The LM358PSRG4 is a versatile and widely-used operational amplifier (op-amp) designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments (TI), a leader in semiconductor solutions. This particular model is part of the LM358 series, which is known for its dual operational amplifiers integrated into a single chip.
Key Features
- Dual Operational Amplifiers: The LM358PSRG4 contains two independent high-gain frequency-compensated operational amplifiers designed to operate from a single power supply over a wide range of voltages.
- Single or Dual Supply Operation: It can operate at supply voltages ranging from 3V to 32V, or ±1.5V to ±16V when using a dual supply, making it extremely versatile for various applications.
- Low Supply Current Drain: This op-amp boasts a low supply current drain, which is independent of the magnitude of the supply voltage, thus making it suitable for battery-powered devices and energy-efficient applications.
- Common Mode Input Voltage Range: The common mode input voltage range includes ground, and the device can also operate with a differential input voltage range equal to the power supply voltage.
- Large Output Voltage Swing: The LM358PSRG4 can output a voltage swing 0V to VCC -1.5V, which is quite close to the supply rails.
