Excerpt from a post to a friend fyi ....

People were discussing alternatives for LM324's recently for 5v single
supply operation.
There are a number of single supply amps available on the market.
Many sacrifice rail to rail for performance.
Here's one which is a much better performer than the LM324 but which
operates on a maximum of 5.25 volts "Vcc" and down to around 2 volts.
Gain bandwidth is 10+ MHz and slew rate is 10V/uS plus. Makes a LM324 look
very very slow (which it is)
These come in single / dual / quad versions.
The only bad thing I can see about them is the price - in ones they are
from $US2.58 for the single to $US6.40 for the quad (cheapest version of
each).

==================================================

MAX 473 single
MAX 474 dual
MAX 475 quad

Quad has 324 pinout.
Guess 474 has 358 pinout probably.

MAX !!! Vcc = 5.25v
Min Vcc is 2.x afair

>From memory 10-15 MHz gbw
10 V/uS ish slew
2ma /amp

Common mode is V+-about 1.3V down to V--0.1v

Dual and single in 8 dil

Their sole datasheet cct is a 200 KHz band pass filter - don't try this at
home with a 324.
4V output at 600 KHz.
