Lab1 Material : Solderless Breadboards

Using Solderless Breadboards in our Labs is the best approach to provide the maximum flexibility, which allows us to adapt and change the circuits while we are experimenting and thus see if our ideas would work in a real world application.

Solderless Breadboards MB-102 connections by Ralf Fickert

The holes in the numbered columns are connected together on the underside of the board. I marked the row 1 to 5 with orange arrows to show how the holes are connected.  As you can see 5 holes a - e and f - j are connected on each side of the gap. The yellow arrows are showing you how the power rail holes (Blue ‘– ‘ and Red ‘+’) are connected. Therefore when you connect a power supply to a hole of the power rail then the power is available at all connected holes of this power rail. Power rails are located on the top and bottom of the breadboard.

Multiple breadboards can be joined if required to provide more space for experimenting.

We use the Breadboard Model: MB-102 (Ever-muse electronic) within our Labs:  

• Ideal for high frequency and low noise circuits
• Interconnect any components with 20-29 AWG (0.3-0.8 mm) wire
• Special designed spring clip over 5,000 insertion cycles
• Specifications: 830 points
• Size: 16.5 x 5.4 x 0.9 cm 
• Net weight: 77 g

I hope this is useful for you,
Ralf
