- 6/06Using relays with microcontrollers
A relay is a switch which is operated by electricity. It is usually electromagnetic device which has coil. When this coil is supplied with power, a magnetic field created and will operate mechanical switch. There are solid state relays which do not have moving parts but are very expensive - 24/05Selection of Board Member Candidates
