Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] NETS

2011-02-19 by rrrydman@aol.com

Hi Randy,
My understanding of nets is that they are "networks'. A trace that goes from one pin to another is a net. Another third pin to a different pin is another net. Either of these nets might branch to yet another pin and that would still be on that respective net. An entire board will have many nets. Starting a new trace and connecting it to an existing net will require you to specify the net number you are connecting to. This can be determined by puting the cursor on the intended net and clicking  and inspecting properties of that net .. or it might be shown somewhere on the screen for that selected net. ummmm hope this helps.
Bob R.
