[sdiy] Faster LM358 replacement

[Tom Wiltshire]

Could you change the filter design instead?

A MFB filter will give you better performance higher up in the stop band than a Sallen-Key for example. You might be able to design around the op-amp limitations.

Some discussion here:

The other big difference is that one is inverting and the other isn’t, but you might be able to fix that by flipping the DAC data upside down.

Turns out the LM358 doesn't do such a good job there even at just a few kHz, i.e. the response curve starts to become less steep at the higher end quickly. (which even LTspice predicts, but I didn't bother to try the circuit with a LM358 model until now)
