Title: Solder bridge on C9 and C10?
Post by: ddld on June 10, 2024, 12:12:59 PM

Hi,

When you solder the big capacitors C9 and C10 it is very difficult to avoid a solder bridge between one of the pins and the adjacent unused holes. Should I do my best to remove them, or is it harmless, and better to leave it this way?

I've marked the two bridges in the image below:

Yes harmless. These pads are already connected together. They are only there to allow the use of capacitors having a different distance between pins.

That's what I hoped :) 

Thanks!
