DESCRIPTION
The LM346 consists of four independent, high
gain, internally compensated, low power programmable amplifiers. Two external resistors (R
low the user to program the gain-bandwith product, slew rate, supply current, input bias current,
input offset current and input noise. For example
the user can trade-off supply current for bandwith
or optimize noise figure for a given s ource resistance. In a similar way other amplifier characteristics can be tailored to the application.
Except for the two programming pins at the end of
the package the LM346 pin out is the same as the
LM324 and LM348.

1. For supply voltage less than ±15V, the absolute maximum input voltage is equal to the supply voltage.
2. Any of the amplifier outputs can be shorted to ground indefinitly; however more than one should not be simultaneously shorted as the maximum
junction will be exceeded.
