Jumpers. (In Gear).Who: Sumida America Sales (Rolling Meadow, IL) What: Panta Sumida Fix Jumper System--flexible flat conductor connectors Why you should care: These connectors combine the properties of flat cables and connector pins and are designed for use where electrical connections An electrical connection between discrete points allows the flow of electrons, (current). A pair of connections is needed for a circuit. Between points with a low voltage difference between them, direct current flow can be controlled by a switch. require flexibility or where electrical components are subject to vibration. Pertinent Data: These jumpers can be used for PCB PCB: see polychlorinated biphenyl. PCB in full polychlorinated biphenyl Any of a class of highly stable organic compounds prepared by the reaction of chlorine with biphenyl, a two-ring compound. (printed circuit board) to PCB connections, PCB to component connections or for entire cable harnesses. Sumida claims that the jumpers are more reliable and flexible than ribbon cable A thin, flat, multiconductor cable that is widely used for internal peripheral connections in electronic systems. In a PC, a 34-wire ribbon connects the floppy drive (if present) to the motherboard. and that there is less chance of breaking them, making them more cost effective. The company also offers SMD (1) (Storage Module Device) A high-performance hard disk interface used with minis and mainframes that transfers data in the 1-4 MBytes/sec range (SMD-E provides highest rate). See hard disk. jumpers which are designed for use with PCBs configured in a sandwich layout. More Info: Enter 8. |
