Create and push a substrate reference (Type 10) to AEDT.

A substrate reference is a named substrate used as a reference by transmission-line models in the schematic.

Parameters:

appansys.aedt.core.circuit.Circuit

Circuit application instance.

dielectric_heightstr, optional

Dielectric layer height with units. The default is "1mm".

dielectric_constantfloat, optional

Relative permittivity (εr). The default is 2.2.

loss_tangentfloat, optional

Dielectric loss tangent. The default is 0.0.

air_heightstr, optional

Air-region height with units. The default is "25mm".

roughnessstr, optional

Conductor roughness with units. The default is "".

metal_materialstr, optional

Conductor material. The default is "copper".

metal_thicknessstr, optional

Conductor thickness with units. The default is "0.7mil".

namestr, optional

Substrate name. A unique name is generated when None.

Returns:

SubstrateDataBlock
