rfckt.passive class - Package: rfckt

Passive component or network

Syntax

Description

Use the passive class to represent passive RF components and networks that are characterized by network parameter data.

h = rfckt.passive returns an passive-device object whose properties all have their default values.

h = rfckt.passive('Property1',value1,'Property2',value2,...) returns a circuit object, h, based on the specified properties. Properties that you do not specify retain their default values.

Use the read method to read the passive object data from a Touchstone data file. When you read S-parameter data into an rfckt.passive object, the magnitude of your S₂₁ data must be less than or equal to 1.

Properties

AnalyzedResult	Computed S-parameters, noise figure, OIP3, and group delay values
IntpType	Interpolation method
