Dual op-amp in a DIP — what it is and where it fits
The LT1213ACN8#PBF is a dual general-purpose op-amp from Linear Technology in an 8-pin DIP package. It delivers a 28 MHz gain-bandwidth product and a 12 V/µs slew rate, running off a single or split supply from 2.5 V to 36 V. The industrial temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) makes it a candidate for outdoor telecom gear, motor-drive signal conditioning, or factory-floor sensor buffers — places where a through-hole part is easier to swap on-site than a surface-mount equivalent. Each channel can source or sink 50 mA, enough to drive a modest ADC input or a long twisted-pair line.
Supply range and input offset — the practical numbers
Supply span from 2.5 V to 36 V covers single-supply and bipolar rails. Input offset voltage is 125 µV typical.
