R5 pullup

Post by moses_410 »

Hey, when performing the R5 pull up hack for v 1.1 one end of the resistor goes to the + terminal of the battery and one end is in one of the original R5 holes. Which hole should it be in? the one with the double-ring around it or the one with the single ring? thanks

let me check. you can always just follow the traces. one goes to ground and one goes to the USB middle pin

no the DOUBLE RING goes to ground
the SINGLE RING goes to the usb pin

if you look carefully at the traces you will see one goes to the USB port
to verify this

you want the resistor to go from the SINGLE RING to +3V
