A method and software product evaluate vias, per pad, in an electronic design.
One or more via per pad rules are formulated, and then the electronic design is
processed to determine whether the vias of the electronic design violate the via
per pad rules. In the event of a violation, one or more indicators are generated
to identify vias that violate the via per pad rules. The indicators are visual
indicators (e.g., via per pad DRCs) on a graphical user interface, and/or a textual
report summarizing violations.
