How to Use a Breadboard

[@jeremyreid9582]

Thank you Sir. This 58 year old Mechanical Engineer really appreciates your breadboard tutorial. I am now confident to experiment with simple electronics. May you and yours be blessed 🙏🏼

[@MrPanetela]

this presentation proves the 80/20 principle wrong; less than 5% of youtube is actually useful. Here is 12 minutes of pure understandable information that will benefit anybody who watches it.

[@phillipjayford478]

Like what?

[@TheCetarius]

What an exceptional video! Extremely informative.

[@Science.Buddies]

Thank you for the support!

[@donaldklopper]

Simple, professional, to the point! Thank you for the tutorial.

[@lucienkalmogo3448]

I search around the internet to understand the breadbord in vain, No one have explained it like you. Really thank you well job. you have got a follower

[@nalylulu]

Very clear explanation, best tutorial I've found online :)

[@afikile]

I have to agree with you on that one. Great work Science Buddies

[@md7306]

I agree completely. Great video!

[@bendevanny7315]

[@vidu2]

many thanks. Im a 29 year old man now, at childhood , didn't had good income to buy a Arduino kit, i really loved to use a one. recently i brought some uno boards, breadboards and some sensors . i didn't know actually how to use breadboard correctly. this helped to understand it.

Facing the same childhood problem

[@786ranabasharat]

​@@MuhammadAsad-j6m me too 😢

[@plekkchand]

Just what the doctor ordered. Lucid and well-illustrated, without irrelevant ramblings and blunders in the final product typical of other such videos.

[@Science.Buddies]

Hello everyone! Pinning this comment because it's the most common question we get on this video. It turns out that it does not matter whether the resistor goes before or after the LED in the circuit. This might seem counterintuitive if you think the resistor needs to come first to "resist" or "drop" the voltage. Since the resistor and the LED are in series, their voltage drops add up to equal the voltage of the battery (formally this is known as Kirchoff's Voltage Law). This is true regardless of what order they are placed in. If you'd like to learn more, search for tutorials on "Ohm's law" and "LED current limiting resistor." Hope that helps! Also, we apologize for the poor audio quality in this video! It is several years old and the audio was simply recorded with a cheap webcam and no post-processing. If you check out our more recent videos, hopefully you will find the quality greatly improved. Thank you for all the feedback!

[@GS-re9uy]

It's better than a muddy mix. I've learned so much from your video, it's uncomplicated and you make it look easy thank you! :)

[@grantsomething]

great video thanks buds but no post processing could save this audio haha :)

[@charimuvilla8693]

The voice is indeed a bit awful but after a minute I got used to it it's not a big deal. Thanks for the useful video!

[@Creativity06]

It's fine. Btw thanks for explaining it so nicely.

[@james77011]

hi... when using a 🍞 board, does it matter where u put the first component?

[@davidmadisontheguardian]

It's funny, started out wanting to sell my old massage chair; but had to repair the head rest swivel. Went out and nobody had the parts. Thought to myself, it would be nice to know how to machine those parts. This led to a video where a guy built his own computer assisted wood and aluminum cutting tool. I came across the concept of Arduino after that; but still didn't have a clue about electronics; so I went more basic to this idea of breadboards. I've always wanted to build my own stuff. Or to learn how to repair stuff. I really appreciate not only this video; but the content on your entire channel and the website you put up. I feel it is time for a major change in my life; where I learn to become much more self-reliant. It's 2024; and already many great shifts have occurred. Thanks, and I subscribed just from this one video.

[@davidmadisontheguardian]

I can sense a wide and deep rabbit hole that I'm about to go down. With these basics, I'll eventually be able to learn other things like coding with C, and building machines that make jobs a lot easier and more precise. Napoleon spoke about the potency behind being able to acquire specialized knowledge. We live in a day and age where information is plentiful. Not all is created equal; and so I have been learning the art and science of finding those diamonds in the rough or the gems that sparkle amongst the average. I see this channel as one such high quality source of information. Thank you.

[@patchyst7577]

Coming from someone who has a bunch of stuff like this laying around the house with a crappy idea of how it works, I found this video extremely helpful.

[@mukulbhatta2896]

I watched a lot of videos related to Breadboard. None of them were clear except this one.

[@tryhardneckbeard3206]

Cannot express enough how helpful this has been, you're a legend in my book. Thank You Sir.

[@Ayameex]

I'm trying to learn to do basic electronics on my own and this video was extremely helpful for me. Thank you for making it.

[@AndreaArreortua]

I owe you one this is exactly what I needed. I need someone to teach me like im 2 years old. I was so embarrassed walking into my circuit lab not knowing what a wire was. Thank you.

[@ezip8564]

I don’t know how you did it, but you turned something that was hopelessly confusing to me into something I can understand the mechanics of and use in electronics projects.

[@Science.Buddies]

Glad we could help!

[@dcchillin4687]

im a first year electrical engineering student working remotely, my prof didnt explain these boards the best, so this was a life saver for the labs i have to do, thanks!

[@Rockhopper1]

Thank you for a straight to the point and clear explanation, I could not get my head round this at school, thirty years later you given me the courage to once again have ago at electronics,

[@bigcreator2084]

The tutorial was easy to understand and it explained how to avoid some common mistakes while setting circuits in them.

