Erronious Innerboard outlines error

1096 7

ArcAiN6 7 years ago

**BUG** Concise problem statement: Steps to reproduce bug: 1. Create board outline 2. Place componant that extends beyond board outline (such as USB male connector) 3. Draw Copper Area Results: Error: EasyEDA does not allow inner board outlines cut-out, please use SolidRegin or HOLE Expected results: No Error. Certain componants, such as connectors quite often hang over the edge of a board, this is to allow clearance for the connector's counterpart to actually connect to it. Board mounted Male USB, femail micro usb, and female mini usb connectors are often placed with overhang so that connector housings, cases, and strain-releif do not interfere with connection, or to allow the connector to be fully seated as is intended.

This is not normally a problem in EasyEDA. Can you share an example of this issue? https://easyeda.com/Doc/Tutorial/share.htm#Sharing

Just to test to make sure it's not just that project, i created a different one, and still had the same issue. https://easyeda.com/ArcAiN6/CH340G_USB_to_Uart-c8a360edc86644ceb2c70b134bd90ac9 In this particular instance, an additional issue arises where the pins on the USB connector aren't accepting traces. If i rebuild the copper layer, the error appears If i remove the USB male connector, and rebuild the copper layers, no error appears. To me, this indicates that for whatever reason, EasyEDA is having an issue with the usb connector, or the fact that the connector extends beyond the board.

Sorry about the inconvenience this is causing you. You are correct, there is a problem with this PCB footprint. :( If you can either post a link to a detailed datasheet for the part you require or select a suitable part from the link below: http://www.te.com/commerce/DocumentDelivery/DDEController?Action=showdoc&DocId=Customer+Drawing%7F292303%7FE10%7Fpdf%7FEnglish%7FENG_CD_292303_E10.pdf%7F292303-7 and I will create a suitable PCB footprint. :?

unfortunately, those appear to be female connectors. It's not really an issue for me, as i can simply place pads and drills manually. I just figured it would be a good idea to post about it so it is known about.

You'll find `Molex 48037-2200 USB 2.0 SMD Plug` and `Multicomp USB 2.0 SMD Plug` in the library now. Search for USB 2.0 SMD Plug :)
