Thank you for the speedy response Gerald. The PCB files used were those contained in Beaglebone_blackrevB4_MFG.zip
Is it likely the holes were deliberately under-sized to the datasheet to give the tight fit you mention. I am yet to see the problem physically for myself. The PCB supplier is sending the board to me so I can assess. On Tuesday, 18 February 2014 13:43:18 UTC, Gerald wrote: > > We don't have any issues.
