This question came up recently, and I'm unfamiliar with the practice.
A circuit was described to me that has a "few" traces going between
components, and then they go off the last (first?) component a "certain"
distance then tie to ground. Sound familiar? This "certain" distance is to
be determined during routing, and then the three or four (or more) traces
will be "adjusted" accordingly to satisfy the circuits function.
First off, this makes no sense to me.
Secondly, is there a preferred way to tie these traces to ground, and
what methods have been used to "trick" the software package you're
using into doing this (other than showing them as ground signals)?
Any help is appreciated.
