Boardview for the Dell Inspiron 5480 based on the Wistron board 17859-1, in a 21.8 MB RAR archive. The BRD format is usually opened with OpenBoardView, FlexBV or similar viewers. It shows component placement, part references, net names and test points on both sides of the PCB, which helps locate parts, trace a rail and isolate a short. Wistron numbers its Dell boards with a five-digit project code and a revision suffix, so check the number silkscreened on your board against 17859-1.
