This construction method is my favourite. As circuits get faster, having a solid ground plane is becoming more and more important, and standard perf board can often not keep up. I also find desoldering annoying, because often on pad per hole boards I end up lifting pads. I have found this method to be reliable and easy to swap components, and it is also really scalable if you mount modules onto a larger board by soldering their ground planes together (I usually use desoldering braid that has been used, normally it would just be thrown out.)

Nice idea with the copper braid, I have a bunch laying around that I don't know what to do with and now I know! Thanks!

I came as guest scientist to work in PTB from India for 3 mnths in Braunschweig (1:30 hr) local train travel to your place 😂. I also have an electronics lab back home and it will be heartbreaking to leave it back 😢.

[@NNNILabs]

Sounds like an interesting experience! And yes, I can understand the feeling of leaving your lab behind...

[@audsa6447]

impressive!

Salam...can you offer us with a project of capacitanc measurement like what you had done with L measurement..but with a display .and clear schematic not aurduino.thanks

[@NNNILabs]

You can build the same circuit, but instead of using a know capacitance, you can replace it with a known inductance. A display will require some kind of programmable device, if not a huge bunch of logic.

So many circuits on the Internet are such CRAP!!!!! Level shifters are one of the worst, followed closely by A/C inverters.
