i need to build a number of circuits that can replace relays,
the voltage will be 12 volts, the load to be switched is a max of 1.5 amps,
the trigger viltage will be 12 volts, and a max current of 50Ma.
Basicaly i have a 8 way light switch (tough panel) that has latching ouputs,
that shoud power relays to switch the lights on and off, but the system
needs to be economical on the power, so having 8 relays drawing power must
be avoided,
it's all Direct current BTW.
i need something simple to build, that can replace a relay, i knwo you can
buy solid state relays, but they are too expensive for this project,
was told about SCR's, but they latch and need the power removing from the
load to turn off, i need something that will allow power to flow between 2
points when voltage is applied to another point, and interupt the power flow
when the voltage is removed from that point.. just like a relay, but
electronic.. mosfet circuit??
