LM358AWDT Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum power dissipation of the LM358AWDT?
  The maximum power dissipation of the LM358AWDT is 670mW, which is calculated based on the package thermal resistance and the maximum junction temperature.
• Can I use the LM358AWDT as a comparator?
  While the LM358AWDT is an op-amp, it can be used as a comparator in some applications. However, it's not recommended for high-speed or high-precision comparator applications due to its limited bandwidth and slew rate.
• How do I ensure stability when using the LM358AWDT in a feedback loop?
  To ensure stability, make sure to follow proper compensation techniques, such as adding a capacitor in the feedback loop or using a resistor in series with the feedback capacitor. Also, ensure that the gain and phase margins are sufficient to prevent oscillations.
• What is the input impedance of the LM358AWDT?
  The input impedance of the LM358AWDT is typically around 2MΩ, but it can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
• Can I use the LM358AWDT in a single-supply configuration?
  Yes, the LM358AWDT can be used in a single-supply configuration, but you'll need to ensure that the input common-mode voltage is within the specified range and that the output voltage swing is sufficient for your application.
