Product Overview
A 93 x 55 mm single-sided board with parallel copper strips on a 2.54 mm (0.1 in) hole grid. Parts soldered along a strip are joined, a cut in the strip ends the connection, and a breadboard circuit becomes a permanent build without a custom PCB.
Key Features
- 93 x 55 mm board
- 2.54 mm (0.1 in) hole pitch for DIP ICs, pin headers and standard through-hole leads
- Parallel copper strips run the long way of the board
- Shorter strips along both long edges, set between the corner pads, for supply rails
- Four corner mounting holes
- Copper on one side only
Applications
- Moving a guitar pedal, synth module or audio circuit off the breadboard and onto solder.
- Building a one-off sensor interface or microcontroller breakout on the bench.
- Repairing or modifying gear where a small add-on circuit needs a home inside the case.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I break a strip between two parts?
Twist a 3 to 4 mm drill bit by hand in a hole, or use a strip cutter, until the copper ring around that hole is gone. The board underneath stays intact.
Will a DIP IC fit?
Yes. The 0.1 in pitch matches DIP pins. Cut the strip under the chip between its two rows of pins so opposite pins are not shorted together.
Can I cut this board down to a smaller size?
Yes. Score along a row of holes on both sides and snap it, or cut it with a fine saw. The strips stay usable on each piece. More pieces cost less each - the price-break table on this page shows what each quantity costs.
Ninety-three by fifty-five millimeters holds a fuzz circuit with room left over for the mistakes. Cut the first strip and start building.
