Flickr member Kitty's Pictures shares these shots of her homebrew develeopment blocks. Who can resist an array of mini-modularity?
uC prototyping blocks, aka "Dev Blocks." These are small single component boards that are ready to plug into a breadboard.I've made some similar boards with header pins for my most commonly used prototyping parts and small circuits. It's definitely a good move if you find yourself a non-plussed about breadboarding.Here the connectors are interlocked.
From left to right:
Piezo element
Bi-color LED (red/green) x2
SPST, N-O momentary switch w/ pulldown resistor
Light dependent resistor (LDR)
DS18B20 I2C digital temperature sensor
LM35 temperature sensor (10mV/C)





































These cannot be plugged into a breadboard, they have wire terminals. They could wired together with the aid of a screwdriver.

yah - perhaps she's using some right-angle male header pins as adapters?

Sooo...this takes components that can be easily breadboarded, puts them on dedicated screw terminal boards, That are ready to use with a breadboard , if you use right angle aapters, so you can use the breadboard that you are non-plussed about...WHAT?!?!?!?!?
Maybe after I do the mushroom kit...this will MAKE sense..
