calc_load

pysmithchart.utils.calc_load(Z_0, gamma)[source]

Computes the load impedance ZL from reflection coefficient Gamma.

This is the inverse relationship of calc_gamma:

Z_L = Z_0 * (1 + Gamma) / (1 - Gamma)

Parameters:

  • Z_0 – Reference (characteristic) impedance Z0 in ohms. Typically real and positive (e.g., 50 or 75).

  • gamma – Complex reflection coefficient Gamma.

Returns:

The load impedance ZL in ohms (complex in general).
