Units are case-sensitive. Generally only units with useful conversions are defined. Unit tracking or aggregation is generally not desired. If no unit is defined, the default is assumed. The following is a list of standard units.
Default is meter. Permissible units are:
m
mil, mils
in, inch
ft, foot, feet
mi, mile
Default is degrees. Permissible units are:
deg, degree, degrees
rad, radian, radians
Default is seconds. Permissible units are:
day, dy, days
hour, hours, hr, hrs
min, minutes, minute
s, second, seconds
Permissible units are:
%
Permissible units are:
dB: linear translation assumes "voltage" dB, e.g. -3dB is 0.7071 (convention for S-Parameters)
Default is no modifier. If the unit is not one of the above, then the first character in the unit will set the multiplier. Therefore 'nF', 'nH', 'n', and 'no_unit' are all equivalent to Mason (obviously the last one would cause confusing results for the unwary designer).
