The ULN2001A, ULN2002A, ULN2003A,
ULN2004A, ULQ2003A, and ULQ2004A are
high-voltage, high-current Darlington transistor
arrays. Each consists of seven npn Darlington pairs that feature high-voltage outputs with common-cathode clamp diodes for switching inductive loads. The collector-current rating of a single Darlington pair is 500 m A. The Darlington pairs can be paralleled for higher current capability. Applications include relay drivers, hammer drivers, lamp drivers, display drivers (LED and gas discharge), line drivers, and logic buffers. For 100-V (otherwise interchangeable) versions of the ULN2003A and ULN2004A, see the SN75468 and SN75469, respectively.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which ULN series should I use for CMOS devices?
The ULN2004A or ULQ2004A can operate directly from CMOS devices using supply voltages between 6 V and 15 V.
What type of loads are these driver arrays designed to switch?
They feature common-cathode clamp diodes for switching various inductive loads, including relays, lamps, and LED displays.
What is the current rating limitation for a single Darlington pair?
The collector-current rating for one Darlington pair is 500 mA, but multiple pairs can be paralleled for higher total current capability.
