Figures 1 and 2 illustrate typical circuit configurations for
non-inverting, inverting, and unity gain topologies for dual
supply applications. They show the recommended bypass
capacitor values and overall closed loop gain equations.

In order to determine P , the power dissipated in the load
needs to be subtracted from the total power delivered by

These measurements are basic and are relatively easy to

however, prior knowledge of actual signal levels and load

Power dissipation should not be a factor when operating
under the stated 1000 ohm load condition. However, ap-
plications with low impedance, DC coupled loads should
be analyzed to ensure that maximum allowed junction
temperature is not exceeded. Guidelines listed below can
be used to verify that the particular application will not
cause the device to operate beyond it’s intended operat-
ing range.
The dynamic power is focused primarily within the output
stage driving the load. This value can be calculated as:

Maximum power levels are set by the absolute maximum
