IsJumperComponent

Parent page: PCB Query Functions - Attribute Checks

Summary

Returns component objects whose Component Type property is Jumper. These components are used to include wire links in a PCB design, for example on a single-sided PCB that cannot be fully routed on one layer. For this component type the component footprint and pins are synchronized between the schematic and PCB but the net assignments are not, and the component is included in the BOM. As well as selecting this option at the component level, both of the pads in the component must have their JumperID set to the same non-zero value. Jumper type components do not need to be wired on the schematic, they only need to be included on the schematic if they are required in the BOM. If they are not required in the BOM they can be placed directly in the PCB, where the Component Type is set, the JumperIDs are set, and the Nets manually assigned for the pads.

Syntax

IsJumperComponent : Boolean/Boolean_String

Returns all component objects whose Component Type property is set to Jumper.

Not IsJumperComponent
IsJumperComponent = False
