parallel port
I want to learn how to control some small circuits through my parallel
port but I do not want to damage my port. What can I use to make sure that I don't draw too much power or any other problems that may occur. I thank you. |

Thank you but I'm new to electronics, ok fairly new I tinkered when I was a kid but forgot most of this stuff. Anyway What is a Opto-isolator? And how do i use one? A link ore simple diagram explaining this would be appreciated, a goggle search made my mind explode all I could get looked like engineering textbooks. Again I thank you |

What can I use to make sure that I don't draw too much power or any other problems that may occur. I thank you. Not cheap but good: Check out www.velleman.be (they can deliver all over the world I believe, I think ther're in the US as well) and search for K8000. Greetings and good luck with Your project!
