ERF Variable

Description

v_max_shaves_to_surface

Value in units.

Controls the number of shaves versus surfaces or arcs.

Controls the number of shaves that will be placed to get the coverage value. If the optimal coverage value is achieved before reaching the maximum number of shaves allowed, shaving is stopped.

If, after placing the maximum number of shaves the optimal coverage value is not reached, the action will test what coverage value was achieved. If it reached the minimal coverage value, the clearance will be reported in the Optimal clearance only category. If the distance between the clearance and the surface or arc is less than the minimal coverage value, it will be reported in the Violations (Minimal) category by the distance segment between the relevant pad in the Signal layer and the surface.

Note: High values for v_max_shaves_to_surface increases run time.
