My schematic has 10 same capacitors. When I generate the layout in ADS, the layout of the 10 capacitors are overlapped together. Like only one capacitor, the other 9 capacitors are exactly lay on the one capacitor.

Is there any way that the automatically generated layout has no overlapping issue? Thanks.
 

Hi,
You need to add real passive components to your schematic, which will represent Pads and traces with real dimensions, otherwise ADS doesn't know how to place the components.

If the components are connected with ordinary connection lines, it's normal.
