Although this may be a basic question but I`m still struggling with it. In this schematic, two zener diodes D1 and D2 are connected back-to back across relay coil L1. The BVds = -30V for Q1. Can I use 15V(Vz = 15V) zeners for D1 and D2 instead of 5. 1 V.... -
A 5v power supply to act just like a switch. I will be controlling it with an Arduino like described here: You won`t be able to drive it directly from the Arduino pin, as most general purpose relays require at least 150mW to switch which is >30mA @ 5V. You.... -
Make a circuit that will allow me to switch on a relay that will turn on an LED. However, the relay is rated for 12 V, and I only have an input of 5 V, so I`m using an NPN transistor. to switch the power to the relay on and off. Here`s the schematic: If my.... -
A circuit that fires a relay when it detects audio pulses from one channel of an mp3 player. I`m going to record audio pulses in sync with the music to control a motor for mouth movement. So for your stereo player, you`ll just mix music/whatever onto.... -
I have an automotive relay (from a scan of a workshop manual I`m afraid) which is rather more complexly wired up than the relays I`m familiar with. In this diagram: B/G - holds high if another condition is met (engine temp too high), to prevent the relay.... -
Controlling a relay with stm32 micro controller. For the isolation I have used a 4N33 opto-isolator. As my relay coil needs around 250 mA, I used a mps222 transistor. I figured that the logic gets inverted when I used the gpio as the source voltage for the.... -
Drive a latching relay that needs about 70-90mA if the raspberry pi can only deliver about 40mA. I need to find a relay that can handle home appliances but can be controlled by the raspberry pi... -
A SPDT switch that simply switches the relay over. Any pointers would be appreciated. When I currently energize the relay, I hear it cycling, which I would image that is not good. I simple want it to "switch" normally on and then when I energize the coil,.... -
Switch a water solenoid valve using two water level switches, one will be placed at the top of a tank and will be NO (when water level is between full and empty) so that it will send a signal to the relay when the water reaches the top to stop the solenoid..... -
Using a single-coil latching relay, which latches/resets with opposite polarities. I`ve tested the circuit with dual opposite-biased LEDs too, no light flicker in either direction to indicate a charge/discharge. QuadrupleA Apr 14 `13 at 23:14 Unless there`s.... -
Control a relay from an Arduino compatible board. When I try to activate the relay from the Arduino it takes at least a second to switch closed and sometimes does not switch closed at all. Digital pin 2 of the Arduino is connected to IN0 of this circuit.... -

aquarium design, dpdt relay, 12v inverter: ONE: The relay you have selected is rated plenty sufficient for a 400 watt load. TWO: The 12v dc relay, transformer and diodes are using very little power so efficiency is of little concern. THREE: How are you.... -
A simple timer that can be used to turn on/off a load after user specified time. The prototype was developed using xBoard MINI, a low cost easy to use ATmega8 development board. The program was burned to the MCU`s flash memory using eXtreme Burner - AVR.... -
The intended result is that the relay oscillates and the LEDs flash when the button is pressed, however when I press the button the leftmost LED lights constantly and nothing else happens. I get voltage across the left LED, the resistor and the capacitor,.... -
Works but the windows go slow, you hook 12 volts directly to the motors and they zip up fine. I saw a post from several years ago where someone was trying to use the common 5 pin ice cube relay. never saw anything that said it worked. Anybody know the power.... -
Hi Parallax people, just joined the forum. I`m trying to control a CPU fan with a relay triggered by a stretch sensor. I have my circuit set up like this. Right now the stretch sensor isn`t attached, however when I power the circuit it just pulses like in.... -
This circuit is using Power Battery Terminal (PBT) for easy relay output and aux power connection. The LED on each channel indicates relay status. Berg pins for connecting power and trigger voltage... -
This tutorial shows concepts for make a lamp withdual actuation. Through aparallelswitchor by relay controlled with RF Module (based on protocol of ZigBee- IEEE 802. 15. 4). The circuit one is a receiver. This circuit controls the load and have a Relay.... -
This is a design circuit for temperature relay that can be used to signal a fire or set point for temperature monitoring function. You need to adjust P1 so that T1?s base voltage is 0.5V smaller than the emitter voltage at a temperature a little bit.... -
In the example above a low voltage (12Vdc) is used to turn on a relay to switch on a 240V ac main circuit. Please note that there is no electrical connection inside the relay between the two circuits, the link is only magnetic and mechanical. If there is.... -
Light Switch With Relay is a series of electronic switches that are controlled by a series of light received. Light Switch With Relay circuit can be used to control lighting automatically, so the lights can automatically turn on when the room light or the.... -
Here`s are some circuit diagrams for driving relays from a microcontroller. Make sure you`re using a 5-volt relay (this refers to the coil, not the load circuit), and make sure that the relay has a high enough rating for the load that you`re driving. This.... -

This is a design circuit for low current relay circuit is designed to be used in battery operated electronic devices. Its operating current is in micro amperes ( µA). This is done by using a bistable relay and adding some components to force the relay to.... -
A bike with 35 watt HS1 bulb and I want to upgrade brightness of headlight so I decided to put H4 60/65 watt xenon bulb. An expert on this forum suggested me to use relays as the new bulb requires more power. I did some google to understand relays and how to....
