JFET op-amp for signal conditioning and audio paths
It operates from a split supply spanning 6 V to 36 V, drawing just 1.4 mA per amplifier. The JFET input stage delivers a typical input bias current of 20 pA, making it suitable for high-impedance sensor interfaces, audio preamplifiers, and active filter stages where low input current drift matters.
Automotive grade in a commercial temperature envelope
That qualification signals it was manufactured on a line and with process controls aligned to automotive reliability standards — useful for designs that need the AEC-Q100 certificate for a bill of materials even if the ambient temperature stays within commercial limits.
Through-hole DIP-8 — legacy footprint for repair and prototyping
Housed in an 8-DIP (0.300-inch, 7.62 mm pitch) package with through-hole mounting, the TL082CN is a direct fit for existing PCB layouts that use the standard DIP-8 footprint. This form factor is common in bench prototypes, rework of older audio equipment, and low-volume builds where hand-soldering is preferred over SMD reflow.
