But I think I still don't get the last bit of your question. Where do the 3.3V come from? You want the SPDT switch on the isolated side for safety I guess? Then just switch the M30xx with a switch and a resistor on that side. | |

| Jun 20, 2016 at 16:04 | comment | added | p0lt3rge1st | Thanks a ton, @KarlKarlson. Your answer is very informative, but the circuit I need needs to be 'Plug-and-Play', i.e, Something that can easily replace an SPDT Switch without any changes to the wiring. Also, I intend to use this circuit on Mains (230V AC) and having current flowing through the loads is not an option. The loads may or may not be high resistive. Point me in the right direction? :) Again, thanks a ton! | |
