[sdiy] PCB op-amp layout - 2x2 or 1x4

[Justin Owen]

I guess there's probably not a hard right or wrong answer to this - but, when laying out a tight PCB with a lot of op-amps - do you choose 2x or 4x op-amp packages?

The 2x potentially gives you more placement flexibility - but increases overall parts count, the 4x decreases the part count but potentially leaves less room for routing traces between amps...

...thoughts on this from experience?

Thanks,
