Check R44 if the ICs don't get power. Also, make sure it's 100 ohms and not 100k.

~4.5v at pin 1 with a load of some sort. If your circuit ends at pin 1, I'm not sure how the loading of your DMM would construe the...

I feel that this style is the most reliable of them all, but it needs a bit more space than other designs:

I doubt LCSC is sourcing them from eBay.
