Overview

The NE5532AP is a dual high-performance operational amplifier characterized by its low noise and high output-drive capability. It features internal frequency compensation and is designed for high-quality audio and data signal processing. This variant comes in an 8-pin PDIP through-hole package, making it popular for prototyping and industrial audio equipment.

Why Choose This Part

The NE5532AP offers a superior balance of 10 MHz bandwidth and low noise performance at a cost-effective price point. Its ability to drive 600 ohm loads directly and its integrated protection features simplify the design of high-fidelity signal chains. The through-hole PDIP package allows for easy socketing and maintenance in long-lifecycle industrial products.

Applications

Professional Audio Equipment
Used in mixers and pre-amplifiers due to its low noise density of 5 nV/rtHz and 10 MHz gain bandwidth.
AV Receivers and Players
Ideal for DVD recorders, netbooks, and multichannel video transcoders where signal integrity is critical.
Active Filter Circuits
Utilized in high-order filters thanks to its dual-channel configuration and 9V/us slew rate.
Industrial Signal Conditioning
Provides output short-circuit protection and input-protection diodes for robust performance in control systems.

Getting Started

To use the NE5532AP, provide a stable power supply up to 18V and ensure proper decoupling with 0.1uF ceramic capacitors near the V+ and V- pins. Since it is a through-hole component, it can be directly inserted into a breadboard or an 8-pin DIP socket for rapid prototyping. Refer to the datasheet's typical application circuits for feedback resistor values to set the desired gain.
