Typical scenario:
The newly assembled prototype gizmo wouldn't start up. It took a while, but you finally found the problem with your scope, after noticing some signals had compromised logic levels. The continuity beeper confirmed the diagnosis that D7 is shorted to D6, somewhere on the PC board. All you have to do is find where the short is located. It shouldn't be too hard, since those two lines are only parallel for 15 inches, and only 4 of those inches are under chips or on inner layers . . . No problem . . . Now, where did you put that ShortSniffer?
