Teensy 2.0 + USB Host Shield for Arduino Pro Mini on breadboard?

Projects General Guidance
1

Hello there,

For a project I will use a Teensy 2.0 and I will need a USB port connected with the Teensy. After some researched I found this site, which basically shows how to connect a Teensy 2.0 with an USB Host Shield for Arduino Pro Mini.

However it's my very first time using these kinds of devices, which is why I don't exactly get what I need and what they're called. Also, since I want to try some stuff, I want to solder the least possible. I've read somewhere that there are some "breadboards", in which you can simply clip the devices in and use some prepared wires to get the same result and still being able to replace the devices without big efforts. Would it really work with these breadboards?

kind regards

Teensy 2.0 works well in a breadboard. Removing it can be tricky. I use these...

thanks, that's quite relieving!
And also thanks for the tipp :slight_smile:

However I have another question by now, considering the capacitor(I was always bad in physics):

it says I need a 100uF capacitor or more - the only one I can find is at 25V.
Could it damage the devices, which are running at 3.3V, so that I need a 100uF capacitor at 3.3V or would it work?

EDIT: Found an answer to the strokethrough part :slight_smile: It should work

kind regards
