Microstrip Wizard

ICON: Us1p icon.png

MENU: Tools → Transmission Line Wizards → Microstrip Line

MODULE(S): EM.Tempo, EM.Picasso, EM.Ferma

FUNCTION: Creates the parameterized geometry of a microstrip line segment on a conductor-backed single-layer dielectric substrate in the project workspace


PYTHON COMMAND(S):

emag_microstrip_tempo(h,er,z0,strip_len,feed_len,sub_len,sub_wid,draw_substrate)

emag_microstrip_picasso(h,er,z0,strip_len,feed_len)

emag_microstrip_ferma(h,er,z0,box_multiplier,draw_substrate)


MICROSTRIP WIZARD PARAMETERS

Parameter Name Value Type Units Default Value Notes
h real numeric project units - substrate height (thickness)
er real numeric - - substrate relative permittivity
z0 real numeric Ohms 50 characteristic impedance
strip_len real numeric meters - length of line segment (only in EM.Tempo & EM.Picasso)
feed_len real numeric meters - length of feed line (only in EM.Tempo)
sub_len real numeric meters - length of substrate (only in EM.Tempo)
sub_wid real numeric meters - width of substrate (only in EM.Tempo)
draw_substrate Boolean - True Adds substrate & ground plane

Coplanar Waveguide (CPW) Wizard

ICON: Cpw1p icon.png

MENU: Tools → Transmission Line Wizards → Coplanar Waveguide

MODULE(S): EM.Tempo, EM.Picasso, EM.Ferma

FUNCTION: Draws the geometry of a coplanar waveguide segment on a single-layer dielectric substrate

TO TRANSLATE AN OBJECT SELECTION:

  1. Activate the Translate Tool.
  2. Click on the object(s) you want to translate one by one and press the Enter Key when done.
  3. Next, you have to establish the translation vector. Left-click on a point in the project workspace to specify the start of the vector.
  4. Drag the mouse to draw a ghost of the translation vector in the desired direction. Left-click a second point to specify the end of the vector.
  5. The object selection is translated by the specified vector.
  6. A dialog pops up on the lower right corner of the screen where you can fine-tune or modify the translation vector before finalizing the translate operation.
  7. Using the Translate Dialog, you can also simply type in the final destination coordinates for the object selection.


PYTHON COMMAND(S):

emag_cpw_tempo(h,er,strip_wid,slot_wid,strip_len,sub_len,sub_wid,draw_substrate)

emag_cpw_picasso(h,er,w,s,ls,lf)

emag_cpw_ferma(h,er,s,w,box_multiplier,draw_substrate)
