Cable / IO

[gregcope]

Hi All,

Any advice on how to attach Cables? 

The largest current on one cable is 600ma @5v.  The rest are just switches and LEDs.  With all the GNDs I have 11 cables

Screw terminals take up a bit of board space
JST seem to be smaller, but with very small cables (that also have to be attached to the peripherals)
Molex seem large

Presently I am using screw terminals - about to move to pluggable ones.

What do others favour?

I love those green thumb-press terminals used in the CurrentRanger. They are very easy and quick to use and are rated at 16A.
Otherwise you're left with soldering if you want to avoid headers/terminals of any kind.
