Solderless breadboards

Unfortunately, the lab used in the creation of the circuits in this book closely resembles the lab of other engineering companies around the world. We use 5% tolerance resistors and 10% tolerance capacitors that are either soldered to a vector board or plugged into a solderless breadboard. This introduces various parasitics and inaccuracies in the results. In order to be more precise in showing the accuracy of SPICE simulation software, we frequently run the simulations with the stated values of the resistors or capacitors used in our lab breadboards. The measured values for each resistor and capacitor used in our breadboard configuration which may be different, are shown in Fig. 3.3. 

In case of having a solderless breadboard (Figure 4.19), mount on it the desired circuit and check it works properly.

Before building the final device, it is recommended to mount it on a solderless breadboard. Currently, on the market there are various devices of this type, which may include power sources required, e.g. typically +5 V for TTL logic devices, -F12 V and —12 V to power-integrated circuits, the function generator with adjustable output voltage, speakers.
