smitch Posted January 26, 2003 Author Report Posted January 26, 2003 Whats a SIL header, whats it do?Thanks Quote
ilmenator Posted January 26, 2003 Report Posted January 26, 2003 It's a connector - you can either connect a plug to it, or you might solder the cable directly to it, which can be done from the upper side of the board. Handy if your board is already mounted somewhere and you decide to add a feature afterwards. Otherwise you can leave out the SIL (Single In Line) header and solder the cable directly to the board, which is mechanically less robust.Regards, ilmenator Quote
