One end of the second branch path is connected to a sampling end portion or a portion of the first branch path except the first fusing zone, the other end of the second branch path is spaced apart from the sampling end portion and the first branch path. In the sampling process of the circuit board, a first pad transmits a collected signal to an external controller via the sampling end portion, the first branch path and an outputting end portion of the sampling circuit. When the first fusing zone of the first branch path is melted and interrupted (at this time the sampling end portion and the outputting end portion of the sampling circuit are disconnected), because the sampling circuit is further provided with the second branch path, the circuit board can be quickly repaired by means of the second branch path and the second pad to make electrical connection between the sampling end portion and the outputting end portion conducted during the return repair of the circuit board, thereby achieving the purpose of reusing the circuit board.
