Frequently asked questions
What supply voltage does the LM380N need?
The LM380N is designed for a supply in the 10 V to 22 V range, according to its datasheet. Keep the supply within this range and provide adequate decoupling capacitors near the IC.
Can the gain of the LM380N be changed?
Yes. The default gain is 34 dB, and a capacitor connected across the gain-setting pins changes it. The datasheet shows the exact pin connections and the resulting gain.
