I have a board I've submitted to freeDFM. Their error report for that board
is at:
. https://www.freedfm.com/freedfm/0011385401921358/results/summary2.htm
The .brd file (only that file) I've made available at:
. http://www.RGMEusa.com/Misc/USBto64RW.zip
I've already addressed all the issues not related to vias in another board
version, my only remaining problem is the one concerning freeDFM's complaint
about every one of the board vias.
If you look at the freeDFM error report it appears to my eye that all the
vias have no drill and they appear to all be filled in as if they were pads
instead of vias going through all 4 layers. I've also made available a
screen shot combination picture of the board concerning just one of the via
issues (the X=0.7641", Y=2.2966" example):
. http://www.RGMEusa.com/Misc/SampleVia.jpg
It all seems ok to me so I haven't a clue as to why freeDFM is complaining.
In the combo screen shot I see it reports a drill for the example via as
0.015" and a diameter of "0.031/0.031 (auto)". I don't understand the
diameter syntax being used, meaning it looks to me like it is reporting 2
parameters separated by a "/" character. What is the definition of the 2
parameters which in the screen shot are identical to each other? If one
parameter is mathematically divided by the other the result is a zero value;
is THAT the reason freeDFM is complaining?
I need help understanding the nature of the problem and how to fix it. I did
generate the Execellon file while the board was displayed in the editor,
that's what was sent to freeDFM. TIA!
