Q. What sort of power supply can be used with this I.C? Linear or SMPS?
A. Hi Jack. Thank you for your question. You can use either type but if the application is for audio/sensitive applications then a linear type would be preferred as less noise is present than using SMPS type which could affect its operation.

Q. Could you recommend an op amp that would replace the now obsolete LM386 that you have on your website?
A. Hi Bill. Thank you for your question. We still stock the low voltage audio amplifier LM386 as either a LM386N-1 (82-0264) or a LM3863-1 (82-0266).

Q. Hello
Please can you tell me if i can use an LM324N IC operational amplifier ic to replace an BA10324A operational amplifier ic.
Kind Regards
A. Hi Derek. Thank you for your question. These both have the same outputs so the LM324 would be a suitable replacement as far as we can see.

Q. Do the low power variations run on 1.5 - 15V? Can these be used to provide an input to a Genie microcontroller using a non-inverting setup?
A. Hi Stephen. This may work using a non inverting output. It should work better with using one of the standard outs - we have not tried it but the theory is sound.
