Title: Using Galils Amp enable pins
Post by: Kitamura on August 25, 2013, 04:35:04 AM

Hello there,

We are still trying to get our kitamura going and have been tidying up many loose ends. We are struggling to work out how to use the amp enable signals as i have read that we are not able to draw more than a few mA from these outputs. This is not enough to drive the relays we are trying to operate as they draw around a hundred mA to excite. Does anyone have any clues about how to do this?

Thanks
