## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=COM-27840:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/COM-27840:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

The LM258P is a great, easy-to-use dual-channel Op-amp. Op-amps have so many applications we figured Sparkfun should probably carry at least one in a DIP package. LM258P applications include transducer amplifiers, DC gain blocks and all the conventional op-amp circuits.

If you're looking for a good, standard op-amp the LM258P should fill most of your needs. It can handle a supply of 3-32VDC and source up to 20mA per channel. This op-amp is great if you need to operate two individual op-amps from a single power supply. Comes in an 8-pin DIP package.
