Rule Classification: Binary

Summary

This rule operates at a net level in the design to flag any open-ended track/arc primitive, or open-ended track/arc that is terminated with a via, and thus forms an antenna. The specified value is the set tolerance of how long a stub must be before the rule will flag an error. Default for this rule is set to 0.

Constraints

Net Antennae Tolerance - maximum allowed length of unconnected track primitives

How Duplicate Rule Contentions are Resolved

All rules are resolved by the priority setting. The system goes through the rules from highest to lowest priority and picks the first one whose scope expression(s) match the object(s) being checked.

Rule Application

Online DRC and Batch DRC.
