Product details
Overview
ICL7631CCSE from Maxim Integrated is a triple monolithic CMOS operational amplifier optimized for ultra-low input bias current (1 pA typical), programmable quiescent current (10 μA / 100 μA / 1 mA per amplifier), and rail-to-rail output swing (±4.8 V at ±5 V supply, RL = 1 MΩ). It operates from ±1 V to ±8 V dual supplies or 2 V to 16 V single supplies and features 10¹² Ω input impedance - ideal for pH meter front-ends and photodiode amplification.
For engineers reviewing the ICL7631CCSE datasheet, ICL7631CCSE pinout, ICL7631CCSE application, or ICL7631CCSE equivalent, this device delivers verified low-noise current (0.01 pA/√Hz), temperature-stable offset voltage (15 µV/°C max), and configurable bandwidth (0.044–1.4 MHz) across its three independent amplifiers in a 16-pin SOIC package.
Technical Context
The ICL7631CCSE implements a pin-selectable quiescent current architecture via dedicated IOC SET pins per amplifier, enabling dynamic trade-offs between power (10 μA to 1 mA per channel), bandwidth (0.044 MHz to 1.4 MHz), and slew rate (0.016 V/µs to 1.6 V/µs). Its CMOS input stage ensures 1 pA bias current and 10¹² Ω input resistance, critical for high-impedance sensor interfacing.
Each amplifier supports independent offset nulling using external 25 kΩ potentiometers across OFFSET terminals, with full nulling range guaranteed at IQ ≥ 100 μA. The device is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and requires no external compensation components - unlike the externally compensated ICL7614 variant.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Bias Current | 1 pA typical at +25°C - enables accurate measurement of picoamp-level photocurrents without signal corruption. |
| Input Impedance | 10¹² Ω - preserves signal integrity when driving from high-Z sources like glass pH electrodes or photodiodes. |
| Quiescent Current | Programmable per amplifier: 10 μA / 100 μA / 1 mA - allows power/bandwidth optimization per channel. |
| Output Voltage Swing | ±4.8 V at ±5 V supply, RL = 1 MΩ - delivers >96% rail-to-rail dynamic range for maximum signal fidelity. |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 0.044 MHz (IQ = 10 μA) to 1.4 MHz (IQ = 1 mA) - scales linearly with supply current for predictable gain-bandwidth control. |
| Input-Referred Noise Current | 0.01 pA/√Hz at 1 kHz - minimizes current noise contribution in transimpedance amplifier configurations. |
| Common-Mode Rejection Ratio | 70–96 dB depending on IQ - maintains accuracy in noisy industrial environments with varying common-mode offsets. |
Pinout & Package
ICL7631CCSE is housed in a 16-pin Small Outline (SO) package (SA suffix), 3.9 mm × 9.9 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant. Pin 1 marked by notch or dot; pin 5 and pin 15 internally connected to V−.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUTA | Amplifier A output - drives loads up to 10 kΩ at 1 mA IQ with 1.6 V/µs slew rate. |
| 2 | IOC SET A | Quiescent current select for Amp A - connect to V+ (10 μA), mid-supply (100 μA), or V− (1 mA). |
| 3 | +INA | Inverting input of Amp A - high-impedance node for precision feedback networks. |
| 4 | OUTB | Amplifier B output - independently configurable; shares same IQ selection logic as Amp A. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-input-current op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1052CS8#PBF | Single-channel, auto-zero architecture; 0.1 pA bias current; fixed 1.2 mA supply; no IQ selection. | Superior DC precision but higher power; lacks multi-channel integration and programmable IQ. | Select when absolute offset drift (<0.05 µV/°C) outweighs power and channel count requirements. |
| OPA377AIDR | Single-channel, rail-to-rail I/O; 0.2 pA bias current; fixed 760 µA supply; 3 MHz GBW. | Higher bandwidth and lower noise voltage (7 nV/√Hz), but no quiescent current flexibility or triple configuration. | Select when wideband signal integrity is prioritized over ultra-low power and multi-channel consolidation. |
Compared with LTC1052CS8#PBF and OPA377AIDR, the ICL7631CCSE uniquely combines triple-channel integration, per-amplifier quiescent current programmability, and sub-picoamp bias current - enabling compact, power-optimized, multi-sensor analog front-ends unachievable with single-channel alternatives.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the ICL7631CCSE?
The ICL7631CCSE has an absolute maximum total supply voltage (V+ to V−) of +18 V. It operates across a wide functional range: ±1 V to ±8 V dual supplies or 2 V to 16 V single supplies. Exceeding +18 V risks permanent damage, and operation above ±8 V dual or 16 V single is not characterized or guaranteed per datasheet specifications.
How do I configure the quiescent current for each amplifier in the ICL7631CCSE?
Each amplifier in the ICL7631CCSE uses its dedicated IOC SET pin (pins 2, 8, 12) to set quiescent current: connect to V+ for 10 μA, to a mid-supply voltage (V− + 0.8 V to V+ − 0.8 V) for 100 μA, or to V− for 1 mA. This per-channel control allows independent optimization of bandwidth, slew rate, and power consumption across the three amplifiers in the ICL7631CCSE.
Does the ICL7631CCSE require external frequency compensation components?
No, the ICL7631CCSE is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external capacitors. Unlike the ICL7614 variant, it contains built-in compensation circuitry - eliminating layout complexity and ensuring robust stability across all gain configurations without additional components.
Can the ICL7631CCSE be used in single-supply configurations?
Yes, the ICL7631CCSE supports true single-supply operation from 2 V to 16 V. Its input common-mode range extends to within 0.4 V of V− and 0.6 V of V+, and its rail-to-rail output swings to within millivolts of both rails - enabling direct interfacing with microcontrollers and ADCs operating from the same supply.
What is the guaranteed input offset voltage specification for the ICL7631CCSE at room temperature?
The ICL7631CCSE (C-grade, 0°C to +70°C) has a guaranteed input offset voltage of 5 mV maximum at +25°C and 7 mV maximum across its full operating temperature range. This value corresponds to the "C" suffix in the part number and is validated per the ICL76XXC electrical characteristics table in the official datasheet.
