Subject: [geda-user] How to identify nc pads in tsym files
From: Richard Hughes <hughsient AT gmail DOT com>
To: geda-user AT delorie DOT com

Hi,

I'm dealing with a QFN16 package where the middle "pin" is used as a
signal. The only way to get to the middle pin is a via (not sure this
is a good idea...), or I can trivially use an nc pin on the package to
get to the center.

In the tsym file I'm just commenting out the nc pins with a # at the
start of the line, but this gives me a conflict when I check for
unrouted signals in pcb. Should I be doing something different in the
tsym file so that I notify pcb that the pin really is unconnected from
anything internal and free to use for routing?

Thanks,

Richard.
