PCB Routing Assistance


Set the copper keepout/minimum keepout to 0.25 mm across traces/pads/vias/fills/nets, which controls spacing to the GND pour. Quick DRC still reports 4 pre-existing/open airwire issues, but no copper-overlap warnings were returned from the checked categories.
thank you, now can you add thermal relief to all top and bottom GND pads?
I’ll apply relief-connect thermal relief to GND-connected pads on the top and bottom copper layers, then run a quick DRC check for copper/airwire issues.
Applied thermal relief to the targeted GND/DGND/VSS pads on the board: Relief connect, 4 spokes, 0.25 mm spoke width, 45° spoke angle. The follow-up check shows airwire errors on GND-related pads/fill stitching, so the pour may need repour/reroute cleanup next; I did not change placement or routing.
Hey, there are a lot of nets that have "GND" in their name, can you connect anything with "GND" in its net name to the main GND connection?
I’ll find every net whose name contains “GND”, merge those into the main GND net in the schematic, then run ERC/DRC connectivity checks to catch any remaining split grounds.
I checked the schematic netlist and there are no separate “GND” nets to merge: everything ground-related is already on the main ^GND net, including DGND-labeled pins. The remaining GND/DGND items are PCB airwires to ground pads/fill/stitch vias, so the next fix would be repouring/rerouting GND copper rather than changing schematic connectivity.
