HI,
I would like to be able to use my PC to detect when a transistor is
high. I have found several circuit designs on how to control a
transistor from a serial or parallel port, but none for detecting the
state of transistor.
I want to build a laser beam break detector like this
:http://repairfaq.ece.drexel.edu/sam/laserexp.htm#expbbd
When the beam is broken, a transistor will be triggered and I would
like the computer to sense when the line is high.
Can this be done with a serial or parallel port?
thanks
chad
