Explanation:
'circuit' here might be better rendered by another term thanh the obvious literal one.

Not quite sure how to say 'looking back', but I strongly advocate avoiding a direct literal translation!

Knowing more about the actual circuit would probably be a help in finding the best wording — in particular, what specific function (if any) these points A & B may have?
