hello, I am a student at RV COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING Bengaluru. I am a part of a hybrid team named Team Chimera which aims in building a hybrid car. So with regard to that we are designing a TSAL(Tractive system active light). This TSAL glows when TSV(tractive system voltage) or the battery(which is used to run the motor) voltage goes above 60V. I am in need of a ciruit which gives out 5V when the battery voltage/TSV crosses 60V. I made use of a zener diode in series with a resistor but its not efficient. the zener diode breaksdown at less than 60V also.I need a suuden 0 to 5V transition occuring exactly at 60V(TSV) and 0V for less than 60V(TSV).
Can anyone help me out please????
