Hi All,
I need to control one microprocessor board by another via a MOSFET switch. However, I can't seem to get the MOSFET to work! Here are the steps I followed:
uP board 1 sends a 3.3V signal to the MOSFET (nMOS) gate.
The Vcc pin of uP board 2 is connected to 3.3V.
All grounds of uP board are connected together, and connected to the drain of nMOS chip.
The source of MOSFET is connected to ground
Resistor of 100k is connected between gate and ground.
When the 3.3 power supply is switched on, the setup does not work!
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Talini
