I'm working on a layout with two quad flat packs. A substantial number of pins on each chip have no connection. Because of the difficulty of hand-soldering to fine pitch pins, I would like to add a track and a via to each unused pin for possible use later.
I'm have two issues: 1. DRC flags these extra tracks and vias as violations. 2. I get no protection from the design rules that specify minimum clearances and such. I think this must be a common problem. Is there an easy way to fix this without changing the schematic? Protel 99 SE sp6.
