DRC Trace width errors???

Question

Hello, I'm having a very strange problem. I've laid out and routed a board, the DRC check comes back that every single trace width is an error. All of my trace widths are 24 mil, the Min/width spacing in the DRC is 5/5 mil. I have several other boards I have designed for this same project, all use 24 mil traces and I've run the DRC using the same .dru file with no issues. Also, if switch over from the .dru I've been using and use the default Eagle .dru I get the same results. What could be the problem?

Thanks!

Hello,

Have you changed anything in the net classes? If you have specified a different width/space requirement there it will override the DRC settings for any traces of that particular net class. Is there a chance you changed the default net class to be greater then 24mil?

I’m glad you found the problem was the net class settings and resolved the issue.

Just in case you don’t know, if you set the default net class to 0 then the DRC settings will control the minimums for all default nets.

What line width have you ised for your ground pour polygon?

Best Regards,
