Breadboard 830p

In a breadboard, you can prototype your circuits quickly without the need to solder the
connections. You can see below an example of a breadboard.

These breadboards have various sizes and configurations. The simplest is just a grid of holes in
a plastic block, where strips of metal inside provide electrical connection between the holes in
the shorter rows. If you push the legs of two different components into the same row, they will be
joined together electrically. The deep channel running down the middle indicates a break in
connections there, which means placing a chip in with the legs at either side of the channel
does not connect them together.

Some breadboards have two strips of holes (also called rails) running along the long edges of
the board separated from the main grid, with strips running down the length of the board inside
that enable you to connect to the voltage source.

While breadboards are great for prototyping, they have some limitations due to potential poor
connections. Because the connections are temporary, they are not as reliable as soldered
connections.

Breadboard Power Supply

It is a good way to get constant 5V for your circuit, it is compatible with the breadboard.
