Thread: not enough current for relays?

I have one of those relay boards (or at least one that looks remarkably like it) - I drive it directly with the 5V out from a CNCUSB Mk2/9 board digital output - no issues.
I'd measure the DC resistance of your relay coil...I'd wager you can probably short out that output 100 Ohm resistor (which should then see sufficient current to energize the relay) ...else play on the safe side & put something like a 10 ohm resistor across it (i.e. in parallel with it)Last edited by HankMcSpank; 11-08-2015 at 09:03 PM.
