Electroluminescent

Archiver

Is anyone familiar with connecting electroluminescent materials to
the basic stamp? I was thinking about those night-light type
materials or strips that you can buy online from

Cheers.

these devices are ac high voltage/low current devices and can not be
directly connected to the stamp, however, you can use the stamp to switch on
a relay that then applies 120 vac (in the case of the night lights) to the
device. The units used in battery devices have a switching power supply
built in or external to increase the voltage and chop it at a frequency
required by the electroluminescent panel. For transistor driver schematic
and hook up to a stamp see this web site:
