Re: [sdiy] AGND and DGND etc. When to bring together?

I haven't seen too many PCBs of other modulars, but they usually connect 2 GND pins at the connector, so it's just a matter of thicker wire, and better contact of the connector.

But anyway, go to www.rane.com and read their articles about grounding and shielding. Good stuff.
