |
Voltage Measurement |
Same block with current.
SimScape to PS
![]() |
Voltage Sensor |
Same block with current.
SimPowerSystems and SimScape signals can be converted to whatever it is required just combining these blocks.
Example:
Note: Using conversion blocks slows the simulation significantly.

Hey, thanks for the detailed example. I am struggling to connect my Op-Amp (from Simscape>Foundation Library>Electrical>Electrical Elements) to a NAND gate (from Simulink>Logical and bit operations). Your help would be much appreciated.
