    Need help designing a circuit for my car

    The new sender uses the same 0v-5v as the exisiting one - I just need to shift the voltage lower or higher through this circuit to make the gauge correct. J

    Need help designing a circuit for my car

    Oh - and besides... the new sender would have a lower voltage to start with, so I'd really need to step it up which a voltage divider wouldn't do for me... Thanks!

    Need help designing a circuit for my car

    Thanks for the reply! I had thought about that... The only issue I see is that if I use a divider, then I can never truly max the gauge out. Dividing the voltage always would mean (assuming R1/tap to drive gauge/R2) that technically I can never see a full 5 volts on the gauge. Do I...

    Need help designing a circuit for my car

    Hi all! Thanks in advance if you're able to help me here... It's been 20+ years since I've toyed around with circuits, and I'll admit I forgot most of what I used to know. My application is as follows: I have a gauge in my car, that reads pressure (turbocharged car application). I'd...
