LT1097 Low Cost, Low Power Precision Op Amp UFEATURESDESCRIPTION ■ Offset Voltage 50µV Max LT®1097 achieves a new standard in combining low price ■ Offset Voltage Drift 1µV/°C Max and outstanding precision performance. ■ Bias Current 250pA Max On all operational amplifier data sheets, the specifications ■ Offset Current 250pA Max listed on the front page are for highly selected, expensive ■ Bias and Offset Current Drift 4pA/°C Max grades, while the specs for the low cost grades are buried ■ Supply Current 560µA Max deep in the data sheet. ■ 0.1Hz to 10Hz Noise 0.5µVp-p, 2.2pAp-p ■ CMRR 115dB Min The LT1097 does not have any selected grades, the ■ Voltage Gain 117dB Min outstanding specifications shown in the Features section ■ PSRR 114dB Min are for its only grade. ■ Guaranteed Operation on Two NiCad Batteries The design effort of the LT1097 concentrated on optimiz- U ing the performance of all precision specs—at only 350µA APPLICATIONS of supply current. Typical values are 10µV offset voltage, 40pA bias and offset currents, 0.2µV/°C and 0.4pA/°C ■ Replaces OP-07/OP-77/OP-97/OP-177/AD707/ drift. Common mode and power supply rejections, voltage LT1001 with Improved Price/Performance gain are typically in excess of 128dB. ■ High Impedance Difference Amplifiers All parameters that are important for precision, low power ■ Logarithmic Amplifiers (Wide Dynamic Range) op amps have been optimized. Consequently, using the ■ Thermocouple Amplifiers LT1097 error budget calculations in most applications is ■ Precision Instrumentation unnecessary. ■ Active Filters (with Small Capacitors) , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
