Processing Component

class kicadtoNgspice.Processing.PrcocessNetlist

• This class include all the function required for pre-proccessing of netlist before converting to Ngspice Netlist.

convertICintoBasicBlocks(schematicInfo, outputOption, modelList, plotText)

• Parses the schematicInfo and returns
• • SchematicInfo
• • Output Option
• • Model List
• • Unkown Model List
• • Multiple Model List
• • Plot text
• Parsing info is provided below

insertSpecialSourceParam(schematicInfo, sourcelist)

• Insert Special source parameter
• As per the parameters passed create source list, start with v or i
• Then check for type whether ac, dc, sine, etc…
• Handle starting with h and f as well

preprocessNetlist(kicadNetlist, param)

• Preprocess netlist (replace parameters)
• Separate infoline (first line) from the rest of netlist

readNetlist(filename)

• Read the circuit file and return splitted lines

readParamInfo(kicadNetlist)

• Read Parameter information and store it into dictionary
• kicadNetlist is the .cir file content

separateNetlistInfo(netlist)

• Remove the options such as .end, .param, starting wtih “.” from the netlist file
• This is stored as option info, whereas rest is stored as schematicInfo
• Rest from the * Sheet Name: line stored as schematicInfo
