Comment: Stable
Issue: Mapping only implemented for NEURON so far
Contributor: Padraig Gleeson |
| Description |
| As described in ChannelML file |
| Example of a synaptic mechanism incorporating multiple decay constants, e.g.
when EPSC has a main rapid component, and a smaller 'tail' with a longer time course. Mapping exists currently only for NEURON |

| Rise time |
| Characteristic time (tau) over which the double exponential synaptic conductance rises |
| 1 ms |
| Decay time |
| Characteristic time (tau) over which the double exponential synaptic conductance decays |
| 2 ms |
| Maximum conductance 2 |
| The peak value of the 2nd (usually slower) component of the synaptic conductance |
| 1E-5 mS |
| Decay time 2 |
| Second characteristic time (tau) over which the 2nd (usually slower) component of the synaptic conductance decays |
| 15 ms |
| Maximum conductance 3 |
| The peak value of the 3rd (usually quite slow) component of the synaptic conductance |
| 1E-6 mS |
| Decay time 3 |
| Third characteristic time (tau) over which the 2nd (usually quite slow) component of the synaptic conductance decays |
| 40 ms |
| Reversal potential |
| The effective reversal potential for the ion flow through the synapse when the conductance is non zero |
| 0 mV |
