November 18, 2009 - Featuring rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, Models LTC6246, LTC6247, and LTC6248 are single, dual, and quad op amps, respectively, with 90 V/µs slew rate and 4.2 nV/√Hz wideband noise. Input offset voltage is specified at 500 µV max and open loop gain is 45 V/µV. Employing bias current cancellation to achieve max of 350 nA input bias current over most of input common mode voltage range, op amps are suited for applications with high source resistance such as portable instrumentation.

LTC6246: Highest Efficiency Rail-to Rail Op Amp Achieves 180MHz at 1mA


MILPITAS, CA - November 12, 2009 - Linear Technology introduces the LTC6246, LTC6247 and LTC6248, a family of op amps that utilizes a power-efficient SiGe process to achieve 180 MHz gain-bandwidth product and 90V/us slew rate, while consuming just 1mA maximum supply current per amplifier. These single, dual and quad op amps also feature rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, and 4.2nV/√Hz wideband noise.

Although these parts were designed to provide the very best speed/power efficiency available in a rail-to-rail amplifier, DC performance is not sacrificed to achieve it. Input offset voltage is specified at 500uV max and open loop gain is 45V/uV. Bias current cancellation is employed to achieve a maximum of 350nA input bias current over most of the input common mode voltage range, allowing these products to be used in many applications with high source resistance such as portable instrumentation and other battery-powered or heat-constrained precision systems.

This LTC6246 family is available in versions fully specified over the commercial (0°C -70°C), industrial (-40°C to 85°C) and high temperature (-40°C to 125°C) ranges. A shutdown feature reduces current consumption to 42uA in the SOT-23 6-lead single and MSOP-10 dual versions. The dual LTC6247 is also available in a tiny 2mm x 2mm x 0.55mm package, as well as the industry-standard MSOP-8 and SOT-23 8-lead packages. The LTC6248 is available in a 16-lead MSOP package. Prices start at $1.39 each for the single, $1.95 each the dual, and $3.07 each for the quad in 1k quantities. For more information, visit www.linear.com.
