=Timed Peak/Hold=

The MotoHawk™ Timed Peak/Hold block exposes the peak/hold behavior of hardware drivers that support dual load current thresholds. The dual current thresholds are nominally set to provide a "peak" current and a "hold" current.

==Block ID==

Timed Peak/Hold

==Library==

MotoHawk_lib/Advanced Digital I/O

==Description==

[[Image:TimedPeakHold.PNG]]

===Usage===

The intent behind the Peak/Hold blocks is to expose the peak/hold behavior of hardware drivers that support dual load current thresholds. The dual current thresholds are nominally set to provide a "peak" current and a "hold" current. The higher "peak" current is initially applied to allow an injector or valve like load to "pull-in". The current requirements to "pull-in" an actuator are higher than the current required to keep an actuator "pulled-in". Thus the current in the load must be "peaked" to achieve "pull-in" and then "held" at a lower threshold to maintain actuator "pull-in".

The block's '''Peak Time''' signal allows a model to set the time that the driver should maintain the "peak" threshold before switching to the "hold" threshold. The "peak" current threshold is applied and the timer zeroed each time the output associated with the selected resource is asserted (turned ON). The driver automatically reverts to the "hold" current threshold once the Peak Time has expired and it will remain in "hold" until the associated output is next turned OFF.

===Zero Peak Time===

Note that a '''Peak Time''' of zero represents infinite peak. Set the '''Peak Time''' to a small non-zero time to achieve "hold" only operation

===Supported Output Behaviors===

MotoHawk currently only supports the use of timed peak with the PSP Output like behaviors.
