Caller ID Generator Circuit

I found this circuit

But the TLV2472 Op amp used is not a familar part to me, suggest alternatives?, will any single rail Op amp do?

Thanks.

will any single rail Op amp do?

I would say not. The amp is feeding into a 680R load and then into a transformer. That is a heavy load for a normal op-amp.

LM386 then?

No not at all use a couple of 10 uF caps both those op amps are low pass filters with a corner frequency of 2900 hz the gain is nominal 2 If I remember right, I usually hack some thing close and pound on it until it works the way I want it to. There is a caution that might well take the '386 off the table, If I remember right it won't swing rail to rail and I have a hunch the other one will so output P-P levels can't be as large as the others in the schematic unless you used a 9 Vsupply. Both devices are just power buffers with filters wrapped around them.

Agreed, you need a rail to rail op amp with the high drive capability. Down load the data sheet for the TLV2472 and see what you have to match.

Thanks for the replies, Digikey have them in stock, but it will have to wait as shipping is expensive for orders under £50.

Farnell and RS have no listing for this part.

There doesn't seem to be any special requirement for the opamp and the signal they are dealing with is fairly slow. So yes, a LM386 or the like will work.

The amp is feeding into a 680R load and then into a transformer.

The 680ohm resistor is nothing to work about for most opamps. On top of that, the transformer will present a pretty good ac load. I wouldn't worry about it at all.
