Shorts and DRC

4ricktan over 5 years ago

How do I make a 2 pin component who's sole function is to short pin1 and pin2 together without DRCs?

I would like to make the overall outline to be small enough to fit in between the 2 pads of a 0201 resistor/capacitor.

Generally two methods. Add a component to your schematic that shorts out the pins and place it on the board. Or follow the guidance here for adding a "jumper" to the board while routing.
