+        do_pingroup : bool
+            True activate pingroup during port creation (only used with combination of CircPort),
+            False will take the closest reference pin and generate one port per signal pin.
+        refnet : string or list of string.
+            list of the reference net.
+        port_name : str
+            Port name for overwriting the default port-naming convention,
+            which is ``[component][net][pin]``. The port name must be unique.
+            If a port with the specified name already exists, the
+            default naming convention is used so that port creation does
+            not fail.
+        solder_balls_height : float, optional
+            Solder balls height used for the component. When provided default value is overwritten and must be
+            provided in meter.
+        solder_balls_size : float, optional
+            Solder balls diameter. When provided auto evaluation based on padstack size will be disabled.
+        solder_balls_mid_size : float, optional
+            Solder balls mid-diameter. When provided if value is different than solder balls size, spheroid shape will
+            be switched.
+        extend_reference_pins_outside_component : bool
+            When no reference pins are found on the component extend the pins search with taking the closest one. If
+            `do_pingroup` is `True` will be set to `False`. Default value is `False`.
+
