Hi, Kicad noob warning (but I know electronics design) I use kicad-nightly-r31042.82a1175d72-x86_64.
Two (three) things could improve ERC messages
- I miss an electrical type to use on an internal biased pin. A pin that is ok to leave open or connect to driving signals (driven by external outputs, or resistor network). I want it to not give warnings if unconnected, or connected to an ouput, but I want warnings if connected to other inputs only.
- When I connect a power output pin only to a power symbol, and nothing else, I want to get a warning saying “power pin not connected” or similar. Todays daily does not pick this up as an issue. I think it should.
- Bonus request: I work with several digital voltage level signals on the same design. For input and output pins, I would love to be able to select reference voltage, either as wich power input pin on the symbol is referenced, or - In case of internal voltage regulator - a specified voltage level. This could make KiCad’s ERC pick up logic driven with wrong logic levels. This is VERY useful.
