    Syntax

    mdlxSetup(libpath)

    Description

    mdlxSetup(libpath) sets up the Modelithics® library specified in libpath. libpath is persistent across MATLAB® sessions.

    Note

    This function requires a Modelithics SELECT+ Library™ or a Modelithics Exemplar Library license. For more information, see Modelithics Libraries for MATLAB.

    Set up Modelithics SELECT+ Library™.

    mdlxSetup('C:\mdlx_library\SELECT')

    Create a new Modelithics library object related to the library you set up.

    mdlx = mdlxLibrary;

    Search the library for a component that you can mount on the Rogers4350B4mil substrate with the vendor name AVX. This command displays the search results of the components based on your search criteria.

    search(mdlx,'Rogers4350B4mil',Vendor='AVX')

    Select the Substrate tab to view the the component properties such as substrate, thickness, and many more.

    The AVX 600S capacitor on a 4 mil Roger 4350B substrate fits the search criteria. Create a Modelithics component object that mAVXhes these characteristics.

    pobj = mdlxPart(mdlx,'600S','Capacitors','AVX','Rogers4350B4mil',Value=1.2e-12);

    Create a circuit named C_AVX_600S_Rogers4350B4mil.

    hckt = circuit('C_AVX_600S_Rogers4350B4mil');

    Add the Modelithics component to the circuit.

    add(hckt,[1 2],pobj);

    Set the ports of the circuit. 

    setports(hckt, [1 0],[2 0]);

    Display the Modelithics component.

    disp(pobj)

    Calculate the S-parameters of the circuit.

    S = sparameters(hckt,freq);

    Plot the S-parameters characteristics.
