Single-supply general-purpose op-amp in an 8-DIP package
The 18 µV input offset voltage is notably tight for a general-purpose part, which helps maintain DC accuracy in precision loops without external trimming.
The supply span runs from 6 V minimum to 36 V maximum, so it can operate on a single 12 V or 24 V industrial rail or split supplies like ±5 V to ±15 V.
Input bias current — watch the source impedance
The 700 µA input bias current is high compared to JFET or CMOS op-amps. With a 10 kΩ source impedance, that bias current drops 7 mV across the input resistor — enough to shift the output by several offset-voltage multiples. Keep source impedances low (under 1 kΩ) or account for the voltage drop in the gain network.
It remains a current BOM line for new designs that need a through-hole general-purpose op-amp.
