Getting familiar with Breadboard
Hello guys! first of all sorry for the delay to the post got busy in exams and stuff. Anyway, todays topic is pretty interesting one, This will guide you on how to use a breadboard . After this Tutorial, you will be able to build temporary circuits on a breadboard with ease and don't forget you have to practice building circuit to be able to use breadboard effectively.
First of Breadboard is a device having many holes in it. These holes are basically connection points in which you can insert your components wires and stuff. Now, these holes are connected with each other in specific order. If you put your components in those they will be get connected as per connections of hole.
The Interconnections of holes:-
(You can skip this point below if lengthy and don't understand this way below is another way of saying same, refer to that instead)
Take a look at picture 1:-
A breadboard is divided into four regions, No any hole of one region is connected with hole of any another region. just for an example No any single hole of region 2 is internally connected to
any other Region 1,2 or 3.
Now take a look at picture 2:-
Region 1 and 4 are enclosed in red square. holes in this region are connected horizontally. That means holes in row 1 in region 1 is connected to every hole in the same row up to green mark and the holes in row 1 after green mark are connected horizontally with each other. region 1 and 4 is divided into 10 partitions and every hole in a row is connected up to 5 partitions that's one set and for further 5 partitions in the same row exists set 2. But rows are not connected vertically.
Region 2 and 3 which are enclosed in black square have vertical connection. Every hole is connected to every other hole in the same column. But columns from region 2 are not connected to column of region 3
Putting all of it in another way this is how breadboard is connected internally. Straight line denotes connection
Some Extra points to remember:-

| Internal connections of Breadboard |
- Region 1 and 4 are generally used for supplying power so it can be easily accessible throughout the board and also ground point too
- ICs are connected over the gap between region 2 and 3 in a way that half of its pins are in region 2 and remained all pins are in region 3
