Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to electric circuit testing, building, or implementing using a breadboard style PCB. Aspects of the present invention include eliminating the need to use hookup wires when building and testing electric circuits on PCBs. In embodiments, a PCB system having rows and columns of signal tie points connected in a breadboard layout and using an embedded wire and a solder bridge to form partial connections between signal tie points. In embodiments, the embedded wire and solder bridge is capable of connecting a column of signal tie points. In embodiments, the embedded wire and solder bridge is capable of connecting a power rail to a signal tie point. Thus, a circuit can be implemented and tested by applying a small amount of solder to the solder bridge without the need for hookup wires.
