Hi folks, I would like to discuss this here. Very recently, a contributor has opened a pull request for a symbol to add an extra pin for an exposed pad. Kerusey then suggested to statically assign the pad to a net instead of having an extra symbol. This does indeed work, but the contributor has raised the point that every time the netlist is read, the static assignments have to be set again.
First of all, is static assignment the way we should go to deal with extra pads? If so, how about making the static assignments stick through a netlist read, as long as that pin is not tied to another net in the schematic? Regards, Carl
