Thanks for the replies. I decide to sell my relay board locally and make a new one by myself. I have searched internet and find two options. I think they will both work with beaglebone black. Please tell me: Will they work or not? http://oi59.tinypic.com/2vcywrt.jpg http://oi59.tinypic.com/ibhxkj

These transistors, they are active low. We can only sink and drive 6mA. You could try adding a pullups to each signal to pull the voltage higher, Tie then to 3.3V. Gerald On Mon, Jul 7, 2014 at 2:51 PM, wrote: > http://www.wlelectronix.com/Content/Images/uploaded/Relay%208%20Way_2.png > My rel

http://www.wlelectronix.com/Content/Images/uploaded/Relay%208%20Way_2.png My relay module is must be something like this. Relays are 5v, so i use VDD_5V(P9_05) to drive them. GPIO turns on and off them in normal. But there is a problem in my situation. I'm trying to find it. 7 Temmuz 2014 Pazart

I can't tell much from a picture. Doe sit have a schematic, or a link to one? If the relays are 5V, then you cannot drive them from a GPIO as it is 3.3V and delivers only about 6mA.. Connecting 5V will blow the processor. You would need a level shifter such as a transistor to drive the relay..

Hello, I'm trying to use relay module with beaglebone black. I bought relay module from china. It is very similar to this: http://www.hobbyist.co.nz/sites/default/files/8ChannelRelay_small%20%28Custom%29.jpg I have connected VCC to BBB's VDD_5V(P9_05) and GND to BBB's DGNG(P9_01). Here is the pro
