Dear all,
I am now working on my final year project. Now I have a problem, I need to activate a 9V solenoid from my microcontroller's (Basic Stamp 2) pin which supplies only 5V. How can I do it?
One idea is to connect the pin to a transistor, so the transistor can turn on the solenoid for me. Will it work? If it works, what kind of transistor can I buy?
Kindly advise
Thanks alot!!!
