Pogo pins power clarification - reading schematics

[dsimic]

Maybe the R7 and R8 are "jumpers" because you're supposed to populate which one you want to use? Yeah, based on all the time we've spent analyzing this, I personally would never short DCIN and USB-5V together like that :-)

That BOM also lists R6, R7, and R8 as "jumpers", which I take it means 0-ohm resistor. I hope that you're supposed to only populate one or the other of R7 or R8, or else I hope that we're wrong about how the pogo pins work.

You're right, R8 actually isn't populated in the picture of an actual PineEye board.  However, the documentation or the schematic of the PineEye should provide a clear description of the resistors used as power source selectors, or anyone actually making a PineEye risks damaging their PinePhone.

So far, it seems that we're on the right track when it comes to decyphering the purpose of the pogo pins.
