The ULN2804A is a monolithic high-voltage, high-current Darlington transistor array, comprising eight npn Darlington pairs. All units feature high-voltage outputs with common-cathode clamp diodes for switching inductive loads. The collector-current rating of each Darlington pair is 500 mA. Outputs and inputs can each 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. |
