# EEPROM header J7 may be unnecessary ## Problem environment Considering the rich toolset available in new Raspberry Pi hosts and the Raspberry Pi OS, it's probably no needed to populate a EEPROM header for use with a serial programmer. ## Steps to reproduce 1. Refer to the schematic 1. Locate the header J7 ## Expected result The J7 header is needed to program the EEPROM U6/U7. ## Actual result It is unknown how useful or necessary the J7 header would be. ## Severity level This is **low priority** because even if the header is unnecessary it may help during research work.
