I get ERC error "pin not driven" what should I do?

[11112]

Hi, so i am recently working on my pcb. I made the circuit using Ltspice and trying to make one on kicad so it works out. I think I drew the right circuit on Kicad but when i run the “Electrical rules checker” , “Pin connected to other pins, but not driven by any pin.” this message pops out. (pin 1 (power input) of component #PWR03 is not dirven (Net1).

I uploaded the photo of the circuit so if there are any advice, it would be great!

ErrType(3): Pin connected to some others pins but no pin to drive it

Additional reading about pin types in general: https://forum.kicad.info/t/electrical-type-of-schematic-symbol-pins/9439 A good explanation about power symbols can be found in this stackexchange answer by @Seth_h KiCad does check if every component is connected to supply lines (*1) as a missing supply is a common mistake to make. Getting the error “ErrType(3): Pin connected to some others pins but no pin to drive it” means that KiCad thinks that some supply pin is not properly connected. Eithe…

Electrical type of schematic symbol pins (KiCad 4 and KiCad 5)

What are electrical types used for? The electrical type is used by the electrical rule check (ERC) to determine if you made an obvious mistake. ERC is really quite limited. All it does is read all electrical types of pins connected to a particular net and check their combination against the error matrix. Example: By default connecting two output pins together will result in an error. (Makes sense as one output can be high and one can be low resulting in a short circuit between the positive supp…

I hope this helps

p.s. Your GND and +5V are shortcircuit and the gate of your transistor is always grounded.

@der.ule

and the gate of your transistor is always grounded.

May be LEDs are used as opto receivers

General tips:

• A headline should be representative of what you want. “I need help” is useless as you would not make a post if you would not need help.
• Clean up the schematic. (Why is the 5V power symbol rotated to have the wire through its middle? Why are the GNDs placed such that there is a crossing necessary? …)

Also your circuit looks like it coud never function. You have a short between GND and +5V.
