create_port_on_component

Components.create_port_on_component(component, net_list, port_type=0, do_pingroup=True, reference_net='gnd', port_name=None)

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 CoaxPort), 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.

Returns:

double, bool

Salder ball height vale, False when failed.

Examples

>>> from pyaedt 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")
