Relay Required

Not open for further replies.
it seems that P MOSFET idea will not be practical, everyday i'm changing one as it get damaged and get heated too much
i think relay will be a better idea
 
Relay wont trigger at 0v unfortunately, else I would just use one myself. For me only a mosfet works in this situation. Mine is 53A, so it should surely handle a lot of heat. Plus I bolted mine to the bracket of the relay so it becomes its heatsink.

did u do circuit like this ? .. please send me photo
 
somebody sent me this connection for relay

Wow, this is exactly 100% my case, please give me full details with components no and connections and photos if available please
 
what is the relay number ?
did u use and resistors ? 100 ohm and 100k ohm
connection is the same as in the image above between your MOSFET and relay ?
 

Everything is in the other post I said. I didn't use any resistors. It's the same as what that other guy drew for me on my diagram thing.
Ok thanks i nearly got all the components
Have only one doubt
In the picture attached now 3 pins marked by red
What will be connected to these pins ?
The pin marked in green, this will be the new 12 volt output ?

and i cannot understand why relay is needed ?

The green is earth/ground.

The red, well one is the voltage for what you want powered and one is the source of that power. The middle one is not used. So you're going in between an existing power line and interrupting it with the relay. Relay is what switches between on and off. MOSFET tells the relay to switch when it's 0v.

Not too bad once you make it!
 
so i can use
87 for the device i want it to be powered
87A not used
30 continuous 12 volt supply
86 is connected to MOSFET drain pin
85 is connected to 86 through a diode and then to ground

sorry i have no idea about this at all

correct ?
