## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5588:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA5588:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Here's a handy **6cm x 8cm Proto-board PCB** that is meant for use with 2mm pitch parts - [like maybe an XBee](https://core-electronics.com.au/search?q=Xbee). Both sides have a green silkscreen with some row/column markings. Note that these *don't* have any traces between the PCB holes; you[ would normally bend over a thru-hole lead to create connections](https://learn.adafruit.com/collins-lab-breadboards-and-perfboards). They're also good for just plain mechanical work because they are made of strong FR4.

Contains 33 X lines by 26 Y lines totaling 858 holes. There are also four mounting holes so you can attach the PCB to your project box.

**Please note: this proto-board is designed with 2mm pitch not the standard 2.54mm / 0.1" pitch you may be used to!**

##  Technical Details 

- Mounting holes
    - Diameter: 3mm
    - Length mounting hole distance: 72.5mm
    - Width mounting hole distance: 55mm
