TERMINOLOGY
This development board uses option selection jumpers. A jumper is a plastic shunt that
connects 2 terminals electrically. Terminology for application of the option jumpers is as
follows:
Jumper – a plastic shunt that connects 2 terminals electrically
Jumper on, in, or installed - jumper is installed such that 2 pins are connected together
Jumper off, out, or idle - jumper is installed on 1 pin only. It is recommended that
jumpers be idled by installing on 1 pin so they will not be lost.
Cut-Trace – a circuit trace connection between component pads. The circuit trace may
be cut using a razor knife to break the default connection. To reconnect the circuit,
simply install a suitably sized 0-ohm resistor or attach a wire across the pads.
Throughout this document, where used, the name APS08QG8SLK applies equally to the
APS08QG8SLK, CSM9S08QG8SLK, and PBS08QG8SLK.
