design

Design corporate power divider around specified frequency

Since R2022a

Syntax

divider = design(dividerobj,frequency)

divider = design(___,Name=Value)

Description

divider = design(dividerobj,frequency) designs a corporate power divider around a specified frequency.

divider = design(___,Name=Value) designs a corporate power divider splitter with additional options specified using name-value arguments.

Note

PCB components designed using the design function operate around the specified frequency with a 10-15% tolerance.

1.8 GHz Corporate Power Divider

Open Live Script

Design a corporate power divider at 1.8 GHz frequency and 50 ohms impedance.

pd = design(powerDividerCorporate,1.8e9,Z0=50);
figure;
show(pd);

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with title powerDividerCorporate element, xlabel x (mm), ylabel y (mm) contains 12 objects of type patch, surface. These objects represent PEC, feed, Teflon, load.

Input Arguments

collapse all

`dividerobj` — Corporate power divider
`powerDividerCorporate` object

Corporate power divider, specified as a powerDividerCorporate object.

Example: dividerobj = wilkinsonSplitter; design(dividerobj,2e9) designs a corporate power divider around a frequency of 2 GHz.

`frequency` — Design frequency of corporate power divider
real positive scalar

Design frequency of the corporate power divider, specified as a real positive scalar in hertz.

Example: 55e6

Data Types: double

Name-Value Arguments

Specify optional pairs of arguments as Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN, where Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the pairs does not matter.

Example: Z0=2

`Z0` — Characteristic impedance of power divider
`50` (default) | positive scalar

Characteristic impedance of the power divider, specified as a positive scalar in ohms.

Data Types: double

Output Arguments

collapse all

`dividerobj` — Corporate power divider operating around specified frequency
`powerDividerCorporate` object

Corporate power divider operating around the specified frequency, returned as a powerDividerCorporate object.

Note

The design function calculates the physical dimension properties of the corporate power divider object (PortLineLength, PortLineWidth, GroundPlaneWidth) based on the input arguments. Any previous values of these properties are not carried forward.
