Add net ties
Adding net tie footprints as discussed at https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-library/pull/1472.
This is for discussion purposes right now. There should not be merged as-is. I realize the descriptions are bad, line endings are not Unix, no connecting copper, etc. I would like to discuss the following (and any other points):
- I chose
Net-Tie_{pin count}_{SMD|THT}_{pad diameter}
. Do we need to indicate pad shape? - THT pads are circular.
- They are all virtual components.
- They don't have F.Fab ref des.
- All pads are covered with mask.
- A zone will be added on front (SMD) or front and back (THT).
- SMD pads have no paste which seems fine to me.
I'm planning to add 3- and 4-pin footprints in the same pad sizes once we decide on the above, giving 12 footprints total.
