Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a perfboard and how is the 5x7cm Universal Perfboard used?
A: A perfboard (short for perforated board) is a flat circuit board pre-drilled with evenly spaced holes at a standard 2.54mm pitch. You insert electronic components through the holes and solder them on the reverse side to create custom, permanent circuits. The 5x7cm size is ideal for compact projects like alarm modules, sensor boards, and small microcontroller circuits.
Q: Is this prototype board compatible with standard through-hole components?
A: Yes! The standard 2.54mm hole pitch is compatible with the vast majority of through-hole components including resistors, capacitors, LEDs, transistors, DIP ICs, and headers — making it highly versatile for nearly any DIY electronics project.
Q: How many boards come in one order?
A: This listing is for 1 piece of the 5x7cm universal perfboard prototype board. It is sold individually, so you can order as many as you need for your projects.
Q: Is this board suitable for beginners learning to solder?
A: Absolutely. The clearly defined copper pads and standard hole spacing make this board one of the most beginner-friendly platforms for learning soldering and basic circuit assembly. It's a great starting point for anyone new to electronics.
