Constant Q Circles in Smith Chart

svnoosha

Dear all,

I apologize in advance if this question has been asked previously (I was unable to find it), but is there a way to plot constant Q circles in Virtuoso's Smith Chart? By constant Q circles I am referring to the locus of points were X/R is constant. (reactance/resistance)

Thanks

    I don't believe we can do this right now, but it's a reasonable request. I found a couple of CCRs which mentioned this as a request in passing, but they are quite old and not very specific. So please contact customer support and request that we file an enhancement request for this.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
