I am trying to drive a low current 5VDC relay with a Darlington driver (ULN2003). When I try to drive it with the driver it chatters.
I have a good solid 5VDC supply, and have connected it as in the Manual3 shows. I do not have a Diode across the coil. Should I have one? I can drive the relay direct with no problem. I am wondering about the darlington. Perhaps it isn't being driven hard enough?
I also tried paralleling multiple channels in the darlington, still no change.
Relay has a 52 ohm coil.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
