Special component

andmei over 10 years ago

Hello,

I have to crate a new package in OrCad PCB. It consists of two thruhole pins,

like a wired resitor. Instead of mounting a component there is only a piece of

copper on the etch top layer.

When I create this I get a drc error at the position where the etch top layer

overlap the thruhole pin.

How can I create such a structur without getting a drc error.

Thanks for you help.

Edit - Properties then select the Pin and add a property NET_SHORT with a value of netname1:netname2 etc. This is a way to create a valid shorting component. There's a note on this :-http://www.parallel-systems.co.uk/images/PDF/Netshort_Definition.pdf
