User Configuration without DIP Switches or Header Pins
Benta:
I see you already use the leadframe pins, which are spring loaded (if you have the right size).
How about placing pads on both sides of the PCB on the end edges, snip off the pins of your leadframe and slide the remaining "U-clip" onto there as jumper?
LateLesley:
Why not, instead of DIP switches, use those small SMD slide switches that you can get? Are they too big??

1.27 mm dipswitchs are smaller than your pads

bson:
If you use right angle, low profile, single row headers then you should be able to fit jumpers close to flat against the board.

These are nice but I think that since they are only ON or OFF that would mean I need quite a few since a lot of my configuration is A-B or B-C rather than A-B or OPEN?
