friday13th Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Any ideas where i can get a software breadboard?Im a complete newb at electronics and my lab partner is always in a stress with me... so i plan to get trained up before friday :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TekNoir Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Here is a program which simulates working on various types of stipboards/breadboards. There is a demo available.LochMasterI have to admit that I have never used the program and, as such, cannot recommend it based on personal experience. Perhaps others can comment on them having used it or possibly even have other, better, suggestions.Edit: Though this program tries to simulate building a project on a stripboard/breadboard, it cannot actually emulate what would happen were you to "turn on" your project (it can only check electrical connections). What I believe that you are actually looking for would come under the heading of a simulation program. A quick search of this board, any other board, or even your favorite search engine, should give you many alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardM Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 HiI bought Lochmaster some time ago and it's an excellent program for stripboard layout and produces brilliant images of the design, but very high on my 'wish' list would be for it to do schematic capture and manual or automatic routing!Best of LuckEd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friday13th Posted May 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Thanks for replies, downloading the demo of lochmaster now.What im looking for is a program that teaches me how to connect things together on the breadboard, thats the thing i can't do... interpret a circuit diagram and put it onto the board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerium Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Just start some place like say where the power comes into the circuit. So take a wire and connect your power supply to the breadboard power rails. Then if there are any ics put them across the middle gap. Add a jumper from the power rail to the line that goes to the ic's power pin. Often the circuit diagrams will tell you the general area that things need to go.Like the flash game planarity. ;)http://www.planarity.net/BTW-I beat level 10!
