Hello, I'm new to the Teensy family. It's a fantastic device. Great job.
I'm currently working on a project using the Teensy 3.2 that will eventually need to be poweed from VIN rather than having the USB connector plugged in. With the two pads on the bottom of the board bridged, the board runs as it should. With the trace cut between the pads, it worked once early on. I bridged the pads with solder again to do some out of circuit programming and testing. When I remove the solder bridge, I can't power the Teensy from the VIN pin. I'm using 5 volts to try and power the VIN when bridge is removed. The ground is connected to provide a common for the rest of the project regardless of whether the bridge is in place or not. If I re-bridge the pads, all works as it should. I've looked at things under a magnifier and I can't see that I've damaged anything. At this point I'm at a loss and looking for suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
