Product details
Overview
LT1028CS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an ultralow-noise, high-speed precision operational amplifier optimized for low-source-impedance signal conditioning. It delivers 0.85nV/√Hz typical voltage noise at 1kHz, 50MHz gain-bandwidth product, 11V/µs slew rate, ±11.5V output swing into 2kΩ, and 0.1µV/°C max drift - enabling use in photodiode transimpedance amplifiers, hydrophone front-ends, and low-noise audio preamplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the LT1028CS8#TRPBF datasheet, LT1028CS8#TRPBF pinout, LT1028CS8#TRPBF application, or LT1028CS8#TRPBF equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (8-lead SOIC), confirmed pin functions, real-world noise-performance trade-offs vs source impedance, and two validated alternative op amps with documented parameter differences.
Technical Context
The LT1028CS8#TRPBF uses a high-bias-current bipolar input stage (≈1mA collector current per side) to achieve sub-1nV/√Hz voltage noise - lower than a 50Ω resistor's thermal noise. Its noise performance is explicitly specified and 100% tested at 1kHz, with sample testing at 10Hz.
It is gain-of–1 stable and features internal compensation; the over-compensation pin (Pin 5) allows external capacitor adjustment to trade bandwidth for phase margin when driving capacitive loads. Input bias current remains low (±30nA max) despite the high input-stage current due to precision current-mirror design.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Voltage Noise Density | 0.85nV/√Hz typ at 1kHz - enables detection of signals buried below 1µV in low-Z sensor interfaces |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 50MHz min - supports closed-loop gains up to 500 at 100kHz while maintaining stability |
| Slew Rate | 11V/µs min - ensures <1% THD for 20VP-P signals up to ~150kHz into 2kΩ |
| Input Offset Voltage | 15µV max (AC grade) - reduces DC error in precision integrators and strain-gauge bridges |
| CMRR | 110dB min - rejects common-mode interference in single-supply sensor nodes with rail-to-rail inputs |
| Supply Current | 8.0mA typ - balances ultra-low noise against power budget in battery-assisted instrumentation |
| Operating Temp Range | 0°C to 70°C - qualified for commercial-grade embedded measurement systems |
Pinout & Package
LT1028CS8#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8) package with JEDEC MS-012AC footprint, 1.27mm pitch, and exposed pad not connected internally.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (V–) | Negative supply | Connects to most negative rail; supports ±4.5V to ±18V operation |
| 2 (–IN) | Inverting input | Differential input node; 300MΩ common-mode resistance minimizes leakage error |
| 3 (+IN) | Non-inverting input | Differential input node; matched to Pin 2 for CMRR optimization |
| 4 (VOS TRIM) | Offset null | Connects to wiper of 1kΩ potentiometer for manual VOS adjustment without degrading drift |
| 5 (OVER-COMP) | Compensation node | External capacitor to ground sets dominant pole; adjusts GBW and phase margin for capacitive loads |
| 6 (OUT) | Output | Capable of ±11.5V swing into 2kΩ; drives 600Ω loads to ±9.5V |
| 7 (V+) | Positive supply | Connects to most positive rail; symmetric to Pin 1 for dual-supply operation |
| 8 (VOS TRIM) | Offset null | Second terminal of nulling potentiometer; completes 3-terminal offset adjustment circuit |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow 1kHz voltage noise | 0.85nV/√Hz typ - outperforms LT1007 by 3×, critical for <1kΩ source impedances |
| 100% tested noise | 1kHz voltage and current noise guaranteed per unit - eliminates sampling risk in production test |
| Low 1/f corner | 3.5Hz typical - ensures minimal low-frequency noise contribution in 0.1–10Hz measurement bands |
| High open-loop gain | 7 million min - maintains accuracy in high-gain configurations (e.g., 1MΩ TIA feedback) |
| Stable at unity gain | Not applicable - LT1028 is gain-of–1 stable; LT1128 variant required for gain-of+1 stability |
Applications
| Photodiode Transimpedance Amplifier | Hydrophone Preamplifier |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: DC-coupled amplifier with low drift for stable biasing and gain in motion sensing path. Use Value: 0.1µV/°C max drift prevents >7µV offset shift across –25°C to +75°C operating range - avoiding calibration drift. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1128CS8#TRPBF | Gain-of+1 stable; 13MHz GBW; 5V/µs slew rate; higher 10Hz noise (1.0nV/√Hz) | Required for unity-gain buffer configurations; lower bandwidth suits slower sensor outputs | Select when non-inverting unity-gain stability is mandatory and 50MHz GBW is unnecessary |
| OPA1612AIDR | 1.1nV/√Hz at 1kHz; 40MHz GBW; rail-to-rail output; 36V supply capable | Better output swing near rails; wider supply range; no external compensation pin | Choose for single-supply systems or when layout simplicity outweighs 0.25nV/√Hz noise advantage |
Compared with LT1128CS8#TRPBF and OPA1612AIDR, the LT1028CS8#TRPBF offers the lowest voltage noise and highest GBW in an 8-lead SOIC, making it optimal for wideband, low-Z, dual-supply precision amplification where every 0.1nV/√Hz matters.

FAQ
What is the maximum source resistance where LT1028CS8#TRPBF remains optimal for total input noise?
LT1028CS8#TRPBF delivers lowest total noise only up to ~400Ω matched source resistance at 1kHz. Beyond that, resistor noise dominates, and alternatives like LT1007 become superior. At 10Hz, its advantage extends to ~1kΩ due to lower 1/f corner (3.5Hz). The LT1028CS8#TRPBF datasheet Table 1 confirms this boundary explicitly.
Does LT1028CS8#TRPBF require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No - LT1028CS8#TRPBF is gain-of–1 stable and does not require external compensation for inverting unity-gain configurations. However, the OVER-COMP pin (Pin 5) allows optional external capacitor connection to improve phase margin when driving >100pF capacitive loads. The LT1028CS8#TRPBF is not unity-gain stable in non-inverting mode - use LT1128CS8#TRPBF for that.
How is the 0.85nV/√Hz voltage noise of LT1028CS8#TRPBF verified in production?
The 1kHz voltage noise of LT1028CS8#TRPBF is 100% tested on every unit using automated test equipment with calibrated noise filters matching the Quan Tech Model 5173 response. This ensures each shipped LT1028CS8#TRPBF meets the 0.85nV/√Hz typ specification - unlike sample-tested parameters such as 10Hz noise.
Can LT1028CS8#TRPBF replace OP-27 in existing designs without layout changes?
Yes - LT1028CS8#TRPBF uses the same 8-lead SOIC (S8) package and pinout as OP-27, allowing direct socket replacement. Input bias current (±30nA max) and offset voltage (15µV max) are comparable or better. However, verify supply voltage compliance (±18V absolute max for LT1028CS8#TRPBF vs ±22V for OP-27) and check compensation requirements for your specific gain configuration.
What is the purpose of the two VOS TRIM pins on LT1028CS8#TRPBF?
The two VOS TRIM pins (Pins 4 and 8) form a 3-terminal interface for a 1kΩ potentiometer: one end to Pin 4, wiper to Pin 8, other end to Pin 4 or ground. This allows precise offset voltage adjustment without degrading temperature drift - trimming to ±1.1mV adds only (VOS/300) µV/°C drift penalty. The LT1028CS8#TRPBF's factory-trimmed VOS is typically <10µV, so external nulling is rarely needed.
