Questions and answers
The loop that i need goes were the 3.3k resistor is, I'm confuse, on the bottom of this card also has 4 pairs of wires, are those wires are different loops too?
The loops associated with the Simplex 4100 circuit board that specifically require a 3.3k EOL (End-of-Line) resistor are the BGA INPUTS. These loops involve cabling that may show faults like open circuits or missing EOL resistors. The solution is to check the cabling and fit a 3.3k EOL resistor.
There is no information provided in the context about four pairs of wires on the bottom.
This answer is automatically generated
what abnormal means? is because the value of the resistor is different
