Note 1 The dissipation is the total of both amplifiers—use e xte rna l re sistors, whe re possible , to a llow

the amplifier to saturate or to reduce the power which is dissipated in the integrated circuit.

When considering short circuits to ground, the maximum output current is approximately 40mA

s hort-circuits can exceed the power dis s i pation ratings and caus e eventual des t ruction. Des t ructive

dissipation can result from simultane ous shorts on all amplifiers.

Note 3: This input current will only exist when the voltage at any of the input leads is driven negative.

It is due to the collector-base junction of the input PNP transistors becoming forward biased and

thereby acting as input diode clamps. In addition to this diode action, there is also lateral NPN parasitic

transistor action on the IC chip. This transistor action can cause the output voltages of the op amps to

driven negative. This is not destructive and norma l output states will re-establish when the input

voltage, which was negative, again returns to a value greater than -0.3V (at 25°C).

Note 4: With the D358, all temperature specifications are limited to -25℃

≤ Ta ≤ 85℃ .

Note 5: Vo=1. 4V, Rs = 0

Note 6: The direction of the input current is out of the IC due to the PNP input stage. This current is

essentially constant, independent of the state of the output so no loading change exists on the input

lines.

Note 7: The input common-mode voltage of either input signal voltage should not be allowed to go

(at 25°C), but either or both inputs can go to +32V without damage, independent of the magnitude of

Note 8: Due to proximity of external components, insure that coupling is not originating via stray

capacitance between these external parts. This ty pically can be detected as this ty pe of capacitance

increases at higher frequencies.
