<jumper />

Overview​

A <jumper /> represents a small multi-pin connector, commonly a male or female header using a pinrow style footprint. You can think of it as a flexible connector that can be placed anywhere on the board much like a <chip />.

export default () => (
  <board width="10mm" height="10mm">
    <jumper name="J1" footprint="pinrow4" />
  </board>
)

The example above is adapted from the core tests.

Properties​

<jumper /> shares many of the common component properties such as pcbX, pcbY and footprint. The full TypeScript interface is defined in @tscircuit/props:

export interface JumperProps extends CommonComponentProps {
  manufacturerPartNumber?: string
  pinLabels?: Record<number | string, string | string[]>
  schPinStyle?: SchematicPinStyle
  schPinSpacing?: number | string
  schWidth?: number | string
  schHeight?: number | string
  schDirection?: "left" | "right"
  schPortArrangement?: SchematicPortArrangement
  /** Number of pins on the jumper (2 or 3) */
  pinCount?: 2 | 3
  /** Groups of pins that are internally connected */
  internallyConnectedPins?: string[][]
}

Jumpers are often placed using footprints such as pinrow8 or pinrow6_female_rows2, but you can also provide a custom <footprint /> just like with <chip />.
