Prototyping Boards, Breadboards

Prototyping Boards and Breadboards

Experiment with a new electronics project using these breadboards and prototyping boards.

Breadboards are a small rectangular plastic boards with a series of holes arranged in rows. Each row is connected underneath along the length of the board so that connections are made between components inserted anywhere on the same row. Some breadboards also include special rows on each side that are used as power rails.

Prototyping boards are have interconnected holes like a breadboard although components are soldered in to make a more permanent circuit. Some prototype boards are purpose made to extend boards like the Arduino Uno as a prototype shield.
