LM158: Is LM158JGB device is military grade or 883 compatible?

Part Number: LM158
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: , , LM358

ANALOG/883

I'm looking for an LM158 op-amp suitable for military applications. Among the options listed on the TI website—LM158JGB, LM158AJ/883, and LM158QML—all are marked as military-grade. Could you please clarify which versions are truly MIL-STD qualified and compliant with the 883 screening standard? Also, kindly explain the key differences between these versions. Kindly share qualification summary for these op amps.

  • Hi Sachin, 

    Could you please clarify which versions are truly MIL-STD qualified and compliant with the 883 screening standard?

    LM158JGB, LM158AJ/883, and LM158QML are versions of the LM158 op amp designed for REL and military/defense/aerospace applications. They are all rated between -55C and +125C in temperature range. 

    LM158JGB is in ceramic DIP package (8-pin), qualification level JAN (Joint-Army-Navy), basic MIL grade, basic traceability, lowest cost vs. other two part numbers. 

    LM158AJ/883, ceramic DIP package (8-pin), MIL-STD-883 compliant, full MIL-STD-883 traceability, qualified for JAN/JANTX/JANTXV, medium cost (LM158A, where A refers to A-grade, higher grade or tighter electrical specifics).

    LM158QML, ceramic or CFP package, see the attached datasheet, QML or MIL-PRF-38535 standard, some variants may have radiation hardening qualification, QML-V/QML-Q qualification, full DLA/QML traceability at lot level, highest cost among all three mentioned op amps. 

    Here is the Military grade LM358's inventory status at TI E-store.

    Here is the LM158QML inventory status at TI E-store.

    Please keep in mind that LM158QML has its own specific website product link; also listed and sold differently from standard military grade op amps.  

    Is LM158JGB device is military grade or 883 compatible?

    No/883 means it is not guaranteed to be MIL-STD-883 screened. So the selection of these op amps have to be aligned with the product's design requirements and documents.  

    If you have other questions, please let me know.

  • Thanks Raymond for the reply.

    Please let us know what all list of screening standards for basic MiL grade vs Full MIL-STD-883?

  • Hi Sachin,

    all list of screening standards for basic MiL grade vs Full MIL-STD-883?

    The basic Mil grade LM158 should have the operating temperature range from -55C to +125C. The industrial grade is typically from -40C to +125C. So the list below is the basic Mil Grade in TI E-store. 

    Full MIL-STD-883 is shown in the image in the TI E-store below, which they are MIL-STD-883 compliant with full MIL-STD-883 traceability. 

    If you have other questions, please let me know.

  • Hi Sachin,

    I am going to close the query, since I have not heard from you.

  • Hi,

    The LM158JGB IC has a part marking that reads '8771001PA LM158'. Could you please explain what each part of this marking represents? 

  • Hi Sachine,

    '8771001PA LM158'. Could you please explain what each part of this marking represents? 

    The marking is coded and documented in the following document. 

    device-marking-conventions-rev-c.pdf

    87711001 refers to date code and TI lot Trace code

    PA refers to PDIP-8 package

    LM158 refers to dual op amp

    8771001 contains Year, Month, Site and Process code. It is not clear which data code format is used. The date code format could be YYMM, YMM or YYMM in format and you may have to send me an image and tell me how old is the part. 

    In the old days, these part number pattern is documented. However, these part number format is no longer documented due to counterfeit concerns. I provide you a copy of old Device Marking Conventions FYI only. 

    If you have other questions, please let me know. 

    Best,

    Raymond
