ECAD Library Risk: How to Prevent Costly Footprint Errors in Automotive PCBs
Well, it was just a pad! That too just a single one! So, the board looked fine and the design passed the initial DRC. Also, the prototype even powered up. But one single misaligned pad in a critical IC footprint caused a full system failure after final assembly. Consequently, the part overheated, the board failed
