Re: Clarification question on port direction

The "direction" has meaning for signal-flow behavioral models,
but I tried to make the point in my BMAS presentation for
compact modeling that "direction" does not apply to resistors,
diodes, transistors, etc.

Jonathan sort of made that point when he noted that logic gates
do have a "direction."

Many analog simulators do not, in fact, differentiate between
input/output/inout.  (I will also note that you had the order
backwards in your post, relative to how one simulator "requires" it:
you should have 
  inout p, n;
before
  electrical p, n;
)
