Product details
Overview
LT1079ISW#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower quad precision operational amplifier optimized for single-supply operation at 5V, featuring 60 μV max input offset voltage, 0.7 μV/°C max offset drift, and 50 μA max supply current per amplifier in the 16-lead SOIC-Wide (SW) package. It delivers rail-to-rail output sinking capability down to ≤130 mV above ground while sourcing/sinking 5 mA, enabling direct interface with low-voltage microcontrollers and battery-powered sensor front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LT1079ISW#TRPBF datasheet, LT1079ISW#TRPBF pinout, LT1079ISW#TRPBF application, or LT1079ISW#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed performance over –40°C to +85°C, 200 kHz gain bandwidth, 0.07 V/μs slew rate, and ability to operate from as low as 2.2 V supply - critical for lithium-cell and energy-harvesting systems requiring precision amplification without pull-down resistors.
Technical Context
The LT1079ISW#TRPBF employs an all-NPN output stage enabling true ground-swing capability when sinking current, eliminating need for power-wasting pull-down resistors. Its input stage incorporates series input protection resistors and phase-reversal immunity, allowing safe operation with inputs up to –1 V below ground without latch-up or output inversion.
Designed specifically for micropower precision, it achieves 0.6 μVP-P (0.1–10 Hz) voltage noise and 3 pAP-P current noise - performance typically found only in op amps consuming 10× more supply current - while maintaining 97 dB CMRR and 102 dB PSRR at 5 V/0 V supply.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1079SW#TRPBF | Same die, commercial-grade (0°C to 70°C), 100–480 μV max VOS, 0.7–4.0 μV/°C drift | Lower cost; suitable for non-industrial environments where extended temperature range not required | Select when operating ambient stays within 0–70°C and long-term drift tolerance >0.7 μV/°C is acceptable |
| OP4177ARUZ | Higher precision (60 μV max VOS, 0.6 μV/°C drift), but 500 μA per amp supply current - 10× higher | Used in lab-grade equipment where noise and drift dominate over power; not viable for battery operation | Select only when ultra-low drift (<0.6 μV/°C) is mandatory and supply current >400 μA is acceptable |
Compared with LT1079SW#TRPBF, LT1079ISW#TRPBF provides guaranteed performance over –40°C to +85°C with tighter drift control, while OP4177ARUZ trades 10× higher supply current for marginally better DC specs - making LT1079ISW#TRPBF the optimal choice for industrial battery-powered systems demanding both precision and micropower operation.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the LT1079ISW#TRPBF?
The LT1079ISW#TRPBF is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C (Industrial grade). This is explicitly confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Electrical Characteristics sections, where all "●"-denoted specs apply across this full range under 5V/0V supply conditions. Junction temperature must not exceed 110°C.
Does the LT1079ISW#TRPBF require external pull-down resistors to achieve ground-swing output?
No, the LT1079ISW#TRPBF does not require external pull-down resistors. Its all-NPN output stage sinks current to within ≤130 mV of ground at 100 μA load, as verified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Maximum Output Voltage Swing (Output Low)" for the I-grade SW package. This eliminates power loss and board space associated with pull-down networks.
Can the LT1079ISW#TRPBF operate from a single 3.6 V lithium-ion cell?
Yes, the LT1079ISW#TRPBF supports minimum supply voltage of 2.2 V (per Electrical Characteristics, Note 5), making it fully compatible with 3.6 V nominal Li-ion cells across their discharge range (≈4.2 V to 2.7 V). Performance remains specified down to 2.2 V, though offset voltage may shift by ≤300 μV near the lower limit.
What is the typical 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz output voltage noise of the LT1079ISW#TRPBF?
The LT1079ISW#TRPBF exhibits 0.6 μVP-P typical input-referred voltage noise over 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz, as stated in the Features list and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table (TYP value for "Input Noise Voltage"). This low 1/f noise enables high-fidelity DC and low-frequency signal amplification in precision sensor interfaces.
Is the LT1079ISW#TRPBF pin-compatible with other LT1079 variants like LT1079CN or LT1079IN?
No, the LT1079ISW#TRPBF is not pin-compatible with LT1079CN (14-pin PDIP) or LT1079IN (14-pin CERDIP). It uses a 16-pin SOIC-Wide (SW) package with two NC pins (8 and 16) and different pin mapping - confirmed in the PACKAGE/ORDER INFORMATION diagram. Board layout must be specific to the SW footprint.
