Breadboard

maker

A breadboard is a reusable platform for assembling electronic circuits without soldering.

expanded

Breadboards are prototyping tools for building temporary circuits directly with electronic components and jumper wires. They are particularly important in educational settings and early stage development for educators and engineers to test circuit designs with ease, allowing changes without the need for permanent soldering.

examples

A breadboard is used to test a simple LED circuit with a 5 mm LED and a 220-ohm resistor powered by a 9V battery.

This configuration is frequently employed in educational labs for basic circuit training using an Elegoo MB-102 breadboard.

A breadboard is employed to prototype an Arduino-based temperature sensor circuit using DS18B20 sensors and pull-up resistors.

Commonly occurring in home automation development projects to demonstrate sensor integration and calibration processes.
