PWR_FLAG vs input pin on 4027 JK FF
« on: January 18, 2018, 12:35:48 pm »
I've got a 4027 which I've tied both Sd to ground on. gnd is marked with PWR_FLAG. This is an input pin in theory but the ERC is showing error as follows:



Schematic:



In theory the Sd pin should be both grounded and both inputs.

Any ideas how to proceed on this one to pass the ERC? Is this a bug in the symbol i.e. the pin should be an input?

Edit library... Change the state of that pin

That did the trick. Bug in kicad library then!

Thank you :)

The fact you ground them for your application doesn't make this a bug.  The data sheet I'm looking at says "1SD, 2SD
 9, 7 asynchronous set-direct input (active HIGH)".  Why would the library list it as a power pin?

Page 6. IC schematic. Definitely inputs. Were marked as outputs in library.

I found several issues like this when I reworked the CMOS library, it should be fixed in the latest version.
