2016-02-26 More about shorts

  • Further tests. Shortage still exists.
  • Short is not on the PCB. Appears after solder.
  • Found that the RECOM component was designed to be upside down – need to resolder it. Luckily it was a via component.
  • This would not be the source of the short anyhow.
  • EF recommends that we burn 10A on the 5V plane to see which component would burn.. hmm i’m quite shy to do this :p
  • Documenting the issue on github.
  • Sending back boards to EF.
