LM358DRG4 datasheet by Texas Instruments

LM358DRG4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum power dissipation of the LM358DRG4?
  The maximum power dissipation of the LM358DRG4 is 670mW, which is calculated based on the package thermal resistance and the maximum junction temperature.
• Can I use the LM358DRG4 as a comparator?
  While the LM358DRG4 can be used as a comparator, it's not the best choice due to its relatively slow slew rate and limited bandwidth. A dedicated comparator like the LM339 or LM2901 would be a better option.
• How do I ensure stability in my circuit when using the LM358DRG4?
  To ensure stability, make sure to decouple the power supply pins with capacitors, use a low-ESR capacitor for bypassing, and avoid using long wires or traces that can introduce noise and oscillations.
• What is the input impedance of the LM358DRG4?
  The input impedance of the LM358DRG4 is typically around 2MΩ, but it can vary depending on the specific application and circuit configuration.
• Can I use the LM358DRG4 in a single-supply configuration?
  Yes, the LM358DRG4 can be used in a single-supply configuration, but you'll need to ensure that the input signals are referenced to the midpoint of the supply voltage and that the output is properly biased.
