Dear Forum Members,
I�d like to share a few tips on the usual process I use to select an Op Amp based on pre-defined technical requirement.
The tool I use more often is the product selector, which can be accessed by clicking on the following icon from ST home page:

The next step is then to use the �Filter Panel� in order to refine the technical requirements.
Tip1: use the arrows 
Tip2: use the 
In my typical Op Amp selection, I would firstly apply filter on the more obvious (and restrictive) parameters, like voltage rating �Vcc�, �number of channel� or �automotive grade�.
Then once the selection is narrowed to a limited number of components, I would use the sorting option, by clicking on the parameter. A red arrow indicated if the list is sorted by ascending or descending order. For instance sorting by maximum supply current: In this case, the sorting option helps to address the Icc / GBW trade off.Don�t hesitate to let us know your comments about the product selector and if there are additional features you would like to see implemented.
Best regards.

Dear Jean,
In order to select an equivalent Operational Amplifier from ST portfolio, you can either:
- use the product selector as explained in previous post, by typing in your technical requirements
or
- use the cross reference tool provided in ST website.
To find the cross reference: go first to ST home page, select the ''Search'' tab on top-right of the screen, type your target device in the ''cross reference'' field.

This action opens a panel on the right where you may drag and drop the components you want to compare. Once this is done, click on the ?compare? button. 
You get the parametric comparison of devices with differences highlighted in bold.
Hope this can help!Best regards.
