LM 358

Description

The LM358 is a dual operational amplifier (op-amp) integrated circuit (IC) manufactured by various semiconductor companies, including Texas Instruments. It is widely used in analog signal processing applications due to its versatile performance, low cost, and ease of use. The LM358 features two independent op-amps in a single package, making it suitable for applications requiring dual-channel amplification with minimal external components.
