1. This is a tuned demodulator that selects the input harmonic closest to the specified Fnom frequency and generates a baseband output signal equal to the instantaneous amplitude of the selected carrier frequency.
   If there is no analysis harmonic frequency close enough to the Fnom frequency, a warning is issued and the output is 0. Input impedance is infinite; output impedance is set by Rout, and is limited to a minimum value of 0.1 Ohm. The open circuit output voltage is defined by
   
   where
   
   and
   k represents the value at the analysis harmonic frequency closest to the Fnom value
   0 represents the baseband component of the output voltage. All non-baseband output frequency components are 0.
2. This model generates only the absolute value of the input because the imaginary part of baseband signals is 0 for baseband envelope simulations. It does not produce the required baseband signal in transient simulation so you have to add a filter after it to filter the unwanted signal.
