I've gotten into the habbit of using the ULN 200x and 280x darlington low side drivers for controlling relay boards. I've just noticed that Allegro is phasing them out. I'm not sure if TI has plans for the same, but I thought I'd take this moment to ask this group if this is the prefered way for driving small 5V, 12V and 24V relays?
Is this the right kind of driver? Is something else more commonly used in industry for relay boards? Should I be looking at MOS switches maybe?
thanks,
Chris Maryan
