Re: gEDA-user: netlist PCB
Hy Phil, thanxs a lot for this information. I found a orange pad. And now its fine. cu michael On May 13, 2010, at 12:54 AM, phil wrote: Michael Theurl wrote: is there a way to check the pcb net's to find unused, shorted or strange net's ?

gEDA-user: netlist PCB
Hello List, I have some strange behavior with the pcb to routing net's. On the DRC check it is all fine but the Yellow Rat lines do some shorting stuff. in the PCB layout. And i'am wondering why this comes together. If i check the project.net file it looks all fine ? there are no shorts !! is there a way to check the pcb net's to find unused, shorted or strange net's ? Like a electric test from/to the .pcb = .sch files ? i use the following version: PCB version 20091103 gEDA/gschem version 1.6.0.20091004 On a Mac os X 10.6.3 thanx's a lot michael -- [] this Email is made of 100% Recyclable elektrons [] url : www.smog.at [] mailto : michael.the...@smog.at [] key: www.smog.at/key ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
Re: gEDA-user: netlist PCB
PCB's DRC doesn't check the netlist, the o key (optimize rats) does. Rat lines aren't copper, they can't short anything. DRC only checks for copper spacing rules, not connectivity. If you're using a schematic, you should already have a netlist from gnetlist. The o key compares that current netlist with the current connectivity and reports any errors. ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
