The Arduino (and various 'duino brethren) have these configuration jumpers. Since these boards are built by novices I wanted to find the size jumper that they typically use. > > As for gaps, why not pull out an old unpopulated board and try a few > existing footprints? QFP, TSSOP and maybe SO have gaps in the range > you'd like to try. See what bridges well enough for your app. If I can't find out some actual dimensions that people have used or seen then it's down to the cellar ;-) Thanks.
