Make: How to Use a Breadboard This book will help you make electronic circuits with a breadboard. A breadboard is a plastic base used for making circuits. The holes in the top of the breadboard open onto clamps on metal strips that conduct electric current. By inserting wires and electronic components into the openings, you can build an endless variety of circuits. And, because no solder is needed, you can easily move components around or even tear down the circuit completely and reuse your breadboard to build a new circuit. This comic book-style manual contains 10 fun and challenging circuits you can build yourself. Each is shown as circuit diagrams and as easy-to-follow, full-color drawings. Build it as shown, and then experiment! We also offer the book and parts bundle (P/N: 2246485), so you can get started right away! Inside, you'll find instructions for the following circuits: Dark Detector LED Flasher Electric Cricket Breathing LED Banshee Siren Light Theramin Blues Organ Bike Signal Light Touch Switch LED Color Organ You'll also find an "X-ray" drawing showing you the inside of your breadboard and a handy chart for understanding the color codes on resistors.
