Hello everyone! I hope you will be absolutely fine and having fun. Today, I am going to give you a detailed Introduction to ULN2003. We will also discuss the ULN2003 Datasheet, Pinout, Circuit Diagram & Proteus Simulation. If you have ever controlled any motor (i.e. DC Motor, Stepper Motor etc.) with a microcontroller (i.e. PIC, Arduino etc.), then you must have heard about drivers. Why do we need to use drivers? We use drivers (to control motors) because of two reasons.
First: Microcontrollers operate at 5V while motors operate at different voltages (5V, 12V, 24V etc.).
Second: Motors are Inductive loads thus they produce back emf, which may damage your microcontroller permanently (if not handled correctly).
Because of these two reasons, we have to use the driver in between t ...
