The maximum power supply voltage for the LM358DRE4 is ±18V or 36V total supply voltage.
Yes, the LM358DRE4 is suitable for audio applications due to its high gain-bandwidth product and low noise characteristics.
Yes, the LM358DRE4 can be used as a comparator, but it's not the best choice due to its limited slew rate and bandwidth. A dedicated comparator like the LM339 would be a better option.
To protect the LM358DRE4 from overvoltage, use voltage clamping diodes or a voltage regulator to limit the supply voltage to the recommended maximum.
The LM358DRE4 is rated for operation up to 125°C, but its performance may degrade at high temperatures. Ensure proper heat sinking and thermal management to maintain reliability.
