Subject: [geda-user] Chassis ground vs Circuit ground
Reply-To: geda-user AT delorie DOT com

Hello.
    I have an Ethernet Jack with a separate chassis ground.  The grounds 
connect by zero ohm resistors beside the jack.  Supposedly this keeps 
noise from following the cable onto board.  I saw somewhere not connect 
chassis and  together on the board but though the enclosure.  The card 
with plated edges slides into a metal extrusion.  Should both edges be 
chassis ground or should one be circuit ground?   This supposedly keeps 
a DC difference from developing but dissipates noise.  What are your 
opinions about how to deal with chassis ground vs circuit ground?
~Joshua
