kqcircuits.elements.finger_capacitor_square

class kqcircuits.elements.finger_capacitor_square.FingerCapacitorSquare[source]

Bases: kqcircuits.elements.element.Element

The PCell declaration for a square finger capacitor.

Two ports with reference points. The arm leading to the finger has the same width as fingers. The feedline has the same length as the width of the ground gap around the coupler.

can_create_from_shape_impl()[source]

default implementation

build()[source]

Child classes re-define this method to build the PCell.

get_ground_region()[source]

Returns the ground region for the finger capacitor.
