Mu

Mu(
t_resultsDirectory
)
=> o_waveform / nil

Description

Returns the alternative stability factor that indicates the minimum distance between the origin of the unit Smith chart and the load unstable region.

If mu > 1, the two-port network is unconditionally stable.

Arguments

t_resultsDirectory

Path to the results directory that contains results of S-Parameter analysis.

Value Returned

o_waveform

Waveform object represnting the minimum distance between the origin of the unit Smith chart and the load unstable region.

nil

Waveform object cannot be created because of an error.

Examples

The following example creates a Waveform window and returns its window ID.

awvCreatePlotWindow()
=> window:3

The following example opens simulation results of S-Parameters analysis stored in the specified results directory.

openResults("/servers/user/MU/simulation/ampTest/spectre/schematic/psf")
=> "/servers/user/MU/simulation/ampTest/spectre/schematic/psf"

The following example creates a waveform object MuWaveform, representing the minimum distance between the origin of the unit Smith chart and the load unstable region.

MuWaveform=Mu("/servers/user/MU/simulation/ampTest/spectre/schematic/psf")
=> srrWave:0x37627330

The following example plots the waveform object MuWaveform.

awvPlotWaveform(
    awvGetCurrentWindow()
    list(MuWaveform)
    ?expr list("Mu")
    ?color list("y12")
    ?index list(1)
    ?lineType list("line")
    ?lineStyle list("dash")
    ?lineThickness list("thick")
    ?showSymbols list(t)
    ?dataSymbol list("o")
    )
=> t
