How to use a breadboard power supply module for DIY learning electronics

Could u list some reliable bread boards? I don't have a lot of money to give away

what does it mean if the light blinks?

THANK YOU SO MUCH

I was struggling for so long until I found this video and it helped me tremendously in in time of need!

Hi, sorry am fairly new at this,. How to connect this to the arduino ide software on pc ? Thanks in advance

It's interesting that he's bread boarding and doesn't seem to understand that LEDs just like all diodes have a voltage drop across them of approx. 0.3 volts in most cases.

Awesome video

i bought my set, looked at it and found out i had no idea what to do next, decided to ask the internet and here you are, as "the internet". very friendly, very helpful. BIG THANK YOU

My PS says 7-12vdc input. I run it at 12

thanks for the tip! I'm just starting out and did not know what this was.

Does this still work if my breadboard doesn't have the other power and ground supplies?

If you dont have a barrel jack adaptor for power, i stripped an old usb cable and soldered the leads (black and red cables) to the bottom of the board.

Can i ask, does the power module have a specified polarity? (Im a beginner lol)

Nice video, keep it up, thanks :)

How much current can breadboard/jumper wires handle?

I did this and trying to make a half gate but it just doesn't work like there is battery but something is different whenever I do any gate ...

I just got one if these in the mail, mine didn’t come with any alligator clips or female connectors

Im glad i saw this , i could not figure out why my bread board did not have power. 😮

will i be good with the ELEGOO Upgraded Electronics Fun Kit?

Thanks for this excellent video and information. I just ordered a breadboard kit with power supply kit. I plan to design DIY model railroading projects.😊

Great vid
I appreciate the way you explain things.

New to breadboards (and electronics); what device should i use to supply my current?

Hello! Is it possible to use the breadboard power supply to make a series connection of two power supplys to get 6.6V (2x3.3V) or 8.3 (5V+3.3V) or even 10V? Thank you for your answer!

I am your new subscriber 👍

Can it handle 10-12amps of current?

Hey masn you saved the day. Just received one of these from my cousin to help with circuit building.Your video showed me how to use it.

Is there a usb hub that might protect usb ports from shorts, getting into the hobby and seen one user talk about a bad board shorting out a usb port, just trying to get ahead of something similar happening, at least, would rather a usb to short rather then my PC shorting while scripting.

Ah, I have been hitting it with 12v wondering why it wasnt working lol

What do I do if I need 9V? Is that possible? I had got one of those 'make your own arduino' kits and it needs to be powered. I have this plug thing you showed without the actual power adapter. Maybe I should buy a damn battery. lol. It would be nice to get this power adapter running though.

What's the name of power supply being used in this video

new sub I will checkout a few more of your videos :)

how can you short circuit protect this? just add a zener diode?

where should I connect the 5v from this power supply to an arduino uno?

I have a 12v power supply for the power supply module, will it work or fail?

I am trying to connect the HW-131 to my 5v LED Christmas tree. I have 3 AA batteries which I connected to one side and move the pin to the 5V output. I got nada, cero, zilch Nada. Any IDEAS?

I fried a board, replacing it or building it I cannot 😮

very crystal clear ... Thanks, Paul... I 've been waiting for a decade to understand the complexity of beadboard circuit

The diod creates a voltage drop when current passes through it. You can see this effect when you plug multiple led lights is series. After 3 red leds, the voltage appears close to zero.

What exactly is the function of the USB port?

Be aware, if you select OFF for either of the power rails, the "-" (ground) rail is still connect to ground.

Thank you! I just wired up one of these to a 9V battery, and it's powering a Nano BLE 33, and a SSD1306 display. Question: this seems weird to me; I thought I'd need to switch between the "5V output" from the Nano to power the rail when plugged in to USB (the way I initially had this configured), vs the "VIN" pin when powered by the HW-131. As a test I plugged the USB in, with the rail still connected to VIN rather than 5V, and the display still powered on and functioned!

I don't want to cook anything more -- already let the magic smoke out, trying a 12V power supply with the HW-131, which it says it's rated for. I know enough to be dangerous, at least I didn't fry the Nano or display! :)

Appreciate any insight on why the VIN pin is providing output for the display, when powered via USB. Thanks!

Great job, thanks v much Sir...I had the same stuff....

How can I get 9v output from the module?

Specification says that it can accept up to 12V not 9V you mention.

What resistor are you using in the LED? I am new to this stuff, and i am not sure what number to use.

Important: Always check the power supply for the polarisation. There are + inside and - outside AND vice versa! The latter are ment for powering guitar effect pedals! In this case you need an adapter changing the polarisation.
