CMOS Amplifiers have 3.5 MHz gain bandwidth.

Press Release Summary:




Dual LTC6081 and quad LTC6082 CMOS Op-Amps have less than 90 µV offset over -40 to +125°C temperature range. Featuring rail-to-rail input and output stages, they achieve low frequency noise of 1.3 µVp-p and low input bias current of 1 pA max at 25°C. Also offering CMRR of 105 dB and PSSR of 90 dB, as well as signal voltage gain of 120 dB, devices consume 330 µA/amplifier. Optional shutdown feature allows current to be reduced to 0.5 µA/amplifier.

Sub-Microvolt Drift 3.5 MHz CMOS Amplifiers Feature 1pA Bias Current and Low Noise



MILPITAS, CA - September 25, 2007 - Linear Technology Corporation introduces the LTC6081 and the LTC6082: CMOS Op-Amps that push the limits of precision with 3.5MHz gain-bandwidth and less than 90µV offset over the entire -40°C to +125°C temperature range. Featuring rail-to-rail input and output stages, the dual LTC6081 and quad LTC6082 achieve low frequency noise of just 1.3µVp-p and low input bias current of 1pA max at 25°C, making these amplifiers ideal for precision instrumentation.

The LTC6081 and LTC6082 only consume 330µA per amplifier and offer an optional shutdown feature, allowing the current to be reduced to 0.5µA per amplifier, which provides further savings in battery power. In addition, the amplifiers have an uncompromising gain bandwidth of 3.5MHz and a slew rate of 1V/µs. The LTC6081 and LTC6082 offer a CMRR of 105dB and PSSR of 90dB, while the large signal voltage gain of 120dB ensures gain linearity.

"The LTC6081 and LTC6082 rival the best bipolar amplifiers in DC performance while achieving picoampere input bias currents," says Brian Black, Product Marketing Manager. "Combining this precision with an excellent speed-power ratio opens up new possibilities for designers of low-power instrumentation systems."
The LTC6081 dual is offered in the 8-pin MSOP and tiny 3mm x 3mm DFN package. The LTC6082 quad is available in the 16-pin SSOP and 5mm x 3mm DFN packages.
1,000-piece pricing starts at $1.74 each for the LTC6081 dual and $2.97 each for the LTC6082 quad.
