![]() If both plated and non-plated pads exist in a design, the non-plated holes will be set to use different tools from the plated holes in the NC drill files. Plated - this option determines whether or not the pad has a plated hole.The Net property of a primitive is used by the Design Rule Checker to determine if a PCB object is legally placed. Select No Net to specify that the pad is not connected to any net. Change the net assignment by clicking in the field then choosing a net from the drop-down list. ![]() Net - the net to which the pad is currently assigned.Set the Layer to Multi-Layer to define a pad shape on all signal layers. Pads can be assigned to any available layer. Layer - the layer to which the pad is currently assigned.Note that multiple pads within the same component footprint can share the same designator, if required. Edit the value in this field to change the pad designator. If the designator begins or ends with a number, the number will auto-increment when placing a series of pads sequentially. Free pads can include a designator or the field can be left empty. The designator can be up to 20 characters in length and cannot include any spaces. If the pad is part of a component, the designator is usually set to the corresponding component pin number. Designator - the current pad designator. ![]()
