solder shorting pins on arduino FTDI chip

The FTDI chip has an identifiable pin 1 and that is the pin with the dot or pit near it. If you view the board with the USB on the right and look at it from above you will find the real pin one on the bottom left of the chip.

The chip has 28 pins. Counting from the bottom left, pin 1 and going anti clockwise you will come to pin 14 on the bottom right then continuing on to pin 15 is the top right then, the end pin 28.

Now you will then find this solder bridge between pins 25 and 26. You can also see on the board copper that connects these pins together as well.

Hope this helps...
