PCB Jumpers & Shunts
PCB jumpers and shunts are miniature components crucial in printed circuit board (PCB) design. Jumpers, typically small metallic pins, bridge connections on the board, allowing users to customize circuit configurations. They offer flexibility in establishing or bypassing connections, facilitating debugging or accommodating design changes. Shunts, often shorting blocks with a removable jumper, serve a similar purpose by creating temporary connections. Both components enhance circuit versatility, enabling efficient testing and modification. Their compact design ensures minimal space consumption on the PCB, making them indispensable for intricate electronic layouts where adaptability and customization are paramount.
