You will have to do a hardware change, by physically connecting wires to those nodes (or just cutting the existing MSEL1 track and adding a wire to 3.3V). I recently had to do the same exercise on a BGA b/c i messed up the MSEL pins... not a fun exercise... Hopefully your pcb layout isn't too complicated to debug. --- Quote End --- Hello krasner, thank you for your response. The only solution for me is to desolder one pin, isolate it from its pad (maybe bend over) and solder it via to small wire to some vcc via. Unfortunally i cant cut the track because it is under the fpga. What a pitty, this is my first pcb and i really hoped it would be flawless
