Hey guys, I have been looking through @stardustsailor 's old threads trying to find the answer and avoid making this post. But I am having a little trouble deciphering the lingo.
THE GOAL: use a 0-5v pwm signal from a controller like an arduino to control an led driver like an HLG with a 0-10v dimming lead.
OPTION 1: use a OP amp like a Texas Instruments LM324 to boost the 5v signal to a 10v signal via a separate 12v dc power source adjusted down to 10v.
OPTION 2: use a mosfet or transistor like LM317T to do something?
if you can help me, please respond as though you are talking to someone with next to no circuit building experience. Thank you!
