Can someone recommend a single supply op-amp with better specs than an
LM358?
Thanks,

LM358?

I guess I'm looking for a single supply dual general purpose op-amp that has
higher gain and higher slew rate than an LM358. Something newer I guess.
I'm working on an infrared receiver right now, but am always throwing some
kind of amplifier circuit together.
Rail to Rail would be nice, but definitely want the output to go to ground.

No op-amp that I know of has an output that actually goes to *ground*. For the
simple reason that there will be an active device between the output terminal
and the ground ( V- ) terminal.
CMOS types may typically get within a few tens of millivolts.
If we knew more about what you're doing it would help. Of course the output can
go to ground if you're working with split supplies.

Farnell stocked the LT1013 and LT1014 the last time I looked,
but the LT1006 was a bit harder to get hold of.

DigiKey stocks them. The Linear Technology version is expensive,
e.g. LT1013CN8 at $4.25 each, but the TI LT1013CP version is more
reasonably priced, at $1.40. Both feature a nice low 300uV max
offset voltage.
* "At the input, the driving signal can fall below 0V— inadvertently
or on a transient basis. If the input is more than a few hundred
millivolts below ground, two distinct problems can occur on previous
single supply designs, such as the LM124, LM158, OP-20, OP-21, OP-220,
OP-221, OP-420:
a) When the input is more than a diode drop below ground, unlimited
current will flow from the substrate (V – terminal) to the input.
This can destroy the unit. On the LT1013/LT1014, the 400W resistors,
in series with the input (see Schematic Diagram), protect the devices
even when the input is 5V below ground.
b) When the input is more than 400mV below ground (at 25°C), the input
stage saturates (transistors Q3 and Q4) and phase reversal occurs at
the output. This can cause lock-up in servo systems.

DigiKey has this LTC-only part, $2.88 each. It's getting scarce.

< 5V Vcc:
cheaper than the LT1013 is the LMV358
more expensive than the LT1013 is the TLV2472
I don't understand what in their manufacture limits these parts to
5V operation.
