What the OP08GP is and where it fits
The OP08GP is a single-channel general-purpose operational amplifier from Analog Devices in an 8-DIP through-hole package. It delivers a 0.12 V/µs slew rate with 1 nA input bias current and 250 µV input offset voltage, running off a single 36 V supply. This is a precision, low-speed op-amp suited for sensor conditioning, instrumentation front-ends, and control-loop signal scaling where bandwidth is secondary to DC accuracy and noise rejection. The 0°C to 70°C commercial temperature range fits benchtop instruments, office equipment, and indoor industrial controllers.
Package and mounting — through-hole reality
The 8-DIP (0.300", 7.62 mm) body with through-hole mounting is a legacy footprint. It mates to standard prototyping boards, socket strips, or wave-solder PCB layouts.
Lifecycle and sourcing
The OP08GP is listed as Active by the manufacturer. No last-time-buy or end-of-life notices are in effect, so it can be specified into new designs without an immediate obsolescence risk. Sourced and quoted to order through independent distribution.
