Hello to all and I hope I can get some assistance on the circuit I need..
Being upfront.. I know nothing about electronics.. I can build you a car from the ground up. So I should be able to learn the basics of this..
So the short of the story.. I need a Transistor Ignition Module/Circuit to power an electromagnet. I want to use a hall effect switch to trigger the circuit. I want to use an input voltage of not less then 12 volts DC (like as in a car battery) so the circuit components need to be able to accept the input voltage. input amps would be the same as in a regular car battery. Timing for the circuit to charge the electromagnet should be very short. No I haven't built the electromagnet coil yet because I haven't found the ignition circuit to power it yet.
I have been searching the net and came across this:
JEH - Transistor Ignition Module page
But it can only use 6 volts input and the guy hasn't answered my question on what I would have to do to make it 12 volt compatible. So I'm left to build one for my self..
That should be enough to get this started!
Thx,
Kev
