Greetings All Need help amplifying Pulse Train to drive Pen Laser
I would like to create a pulse train using my sound card and cooledit pro (creating square waves) but I don't think I have enough power to drive my ULN2003A Darlington Transistor Array
For those of you who are interested this is what I intend to do.
1) Create various pulse trains by creating square waves in cool edit pro 2) Saving audio file as wav or mp3 onto my iRiver iFP 799T mp3 player 3) Using mp3 player with square wave audio pulse trains to drive my ULN2003A 4) Have ULN2003a and 3V battery power/pulse a small pen laser less than 5mWI do have a bunch of 555/556 timers that could be made into voltage doublers
If anyone has any other recommendations or another way I should go about it I'm all ears.
TIA
