Interfacing RELAY with Arduino UNO

What is Relay?

Relay is an automatic switch that detects condition in circuits and causes the contacts to change their positions to close or open the circuit as required. Relays are used in many applications. When the coil of relay is energized or de-energized, its contacts are ON or Off.

In a relay we have to consider two important parameters i.e. once is the Trigger Voltage, this is the voltage required to turn on the relay that is to change the contact from Common->NC to Common->NO. Our relay here has 5V trigger voltage.

PASSWORD PROTECTED DOOR LOCK

    In this blog, we will learn about how to make password-protected door locking mechanisms. The password with by given by the serial monitor. If the password is right door will open and if it's wrong door will not open. The movement of the door is controlled by a servo motor and the status of the password is displayed on the LCD display. If the password is correct it will let the person know id is correct and if the password is wrong invalid message is displayed.  You can use Bluetooth for serial communication in real-life scenarios and feed the password to the system through Bluetooth. The application of this can be anywhere you need to use a protected Door. From the below link you can see the working of the project. The below link is of an online circuit simulation software called tinker cad. You need to just log in to the software, tinker cad is free of cost. If  you are interested to see the working go to the link below: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/cDqHb0Nnye2-harshal-sa

Our relay here has a 5V trigger voltage.   Let’s understand the interfacing of relay with Arduino I amusing online simulation software (Tinker cad). Tinker cad helps to interface, code, and simulate online. All the components I have used are present in the software. You can also build your own circuit. All the components have been labeled in the above Figure. The push-button is connected  to pin2 which is a digital pin and the relay is con
