LM741 General-Purpose Operational Amplifier DIP-8

The LM741 is a DC-coupled, high-gain voltage amplifier commonly used in a variety of analog circuits. It can function as a comparator, analyzing the difference between inverting and non-inverting inputs, or as a voltage amplifier in signal conditioning applications. Thanks to its simplicity and stability, the LM741 is ideal for educational use, prototyping, and general electronic designs requiring basic analog processing.

The LM741 is a classic, general-purpose operational amplifier IC widely used in analog electronics for signal processing and amplification tasks. Designed for stable and reliable performance, it integrates a single high-gain op-ampin one package and supports both single and dual power supply operation.
