Texas Instruments LM118/LM218/LM318 Operational Amplifiers Datasheet
This document provides a technical overview of the Texas Instruments LM118, LM218, and LM318 fast general-purpose operational amplifiers. These devices are designed for applications requiring wide bandwidth and high slew rate, featuring internal unity-gain frequency compensation to simplify circuit design without external components.
The datasheet details three distinct models characterized for different operating temperature ranges: the LM118 (-55°C to 125°C), the LM218 (-25°C to 85°C), and the LM318 (0°C to 70°C). It includes comprehensive electrical specifications, pin configurations for various packages (D, FK, JG, P), and dissipation rating tables.
