create_port_on_pins

Components.create_port_on_pins(refdes, pins, reference_pins, impedance=50.0, port_name=None, pec_boundary=False)

Create circuit port between pins and reference ones.

Parameters:

refdesComponent reference designator

str or EDBComponent object.

pinspin name where the terminal has to be created. Single pin or several ones can be provided.If several

pins are provided a pin group will is created. Pin names can be the EDB name or the EDBPadstackInstance one.

For instance the pin called ``Pin1`` located on component ``U1``, ``U1-Pin1`` or ``Pin1`` can be provided and

will be handled.

str, [str], EDBPadstackInstance, [EDBPadstackInstance]

reference_pinsreference pin name used for terminal reference. Single pin or several ones can be provided.

If several pins are provided a pin group will is created. Pin names can be the EDB name or the

EDBPadstackInstance one. For instance the pin called ``Pin1`` located on component ``U1``, ``U1-Pin1``

or ``Pin1`` can be provided and will be handled.

str, [str], EDBPadstackInstance, [EDBPadstackInstance]

impedancePort impedance

str, float

port_namestr, optional

Port name. The default is None, in which case a name is automatically assigned.

pec_boundarybool, optional

Whether to define the PEC boundary, The default is ``False``. If set to ``True``,

a perfect short is created between the pin and impedance is ignored. This

parameter is only supported on a port created between two pins, such as

when there is no pin group.

Returns:

EDB terminal created, or False if failed to create.

Example:

>>> :obj:`from` :obj:`pyedb` :obj:`import` :obj:`Edb`
    ..

>>> :obj:`edb` = :obj:`Edb`\(:obj:`path_to_edb_file`)
    ..

>>> :obj:`pin` = "AJ6"
    ..

>>> :obj:`ref_pins` = ["AM7", "AM4"]
    ..

Or to take all reference pins

>>> :obj:`ref_pins` = [:obj:`pin` :obj:`for` :obj:`pin` :obj:`in` :class:`python:list`\(:obj:`edb.components`\["U2A5"]:obj:`.pins.values`\()) :obj:`if` :obj:`pin.net_name` == "GND"]
    ..

>>> :obj:`edb.components.create_port_on_pins`\(refdes="U2A5", pins=pin, reference_pins=ref_pins)
    ..

>>> :obj:`edb.save_edb`\()
    ..

>>> :obj:`edb.close_edb`\()
    ..
