Summary

[edit | edit source]

The corner of a red SparkFun shield board, seen from the component side. A trace from the TX solder-jumper pad was cut by accident while another trace was being cut; it has been repaired with a short piece of green insulated wire soldered from the jumper pad to a via on the same net, with the via's solder mask scraped off.
