create_port_on_component#

Components.create_port_on_component(component, net_list, port_type=0, do_pingroup=True, reference_net='gnd', port_name=None, solder_balls_height=None, solder_balls_size=None, solder_balls_mid_size=None, extend_reference_pins_outside_component=False)[source]#

Create ports on a component.

Parameters:

componentstr or self._pedb.component: EDB component or str component name.
net_liststr or list of string.: List of nets where ports must be created on the component. If the net is not part of the component, this parameter is skipped.
port_typeSourceType enumerator, CoaxPort or CircuitPort: Type of port to create. CoaxPort generates solder balls. CircuitPort generates circuit ports on pins belonging to the net list.
do_pingroupbool: True activate pingroup during port creation (only used with combination of CircPort), False will take the closest reference pin and generate one port per signal pin.
refnetstr or list of string.: list of the reference net.
port_namestr: Port name for overwriting the default port-naming convention, which is [component][net][pin]. The port name must be unique. If a port with the specified name already exists, the default naming convention is used so that port creation does not fail.
solder_balls_heightfloat, optional: Solder balls height used for the component. When provided default value is overwritten and must be provided in meter.
solder_balls_sizefloat, optional: Solder balls diameter. When provided auto evaluation based on padstack size will be disabled.
solder_balls_mid_sizefloat, optional: Solder balls mid-diameter. When provided if value is different than solder balls size, spheroid shape will be switched.
extend_reference_pins_outside_componentbool: When no reference pins are found on the component extend the pins search with taking the closest one. If do_pingroup is True will be set to False. Default value is False.

Returns:

double, bool: Salder ball height vale, False when failed.

Examples

>>> from pyedb import Edb
>>> edbapp = Edb("myaedbfolder")
>>> net_list = ["M_DQ<1>", "M_DQ<2>", "M_DQ<3>", "M_DQ<4>", "M_DQ<5>"]
>>> edbapp.components.create_port_on_component(cmp="U2A5", net_list=net_list,
>>> port_type=SourceType.CoaxPort, do_pingroup=False, refnet="GND")
