Six-channel general-purpose op-amp in a through-hole PDIP
The Analog Devices ADD8706ACPZ-REEL7 is a six-channel, general-purpose operational amplifier with rail-to-rail output and a -3 dB bandwidth of 6 MHz. The six circuits share a common supply spanning 4.5 V to 16 V, drawing 4.5 mA quiescent current.
Slew rate and bandwidth — what they mean for signal conditioning
With a slew rate of 6 V/µs and a -3 dB bandwidth of 6 MHz, each amplifier channel can handle moderate-speed signals — think sensor conditioning, active filters up to a few hundred kilohertz, or multi-channel ADC drivers. The rail-to-rail output stage swings within millivolts of each supply rail, preserving dynamic range when running from a single 5 V or 12 V rail.
Package reality: Bulk, not reel — what the -REEL7 suffix means here
That mismatch matters: if your pick-and-place line expects a reel, this Bulk-delivered part will need manual handling or re-reeling. Confirm the physical form factor with your distributor before committing the BOM.
The PDIP package limits top-end thermal dissipation compared to surface-mount equivalents, but the 4.5 mA supply current per device keeps self-heating low.
Lifecycle: still in active production
For production BOMs, this part remains a low-risk procurement line — no forced redesign or second-sourcing urgency from obsolescence.
