Program Arduino Sensor for 10V DC Output

AI Thread Summary
To program a sensor for a 10V DC output using an Arduino, additional hardware is necessary since the Arduino only provides 5V. A 10V power supply is required, along with a switching mechanism controlled by the Arduino. Suggestions include using a 12V supply and an operational amplifier (op-amp) to achieve the desired output. Programming alone will not suffice to manipulate the voltage output. Proper hardware integration is essential for successful sensor operation.

Hey guys

I am trying to program a sensor using an arduino. The sensor is operational at 10V DC and an arduino only gives out like 5V. I wanted to know how can I manipulate it to output 10V.

Do I need some hardware or can I do it with just programming?

Thanx in advance!

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
