I would stay way from advanced circuits. I had them make a board with 8 mil trace and 8 mil space and when I got the boards back you could see that an exacto knife was used to cut between the traces after the solder mask. It was an LIP solder mask and I didn't have a silkscreen. I have had good

[PEDA] Updating Sheet Symbols

2001-08-23 Thread Nicholas Cobb
Hi All, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how I can update sheet symbols to reflect changes in the names of ports of the subsheet. I know that I can delete the sheet symbol and create a new one, but it just seems like there should be a better way. Thanks, Nick Cobb * * * * * * * * *

[PEDA] Unconnected Traces

2001-12-04 Thread Nicholas Cobb
Previously when I have released a board for fab I have gotten a call about traces that lead to nowhere. These are traces I previously routed and then removed the component. Is there any way to check for these kind of traces in Protel? Nick Cobb * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I know I have seen this error before but I can't remember how to fix it. When I try to start the autorouter it tells me that one or more connections cannot be routed due to design rule violations. I have checked the border of the board and it is fine there are no gaps and the outline is on the

I figured out the problem. I had to add a rectangle around the board so that the autorouter would initialize. Then when autorouting it placed tracks right through the arc on the keepout layer. Why would the autorouter ignore keepout arcs? It doesn't make any sense to me. Nick -Original
