The LM358 series consists of two independent, high gain, internally frequency compensated

operational amplifiers which were designed specifically to operate from a single power supply
over a wide range of voltages. Operation from split power supplies is also possible and the low
power supply current drain is independent of the magnitude of the power supply voltage.
The LM358 are available in SMD and DIP packages

LM358 Features
- Available in 8-Bump micro SMD chip sized package, (See AN-1112)
- Internally frequency compensated for unity gain
- Large dc voltage gain: 100 dB
- Wide bandwidth (unity gain): 1 MHz (temperature compensated)
- Wide power supply range:
— Single supply: 3V to 32V
— or dual supplies: ±1.5V to ±16V
- Very low supply current drain (500 μA)—essentially independent of supply voltage
- Low input offset voltage: 2 mV
- Input common-mode voltage range includes ground
- Differential input voltage range equal to the power supply voltage
- Large output voltage swing
Applications:
Light Dependent resistor forms the –ve i/p(2) to the opamp via a voltage divider network.
Pin3 , the +ve i/p(3) is pulled high through a potentiometer.
When there is enough light the LDR resistance is quite less
i/p 3 is adjusted for a voltage to keep the o/p high generally (LED ON).
When surrounding of the LDR is darkened it develops more resistance, Increasing the voltage at
–ve i/p.
So the o/p goes low and LED turns off.
Thus the LDR sensing can be done.

Based on the same concept as LDR Snsr the above sensors are built.
