Product Description:
Low-cost driver board for devices such as LEDs, solenoids, lamps etc. Ideal for use with our Chrome Plated illuminated pushbuttons. When used with the MALA front-end, the easiest way to add illuminated buttons to your panel.

Features:

Basic Connection Method
The picture below shows a schematic representation of 3 LEDs connected. These are 5 volt LEDs as used in our UltraLux buttons In actual usage the connections would be made using quick-disconnects to the button lampholder. up to 16 can be connected in this way. No external power required. To simplify connection, for the power "daisy-chain" you can use our pre-made daisy-chain harness.

Advanced Connection Methods
For connecting devices requiring a higher total current than 500mA for all devices, or devices requiring more than 5 volts, Instead of connecting the red power "daisy chain" to the "+" connection on the PCB, simply connect to an appropriate voltage source. For example a PC disk power connector will provide 12 volts through the yellow wire. When powering from a PC, there is no need for a ground wire since the ground return is via the shield of the USB cable.

The diagram below shows how to connect 12 Volt LEDs

When using 12 Volts DO NOT CONNECT THE 12 VOLT SUPPLY DIRECT TO ANY OF THE BOARD TERMINALS
IMPORTANT: When connecting solenoids you must connect a diode across each coil to eliminate "back-EMF" discharge through the driver board. The diode is connected with the end marked with a line to the power-supply end of the coil. Diodes are not required when connecting LEDs.
