bud_pwr()
Returns the budget signal power in dBm
Syntax
y = bud_pwr(Plan, pinNumber, "simName")
Arguments
| Name | Description | Range | Type | Default | Required |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plan | number of the selected frequency plan(needed only for HB) | string | no | ||
| pinNumber | Used to choose which pins of each network element are referenced † | [1, ∞) | integer | 1 | no |
| simName | simulation instance name, such as "AC1" or "HB1", used to qualify the data when multiple simulations are performed. | string | no | ||
| † If 1 is passed as the pinNumber, the results at pin 1 of each element are returned; otherwise, the results for all pins of each element are returned. By default, the pinNumber is set to 1 | |||||
Examples
x = bud_pwr()
returns the signal power at all frequencies when used in AC or HB simulations
y = bud_pwr(50, 1)
returns the signal power at reference frequencies in plan 1 when used for HB simulations

Notes/Equations
Used in AC and harmonic balance simulations.
This is the signal power (in dBm) at the terminal(s) of each component, looking into the component. Note that the fundamental frequency at different pins can be different, and therefore values are given for all frequencies unless a Plan is referenced.
 | Note Remember that the budget function can refer only to the default dataset, that is, the dataset selected in the data display window. |
Budget Path Measurements
Instead of all components in alphabetical order, this function can report its values just for the components selected in a budget path, and following the sequence in that path. To facilitate the budget path measurements the name of the budget path variable, as defined in the Schematic window, needs to be entered as the pinNumber argument.
