Abstract:
The electrical circuit can include a line circuit portion having a number of shared resistor pads, where each shared resistor pad is electrically coupled to an electrically conductive line lead, where the electrically conductive line lead carries a voltage capable of operating an electrical load. The electrical circuit can also include a load circuit portion comprising a number of unshared resistor pads. The electrical circuit can further include at least one zero ohm resistor electrically coupled to at least one shared resistor pad. The at least one zero ohm resistor can be configurable after manufacturing the printed circuit board. The load circuit portion can be electrically isolated from the line circuit portion in the absence of the at least one zero ohm resistor being further electrically coupled to at least one unshared resistor pad.
