Returns Component with a 1D or 2D grid of components.

Parameters:

• components – Iterable to be placed onto a grid. (can be 1D or 2D).

• spacing – between adjacent elements on the grid, can be a tuple for different distances in height and width.

• separation – If True, guarantees elements are separated with fixed spacing if False, elements are spaced evenly along a grid.

• shape – x, y shape of the grid (see np.reshape). If no shape and the list is 1D, if np.reshape were run with (1, -1).

• align_x – {‘x’, ‘xmin’, ‘xmax’} for x (column) alignment along.

• align_y – {‘y’, ‘ymin’, ‘ymax’} for y (row) alignment along.

• edge_x – {‘x’, ‘xmin’, ‘xmax’} for x (column) (ignored if separation = True).

• edge_y – {‘y’, ‘ymin’, ‘ymax’} for y (row) along (ignored if separation = True).

• rotation – for each component in degrees.

• h_mirror – horizontal mirror y axis (x, 1) (1, 0). most common mirror.

• v_mirror – vertical mirror using x axis (1, y) (0, y).

• add_ports_prefix – adds prefix to port names. False adds suffix.

• name_ports_with_component_name – if True uses component.name as unique id. False uses index.

Returns:

Component containing components grid.
