Do these need to be user-changed, or are these something set once during manufacturing. If the latter, you can use solder jumpers. I started experimenting with this idea a few years ago, and think I've got the size and shape figured out pretty well now. The jumper is a disk of copper split up the middle with a gap and soldermask over the gap. With the right size disk and gap, it's very easy to switch the jumper between open and closed with a soldering iron. After putting a medium glob of solder on the two pads, a swipe with the soldering iron one way bridges the gap and the other way opens it. I have attached the Eagle script for this jumper package exported from my connectors library. part 2 181 bytes content-type:text/plain; name="ATT00001.txt" (decoded base64) -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
