Jack Gassett Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Hey everyone, here is a video of a Breadboard Wing prototype. If there is enough interest I would start work on making this available in the Gadget Factory store. What do you think? http://youtu.be/pMtVmURkFqI LOL, I say 5.5V but meant 5.0V. Jack.

hamster Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 9.5 out of ten. I would buy a couple. - Wing pins are very exposed and might get damaged in shipping. Can a polystyrene block be put over them? - Needs a couple of stand-offs on the outboard edge to it sits nicely on the bench when you are pushing things in. Might need to be isolated or plastic to prevent shorting the ground plane to the bench. - Some of the small cheap solderless bread boards are really nasty. - Black looks very cool, but white is easier to work on. - With a bit of trickery you also make it a Pmod adapter :-) - How are the power rails set up? I think that just a two wing style "5v 3v3 2v0 GND" on the top and bottom edges (four in total), without the ground on the end would be nicer, - Maybe have some rubber bumps for the bottom of the Papilio board too, stop it sliding around What you might find is that people will grab the Gerbers and make their own...

rpflaum Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I like the idea and very much agree with Hamster's comments. I like the thought of a Pmod adapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Gassett Posted February 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Well, I've already made adapters for Seeed's Analog and Digital Grove products, and I want to do PMODs next. I'll think about how feasible it would be to add them to this breadboard but it might be better to have them as separate adapters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bithead Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I agree with Hamster's comments as well. And I would buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
