Hi,

I have a integrity check error on my unused pin of a IC component.
"Ignoring PCB only pad U5.1 on net"

The IC has 8 pins but only use 3. 5 pins are useless.

Anybody know how do I resolve this error?

Thank you.


Best Regards

Is this in Schematic or Layout, and do you mean Design Rule Check? Also depends on how you have designed the component.

Tools=> Design Rule Check. Then tick/untick boxes "net pin with no connection and/or Pin not on a Net. Be care ful as this can also mask real errors. What you have is a warning, not an error.

You have connected an unused pin on your footprint (e.g a mounting hole) to a net in your pcb layout either by mistake or intentionally.

Simply go to U5.1 and disconnect it from the net.
