Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM69
Tool/software:
Dear TI Support Team,
I am currently reviewing the AM69 EVM board design and noticed that there are many pins under the SoC marked as "Dummy," which are also routed out with vias.
Could you please clarify the purpose of these dummy pins and vias?
Are they used for specific functions such as PCB manufacturing, testing, or mechanical stability?
Is it safe to remove these dummy pins and the associated dummy vias in our custom board design, or would that impact the performance or reliability of the system?
Thank you in advance for your support.
Best regards,
Gary
