| Description |
| As described in the ChannelML file |
| A simple integrate and fire mechanism, which is based on the implementation in NEURON of the COBA IandF cell

| Note: only ohmic and integrate_and_fire current voltage relationships are supported in current specification |
| Integrate and Fire |
| Threshold |
| Voltage at which the mechanism causes the segment/cell to fire, i.e. membrane potential will be reset to v_reset |
| threshold = -50 mV |
| Refractory period |
| Time after a spike during which the segment will be clamped to v_reset (clamping current given by i = g_refrac*(v - v_reset)) |
| t_refrac = 5 ms |
| Reset membrane potential |
| Membrane potential is reset to this after spiking |
| v_reset = -60 mV |
| Conductance dureing refractory period |
| Conductance during the period t_refrac after a spike, when the current due to this mechanism is given by i = g_refrac*(v - v_reset), therefore a high value for g_refrac, e.g. 100 microsiemens, will effectively clamp the cell at v_reset |
| g_refrac = 0.1 mS |
