Quad JFET op-amp in a hermetic CDIP — built for the harsh edge
The 5962-9460206QCA is a quad JFET-input operational amplifier from the standard military/aerospace product line, packaged in a 14-lead ceramic DIP (14-CDIP) with through-hole mounting. It delivers a 10 MHz gain-bandwidth product and a 70 V/µs slew rate, with an input bias current of just 1 pA — typical for a JFET front end. The supply span runs from 4.5 V to 38 V, so it works on a single 5 V rail or split ±15 V supplies.
Package and mounting
A 70 V/µs slew rate means this op-amp can swing a 10 V output step in about 140 ns. That's fast enough to handle high-speed ADC driver stages, video line drivers, or pulse amplifier chains without introducing slew-induced distortion. For comparison, a general-purpose quad op-amp like the TLV9351IDCKR manages 20 V/µs — fine for audio or slow sensor signals, but it would round off a fast pulse.
Quad-channel power budget and output drive
The whole quad package draws 730 µA total supply current — that's about 182 µA per amplifier, which is low for a JFET part with this speed. If you're replacing a plastic-packaged quad op-amp on a board that runs hot, the CDIP's thermal resistance is higher than a TSSOP, so keep the ambient airflow in mind at the 48 mA output limit.
Lifecycle and sourcing — still in active production
For BOM resilience, the best approach is to qualify the part into the design and maintain a relationship with a distributor that can source the ceramic DIP variant reliably.
