Design Rule Check Error

DRkidd22
DRkidd22 over 14 years ago
Hello, I made my own footprint for a 1206 smd resistor and when I run the DRC check in orcad 16.3 I get the following error: ERROR [CAP0095] Allegro footprint R1206SMD was not found in the search path. R1206SMD is the name of my .dra and .psm files which I have stored in my own directory on the C/: drive. I've made sure that PCB Editor paths are correct, but I keep getting the error. Any help will be appreciated.

     Hi, You should make sure in file padstack create footprints  don't have flash symbol (file .fsm) (element of thermal relief). If there are, you must save the same folder with file .dra, .psm
