Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes the LM308A amplifier range?

It has slightly relaxed specifications and performs reliably over a -0°C to 70°C temperature range.

Are there warnings about input voltage limits?

Yes, excessive current flows if a differential input voltage exceeds 1V unless limiting resistance is used for protection.

How must I handle high-temperature operation?

For operating at elevated temperatures, devices in the H08 package must be derated based on thermal resistance (e.g., 160 °C/W).

What makes LM108A series unique for design?

The low current error makes possible designs that are generally not practical with conventional amplifiers.
