ULN2003A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The ULN2003A is a high-voltage, high-current Darlington driver IC from STMicroelectronics, featuring 7 NPN Darlington pairs. Each pair has a 2.7KΩ resistor for TTL and 5V CMOS compatibility, eliminating the need for logic buffers.

 

This IC is capable of sinking up to 500mA per channel with a withstand voltage of 50V, making it suitable for driving high-load currents. It operates over a wide voltage range and is designed for direct connection to TTL, CMOS, and PMOS logic. The device includes clamp diodes for switching inductive loads.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a typical output voltage of 50V and a typical output current of 500mA. The typical collector-emitter saturation voltage is 1.6V at 350mA input current. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

 

The ULN2003A is available in a 16-pin DIP package and is suitable for applications such as relay drivers, clamp drivers, stepper motor drivers, and solenoid drivers.
