Jul 26, 2017 at 16:37 comment added Neil_UK @glen_geek The last 6GHz design I worked on had footprints for 0402 1k resistors and U.FL SMD coax sockets on the layout, but they were only populated on the prototypes and trial batch. When they'd been added to a production board to probe, we only bothered to remove the resistor, left the socket in place. There were still places we'd thought we wouldn't need to probe, so tombstoning was used as well.
Jul 26, 2017 at 16:13 comment added glen_geek Seems like a nice compromise to avoid $$$diff-probe. Would you add these 1k resistors to a production board? Or only add tombstoned 1k resistors for testing a prototype?
