Open Emitter Output will not go low(UDN2982) To be more precise: Open Collector Output Will Not go High without an external pull-up; Open Emitter Output will not go low without an external pull-down. If you don't know what "pull-up" and/or "pull-down" mean, see: http://www.8052.com/forum/read/25522 For a link to a good site on Basic Electronics, see: http://www.8052.com/forum/read/162273 - it includes a description of "Sinking" and "Sourcing" http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/component...sinksource |
