The LM358WN from STMicroelectronics is a dual operational amplifier (op-amp) that is designed for a wide range of analog applications. This versatile chip is a part of the LMx58 series, which are low-power, dual operational amplifiers intended for use in consumer, industrial, and scientific devices.
Featuring two independent, high-gain, internally frequency-compensated op-amps, the LM358WN is optimized for single supply operations and can operate at voltages as low as 3V, up to 32V. The low supply-current drain is independent of the magnitude of the power supply voltage, which makes the LM358WN an excellent choice for battery-powered devices.
Key Features
- Supply Voltage Range: 3V to 32V for single supply, or ±1.5V to ±16V for dual supply operations.
- Low Supply Current Drain: 700 µA—Essentially independent of supply voltage.
- Common Mode Input Voltage Range: Includes ground, making the device suitable for ground-referenced sensors.
- Differential Input Voltage Range: Equal to the power supply voltage.
- Large Output Voltage Swing: 0V to VCC - 1.5V.
- Internally Frequency Compensated: No external components required.
- Low Input Bias and Offset Parameters: Ensures accuracy in linear applications.
