Complex SMD pad

eugeny

Hello, please help finding the solution.

I need to create a complex pad configuration with library editor. This pad will consist of two joined rectangles of different sizes. If I just create two joined/overlapping pads, DRC gives "overlap" error. How can I tell the system that these two rectangles represent one signal? Thank you!

    You can take a PAD or SMD as a basis an then use a POLYGON to draw the

    final contour of your complex pad. If the SMD or PAD is inside the

    polygon EAGLE (from v6 on) recognizes this as belonging to the same

    signal. Be sure to draw solder stop and solder paste (if any)

    separately.
