LM358 – Dual Operational Amplifier IC (Op-Amp, Low Power, Wide Range Applications)

The LM358 is a versatile, low-power dual operational amplifier (op-amp) IC designed for analog signal processing applications. It consists of two independent op-amps in a single package, making it suitable for use in amplification, filtering, and signal conditioning. With its wide operating voltage range and low power consumption, the LM358 is widely used in power supplies, inverters, sensor circuits, and audio processing.

Key Features:

• Dual (2) independent op-amps in one package

• Wide supply voltage range: 3V to 32V (single supply) or ±1.5V to ±16V (dual supply)

• Low supply current: 0.7 mA per amplifier (typical)

• Internally frequency compensated for unity gain

• Large DC voltage gain: 100 dB (typical)

• Wide bandwidth: 1 MHz (typical)

• Input common-mode voltage range includes ground

• Available in DIP-8, SOIC-8, and other packages

Applications:

• Signal amplification and conditioning

• Active filters and oscillators

• Voltage follower/buffer circuits

• Audio preamplifiers

• Sensor interface circuits

• Power supply control

• Inverter and motor driver circuits
