The LM759 and LM77000 are high performance operational
amplifiers that feature high output current capability. The
LM759 is capable of providing 325 mA and the LM77000
providing 250 mA. Both amplifiers feature small signal characteristics that are better than the LM741. The amplifiers
are designed to operate from a single or dual power supply
with an input common mode range that includes the negative supply. The high gain and high output power provide
superior performance. Internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe area compensation are employed making
the LM759 and LM77000 essentially indestructible.

Metal Can Package (LM759CH/LM759MH)
The LM759 in the 8-Lead TO-99 metal can package must
be used with a heat sink. With
g
15V power supplies, the
LM759 can dissipate up to 540 mW in its quiescent (no
load) state. This would result in a 100
ature to 125
order to avoid this problem, it is advisable to use either a slip

on or stud mount heat sink with this package. If a stud
mount heat sink is used, it may be necessary to use insulating washers between the stud and the chassis because the
case of the LM759 is internally connected to the negative
power supply terminal.
Plastic Package (LM759CP/LM77000CP)
The LM759CP and LM77000CP are designed to be attached by the tab to a heat sink. This heat sink can be either
one of the many heat sinks which are commercially available, a piece of metal such as the equipment chassis, or a
suitable amount of copper foil as on a double sided PC
board. The important thing to remember is that the negative
power supply connection to the op amp must be made
through the tab. Furthermore, adequate heat sinking must
be provided to keep the chip temperature below 125
der worst case load and ambient temperature conditions.
