NTE976
Integrated Circuit
Operational Amplifier
Description:
The NTE976 is a general purpose operational amplifier with the necessary frequency compensation
built into a single 8鈥揕ead DIP type package. Advanced processing techniques make the input cur-
rents a factor of ten lower than industry standards like the NTE909. Yet, it is a direct plug鈥搃n replace-
ment for the NTE909 and the NTE941M.
This device provides better accuracy and lower noise in high impedance circuitry. The low input cur-
rents also make it particularly well suited for long interval integrators or timers, sample and hold cir-
cuits, and low frequency waveform generators. Further, replacing circuits where matched transistor
pairs buffer the inputs of conventional IC op amps, the NTE976 can give lower offset voltage and drift
at a lower cost.
