Is this a test?

No jokes about it (as far as I know...), SmashTV has designed a new board with less bridges:

Isn't the hole life a test ;D

If your talking about the red line, thats a jumper, if your talking about "10k" thats a resistor mounted vertically.

... A few seconds thought later...

Oh.. Wait, now I get it... there isn't a need for a jumper there... odd.. Perhaps Tim has some reason.

Whoa horsey!  ;D

Thats not my layout in the pic, but it did look like that before I slapped it around a bit. ;)

After a bit of trace tetris I ended up with this:

It's not that I really have anything against jumpers, but I do find some twisted pleasure in eliminating them from board layouts.

Every board layout I do has "smashtv" somewhere on the copper side, I can't answer for any others......but you can see why I decided to make a new set of layouts before I started producing these boards.

Best!
