The following is a list of LM-series integrated circuits. Many were among the first
analog integrated circuits commercially produced since late 1965; some were groundbreaking innovations. As of 2007, many are still being used.
The LM series originated with
integrated circuits
An integrated circuit (IC), also known as a microchip or simply chip, is a set of electronic circuits, consisting of various electronic components (such as transistors, resistors, and capacitors) and their interconnections. These components a ...

.
The prefix LM stands for ''linear monolithic'', referring to the analog components integrated onto a single piece of silicon.
Because of the popularity of these parts, many of them were second-sourced by other manufacturers who kept the sequence number as an aid to identification of compatible parts.
Several generations of
pin-compatible descendants of the original parts have since become
''de facto'' standard electronic components.
Operational amplifiers
Differential comparators
Current-mode (Norton) amplifiers
Instrumentation amplifiers

4000-series integrated circuits
The 4000 series is a CMOS logic family of integrated circuits (ICs) first introduced in 1968 by RCA. It was slowly migrated into the 4000B buffered series after about 1975. It had a much wider supply voltage range than any contemporary logic fami ...
