In this podcast, Bre Pettis shows you how to set up a breadboard for power and then play around with electronics on it Note: In the podcast, I mention Charles Platt's article is from Make: volume 11. Its actually in Make: Volume 10.

This video continues part 1 by showing how a breadboard, also called a protoboard, is used to build electronic circuits without soldering, by guiding the student through 10 steps to build a blinking LED circuit based on the 555 IC timer chip. The circuit also needs 3 resistors, 1k, 4.7k, and 10k. It also requires a 10 uF electrolytic capacitor, an LED, some jumper wires, and a 6-volt battery or power supply.

The Breadboard Band is a performing band that uses breadboards made of freely constructed electronic circuits to play music. We produce audio and visual expression through the most minimal, fundamental elements in the form of showing the electronic components of an instrument while directly touching and forming the electronic circuit by hand. The electric signals released from hand-made electronic circuits releases extremely rough and ferocious wave patterns. This performance is based on improvisational interplay, and we pull powerful music into shape through each member's operation, while discovering new sounds by hand.

I bread boarded the Polivoks filter using the schematic form http://m.bareille.free.fr I love it. With the input gain turned down it reminds me of a slightly harsher MS20 and with the input gain cranked it is delightfully evil. The resonance at full is nasty. I crank it at the end of the video. Please excuse the crappy camera work. Visit my music page @ http://www.myspace.com/isaciongun

First attempt to make a USB Audio 1.0 soundcard with a Microchip PIC18F2550. The scheme is basically the one found on http://www.raccoonrezcats.com/soundcard.html made by Mike Zoran, with some personal changes (nothing important anyway). I have used trimmers instead of digital potentiometers because I'm waiting for their deliver. Despite this, the volume can still be adjusted on the Windows control panel by moving the Wave slider. The soundcard works ok, has a low latency but the use of a 12-bits DAC and rail-to-rail 0-5V op-amps degrades the sound a lot. Without any data streamed, the USB power supply has a bad ripple (I can hear other devices sending messages), and the breadboard can only make it work worse. An external power supply with appropriate power filtering, the use of better (audio specific) op-amps, hi-end DACs and an accurate PCB design would make it sound waaay better. As Mike wrote, his project was released ONLY as a cheap learning tool. An EXCELLENT learning tool ;-)

This is, once again, Game Institute Design Your Own Game Console course. It's taught by Andre LaMothe and Joshua Hintze. For Lesson 8, all you do is is put the pico edition on a breadboard and test out a bunch of programs on it.

I generated bubbles today (presumably hydrogen) from my Stiffler SEC breadboard. As I was in a "just try it out" mood and had little time, I used some silver wires immersed in a water glass with some baking soda dissolved to create an electrolyte. After getting bubbles with one pair, I added a second pair and got bubbles from both. I measured ~2.7v+ potential between the rods.

My first stompbox project. I gathered up all the components to build and tweak 4 classic stompbox distortions - Tube Screamer, Proco Rat, Big Muff Pi, and Boss DS-1. My goal is to come up with a hybrid design combining the best of all four designs. This is the TS, my first test.
