I want to make an AND logic gate that takes as the two inputs:
1) Impulsions from a microcontroller
2) High frequency signal from a NE555
How do I go about doing it?
I would like to know in what form the microcontroller gives impulsions to the logic gate (which I plan to make with either 2 transistors or 2 diods; which is better?).
I would also like to know in what form the NE555 gives its high frequency signal to the logic gate.
I think that would help me connect these components together.
What comes after these components is a sort of voltage amplifier (which I plan to make with 1 transistor, 3 resistors and 1 capacitor; is that a good idea?) and after this voltage amplifier is a transformer to isolate the microcontroller from the triac that comes after the transformer.
Finally, the project is actually to regulate the power given to a heating element and the triac is the component that regulates the power that the heating element receives.
Thank you in advance for helping me answer these questions.
