NE5534P Pinout & vs NE5534AP | NE5534AN Comparison

NE5534P Pinout

The NE5534P is a high-performance low-noise operational amplifier widely used in audio and precision signal applications. When using the pinout:

Power supply connections (Pins 4 and 7) must be correctly provided, typically ±15V. Reversing polarity or applying incorrect voltages can damage the IC.

IN+ (Pin 3) and IN− (Pin 2) are the non-inverting and inverting inputs respectively. Signal sources should be connected here according to your desired amplifier configuration (inverting or non-inverting).

Pin 6 (OUT) is the output pin and should not be heavily loaded without proper buffering or compensation.

Pins 1 and 8 (BALANCE and COMP/BAL) are used for offset voltage trimming and frequency compensation. If not used, follow the datasheet guidelines for proper connection (e.g., sometimes tying to ground through a resistor or capacitor).

Pin 5 (COMP) is typically used for external compensation components to ensure stability in high-gain or wide-bandwidth applications.

Always consult the manufacturer’s datasheet when designing with the NE5534P to ensure optimal performance and safe operation.
