I have a PCB that needs a “jumper” between 2 pads to complete a selectable circuit (4 configurations). The pad size is 1.9 x .75 mm with a gap of .45 mm. Can we jumper this gap utilizing a solder bridge and still be compliant to the standard? We contacted the OEM tech support center and they recommend a solder jumper to configure their boards, but I need some feed back concerning meeting the IPC specifications. We are presently utilizing a 30 gauge wire to bridge this gap, but I am concerned about the integrity of the wire and solder joint. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thx, Tom Glum
