Product details
Overview
LT1124CN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual low-noise, high-speed precision operational amplifier in an 8-lead PDIP package. It delivers 2.7nV/√Hz typical input voltage noise, 4.5V/µs slew rate, and 12.5MHz gain-bandwidth product, with 100µV max input offset voltage and 112dB min CMRR. It is used in microvolt-accuracy threshold detection and strain gauge amplifiers where low noise and high DC precision are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LT1124CN8#PBF datasheet, LT1124CN8#PBF pinout, LT1124CN8#PBF application, or LT1124CN8#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, validated PDIP pin mapping, real-world use cases in instrumentation and audio, and confirmed alternative op amps for design flexibility and supply continuity.
Technical Context
The LT1124CN8#PBF implements a bipolar input stage optimized for low 1/f and broadband voltage noise, with 100% tested noise per amplifier at 1kHz. Its architecture achieves high open-loop gain (5 million min) and exceptional PSRR (116dB min) without sacrificing speed-enabling stable unity-gain buffer operation and precise active filtering up to 100kHz.
It features matched internal transistor pairs for consistent channel-to-channel performance, supports ±22V absolute maximum supply, and operates across 0°C to 70°C. Input protection diodes allow robust handling of overvoltage transients, while the PDIP package enables through-hole prototyping and legacy system upgrades.

| 4 | V– | Negative supply rail - accepts –22V max; must be decoupled locally |
| 5 | V+ | Positive supply rail - accepts +22V max; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass |
| 6 | +IN B | Non-inverting input B - electrically isolated from Channel A |
| 7 | –IN B | Inverting input B - supports independent feedback configuration |
| 8 | OUT B | Amplifier B output - fully independent, no crosstalk above 130dB @ 10Hz |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-noise op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP-27GP | Higher 4.5nV/√Hz noise (sample-tested), lower 1.7V/µs slew rate, no 100% noise test per channel | Less suitable for >50kHz precision AC-coupled signal chains requiring guaranteed noise floor | Select OP-27GP only when cost sensitivity outweighs need for guaranteed low-noise performance and higher speed |
| LT1028ACN8#PBF | Lower 0.95nV/√Hz noise but higher 3.5mA supply current; single-channel only; same N8 package | Requires two devices for dual-channel designs, increasing board area and BOM count | Choose LT1028ACN8#PBF when ultimate voltage noise dominates over channel count and power constraints |
Compared with OP-27GP and LT1028ACN8#PBF, the LT1124CN8#PBF uniquely balances dual-channel integration, 100% per-amplifier noise validation, and 4.5V/µs speed in a legacy-compatible PDIP package-making it optimal for upgrading existing dual-op-amp instrumentation without layout changes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for LT1124CN8#PBF?
The LT1124CN8#PBF is specified for operation from 0°C to 70°C. This commercial-grade temperature range is clearly defined in the Order Information table and applies to all N8-package variants with 'C' suffix. It does not support extended industrial or military ranges unless explicitly marked with 'I', 'A', or 'M' grade suffixes.
Does LT1124CN8#PBF have the same pinout as the OP-270?
No, the LT1124CN8#PBF uses the standard dual-op-amp PDIP pinout (OUT A, –IN A, +IN A, V–, V+, +IN B, –IN B, OUT B), whereas the OP-270 is a quad op amp in 14-pin packages. However, the LT1124CN8#PBF is pin-compatible with the OP-270's dual-section footprint when used in socket adapters or discrete dual-channel layouts.
Is LT1124CN8#PBF RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, LT1124CN8#PBF carries the '#PBF' suffix, indicating it is manufactured with 100% matte tin lead finish and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The part marking 'LT1124CN8' and packaging documentation confirm full lead-free compliance without exemptions.
Can LT1124CN8#PBF drive a 600Ω audio load directly?
No, LT1124CN8#PBF is not optimized for low-impedance audio line driving. Its output stage is rated for ≥2kΩ loads per the Electrical Characteristics table. Driving 600Ω risks excessive distortion and thermal stress; a dedicated audio line driver like the LT1364 should be used downstream if required.
How is the 100% noise testing implemented for LT1124CN8#PBF?
Each amplifier inside the LT1124CN8#PBF undergoes individual 1kHz voltage noise measurement during final test. This guarantees ≤4.2nV/√Hz for both channels - a key differentiator from sample-tested competitors like the OP-270. The test method follows Linear Technology's proprietary low-frequency noise characterization protocol, documented in the Applications Information section.
