Overview

The RC4580IP is a dual-channel high-performance audio operational amplifier designed for low-noise and high-bandwidth applications. It provides a 12 MHz gain bandwidth product and a 5V/us slew rate, making it suitable for high-fidelity audio signal paths. This device is offered in an 8-pin PDIP package, facilitating easy prototyping and through-hole assembly.

Why Choose This Part

The RC4580IP offers a low input offset voltage of 500 uV and very low total harmonic distortion, making it a cost-effective drop-in replacement for NJM4580 and NE5532 devices. Its ability to operate on a wide supply range from 2V to 18V provides significant flexibility for both battery-powered and mains-powered audio equipment.

Applications

Audio Preamplifiers
Utilizing its 0.8 nV/rtHz noise density to maintain high signal integrity in the initial stages of audio signal chains.
Headphone Amplifiers
Leveraging a 50mA output current capability to drive low-impedance loads directly.
Active Filters
Providing stable performance and wide bandwidth for precise frequency response shaping in crossover networks.
Industrial Measurement
Serving as a robust buffer or gain stage in instrumentation where a wide supply voltage up to 18V is required.

Getting Started

For initial prototyping, the 8-pin PDIP package is compatible with standard 0.1 inch pitch breadboards and sockets. Ensure proper decoupling with 0.1uF ceramic capacitors placed close to the VCC and VEE pins to maintain stability at the 12 MHz bandwidth. Refer to the TI datasheet for pin compatibility when replacing legacy LM833 or NJM4558 devices.
