The LM358 is a dual operational amplifier that comes in a standard dual in-line package (DIP) with 8 pins. This versatile product is popular for use in a wide range of applications due to its low power consumption and low input bias current. It contains two independent, high-gain, frequency-compensated operational amplifiers designed to operate from a single power supply over a wide range of voltages. The LM358 is equipped with short-circuit protection and offset-voltage nulling capability, making it ideal for use in applications such as transducer amplifiers, DC gain blocks, and all the conventional operational amplifier circuits. The pinout of the LM358 includes the power supply terminals, inverting and non-inverting input terminals, and the output terminals. This straightforward pinout makes it easy to integrate into various circuit designs. With its robust performance and ease of use, the LM358 is a popular choice among engineers and hobbyists for a wide range of electronic projects and applications.
