Hello...
I'm working with the electrically-fired nichrome rocket ignitors for a
rocketry project.
Is there a way to wire a number of ignitors to a single switch so that
each time you close the switch it activates the next ignitor in the
chain, burning it up, and somehow making the next ignitor ready for
electrical activation? This would allow, for example, 10 rockets to be
fired in succession by pressing the button 10 times.
I DON'T want to push the button once and fire all 10 electric matches!
If there isn't a way to do this, I will continue with my plan to use a
PIC microprocessor, but that means relays and/or transistors and more
cost if I wanted to control more than 5 or 10 ignitors.
Thank you in advance!
