Detailed Description

Abstract base class for RF attenuator implementations.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ AttenuatorBase()

AttenuatorBase::AttenuatorBase ( AttenuatorDesignParameters AS )

inline

Construct with design parameters.

Parameters

AS	Design specifications (attenuation, impedances, frequency, power, etc.)

Member Function Documentation

◆ buildNetwork()

virtual void AttenuatorBase::buildNetwork ( )

protectedpure virtual

Build the schematic network.

Note: Pure virtual - each attenuator type implements its own

◆ calculateParams()

virtual void AttenuatorBase::calculateParams ( )

protectedpure virtual

Calculate component values and power dissipation.

Note: Pure virtual - each attenuator type implements its own

◆ getPowerDissipation()

QMap< QString, double > AttenuatorBase::getPowerDissipation ( )

inline

Get power dissipation for all resistors in the attenuator.

Returns: Map of resistor names to power values in Watts

◆ synthesize()

virtual void AttenuatorBase::synthesize ( )

pure virtual

Synthesize the attenuator: Calculates topology parameters and build the circuit.

Implements Network.

Implemented in BridgedTeeAttenuator, LPadFirstSeries, LPadFirstShunt, PiAttenuator, QW_SeriesAttenuator, QW_ShuntAttenuator, ReflectionAttenuator, RSeriesAttenuator, RShuntAttenuator, and TeeAttenuator.
