Hey y'all,
I have a couple of DOD R825 compressors. These are older ones that feature a DBX 2150A VCA chip. They're actually pretty decent compressors, IMO, and I've heard about a nice mod for them in which you replace the 5532 opamps with AD826's.
They're in sockets, so it should be a really easy job, but I've never dealt with switching out opamps before, and I'm not sure exactly which one I should get. I did a search for AD826, and found this:
AD826 datasheet and product info | Low Cost, High Speed, Low Power Dual Operational Amplifier | High Supply Voltage Amplifiers (>=+12V) | Analog Devices
When I clicked on "Check Price and Availability," I found that there are several different AD826 models from which to choose:
AD826ANZ
AD826AR
AD826ARZ
etc.
Does anyone know which one I would need? And could you explain why/what these suffixes mean?
Thanks!
