Description

PCB Power Trace Jumper | Surface-Mount High-Current Link

The PCB Power Trace Jumper is a surface-mount metal connection component designed to bridge PCB traces where a compact conductive path and additional board clearance are required. Available in H62 brass or high-conductivity copper, selected models feature nickel underplating and tin plating for SMT assembly.

With a catalog reference current of 20–30 A and a T-C model clearance height of 1.8 mm after soldering, this jumper provides a starting point for power PCB designs. Actual current capability and temperature rise depend on the component dimensions, PCB pads, underlying traces, soldering quality, and cooling conditions.

Product Features of PCB Power Trace Jumper

• PCB Trace Bridging: Provides a compact conductive link across selected PCB routes.
• Material Options: H62 brass or high-conductivity copper, depending on the model.
• Surface Plating: Nickel underplating and tin plating for selected configurations.
• Board Clearance: T-C series reference clearance height of 1.8 mm after soldering.
• SMT Assembly: EIA tape-and-reel packaging for compatible models; bulk packaging is also available.
• Application-Specific Selection: Current and thermal performance should be verified on the intended PCB assembly.

Design Notes: Span, Clearance and Tape

Select surface-mount PCB jumpers by span A, overall length B, width, and board clearance. For T-C models, check the reference clearance height of 1.8 mm after soldering, including underlying traces, pad positions, and insulation requirements.

Verify operating current and temperature rise on the intended PCB and cooling arrangement. Before production, also confirm the component footprint, pickup area, tape-and-reel orientation, and compatibility with the reflow process.

FAQ

1. What is a PCB Power Trace Jumper used for?

It provides a compact conductive connection across selected PCB traces or routing areas, particularly where component height and board clearance need to be considered.

2. What materials are available?

Depending on the model, material options include H62 brass and high-conductivity copper. Plating options should be confirmed against the applicable drawing.

3. Can this jumper carry 20–30 A?

The 20–30 A figure is a catalog reference for preliminary selection, not a universal guaranteed rating. Actual current capability depends on the component geometry, PCB pads and copper, solder joints, operating duration, and cooling conditions. Testing on the intended assembly is recommended.

4. Is tape-and-reel packaging available?

EIA tape-and-reel packaging is available for compatible models intended for automated SMT placement. Bulk packaging may also be available. Please confirm packaging and feeder compatibility for the selected model.

5. Can you provide drawings and compliance documents?

Dimensional drawings and applicable compliance documents can be checked for the selected model and production batch. Please share the required model or application details when requesting a quotation.
