Backdrilling and correct Allegro property use

stump1019

Looking to make sure that this approach is the correct one or if there is another? Say you have a board with two press fit connectors on the same side, the board is .125 think with 10 layers. You route high speed signals from one connector to another say on layer 4. The press fit connectors have max pin lengths of .035 for one connector and .055 for the other. You set up your backdrilling passes and due to pin length only backdrills the connector with the .035 pin length with the .055 being too long. What is the correct process to get this other connector to backdrilled to the closest layer that will accommodate the .055 pin length ?

    There is a useful "best practices" doc as part of the installation. Look at <your_install_dir>\doc\algrobackdrill\algrobackdrill.pdf which should cover what you need to do.
