The ULN2066B is a large-scale integrated current-drive circuit and an Arduino robot motion drive H-bridge. It is a 16-channel Darlington array designed to interface a microprocessor to low-power drivers. This IC is based on the same technology as the popular ULN2003 series but is designed to drive higher currents. ULN2066B is an integrated design, which includes the input stages, output stages, and control circuitry all on one chip. It is widely used in hobby robotics, DIY projects, Arduino projects, and other automation projects.

The ULN2066B is composed of 16 independent Darlington drivers arranged in pairs connected in parallel. Each driver consists of an input stage and an output stage. The input stage consists of two N-channel MOSFETs. The output stage consists of two NPN Darlington transistors. The Darlington pair provides high current gain and fast response times. The outputs are open-collector and integrate flyback diodes for protection.

The ULN2066B can control a wide variety of low voltage, low current loads. It can control LEDs, relays, motors, and other inductive loads with 3.2V to 35V supply voltages of up to 100mA. For larger motors, the ULN2066B can be used in conjunction with an external power supply and driver circuit to provide more than 500mA of current. The ULN2066B is also capable of driving logic circuitry such as logic level shifters and voltage inverters.

The ULN2066B is relatively simple to interface with any microcontroller. The pin assignments are standard, with an input connected to each Darlington pair of the array. When the voltage of the input pin is above 2V, the transistor will turn on, the input will be pulled up, the output will be pulled down, and the transistor will stay in the on state until the input voltage drops below 2V. The ULN2066B is also capable of being used with PWM signals from the microcontroller to provide variable speed or direction control over motors. Additionally, the ULN2066B can be used as a current driver for LED arrays or LCD displays.

The ULN2066B is an ideal choice for applications such as remote control, robotic motion drive systems, display and backlight control, factory automation, automotive applications, and more. It offers high current driving capability and protection against overloads, without the cost and complexity of external power-stage components. With its wide voltage and current range, the ULN2066B is an efficient and cost-effective solution for many applications.
