Hi, I was curious to the implications of soldering directly onto a populated PCB to access the USB and TRS ports. The board is for a powermac g5 front panel and the wires would be plugged into my motherboards USB and TRS ports.
Would this be safe to do? Would power go to the other components on the PCB and interfere?
The reason for doing this is because I want to use the original ports and that i do not have a hot air station to remove the components...
Hope this is the right place to post this, but please direct me to the right place if not
