Gold Plated circular pads
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.
