[sdiy] important questions!

[Arun Bohm]

Hi
   Why do so many DIY-ers seem to be into the TL082? What are it's 
characteristics and what is it's pin-out. In terms of studies I've only just 
got to the part where we discuss (in books) how the gain is affected by the 
frequency of the input.
   Also, another question. What is it about non-linear devices which allows 
for the sums and differences across it's junctions? I understand that it has 
to do with some fourier interpretaion of the seemingly parrabolic curve 
which describes it's voltage current relationship. But it has been some time 
since I did a fourier transform, and even then only for homework.
   Was this first discovered theoretically and then applied experimentally. 
Had to have been. Not anything like observing forces between current 
carrying wires, a totally experimental discovery.
Love,
Bohm.
