Proto Planner is a simple utility designed to assist in transferring circuits from a breadboard to a protoboard. While there are numerous tools available for transitioning projects from breadboards to schematics or printed circuit boards (PCBs), finding a simple solution for the intermediate step of using protoboards proved difficult. This utility aims to fill that gap.
- Side-by-Side Dual View: View both Top and Bottom sides of your board simultaneously for efficient planning of component placement and complex wiring.
- Customizable Wiring: Draw wires in a variety of colors to organize and distinguish different signal paths.
- Component Management: Rotate components for optimal layout and lock them in place to prevent accidental movement.
- URL-Based Sharing: Project state is encoded directly into the URL. Simply copy and share the link to save your progress or send it to others.
- Privacy First: Entirely local. No data is stored server-side; your designs live only in your browser and the URLs you create.
- ElectroCookie 30-row breadboard style
- ElectroCookie Snappable Mini (20x20)
- ElectroCookie Mini (17 row)
A growing selection of common through-hole components is available:
- Passives: Resistors, Ceramic Capacitors, Electrolytic Capacitors, Potentiometers
- Semiconductors & ICs: Diodes, N-MOSFET (TO-220), NE555 Timer
- LEDs: Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, and White
- Power: DC Barrel Jacks, MP1584 Buck Converters
- Connectors & Switches: Screw Terminals, Tactile Switches, 4-position DIP Switches
- Microcontrollers: Wemos D1 Mini, ESP32 D1 Mini (Type-C)
This application is a single-page web app intended solely for planning the physical placement and wiring/soldering of components.
- No Validation: The application does not perform any electrical validation of your circuit. It is a visual planning tool.
- Browser Support: The application has been tested on Firefox. There are no guarantees regarding its performance or functionality on other web browsers.
