Product details
Overview
LT1077CN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower precision operational amplifier optimized for single-supply 5V operation, featuring 40µV max input offset voltage, 60µA max supply current, 0.5µVP-P (0.1Hz–10Hz) voltage noise, 250kHz gain-bandwidth product, and rail-to-ground output swing while sinking current. It serves as a low-power replacement for OP-07/AD707 in battery-powered sensor front-ends and 4–20mA current loops.
For engineers reviewing the LT1077CN8#PBF datasheet, LT1077CN8#PBF pinout, LT1077CN8#PBF application, or LT1077CN8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include verified micropower precision performance at 5V/0V supply, guaranteed ground-sinking output without pull-down resistors, confirmed pin compatibility with industry-standard nulling circuits, and documented replacement capability for OP-07/OP-77/AD707 with >30× supply current reduction.
Technical Context
The LT1077CN8#PBF employs an all-NPN output stage enabling true ground-swing capability (≤7mV output low, ISINK = 100µA) without external pull-downs, unlike competing micropower op amps requiring ≥600mV headroom or discrete resistors. Its input stage includes series protection resistors allowing safe operation with inputs down to –5V relative to V–, preventing phase reversal even at –1.0V input under single-supply conditions.
It achieves precision via internal laser-trimmed offset (40µV max, 0.4µV/°C drift) while maintaining 94dB min CMRR and 100dB min PSRR over 0°C to 70°C - specifications fully validated at both 5V/0V and ±15V supplies, with noise performance (0.7Hz 1/f corner) optimized for low-frequency instrumentation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 60µA max at 5V/0V - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in portable instrumentation. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 40µV max - lowest among micropower op amps, eliminating need for external nulling in most precision DC applications. |
| 0.1Hz–10Hz Voltage Noise | 0.5µVP-P - supports high-resolution DC-coupled measurements in strain gauge and thermopile interfaces. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 250kHz - sufficient for 20kHz bandwidth difference amplifiers with 1MΩ source impedances. |
| Output Swing (Low) | ≤7mV above ground at 100µA sink - enables direct interfacing with ADC reference inputs and logic-level comparators. |
| Common Mode Range | Extends 0.3V below V– - allows input signals to go slightly negative in single-supply systems without damage or phase reversal. |
| Offset Voltage Drift | 0.4µV/°C max - ensures <1µV total drift over 0°C–70°C, critical for unattended environmental monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
N8 package: 8-lead PDIP (narrow, 0.300-inch width), JEDEC MS-012, RoHS-compliant, operating temperature range 0°C to 70°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8 | VOS TRIM | Nulling terminals for external 10k potentiometer - maintains full plug-in compatibility with OP-07/AD707 trimming circuits. |
| 2 | –IN | Inverting input - high-impedance (≥6GΩ common-mode) node for precision difference amplifier configurations. |
| 3 | +IN | Non-inverting input - protected against –5V overvoltage, enabling robust interface with transducer outputs. |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply - accepts 0V (ground) in single-supply mode; input common-mode extends 0.3V below this rail. |
| 5 | NC | No connect - unused internal node; must remain unconnected per datasheet. |
| 6 | OUT | Amplifier output - all-NPN stage sinks current to within 7mV of V– without pull-down resistors. |
| 7 | V+ | Positive supply - operates from 2.2V to 18V; minimum 2.2V enables use with depleted alkaline cells. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single-supply ground-sinking output | Eliminates 10k–30k pull-down resistors required by OP-90/LM4250, saving >80µA in 4–20mA loop transmitters. |
| Phase reversal protection | Prevents output lock-up when input dips to –1.0V, enabling reliable operation with transient-prone industrial sensors. |
| Megohm-source difference amplifier | Supports 1MΩ source resistors with <80µVP-P noise (0.1Hz–10Hz), enabling high-impedance thermocouple conditioning. |
| Plug-in replacement for OP-07/AD707 | Same pinout, same nulling circuit, same PCB footprint - reduces redesign time while cutting supply current by 30–60×. |
| Ultra-low 1/f noise corner | 0.7Hz corner frequency delivers 0.5µVP-P low-frequency noise - matches performance of op amps drawing 10× more current. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP-07CP | Higher 1.2mA supply current, 60µV offset, no ground-sinking output - requires pull-down resistor for 0V swing. | Not suitable for battery-powered designs; used where absolute lowest offset dominates power concerns. | Select OP-07CP only if sub-10µV offset is mandatory and power budget exceeds 1mA. |
| AD707JN | 800µA supply current, 25µV offset, ±13V output swing - lacks single-supply ground-sinking capability. | Requires dual supply; preferred in legacy ±15V test equipment where noise floor is secondary to offset. | Choose AD707JN when replacing aging ±15V systems and PCB layout cannot accommodate new footprints. |
Compared with OP-07CP and AD707JN, the LT1077CN8#PBF delivers equivalent precision (40µV vs 25–60µV offset) at <1/30th the supply current, with unique ground-sinking output enabling true single-supply operation - making it the sole option for long-life, low-voltage, high-impedance sensor interfaces.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LT1077CN8#PBF?
The LT1077CN8#PBF has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of ±22V, with recommended operating range from 2.2V to 18V for single-supply use (V+ to V–). At 5V/0V operation, it delivers specified performance including 40µV max offset and 60µA max supply current - making LT1077CN8#PBF ideal for coin-cell and two-AA battery systems.
Does LT1077CN8#PBF require external nulling components in typical applications?
No - the LT1077CN8#PBF features factory-laser-trimmed input offset voltage (40µV max), eliminating the need for external nulling in most precision DC applications. External nulling via pins 1 and 8 remains supported for ultra-high-accuracy requirements (<10µV), preserving full compatibility with OP-07/AD707 PCB layouts. This design choice makes LT1077CN8#PBF suitable for space-constrained layouts where trim-pot real estate is unavailable.
Can LT1077CN8#PBF drive capacitive loads without instability?
Yes - the LT1077CN8#PBF is internally compensated and stable with capacitive loads up to 1000pF, as verified in datasheet Figure TPC12. For loads >100pF, phase margin remains >54° at 5V/0V supply, ensuring monotonic step response in sensor buffering and filter applications. This stability eliminates the need for isolation resistors in ADC driver configurations, simplifying design and preserving signal integrity in LT1077CN8#PBF-based data acquisition systems.
What is the guaranteed output voltage swing for LT1077CN8#PBF at 100µA sink current?
At 100µA sink current and 5V/0V supply, the LT1077CN8#PBF guarantees an output low voltage of ≤150mV (typical 90–130mV), with worst-case 150mV specified across 0°C to 70°C. This rail-to-ground capability enables direct interfacing with low-threshold comparators and ADC reference inputs without level-shifting circuitry - a key differentiator from competing micropower op amps that require pull-down resistors to achieve similar swing.
How does LT1077CN8#PBF handle input voltages below ground in single-supply operation?
The LT1077CN8#PBF incorporates series input protection resistors allowing safe operation with inputs down to –5V relative to V– (0V), preventing latch-up or destruction. Crucially, its phase reversal protection circuitry ensures the output remains stable and non-inverting even when the input reaches –1.0V - unlike OP-90 or LM124 which exhibit catastrophic output inversion. This makes LT1077CN8#PBF robust for industrial sensor interfaces subject to ESD transients or wiring faults.
