Using the Board of Education USB Breadboard
The breadboard has many strips of copper which run underneath the board
These strips connect the sockets to each other horizontally, in groups of 5.
This makes it easy to connect components together to build circuits.
Each metal strip and its five sockets forms a node. A node is a point in a
circuit where two components are connected. Connections between different
components are formed by putting their legs in a common node. To use the
breadboard, the legs of components or wires are placed in the sockets. The
sockets are made so that they will hold the component in place. For chips
with many legs (ICs), place them in the middle of the board so that half of the
legs are on the left side and half are on the right side. Nodes on the left side
are not connected to nodes on the right side.
Example Circuit
On the left is a simple circuit used to monitor light levels. The illustration on the right shows how this
circuit can be constructed on the BOE-USB breadboard.
