Hi all,
I have 4 independant sensor boards each running on a 9V battery. Data is transmitted through wires from each of these 4 boards to a collector board that also is powered by a 9V battery. I have connected the grounds of all the sensor boards to the ground of the collector board.
The problem is when any one of the sensor boards are turned on, the other boards also get a little bit of power, even when they are switched off. I figure this problem is because of common ground.
I want a solution.
Note: The wires from the sensor board to the collector board are about 3m long.
