Hello,
sorry if this question is too basic but I am stumped by it!
I'm making a circuit on stripboard and want to use terminal blocks to attach wires rather than soldering them to the board. After much searching I still can't find blocks which fit my stripboard - are they a PCB only thing or have I not looked hard enough them? Would you bend the pins of terminals made for PCBs and force them to fit into stripboard?
This is the stripboard I am using, http://www.rapidonline.com/Tools-Fa...Equipment/Prototyping-Boards/Stripboard/29453
I bought the 3 way terminal blocks on this page but the pins are too far apart for the board:
http://www.rapidonline.com/Cables-C....5-3.81mm-PCB/10A-3.5mm-Terminal-blocks/82656
I've looked all around the terminal blocks section, and on maplin, but they all seem to be made for PCBs.
Thanks,
Oggz
