Protel autorouting track width

Mar 09, 2005 1 Replies

I setup PCB Rules for larger track widths that apply to six power nets, however the autorouter will not recogonize this and makes all tracks the same narrower width.



What am I doing wrong in the Situs router setup?


Thanks,



Ivan



Ivan, Your error is in trying to use the Situs router at all. 8^>

How can you expect an essentially free module of software to do something of real value? Depending on your design type, even a Cooper Chyan (Cadence) router may be of limited usefulness but costs more money than DXP's whole suite. In a lot of ways Ivan, I am not kidding. The rules generation and which rules are followed by the router mean that predictable and acceptable results are very unlikely.
