The Texas Instruments LM358P is a dual-channel general-purpose operational amplifier in an 8-pin DIP through-hole package. It delivers 700 kHz gain-bandwidth product and a 0.3 V/µs slew rate from a single supply spanning 3 V to 30 V, drawing 500 µA per channel.
It belongs in indoor equipment — office peripherals, consumer electronics, laboratory instruments, HVAC controllers — not in engine bays, outdoor telecom cabinets, or factory-floor enclosures where ambient can push past 70°C. If your BOM calls for the LM358P but the system sees -20°C startup, look at the industrial-temperature LM358 variants or the TLV series.
