v_handle_non_standard_pads
|
Enables you to define what non-standard pads, if any, you
wish to handle. Yes = Handles non-standard pads, according to procedures
below. No = action does not handle non-standard pads. A standard pad is a round or square pad. There are two kinds
of non-standard pads: * Semi-standard pads
- Those are pads that Genesis is familiar with. They do not need special
symbols to be represented. * Non-standard pads -
Those are pads that Genesis is not familiar with and do need special
symbols to be represented. v_handle_non_standard_pads
has three optional modes: * Don't handle
non-standard pads * Handle only
semi-standard and standard pads * Also handle
non-standard pads v_handle_non_standard_pads
affects the DFM action in two ways: * 1. Reroutes traces
against non-standard pads. Previously, the action rerouted line only against
standard pads. Now you can also reroute lines for non-standard pads. * 2. Enlarge
non-standard pads to achieve AR. Previously, only standard pads were enlarged in order to
achieve AR. Now you can also enlarge semi-standard or non-standard pads. After enlargement, Genesis tries to change the non-standard
pad to a semi-standard pad. Only if that fails will Genesis create a new
non-standard pad (Construct Pad). |
