My name is Yeshwanth, a graduate student of New Mexico State University. I was working on my first pcb design as a part of Master’s Thesis. I’m using the Eagle software to design my PCB but i was getting errors when i do DRC to my entire design. The errors are clearance and width errors, these errors are popping up even i try to draw a trace width of about 8mils(which is greater than minimum width). I was wondering whether any one of you guys will be helpful in resolving my errors.

Thanks,

Sincerely,
Yeshwanth
 

Go to the clearance tool dialog and change the setting to something your PCB manufacturer will accept, maybe 6 mil?



Sometimes, a manufacturer will work with you. For example, Oshpark will accept a clearance error if it makes sense (e.g, a via in a pad that is connected to ground).

go to edit>>design rules and go to clearance tab,there you can give min. clerance value.

for width go to edit>>Net classes
