Clearance error between mounting holes and ground plane

2757 4

Maharshi Vision Team 5 years ago

Hi, I am getting clearance error when I run DRC check on my layout. The clearance limit on DRC settings window is set to 0.152 mm and my copper pour has clearnace setting of 0.254. There are no net around my M3 mounting hole still this error appears. I have 6 such holes on my board and all are giving errors. None of the holes have tracks or any other component interfering within the defined limits. Not sure exactly why this error appears. ![DRCError.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/vKn6Qumj8mQ1MBkJ5JxpwkPQazuRqtSDNqx4kZhp.png)

Your project is private so only you can see it. It looks like you have place a hole and a pad coaxially. Do one and only one of: 1. If you want an unplated hole with no copper, place a **Hole** from the Hole Tool; 2. If you want an unplated hole with a copper annulus, place a **MultiLayer Pad** from the Pad Tool and select **Plated = No;** 3. If you want an through-plated hole with a copper annulus, place a **MultiLayer Pad** from the Pad Tool and select **Plated = Yes.**

Don't forget to put the holes into the schematic so they don't get deleted when you do update PCB... :)

Thanks @andyfierman. You were right, I had placed a hole and a pad on top of each other. Removed the hole and error was gone.

Ok I know that this is irrelevant at this point but I just have to say it. Once you have placed the mounting holes where you wish, just re-pour the GND copper and whatever other copper areas you have. It should work then. If not, just use any fireman's method or you can make a _rect_ around the mounting hole and set it's attribute `fill`to `no` and there will be no pour in that area!
