Issue dossier

In the published CC14 power schematic, R3, the LED current-limit resistor, used a library symbol whose value read 330 while its manufacturer and LCSC part numbers pointed to a 330 kOhm resistor. A November 6, 2026 commit moved R3 to a 330 Ohm part, and the Common Library renamed the symbol.

BOM resistor part mismatch · designer repository commits · corrected in published design files on 2026-11-06

A BOM order placed from the design files before November 6 could have bought 330 kOhm resistors for R3. The commit calls CC14 an already-shipped generation but does not say which value was fitted on the event badges, so no defect on shipped badges is claimed.

fix(bom): swap R3 off mislabeled R_330k_1206 onto Device:R_Small_US

Primary designer source, committed November 6, 2026 by Kevin Bennett, for the R3 LED current-limit resistor correction in CAD/Power.kicad_sch: the old symbol's value read 330 while its part numbers (YAGEO AC1206JR-07330KL, LCSC C229929) were a 330 kOhm part; R3 is now sourced as a 330 Ohm UNI-ROYAL 1206W4F3300T5E (LCSC C17930). The commit calls CC14 an already-shipped generation.
