/* ERC tests :
 *  1 - conflicts between connected pins ( example: 2 connected outputs )
 *  2 - minimal connections requirements ( 1 input *must* be connected to an
 * output, or a passive pin )
 */


/*
 *  Electrical type of pins:
 *  PIN_INPUT = usual pin input: must be connected
 *  PIN_OUTPUT = usual output
 *  PIN_BIDI = input or output (like port for a microprocessor)
 *  PIN_TRISTATE = tris state bus pin
 *  PIN_PASSIVE = pin for passive components: must be connected, and can be
 * connected to any pin
 *  PIN_UNSPECIFIED = unknown electrical properties: creates always a warning
 * when connected
 *  PIN_POWER_IN = power input (GND, VCC for ICs). Must be connected to a power
 * output.
 *  PIN_POWER_OUT = output of a regulator: intended to be connected to power
 * input pins
 *  PIN_OPENCOLLECTOR = pin type open collector
 *  PIN_OPENEMITTER = pin type open emitter
 *  PIN_NC = not connected (must be left open)
 *
 *  Minimal requirements:
 *  All pins *must* be connected (except PIN_NC).
 *  When a pin is not connected in schematic, the user must place a "non
 * connected" symbol to this pin.
 *  This ensures a forgotten connection will be detected.
