Just imagine a missing dot on a 2.2ohm inrush limiter and someone puts a

The way I work a missing dot would get caught at LVS (layout versus
schematic), the netlists wouldn't match.


Well, yes, same here. But that doesn't help the poor guy who reads a
faded schematic and thinks, wow, I've got that 22ohms right here.


This is where the 'European' scheme wins hands down.


So how do they write 2.2 Ohms?
