Breadboards
Workshop#08
Introduction
Prototype Board or a Solderless Veroboard is a board for
making and testing temporary electronic circuits
The board consists of several holes (also called sockets)
arranged in rows and columns
Introduction
Breadboards are a simple and
useful way to quickly assemble and
play around with different circuits.
Building circuits with a breadboard
is as simple as sticking wires and
components into the holes. The
holes themselves are connected
according to the diagram at left
Each column has 5 holes which are
connected to each other .
No connection between adjacent
columns.
In the same way, two rows have
connections, but no two rows are
connected with each other.

The connections between
holes are accomplished
through metal clips.
metal clips run through Figure: Breadboard metal clip

Veroboard
A Veroboard is expertly constructed using strips of
copper clad on a top quality board featuring a grid
pattern of holes spaced 0.1" (or 2.54mm) apart.
design allows you to solder almost any non-surface
mount ICs, resistors, capacitors onto the Veroboard.
