Re: gEDA-user: Problems with a TDSON8 footprint

[Thomas Oldbury <toldbury@xxxxxxxxx>]

   I think we'd need to see the actual PCB to know if there's a short.
   My suspicion would be that you have the fet the wrong way around or the
   pads are not assigned correctly in the footprint or symbol.

       I am using an Infineon power mosfet in a voltage converter.  I'm
       attaching the datasheet.  Pins 5 thru 8 get tied together and the
       actual footprint has a big pad that ties them together.  I'm
     attaching
       the footprint that I made also.  I'm having trouble with PCB
     making the
       big pad orange when I optimize rats.  The big pad lays across each
     pad
       for each pin.
       How can I do this?  Suggestions?  Or, since only the big pad that
     lays
       across the pads for each pin turns orange, should I just ignore
     this?
       Thanks
