Hello, I am somewhat familar with electronics but when it comes to putting everything together I'm not alll that great.
I want to have a circuit that has a supply voltage of 12v that will be regulated down to 5v using a 7805. The next voltage will be a linear 0v - 5v input that is oscilating depending on an external circuit. There will be 3 outputs which will go high based on the variable voltage. When the 0-5v which will be oscilating very quickly at times is between 0-1.23v output 1 will go high while 2 & 3 remain low, when it's between 1.24v - 1.32v output 2 will go high & outputs 1 & 3 are low & etc. The conditions of the outputs are variable, meaning some applications will require output 1 to go high between the range of 0-1.1v instead of 0-1.23v as mentioned before. Also the output high has to be above 4v.
Should I use comparators (window or not) with pots to adjust for the different input voltages. Which involves alot of adjusting...
Or a microprocess but I don't know the first thing about programming
Or could I use an eeprom?
Are eeproms generally used for something like this?
What would be the best way to acheive what I want that would be reliable?
Thanks for your time
