Product Overview
The NTE976 is a single general-purpose operational amplifier IC housed in an 8-lead dual in-line package (DIP-8). Designed as an industry-standard replacement for ECG976 and SK3596 devices, this through-hole component supports dual supply rails up to ±18V for analog signal processing, active filtering, audio buffering, and comparator stages.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which legacy components does the NTE976 replace?
The NTE976 serves as a direct cross-reference replacement for ECG976 and SK3596 operational amplifiers.
What package style is this integrated circuit?
It is an 8-pin through-hole Dual In-line Package (DIP-8), suitable for standard circuit board pads or 8-pin IC sockets.
Why buy a single NTE976 unit rather than a bulk surplus lot?
Repairing a single channel on an audio board or test instrument rarely calls for a dozen loose parts. This listing provides an individually packaged, unopened NOS unit in its original sealed bag, photographed exactly as it sits on the shelf. Shipping is $8 flat rate, free once the order passes $28, and orders leave the Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
When a classic analog board goes quiet, finding a clean drop-in replacement is half the battle. Seat this fresh DIP-8 into the socket and put that circuit back to work.
