I have a relay, which operates at 24v. I want to design a switching circuit to operate the switching operation of relay????
 

Hi,

so what exactely is your question?

For now we know "relay" and "24V".

We don´t know if this is the coil or contact voltage, nor AC or DC.
Also we don´t know how you want to to control it.

Relay is a single pole double throw switch. when a 24V dc is applied, the pole switches to NC pin of relay and for 0V dc it switches back to NO pin of relay. I want to operate this switching action using a transistor.
I want to know the transistor that would solve my purpose ???
 

Hi,

Coil current?
Transistor input signal?

Connect0715207, you are asking a question like "How do I travel from point A to point B" without telling us where 'A' and 'B' are, what is between them and what method of transport you have available. If you were going from Delhi to Gurgaon the answer would be walk, bus, car or train. If you were going from Delhi to NewYork yuor options would be very different.

Relays come in sizes from very small to the size of a building, the method of driving them is very different so we need a lot more information about the relay type and what it's purpose is. We also need to know what power is available to energize it's coil and what signal it is that tells it when to operate or not.

But a relay and a transistor work with magic, don't they? They turn on when something gets near them and they turn off when something moves away.
 

That's only Canadian relays Audioguru, the rest of the world has inferior types that need electricity to work them.
