LumpedElementsSim.run_sim

LumpedElementsSim.run_sim(name: str | None = None, components: list | None = None, open_terminations: list | None = None, box_plus_buffer: bool = True) → Tuple[str, str][source]

Executes the capacitance matrix extraction. First it makes sure the tool is running. Then it does the necessary to render the design. Finally it runs the setup defined in this class. So you need to modify the setup ahead. You can modify the setup by using the methods defined in the QAnalysis super-class. After this method concludes you can inspect the output using this class properties.

Parameters:

  • name (str) – reference name for the components selection. If None, it will use the design.name. Defaults to None.

  • components (Union[list, None], optional) – List of components to render. Defaults to None.

  • open_terminations (Union[list, None], optional) – List of tuples of pins that are open. Defaults to None.

  • box_plus_buffer (bool, optional) – Either calculate a bounding box based on the location of rendered geometries or use chip size from design class. Defaults to True.

Returns:

Name of the design and name of the setup.

Return type:

(str, str)
