RE: [beagleboard] Control 5V relay with my BeagleBone Black GPIO

2015-02-11 Thread William Pretty Security
You should be able to just the replace the resistors.

On second thought, the LED across the coil was a bad idea.

 

Maybe someone else has a suggestion on that one.

 

 

No one could make a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could 
do only a little.

Hi bill,

 

Thanks for your help, so i just have to replace the resistors by new ones, for 
Leds what is your idea to connect them to relay coil?

Hi;

 

I took a look at both circuits.

There’s uses an opto-isolator, so shorting the LED should work.

 

In your case, the 1K resistor on the base will load the GPIO too much.

I used a 10K base resistor with a 100K pull down. 

Basically multiply both of your values by 10 and you8 should be fine.

I would hook the LED in parallel with the relay coil.

 

Good Luck

 

Bill

Hi,

 

I have a 5V Relay shield to control with my BBB, i know the GPIO work with 
3.3V, i see an instructable that i can shunt the leds in my relay shield and it 
will work, it is safe for my bbb to do that?
