I'm designing a PCB using Altium and I have 3 signals that I want use in different layers:
- 5Vcc
- 3Vcc
- GND
Initially, using Polygon Pour, I made GND planes at the top and bottom layers. However, as the complexity growth I decided to add aditional two, 3Vcc and 5Vcc, so that I would acess them through vias from top and bottom to 5Vcc and 3.3Vcc. This is my goal.
The doubts started when I saw at Layer Stack Manager, two buttons: "Add Layer" and "Add Plane"
I tried to add two internal layers, 5Vcc_layer and 3Vcc_Layer, I assigned to them 5Vcc and 3Vcc nets respectivelly. However, all the vias that I used to connect top or bottom to one of them(3Vcc or 5Vcc) appears as unrouted. The same happens when I added internal planes instead of internal layers.
- What the difference between Internal Layer and Internal Plane ?
- What should I do to reach my goal ?
