QUESTION ------------ The PCB is a 2 layer board. Even though the PCB has 2 layers there are no tracks on the TOP layer. There are just 2 jumpers. Can someone tell me why they prefer to use 2 jumpers instead of 2 tracks? Thanks, Enrico Migliore

They want to attract more people to use their IC,in my opinions,because many power supply companies use single layer board in order to save product cost.
