ElectricalPort

class ipkiss3.all.ElectricalPort

Port in the electrical domain. Represent the physical (layout level) electrical input/output into a PCell. An ElectricalPort is placed on a specific process layer, and can be connected from any side in the plane as well as from above and below.

Parameters:

process: ProcessLayer, optional

trace_template: _TraceTemplateWithPorts.Layout, optional

Trace Layout Template corresponding with the port

layer: __Layer__, optional

layer for drawing the port elements

shape: Shape, optional

Shape of the port, centered around the origin and not transformed.

term: ( Term ), optional, *None allowed*

deprecated - corresponding term of the port

direction: Enum with value restriction, allowed_values: <enum ‘PORT_DIRECTION’>, optional

direction of the port (PORT_DIRECTION.IN, PORT_DIRECTION.OUT, …)

domain: __Domain__, optional

physical domain of the port (electrical, optical, thermal, …)

name: str and String that contains only ISO/IEC 8859-1 (extended ASCII py3) or pure ASCII (py2) characters, optional

name of the port

angle_deg: ( float ), optional, *None allowed*

The outward facing angle of the port (in arc degrees).

position: Coord2, optional

Position of the vector (coordinate).

angle_rad: optional

The outward facing angle of the port in radians (stored in degrees by default, converted to radians if needed)

transformation: GenericNoDistortTransform, optional

Other Parameters:

inclination_rad: locked

The outward facing angle of the port relative to the zenit, in radians (stored in degrees by default, converted to radians if needed)

inclination_deg: locked

The outward facing angle of the port relative to the zenit.

is_match(other)

Returns whether two ports could match each other.

Two electrical ports match when their layer is the same and their shapes at least touch or overlap. Port shapes consisting of < 3 points are invalid and False will be returned.
