| Nikos A.:
Hi everyone, Could someone explain me what are these gold plated circular pads and what is theis purpose? Thanks in advance Nick |
| Nusa:
Test points. Presumably for automated testing after assembly, since they're unlabeled. Only humans need labels. |
| Nikos A.:
Thank you Nusa!! |
| Nikos A.:
The automated testing requires a unique Gerber file with the Test Points in order to access these? |
| Kasper:
You can also make your own test jig to contact those pads for programming and testing. https://learn.adafruit.com/how-to-make-a-pogo-pin-test-jig |
