SMT Jumpers (links) | 2 May, 2000

We're looking for a source of SMT links (Jumpers) 8mm - 10mm(.312in -.4in)long, capable of being placed by Panasonic MV2 series or MPA machines. Does anyone manufacture a feeder that creates links on demand?

Peter: This isn't what you asked for (I think), but it may be neater.

Source of SMT links (jumpers): Most resistor suppliers make zero ohm resistors. Size � 8mm - 10mm (.312in -.4in) long: Most resistor suppliers package these resistors in common SMT chip packages. So, if you�re talking jumper lengths other than common package sizes, consider moving your pads. Capable of being placed by Panasonic MV2 series or MPA machines: Can do!! Feeder manufacturer: Panasert would love to sell you feeders.

Good luck Dave F

Thanks Dave, we already use zero ohm resistors. What we're looking for is a flexible (bendable) jumper.

Peter: How about a SMT test point?

E-Mark (0603 0805) 273 Canal St Suite 414 shelton CT 06484 800.831.5383 www.e-markinc.com OXLEY (round test point gold color but difficult to pickup) Component Corp (loop ~ size of 1206 silver color works fine)

Good luck Dave F
