if i'm not mistaken, its possible to create an on/off circuit using momentary switches involving relays and transistors.. anyone know where i can find sites which have these circuits? thanks
You need a 2-pole relay, with one relay switch wired in series with the relay coil...by-passed by the push-to-make on button, and in series with a push-to-break off button. The second relay switch then provides power to the load.
well.. i was wondering if i could make it using just one momentary switch.. i'm making a powerbus to power my ccfl and el wires and i'm going for a neat look.. i can get nice and small momentary switches and am looking to make it on when i push a button and make it off when i push the same button again. thanks for your help anywayz.. i know it can be done using a combination of 2 or more transistors but i'm not sure how to wire it up
try this as it look to be the simplest i have found. i have not tried it yet so dont know personally how well it works but you can try and tell the rest of us http://www.mellowparenting.demon.co.uk/guzzler/articles/flipflop_0.html
