ABSTRACT
There are several different ways of building an electronic circuit. The method that you choose
depends on a number of factors, including the resources available to you and whether you are building a ‘one-off’ prototype or a large number of identical circuits. The methods that are available to you include: Point-to-point wiring
With the advent of miniature components, printed circuit boards and integrated circuits, point-to-point wiring construction is a construction technique that is nowadays considered obsolete. The example shown in Fig. 19.1 is the underside of a valve amplifier chassis dating back to the early 1960s. Unless you are dealing with a very small number of components or have a particular desire to use tag strips and group boards, point-to-point wiring is not a particularly attractive construction method these days!
