NAME

addloself - create a logical inductor

See the file man1/alc_origin.1.

SYNOPSIS

#include "mlo.h"
loself_list ∗addloself(ptfig,type,self,scon1,scon2,name)
lofig_list ∗ptfig ;
char type ;
double self ;
losig_list ∗scon1, ∗scon2 ;
const char ∗name ;

PARAMETERS

ptfig: Pointer to the figure in which the inductor should be added
type: Inductor type
self: Inductor value in Henry
scon1: Pointer to the signal to be connected on the inductor top plate
scon2: Pointer to the signal to be connected on the inductor bottom plate
name: Inductor instance name

DESCRIPTION

addloself creates a new inductor, and adds it to the list of inductors pointed to by ptfig -> LOSELF. The new inductor is added in front of the list, and becomes itself the list head.
The type parameter can take one value :

SELFMIM: for a metal inductor

The self argument is the inductor value in Henry.
Two connectors are created each time a inductor is added, and the scon1 and scon2 losigs are attached to the SIG field of the locon of the appropriate connector. The connectors names are scon1 and scon2; their direction, DIR, are set to 'L', and their TYPE INTERNAL. For details on the structuself, see locon(3) and loself(3).

RETURN VALUE

addloself returns a pointer to the newly created inductor.

ERRORS

"∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ illegal inductor type : type"

The type is not a legal inductor type.

EXAMPLE

#include "mlo.h"
void parallel_inductors(void) /∗ netlist of two parallel inductors ∗/
{


  lofig_list ∗pt  = NULL ;


  losig_list ∗in  = NULL ;


  losig_list ∗out = NULL ;


  pt = addlofig("parallel_inductors") ;


  addlocon(pt,"in",in = givelosig(pt,0),IN) ;


  addlocon(pt,"out",out = givelosig(pt,1),OUT) ;


  addloself(pt,SELFMIM,0.6e-6,in,out,"self1") ;


  addloself(pt,SELFMIM,0.6e-6,in,out,"self2") ;
