#Drive optoisolated Output DC load with BEE Board

This article illustrates how to drive DC loads (0-48V) up to 3.5A with BEE Board and [DAISY-19](/DAISY-19).

This module extends the BEE Board capabilities to drive DC loads such as :

*  Resistive Heaters
*  DC Motors
*  Peltier Cells
*  Light bulbs
*  Solenoids, etc

See [DAISY-19](/DAISY-19) for more configurations.

## You can drive up to 11 optoisaleted channels

#Application examples

##Control RGB strip LED with BEE Board and DAISY-19

This application shows how to drive a strip of RGB LEDs up to 3.5A to create ambient lighting effects. 
This application is fully working and can be made with [BEE Board](/BEEBOARD) and [DAISY-19](/DAISY-19) without any welding.

The hardware required is:

* a [BEE Board](/BEEBOARD)
* a [DAISY-19](/DAISY-19) 4 channel industrial range optoisolated output
* a daisy flat cable 
* a RGB strip LED with common anode
* a 12V Power Supply
