The most common are tiny (170 tie-points), half-sized (400 tie-points), and full-sized (830 tie-points), according to ProtoSupplies.
These sizes often include power rails for convenient connections.
Here's a more detailed look:
- Tiny Breadboards: Typically have 170 tie-points and no power rails.
- Half-Sized Breadboards: Feature around 400 tie-points with power rails on the sides.
- Full-Sized Breadboards: Offer around 830 tie-points and also include power rails.
- Larger Breadboards: Available, sometimes with doubled power rails, and can be interlocked to create even larger prototyping areas.
Dimensions of common sizes:
- Full-size breadboard (830 tie-points): Around 6.5 inches long with power rails on both sides, according to Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange.
- Half-size breadboard (400 tie-points): About 2.2" x 3.4" (5.5 cm x 8.5 cm), according to Smart Prototyping.
- Tiny breadboard: Dimensions are 1.8" x 1.4" x 0.4" / 46mm x 36mm x 10mm, according to Adafruit.
The spacing between tie-points on a breadboard is typically 0.1 inches (2.54 mm).

How wide should a breadboard be?
Here's how to plan a panel with bread-board ends. When you figure the overall finished length of the panel, take the breadboard ends into account. The breadboard ends are usually 2" to 3" wide, but you can make them wider or narrower for larger or smaller panels, if you wish.

What size is a 830 point breadboard?
This 6.5" x 2.125" solderless breadboard has four bus lines each spanning the length of the board, and 63 rows of pins, enough for up to nine 14-pin DIP ICs or seven 16-pin DIP ICs. The rows and columns of tie points are conveniently labeled, and multiple units can be connected for larger projects.
