ABSTRACT:
Arcing between a connection pad of a PCB (printed circuit board) and a contact of a connector on insertion and removal of the PCB from the connector is avoided by terminating the pad before the connection edge of the PCB, and by-passing the connection with a second connection comprising another contact of the connector, another pad of the PCB extending to the connection edge of the PCB, and a series resistor. The resistor can be mounted on either the PCB or the connector.
