Op-Amp Families

General-purpose (LM358/LM324), precision (OP07, OPA2188), high-speed (OPA837, AD8055), low-power (MCP6001), rail-to-rail and instrumentation amplifiers.

Key Parameters

Supply range, input offset voltage, GBW (gain-bandwidth), slew rate, quiescent current, input bias current and package. Precision designs need low offset and drift.

Applications

Signal conditioning, filters, instrumentation, current sensing and audio. Match GBW to your signal frequency with margin.

Sourcing

General op-amps are cheap and available; precision and high-speed parts have tighter supply. HuaXinGou sources TI/ADI/ST/domestic op-amps with alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is GBW?
Gain-bandwidth product — the frequency where open-loop gain reaches 1; choose 10x your max signal frequency.
What is rail-to-rail?
Input/output can swing close to both supply rails, useful for low-voltage single-supply designs.
How do I choose between single and dual op-amps?
Dual packages (e.g., LM358) save space when two channels are needed; singles offer layout flexibility.
