#175154 - solenoid driver |
I am trying to switch ON and OFF a solenoid vlave operating at 24 v 0.5 A using a digital signal from a microprocessor
My digital signal supply is only in TTL level (ie in micro amps range).But my valve needs 0.5A 24 V current. I also wanted to switch on and off at high speed using the digital signal. So I decided to put a relay in-between the signal and valve and connect the power supply to the relay . and expected the relay to be actuated by the signal form signal generator. But the relays which I found also require about 10 mA current at 5V which is not possible by the 5V TTL signal. So I am now looking for means to actuate my valve at 24 V ,0.5 A using a TTL signal when ever the TTL signal goes on the input to the valve is 24V whenever the TTL signal goes low the input to the valve goes to zero. Any suggestions on how this problem can be solved? |
