Circuit: schematic subcircuit management#
This example shows how you can use PyAEDT to add a subcircuit to a circuit design. It pushes down the child subcircuit and pops up to the parent design.
Perform required import#
Perform the required import.

Set AEDT version#
Set AEDT version.
aedt_version = "2024.1"
Set non-graphical mode#
Set non-graphical mode.
You can set non_graphical either to True or False.
non_graphical = False
Launch AEDT with Circuit#
Launch AEDT 2023 R2 in graphical mode with Circuit.

Add subcircuit#
Add a new subcircuit to the previously created circuit design, creating a child circuit. Push this child circuit down into the child subcircuit.
subcircuit = circuit.modeler.schematic.create_subcircuit(location=[0.0, 0.0])
subcircuit_name = subcircuit.composed_name
circuit.push_down(subcircuit)
True
Parametrize subcircuit#
Parametrize the subcircuit and add a resistor, inductor, and a capacitor with
the parameter values in the following code example. Connect them in series
and then use the pop_up # method to get back to the parent design.
