And as a finale on this topic, here's a slide from Analog Devices saying very much the same...



The page link is http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/rarely_asked_questions/moreInfo_raq_analogBreadboarding.html

So you can see if anybody "is fancying himself" (latest comment emailed to me from one of the thread hijackers - sad isn't it?) it must be the crew at Analog...

(edit) Must add, I like this bit (at the above page)...

"When the components of a breadboard of this type are wired point to point in the air (a type of construction strongly advocated by Robert A. Pease of National Semiconductor [Reference 1] and sometimes known as "bird's nest" construction) there is always the risk of the circuitry being crushed and resulting short circuits, also if the circuitry rises high above the ground plane the screening effectof the ground plane is diminished and interaction between different parts of the circuit is more likely. Nevertheless the technique is very practical and widely used because the circuit may so easily be modified."

Bob, the inventor of the P45 opamp in the 60's recently got his P45.

Oh well...

Mrs Murphy sounds like an emminently sensible woman - I would agree with her sentiments.

Good read, thanks for the link. Thumbs%20Up
