stm32f429i-disc1 and breadboards?

I thinking of ordering a stm32f429i-disc1 discovery kit and I was wondering how I can mount this on a breadboard as is has double rows of pin on both the left and right side?  The breadboards that I know of are made for single rows of pins and would not work.

Please, explain or show me a breadboard that would work. Thanks!

It's not a good board for prototyping. The LCD+SDRAM soak up a lot of the pins. You should review the User Manual, and go over the pins/resources you think you need. Think about how many pins you actually need to get over to the bread board, or use wire-wrap techniques. Better yet find an STM32 based ''break-out'' board where you can actually get to signals you can use.

No, You mustn't use breadboard. You can use female to male jumper wires.

Example of Connectors - Mouser UK - PN. 855-M20-6103245

(Usually use a Samtec part but can't find the part no.)

Breadboard - Proto Advantage - PN. SBBTH4080-1
