EEVblog 1697 - What's Up With Different Brand Op-Amps?
🕑 Added 2025-07-18 06:43:07 +0000 UTCPre-release.
I thought this forum question would make an interesting enough video.
Why does this Uni-T UDP6731 PSU use different brand LM358 opamps on the same PCB?

Fascinating how large corporations push for as many of their electronic parts be generic to save them money making their product. But “heaven help you” if you suggest their final product is itself generic. We are comparing laptop vendors for our next three-year leases and each vendor is intolerant of their laptop being seen as a generic equivalent to someone else’s for general office worker use. Eye roll. Sorry: It’s just another laptop.
