Bee-Driver
Provide High Voltage Switching Outputs
from Standard Digital Outputs
Interfacing standard CMOS digital logic to Motors, Relays and Lamps etc....

  Use the Bee-Driver to switch higher voltage (up to 50v) and current loads (up to 500mA) using standard digital outputs from your own electronics project or from one of our USB adaptor boards. The 20 way header connector on the Bee-Driver is pin compatible with the digital output connectors on the Maxi-Bee , the Digi-Bee, the Digi-Bee+ and the PC-Bee. Although the PC-Bee already has 14 high voltage switching outputs directly available on screw terminals it also has 16 simple digital outputs available on the PL2 connector. Attaching the Bee-Driver to this connector via a standard 20 way ribbon cable lead converts these into 14 true high voltage switches with the same specification as the other PC-Bee outputs. The screw terminals on the Bee-Driver also have transient suppression facilities on two terminals to assist in direct connection to inductive devices such as motors and relays.


   Similarly on the Maxi-Bee connecting a Bee-Driver to one of the 20 way digital output headers provides 14 high voltage switching outputs and 2 LED indicators. The same transient suppression connection facilities are available. Since the Maxi-Bee has 4 such output connectors it is possible to connect up to 4 Bee-Drivers to 1 Maxi-Bee giving a massive 56 high voltage switches and 8 LED indicators.
   The Bee-Driver may also be used in your own electronics projects without a PC-Bee, Digi-Bee or Maxi-Bee to convert your digital outputs into more useful switching ones.
