As the film title says, “Never say never”.
So perhaps I should not have used the word last attempt. Anyhow, a DC-stable discrete opamp in a DIP-8 Footprint has remained unfinished business for me, despite a few attempts over the years. The previous failures were largely due to DC offsets and unity-gain stability. In the last 18 months, after much contemplation, a renewed effort was made to take on this challenge one last time. This time with much better success, apparently. Nothing really ground breaking. But that is also not where the difficulty lies. Patrick .

Firstly a discussion about different basic opamp topologies.

The first topology that was built and tested, as Dual version.

The 2nd topology was based on the JC Pro-1.
Just for fun, this one is SOIC8 compatible. ![]() Patrick .

The last (but not least) has just been built today and shown here on test fixture.
Distortion measurements still have to be made. But all basic functional tests were according to expectation. Patrick .

Time to move to pre-biased transistor arrays in SOT1216 package perhaps?

If I don't care about hfe linearity, perhaps.

Absolutely fantastic!
Looking forward to seeing more about this!
