Problem with polygon and component
saeednowroozi , 05-16-2018, 07:14 AM
Hi,
I designed a board with smd and dip component and covered the entire surface with polygons(GND). Now I do not want to be inside a polygon. Is there a way?

Hi alferdvidal,
want to avoid entering polygons in some parts of the environment when I draw a polygon. Inside the photo, I showed resistors for this. A polygon should not be created between the resistance pads.I hope, well explained.

I never draw GND polygon on my signal layers (you really need to understand what you are doing, otherwise it can make your layout worse - especially EMC/EMI properties of the layout), so I am not sure how other people do it. But, I believe, if you do not want GND flow between component pads, you may need to add keepout area into the footprint under your component.
