Simulink Signals Conversion

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.

  1. 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.
