You helped me with my questions back a couple of weeks ago. The chat was titled Help with 2N3055 Transistor.
You suggested that I use the L298N to drive my coils. I have pretty much been working on it since then. I've had several stumbling blocks but nothing I couldn't work out until now. I installed 4 L298N's on the board and am driving 8 coils. All of the controls seem to work fine. I put a scope on the outputs and it was switching polarities as desired. However, as soon as I hooked up the coils with the scope still hooked up, the outputs went to a steady state +12VDC. No longer switching.
I have attached a simple scetch of the basic circuit. I found out that when I copy from AutoCad and paste to paint that it pastes in a lot of white space that I can't get rid of. I drew this circuit in paint. Let me know if it doesn't come through OK.
The frequency of the incomming pulse is 100ms on and 100ms off so about 5 cps.
Any suggestions??
