May 10, 2017 · 10. You decide which rails are positive and which are negative when you connect them to the + an - from your power supply or battery. A breadboard isn't polarised per se. It's just a bunch of cross-connections inside a perforated plastic case. No active or passive components inside.

Getting polarity right in your circuit all starts and ends with getting the power supply connected correctly. Whether you're project's getting power from a wall-wart or a LiPo battery, it's critical to make sure you don't accidently connect them backwards and apply -9V or -4.2V to your project accidently. Anyone that's ever replaced batteries knows...
These (traditionally) three-terminal, polarized components are lumped together because they share similar package types. Through-hole transistors, MOSFETs, and voltage regulators commonly come in a TO-92 or TO-220 package, seen below. To find which pin is which, look for the flat edge on the TO-92 package or the metal heatsink on the TO-220, and ma...
This is just the tip of the polarized-component iceberg. Even non-polarized components, like resistors, can come in polarized packages. A resistor pack -- a grouping of five-or-so pre-arranged resistors -- is one such example. Fortunately, every polarized component should have some way to inform you which pin is which. Be sure to always read the da...
Locate the 100µF electrolytic capacitor. Unlike resistors, this particular part is polarized so care must be taken to ensure proper orientation when placing it on the breadboard. Most radial electrolytic capacitors will have a white strip with negative symbols running along the length of the can to indicate the negative lead.
A breadboard diagram is a computer-generated drawing of a circuit on a breadboard. Unlike a circuit diagram or a schematic (which use symbols to represent electronic components; see the Advanced section to learn more), breadboard diagrams make it easy for beginners to follow instructions to build a circuit because they are designed to look like the "real thing."
Jumper wires are essential accessories when working with a breadboard. They are used to create connections between different points on the breadboard. Jumper wires can be used to connect components, bridge gaps, and route signals. They come in various lengths and colors, allowing for customization of your circuit layout.
Slide the stripped end of your jumper wire through the hole, and screw the post back down until the wire is firmly connected. Typically, you only need to connect a power and ground wire from the posts to the breadboard. If you need an alternate power source, you can use the third post.

Jan 18, 2023 · Here’s a simple circuit diagram of a resistor and LED connected to a 9V battery: To connect this circuit to a breadboard, first connect the resistor, making sure the pins are on different rows. Then connect the LED, making sure its negative leg is connected to the same row as the upper leg of the resistor. This is such a simple circuit, that ...
