Jumper Wires

Jumper wires are short lengths of insulated cables that are used for a variety of purposes in both commercial and industrial applications. They are a great way to bridge connections between electronic components or to provide temporary connections between two circuit boards. A jumper wire is basically a length of insulated wire with metal connectors on both ends. The connectors can be used to make connections between components or wires, or for bridging a break in a circuit.

Jumper wires are commonly used in the development and prototype phase of designing electronic circuits. For example, they are often used in breadboard circuits. Jumper wires are used to connect different components on the circuit, such as capacitors, transistors, and resistors. They are also used to connect two parts of a circuit together, such as a power supply and logic gate. In essence, jumper wires help to bridge the gap between components or two parts of a circuit.

Jumper wires are generally constructed from stranded copper wire that is insulated with a flexible PVC sheath. They are available in different lengths and in a variety of insulation colors. The most common colors are red, black, and yellow.

Pre-Crimped Leads

Pre-crimped leads are typically used to quickly-connect electronic components together. They are also known as lead wires and are commonly used in electrical and electronic engineering applications. A pre-crimped lead is a length of stranded copper wire that is attached to a connector.

The wire is typically insulated with a plastic or rubber sleeve and the connector can be used to attach the wire to an electronic component. Pre-crimped leads are available with a variety of connectors, such as banana plugs, alligator clips, spade connectors, and more. They are also available in different lengths and insulation colors.

Pre-crimped leads are preferred in applications where there is a need for quick-connections. For example, in prototype development, pre-crimped leads are often used in testing circuits or components. They are also preferred in timesensitive applications, such as repairs or upgrades, as they are very easy to use and require no soldering.

Pre-crimped leads are also very popular in the hobbyist community as they are a great way to quickly and easily create custom wire harnesses. By connecting different types of connectors together, the pre-crimped leads can be used to easily connect electronic components.
