Abstract
A system may include an input engine and a void avoidance engine. The input engine may access an electronic circuit design of an electronic design automation (EDA) tool as well as identify a first net and a second net in the electronic circuit design. The void avoidance engine may perform a void avoidance verification scan to determine whether the first net, the second net, or both, are within a threshold distance from any voids in the electronic circuit design. The void avoidance engine may also generate a double violation alert responsive to a determination that the first net and the second net are both within the threshold distance from a particular void in the electronic circuit design and that the first net and the second net are located on different sides of the same plane of the electronic circuit design.
