Hello Everyone! Anyone would like to tell me a easy way to control a solenoid valve by a microprocessor? This solenid valve need to connect the leads to a power source(24VDC). It is not polarity sensitive. Switch on for a minimum of 20ms and the solenoid will rotate 35 degrees. Switch off and the return spring will rotate the output shaft back to the start position. Thanks
Check out the TI "TPIC" series of power IC's. These devices will handle the current necessary and are easy to work with. More info at: http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/productfolder.jhtml?genericPartNumber=TPIC6B595
