1、原创】PADS内电层分割与铺铜一、约定软件：PADS LAYOUT 9.3（PADS2007也可以参考通用步骤）二、一般步骤多层板的分割一般步骤为：定义叠层→设置层的属性（正、负片）→分配网络→分割→铺铜。首次定义多层板的叠层结构。四层板堆叠一般为：SIG1/GND/POWER/SIG2；六层板堆叠为：① SIG1/GND/SIG2/SIG3/POWER/SIG4； ② SIG1/GND1/POWER/SIG2/GND2/SIG3；在PADS当中板层定义如下图所示： 其次，为电源层分配电源网络。 上图中强调一
2、下“Plane Type”的问题。首先从工艺角度讲，内电层实物为薄薄的铜箔。在制造流程上有“正片”和“负片”之分。在PADS LAYOUT中，内电层属性配置当中，CAM PLANE为负片属性，其他两层为正片属性。以下部分是摘自PADS help文件：· No Plane— Prevents planes from being added to the layer. The No Plane layer is available for routing. If you select No Plane, you can only create Coppe

4、te the shape/outline of the copper on this layer since it is generated automatically and covers the entire layer. This is an outmoded layer type. You can not route traces on a CAM Plane layer. Copper Pours and Plane areas can not be created on CAM Plane layers.· Split/Mixed Pla

6、. Plane areas are created on Split/Mixed plane layers and are similar to but more feature-packed than Copper Pours.简单的讲，NO PLANE自由度更大一些，除了“Plane Area”以及相关的操作命令不能用以外，我们可以在NO PLANE层进行布线、铺铜、铺铜切割、2D图形边框的绘制等常用操作。CAM Plane层只能赋予“单一网络”，可以是整片的电源也可以是地网络。在本层中，铜箔是以负片方式显示的。直观的讲，暗的区域实际为整片的铜箔
