00 — Overview

What the LM321H family does

The LM321H/358H/324H family are high voltage bipolar operational amplifiers spanning single, dual, and quad channel variants. They operate on single supplies from 3V to 36V or dual supplies from ±1.5V to ±18V. Key parameters include a 1MHz gain-bandwidth product, 250μA quiescent current per amplifier, and a maximum input offset voltage of 5mV. These devices feature a large output voltage swing reaching Vcc-1.5V and support an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. Engineers typically use them in walkie-talkies, battery management solutions, transducer amplifiers, oscillators, and portable systems requiring robust low voltage performance.
