class AbstractLumpedPort[source]#

Bases: AbstractTerminalPort

Abstract base class for lumped ports.

Parameters:

  • name (str) – Unique name for the port.

  • impedance (Union[complex, ImpedanceSpec] = 50) – Reference port impedance in ohms. Accepts a plain real number (e.g. 50) for a purely resistive load, or an ImpedanceSpec for a complex-valued impedance (which also requires a measurement frequency). Passing a complex scalar with a non-zero imaginary part raises a validation error; use ImpedanceSpec instead.

  • num_grid_cells (Optional[PositiveInt] = 3) – Number of mesh grid cells associated with the port along each direction, which are added through automatic mesh refinement. A value of None will turn off automatic mesh refinement.

  • enable_snapping_points (bool = True) – When enabled, snapping points are automatically generated to snap grids to key geometric features of the lumped port for more accurate modelling.

  • a (Lumped ports model a physical port as a combination of an excitation source and)

  • via (load element (resistor or RLC network). The reference impedance is set)

:param impedance: :param which accepts either a plain real number (e.g. 50) or a full: :param ImpedanceSpec for complex-valued impedances paired with a measurement frequency.:

impedance#
num_grid_cells#
enable_snapping_points#
snapped_center(grid)[source]#

Get the exact center of this port after snapping along the injection axis. Ports are snapped to the nearest Yee cell boundary to match the exact position of the load.

abstract property to_load#

Create a load from the lumped port.

abstract to_voltage_monitor(freqs, snap_center=None, grid=None)[source]#

Field monitor to compute port voltage.

abstract to_current_monitor(freqs, snap_center=None, grid=None)[source]#

Field monitor to compute port current.

to_monitors(freqs, snap_center=None, grid=None, **kwargs)[source]#

Field monitors to compute port voltage and current.
