IT358
Note 1 The dissipation is the total of both amplifiers—use external resistors, where possible, to allow
the amplifier to saturate or to reduce the power which is dissipated in the integrated circuit.
Note 2: Short circuits from the output to V+ can cause excessive heating and eventual destruction.
When considering short circuits to ground, the maximum output current is approximately 40mA
independent of the magnitude of V+. At values of supply voltage in excess of +15V, continuous
short-circuits can exceed the power dissipation ratings and cause eventual destruction. Destructive
dissipation can result from simultaneous 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
go to the V+ voltage level (or to ground for a large overdrive) for the time duration that an input is
driven negative. This is not destructive and normal 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 IT358, all temperature specifications are limited to -25℃ ≤ Ta ≤ 85℃ .
Note 5: Vo=1.4V, Rs = 0Ω with V+ from 5V to 30V; and over the full input common-mode range (0V to
V+ -1.5V) at 25°C
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
negative by more than 0.3V (at 25°C). The upper end of them common-mode voltage range is V+ -1.5V
(at 25°C), but either or both inputs can go to +32V without damage, independent of the magnitude of
V+.
Note 8: Due to proximity of external components, insure that coupling is not originating via stray
capacitance between these external parts. This typically can be detected as this type of capacitance
increases at higher frequencies.
