Solution
Many of the projects in this topic involve interfacing things to the Bone. Some plug in dir-
ectly, like the USB port. Others need to be wired. If it's simple, you might be able to plug
the wires directly into the
P8
or
P9
headers. Nevertheless, many require a breadboard for
the fastest and simplest wiring.
To make this recipe, you will need:
▪ Breadboard and jumper wires (see
“Prototyping Equipment”
)
Figure 1-19
shows a breadboard wired to the Bone. All the diagrams in this topic assume
that the ground pin (
P9_1
on the Bone) is wired to the negative rail and 3.3 V (
P9_3
) is
wired to the positive rail.
