Title: op amps
Post by: 4krow on January 25, 2012, 04:24:45 AM

I must admit, this might not be the best place to ask questions about op amps(regarding that this site deals with better stuff than op amps!). Regardless, I run into the darn things like it or not and don't know enough about them to usually do much with them. My question here is, even though I have already ordered 2134 opa to replace some out dated 4136 opa, I still wonder if I have made the best choice for substitution. How might I go about about finding info such animals and compare them?  Thx, Greg

wow, lightening fast reply. Anyway, I took a very quick peek at a little of the data. I will have to read into this more. It looks dismal for the 2134, as there are better choices out there. However, I will still say that the 2134 is a jump in performance over the 4136. Good thing I am not depending on opa to do my music, whew! Thank you very much for the reply. This site has been a great help to me.
