Dual JFET op-amp in 8-PDIP — what it is and where it fits
The Texas Instruments TL062IP is a dual JFET-input operational amplifier in an 8-pin PDIP package. It delivers a gain bandwidth product of 1 MHz and a slew rate of 3.5 V/µs, drawing 200 µA per channel from a supply spanning 10 V to 30 V. The JFET input stage keeps input bias current at 30 pA, making it a natural fit for high-impedance sensor interfaces, photodiode amplifiers, audio preamps, and general-purpose signal conditioning in industrial control, instrumentation, and consumer audio gear. The -40°C to 85°C operating range covers most factory-floor and outdoor telecom environments.
Lifecycle and sourcing — active, no obsolescence risk
The TL062IP carries an active lifecycle status and is ROHS3 compliant. There is no last-time-buy window, no NRND flag, and no official successor — it remains a standard catalog item. For dual-sourcing or a surface-mount alternative, the TLV9362IDDFR (10.6 MHz, 25 V/µs, rail-to-rail output) is a higher-speed, modern replacement in a smaller DFN package, though it is not pin-compatible. The TL062IP is available through independent distribution and is quoted to order against an RFQ; current pricing and lead time are confirmed at quote time.
