Hi
I have a ir receiver , with a output of max 100mA as per below statement .
"The receiver is open collector transistor output which means that you do need a pull up resistor if you want to read a digital signal off the signal wire. Most microcontrollers have the ability to turn on a built in pull up resistor. If you do not, connect a 10K resistor between the white wire of the receiver and the red wire. If you want to control a relay or LED or whatever, it can sink up to 100mA to ground"
Question: How can I increase that to take up to a 150mA load ( a relay) ? .
Cheers
Spike
