Introduction to LM1458
LM1458 is a dual general purpose Operational Amplifier (Op-amp). Its has two builtin amplifiers having common power supply as well as common mode voltage. This condition is to make both of the amplifiers dependent on each other. LM 1458 has several amazing features. For example, low power consumption, lath-up free operation, short circuit protection etc. LM-1458 is shown in the figure given below.
1. LM1458 Pins
- LM 1458 has eight (8) pins total, having separate individual function.
- All of the eight pins are given in the table shown below in a periodic manner.
2. LM1458 Pinout
- Pinout representation displays the configuration of all the pins, moreover it helps users for their better understanding.
- LM-1458 pinout diagram is shown in the figure given below.
3. LM1458 Packages
- LM 1458 has two different types of packages e.g. PDIP and SOIC.
- I have provided both of these packages in the table shown below.
4. LM1458 Symbolic Representation
- The symbol or a symbolic representation of a device shows the internal structure of that device.
- LM 1458 symbolic representation is shown in the figure given below.
- You can see from the above figure that LM 1458 has two builtin amplifiers named as A and B in the figure.
- The inputs of the A amplifier are connected to pin no. 2 & 3 and its output is connected to pin no. 8.
- The inputs of the B amplifier are connected to pin no. 5 & 6 and its output is connected to pin no. 8.
