Hello everyone,

i became an error in the connection GND - Capacitor ( Lesson 1 at 37:26): Net GND has only one pin (Pin C?-1).



How can this be solved?

Hello George,

I think one of the pins of the capacitor symbol is placed in the wrong direction, try to flip the pin

Hello Faisal,

thanks for your comment.
Unfortunately the pins are placed correct (show screenshot).

Thanks for your reply,
George

Maybe you only placed 1 GND symbol? It says: Net GND has only 1 pin ... means, there is only 1 pin connected to GND net? Try to place another GND symbol also on different pin.

That's it Robert thank you.

But why need I 2 GND Pins connected in AD 20.3.6 and not 1 like in AD19?
It is because the ISL-Chip has GND-Pins too?

Regards,
George

Normally you always have at least two pins connected to a net. If you only have 1 pin connected to a net .... that really may be an error. Why would you want to connect 1 pin to a net if it is connected nowhere else?

PS: Maybe that error type was switched off in ad19 and disabled from checking?
