Basics

There are no exceptions to the following rules.

• Every net in your schematics should be named with a net label

...

• • This is crucial as it provides clear information regarding the signal you are working with during PCB layout.

  • For example, it is unclear what kind of layout considerations are required for a signal named NetLabel_C15_1

...

• • (an example automatically assigned net name)

  • Power objects count as a subset of net labels

• net names should be all caps

...

• net names should not included spaces

  • Underscores are permissible

• Default Altium Color, font, and size

...

• should be used

• net names should appear horizontal in the schematic

Power Nets

Power nets must be defined such that their regulator topology is clear. For example, the nets associated with a buck converter should have a prefix with “BUCK”.
