First of all I would like to introduce myself since this is my first post on this forum.
My name is Roar and i come from Norway, and thats about it, back to what`s really important: what I would like help to make
What I would like to make is a controller that has 20 + outputs of 0-5(9) VDC where each of the outputs can be adjusted from 0-5(9) VDC without interfering with the other outputs. I would also like each output to have a on/off switch.
Each output will be used to drive small motors (like the onces in CD-Roms) and the wire from the controller to the motor may be several meters long 0-10 meters.
Attached a illustrating Picture
A text diagram of how I want it to work
220-240VAC
--->AC/DC transformer eks.**broken link removed**
--->20+ different voltage regulators that can regulate the DC voltage from 0-5 and where each can be turned on/off
--->20+ different outputs for motors eks. **broken link removed**
Edit
I think I will be using these **broken link removed** or similar motors in the project
/Edit
What I would like to ask is:
1. Are there anything that would be easy to modify into this, like computer power supplies and such things.
2. Is this project easy enough to make? ( I can solder and all that, just a little rusty on the electronics)
3. Anything else I should be wary about, like heat sensors for the motors and such?
Thanks in advance to anyone who reply.
