I would like to drive some solenoid valves (about 450mA at24VDC) with a PIC 16f877A. The idea is that the solenoid valves must open and close very fast . I just spent time on the internet and found I could use Relay SSR, opt coupler, MOSFET etc to drive solenoid valves. I could not decide the best driver circuit for my requirement
What do you think from your experience What would you recommend to drive solenoid valves for fast switching?
looked on the internet search many say optocoupler is a good choice, Is it a good choice?
Edit : I assumed response time of solenoid valves is less then 10ms
