LM2698ADJ-MM Ultralibrarian Schematics/Footprints

Tanzim Kawnine68

Hello ppl

I am designing a PCB using altium. In my design, I am having a LM2698MM-ADJ which I have downloaded using Ultralibraian software from the Texas Instrument.
Now I have uploaded a picture of part of PCB layout. There are two things I cannot understand properly since I am new to Altium. In the picture, I can see that the pads are having green circles with cross in them without me changing any dimensions of the footprint, which means I am using what the Ultralibraian software provided. Now I believe that can fixed in the design rule but I dont know where exactly I am suppose to edit that.

The second one is the one which I have circled with Dark Red color. What are these and how to get rid of that?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tanzim,

The portions you circled are part of your "rat's nest", and will disappear when you route those nets.

You can modify your deisign rules at menu Design|Rules. You may first want to right click over one of the pads and select Violations from the pop-up menu to learn what rule is being violated. Then you know which one to modify, or category in which to add a new rule.

Regards, Oliver

Thanks for your reply.
Regarding the ratsnest, its the parallel lines, which are circled in dark red, I dont understand. Because when I am drawing the line between the components, the ratsnest is disappearing but not the parallel lines.

Try re-run your Design Rule Check. Those are unrouted net violations and they should go away if you routed the net.
