1. LM358ST Substitution Conclusion
The LM358ST can directly replace the NCV2904DMR2G in most general-purpose applications due to pin‑compatible packaging, overlapping supply voltage ranges (3‑30V vs. 3‑32V), and identical output current capability (40mA). Moreover, the LM358ST offers superior input performance—lower input bias current (20nA vs. 45nA) and lower input offset voltage (2mV vs. 7mV)—which contributes to improved accuracy, along with lower quiescent current per channel (700µA vs. 1.5mA) for better power efficiency. The main trade‑off is a slightly lower gain‑bandwidth product (800kHz vs. 1MHz), which reduces bandwidth margin in high‑frequency small‑signal amplification. Additionally, the LM358ST carries AEC‑Q100 automotive qualification, making it more suitable for automotive electronics; however, it is necessary to verify whether the original design’s wider supply‑voltage upper limit (32V) is essential. Overall, substitution is highly feasible, provided the high‑frequency response and maximum voltage requirements are reviewed against the design margin.
2. LM2904YST Substitution Conclusion
The LM2904YST can be considered as a pin‑compatible alternative, but it presents several key parametric limitations: gain‑bandwidth product is reduced to 700kHz, output current is limited to 30mA (vs. 40mA), and the quiescent current is specified as 700µA total (likely for both channels combined, whereas the original part draws 1.5mA per channel). These constraints may lead to performance degradation in applications involving higher‑frequency signal processing, driving heavier loads (e.g., low‑impedance loads), or those sensitive to power distribution. Although the LM2904YST exhibits better input characteristics (bias current, offset voltage) and carries automotive qualification, the reduced output drive capability and bandwidth require careful evaluation. If the original circuit operates near the limits of the original device—such as at high frequencies or with high output currents—the substitution carries higher risk. It remains a viable option in low‑frequency, light‑load scenarios.
