To audit KiCad DRC JSON reports, you process the output file to detect shorts, unconnected pads, dangling vias, and clearance violations. This structured analysis classifies violations and provides root-cause recommendations to guide fixes.
A full KiCad DRC audit analyzes the JSON output to identify shorts, unconnected nets, and via dangling issues that custom scripts miss. It classifies these electrical violations and pinpoints root causes like pad-net assignment gaps.
Yes, the audit relies on the KiCad DRC JSON report format. It applies to boards containing KiCad PCB files and parses the JSON output to surface clearance problems and silk or copper interactions.
To classify KiCad DRC violations, you analyze the DRC JSON report to categorize shorts, unconnected items, and clearance problems. The audit identifies root causes such as pad-net assignment gaps and proposes actionable fixes.
Yes, a KiCad DRC audit is used during PCB validation and production readiness. It detects layout and electrical violations, producing actionable reports and remediation guidance to ensure hardware reliability.
Custom scripts often lack comprehensive DRC coverage for via dangling and copper interactions. A full KiCad DRC audit applies the native JSON report to surface these missed clearance problems and classify electrical violations.
