Can ULN2003 be used for dc motor?

Sure; ULN2003 isn’t specifically for stepper motors and it could drive a normal DC motor (a small one). But it would only be able to drive it one direction. For forward and reverse you need a different driver.

What is the function of ULN2003?

ULN2003 IC is one of the most commonly used Motor driver IC generally used when we need to drive high current loads using digital logic circuits like Op-maps, Timers, Gates, Arduino, PIC, ARM etc.

What is a 5V stepper motor?

Stepper Motor (5V) | Smart Prototyping. Description. This is a great first stepper motor, good for small projects and experimenting with steppers. This uni-polar motor has a built in mounting plate with two mounting holes. There are only 32 step (11.25 degree) per revolution, and inside is a 1/16 reduction gear set.

What kind of DC motor does an ULN2003 use?

)/ MC1413 is a 7-bit 50V 500mA TTL-input NPN Darlington driver. This is more than adequate to control a four phase unipolar stepper motor such as the KP4M4-001. This circuit is not design PCB.

How does the ULN2003 stepper motor driver work?

The ULN2003 stepper motor driver PCB provides a direct drive interface between your microcontroller and stepper motor. The PCB provides 4 inputs for connection to your microcontroller, power supply connection for the stepper motor voltage, and ON/OFF jumper, a direct connect stepper motor header and 4 LEDs to indicate stepping state.

How to connect an Arduino to an ULN2003 driver?

The wiring diagram/schematic below shows you how to connect the ULN2003 driver board to the 28BYJ-48 stepper motor and the Arduino. The connections are also given in the table below. Wiring diagram for ULN2003 driver with 28BYJ-48 stepper motor and Arduino.

What kind of power supply does an uln2803 use?

The ULN2803 will drop about 1.5V across the driver so you will be better off using a 4.5 to 5V power supply for the motor. Connections would be: Nuts and Volts Column #6 gives a brief overview of the use of a ULN2003. The schematic shown has a relay, but you can substitute a DC motor.