[@frame-works]

Love how you explain the concept of stiff wires and why they should be used, and still open with the worst possible example of a breadboard circuit.

[@Ratlins9]

This is a comprehensive and well made video. As a newcomer to electronics, this video was well narrated with step by step explanations and instructions on the use of a breadboard. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@kazama2212]

Watching this just an hour before my electrical laboratory session. Thanks for the great video!

[@blackbonestudio6189]

This video got so much input but you presented it very well enough for newbies like me

[@Glitch_The_Fox]

I am a Software Engineer (Bachelor Degree and years in the profession) an 2 colleges each never explained how to use a breadboard and just assumed we knew how they worked. Thanks for the basics. I am tired of hardware being a weakness of mine in personal electronic setups.

[@drd-hm6fc]

Hi, I’m about to start studying Computer Engineering, but I don’t know that much about the field. I was wondering, how do these things fit into the IT world? How can you apply this knowledge?

[@shaunuwuu]

I actually don't deserve watching this without any cost...thanks for this awesome teaching!

[@cameroncox8378]

I've had to use breadboards for a year now and never felt like I really got it until this video. Thanks!

[@joethewolf3750]

This is honestly gonna save my ass next class. The prof didn't explain breadboards at all but we use them all the time and my lab partner understands them about as well as I did before this video. Thanks for saving at least part of my grade.

[@swolby9230]

I had the exact same issue!

[@getsmartpaul]

You guys are GREAT teachers ! I'm a senior trying to introduce electronics to a 2nd and 5th grader and learning myself.

[@Science.Buddies]

Thanks! We have many other tutorials on our channel that you may find helpful, check them out if you haven't already!

[@nark4837]

Thanks so much for this video, I have been doing digitally circuitry recently and struggled to get my head around how certain components that didn't have a wire connecting them actually were connected, I assumed there were metal strips, but obviously I came to these video to actually realise the layout of the metal strips.

[@lopsidedeyes2964]

1:57 helped me understand breadboards a lot more! Thank you!

[@Science.Buddies]

You're welcome, glad we could help!

[@anhhuynguyen4969]

It's effortless to follow along the video, thank you very much for putting out interesting and easy to understand contents like this man!

[@jenniferoviawe8772]

I like how you are show us it's raw form and not just going into the technical presentation. I also like that you have the history of the bread board. Very impressed! !!!

[@JorisDecraecker]

This was a genuine good tutorial and I've learned more here than on 4 websites combined.

[@fazewhelpley3045]

Was incredibly confused with the default Arduino breadboard, genuinely the best and most hands down informational video I’ve ever seen. Thank you!

[@cookieuk1278]

Really well explained without making assumptions of prior knowledge. Thanks.

[@dastanharris]

This is what youtube is actually made for, not meme review. Thank you sir

[@galaxy34470]

This video is like a blessing, I now want to buy a breadboard and electric components so I can finally understand practically how circuts work.

[@alfredfabulous3640]

Exactly my reasoning as well!

[@jamestaylor8217]

Excellent. I've used BB for 30+ years but never understood them as well as your explanation. Thank you.

[@Science.Buddies]

Thank you!

[@samfeigenbaum5207]

This is the exact video I needed, thanks for explaining everything so clearly! The common mistakes portion saved me a ton of time

[@edwinbarreto58]

Finally.. A video that clarifies each and every question that springs in students' minds while studying bread boards . Thank You :)

[@borisrusev9474]

That was an amazing video, for someone who is just starting out with digital electronics. I wish I had found it sooner! The only thing I would add is an explanation for the resistor, as I see others have asked this question as well.

[@Science.Buddies]

Thanks! Resistors and Ohm's Law are a big enough topic that they sort of need their own separate videos. You may find these two videos helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIaudWyneriCa5o and kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJWsc5-blJ6MlZY

[@chrisgee5893]

From one beginner to another, the resistor in simple terms reduces the flow of electricity to the LED to prevent it being burnt out. Hope that helps.

[@janellelundy4078]

Thank you for making something for beginners! Spoken very well - not too slow or too fast and includes common mistakes. This is a very clear explanation of how it works and what it will do! I am so grateful and my young students (who I cannot solder with) are going to benefit so much! I can't wait to get making with them!

[@njoy_9411]

Absolutely EXCELLENT presentation !!! Thank you so much for sharing this information !

[@derpderp3383]

I'm so happy I ordered what I did. I literally have everything in this video so I can actually learn something while putting it into practice.

[@dennzpowerlifting9152]

What size resistor

[@peatmoss4415]

@@dennzpowerlifting9152 The video description has it as 47ohm. But you also need to learn Ohm's law to figure these things out.

[@mariamhasan3733]

Before watching this video, I was jumping from here to there to understand the connections made in the breadboard. Great explanation!

[@CIVDOWNFALL]

People that were whining about the audio need to stop. It’s fine and focus on the information. You’re all a bunch of whiny divas. The audio in no way undermines the transmission of the information and I learned a lot here. People get more self centered and demanding every day I swear.
