Cable Schematic Components

View the circuit components that can be added to the cable schematic view.

Icon Name Description
Resistor Add a resistor to the cable schematic view.
Capacitor Add a capacitor to the cable schematic view.
Inductor Add an inductor to the cable schematic view.
Complex Load Add a complex load to the cable schematic view.
SPICE Circuit Import a SPICE circuit from a file to define the circuit.
VCVS Add a voltage controlled voltage source (VCVS) to the cable schematic view.
Transformer Add a transformer to the cable schematic view.
Cable General Network Import an N-port Touchstone from file to define a general network.
Device Ground

Add a device ground to the schematic view with the option to short to the installation.

The following symbols are used:


  • Open circuit


  • Short circuit


  • For combined MoM/MTL harnesses, the device ground indicates the transitioning point from circuit to full wave solver. Connections beyond the device ground should be included in the full wave model.​
Installation For MTL harnesses, add a connection to the installation (3D model geometry).
Cable Port Add a cable port to the cable schematic view. Voltage sources and loads can be applied to cable ports.
Voltage Probe Define a voltage probe to measure the voltage between two points and add to the cable schematic view.
Current Probe Define a current probe to measure the current at a point and add to the cable schematic view.
Note: Schematic circuit connections take preference over mesh connections when working with the combined MoM/MTL solver.
