off grid error

if your snap settings are not multiple of manufacturing grid specified in the technlogy file.

offgrid error

It might also happen because the grid you used might be smaller than the grid given in the design rules.

off grid error layout

but it is just the view type settings

we can change it after he design is over bcz

we can look more clearly while designing so that it would be accurate

Do the scale and resolution in the DRC and LVS mean the manufature grip?



Have nice days

eagle off grid error

If ur layout grid space (usuallu multiple of 0.01) is not multiple of foudary specified snap to grid space ,U will get the off grid errors.

For example ,If ur foudary specified snap to grid space is say 0.005 and ,if u set the snap to grid in ur layout editor as 0.01 then u will get the off grid errors.

For example ,If ur foudary specified snap to grid space is say 0.005 and ,if u set the snap to grid in ur layout editor as 0.01 then u will get the off grid errors.

0.01um is bigger than 0.005um grid . will it be off grid error?

0.01 is not error infact 0.001 would be a problem.

First, you should acquaint yourself with the design rule layout grid specified by the foundry, then specify your snap spacing multiple of that.

Please, could anybody explain me what means “1x"?

Thanks very much,

It just means "one times", i.e. the shown distance of your grid dots or lines should be 1 * layout_grid_size.

Re: LAYOUT GRID ERROR

Suppose the grid settings in DRM is secified as .1u and you design the layout using o.o5.Later because you found out that the grid should have been .1, you change the settings to .1.
You will not be able to select the edge of some layers since your cursor will move .1 u each time.So you will not be able to select the features which fall between the new grid.
This is off grid errors.
For that you will have to select all layout and do a sna to grid.
