Product details
Overview
LT1468IS8-2#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a decompensated precision high-speed operational amplifier optimized for gain ≥ 2 configurations, delivering 200MHz gain bandwidth, 30V/µs slew rate, and ≤75µV max input offset voltage over –40°C to 85°C. It enables 16-bit DC and AC accuracy in DAC current-to-voltage conversion and ADC buffer circuits with 800ns settling to 150µV.
For engineers reviewing the LT1468IS8-2#PBF datasheet, LT1468IS8-2#PBF pinout, LT1468IS8-2#PBF application, or LT1468IS8-2#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping, temperature-grade-specific electrical limits, noise-optimized bias current cancellation, and validated stability conditions for AV = –1 and AV = 2 configurations.
Technical Context
The LT1468IS8-2#PBF uses a decompensated two-stage transconductance amplifier architecture with factory-trimmed inverting input bias current (IB– ≤ ±10nA), enabling stable operation only at closed-loop gains ≥ 2. Its input stage integrates 100Ω series resistors and back-to-back diodes for ±10mA input fault protection.
DC performance is tailored for inverting applications: input offset voltage drift is specified at ≤2µV/°C, common-mode rejection ratio reaches 110dB at ±12.5V CM input, and total input noise is minimized for source impedances between 1kΩ and 20kΩ via matched voltage/current noise density (5nV/√Hz, 0.6pA/√Hz).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 200MHz at ±15V - ensures ≥80dB open-loop gain at 100kHz for distortion suppression in 16-bit data acquisition |
| Slew Rate | 30V/µs at ±15V - supports full-scale 10V step response within 800ns to 150µV error in AV = –1 DAC I-to-V converters |
| Input Offset Voltage | ≤75µV max at ±15V, –40°C to 85°C - guarantees <1 LSB error in 16-bit systems with 10V full-scale range |
| Inverting Input Bias Current | ≤±10nA at ±15V - enables accurate low-current sensing in photodiode amplifiers without external compensation |
| Settling Time | 800ns to 150µV for 10V step, AV = –1 - meets timing requirements for 1 MSPS 16-bit ADC buffering |
| Output Swing | ±12.8V into 2kΩ at ±15V - delivers rail-to-rail usable dynamic range for ±12V signal chains |
| Input Noise Density | 5nV/√Hz voltage noise + 0.6pA/√Hz current noise - optimized for 1k–20kΩ source impedances in precision transimpedance designs |
Pinout & Package
LT1468IS8-2#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8) package with 0.150-inch body width, JEDEC MS-012 compliant, rated for –40°C to 85°C operation. Exposed pad is not present; thermal resistance θJA = 190°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NULL) | Inverting input nulling terminal | Factory-trim connection for IB– cancellation; must remain unconnected in circuit |
| 2 (–IN) | Inverting input | High-impedance node with ≤±10nA bias current; protected by 100Ω series resistor and clamp diodes |
| 3 (+IN) | Noninverting input | Untrimmed input with wider bias current variation; requires guard ring for microvolt-level accuracy |
| 4 (V–) | Negative supply | Supports ±5V or ±15V dual supplies; internal ESD clamps connect inputs to V– |
| 5 (DNC*) | Do-not-connect terminal | No internal connection; left floating per datasheet - not used for trimming or function |
| 6 (V+) | Positive supply | Accepts up to ±15V total supply; input common-mode range extends to within 0.5V of V+ |
| 7 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Capable of ±12.8V swing into 2kΩ; short-circuit current limited to ±12mA at ±15V |
| 8 (NULL) | Inverting input current trim | Factory-connected during test; must remain unconnected - no user access or routing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Decompensated stability | Guaranteed stable only at closed-loop gain ≥ 2 - enables 200MHz GBW vs 90MHz in unity-gain variants |
| Inverting input bias current trim | Factory-adjusted IB– ≤ ±10nA at 0V common mode - reduces offset error in I-to-V DAC interfaces |
| Total input noise optimization | 5nV/√Hz + 0.6pA/√Hz balanced for 1k–20kΩ sources - minimizes integrated noise in photodiode amps |
| Input protection architecture | 100Ω series resistors + back-to-back diodes on both inputs - withstands ±10mA transient currents |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision high-speed op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1468CS8-2#PBF | Same silicon, 0°C to 70°C temp grade; 150µV max VOS vs 75µV for I-grade | Not qualified for extended industrial environments; unsuitable for outdoor or automotive under-hood use | Select LT1468IS8-2#PBF when operating outside 0°C–70°C or requiring guaranteed 75µV VOS max over full range |
| LTC6228IS8#PBF | Unity-gain stable, 725MHz GBW, 500V/µs slew, but 125µV max VOS and higher 6.5mA IS | Supports AV = 1 configurations; trades DC precision for RF bandwidth - not drop-in for AV ≥ 2 only designs | Choose LTC6228IS8#PBF only when unity-gain stability or >200MHz signal bandwidth is mandatory |
Compared with LT1468CS8-2#PBF, the LT1468IS8-2#PBF guarantees tighter offset and drift specs across –40°C to 85°C; versus LTC6228IS8#PBF, it offers superior DC accuracy and lower supply current at the cost of unity-gain instability - making it optimal for fixed-gain ≥2 precision signal chains.

FAQ
What is the minimum stable gain for LT1468IS8-2#PBF?
The LT1468IS8-2#PBF is decompensated and requires a minimum closed-loop gain of 2 (AV ≥ 2) for stability. This includes inverting configurations where |AV| = RF/RG ≥ 2. At AV = 1, the part exhibits peaking and potential oscillation due to reduced internal compensation capacitance.
Does LT1468IS8-2#PBF support ±5V supplies?
Yes, LT1468IS8-2#PBF is fully specified for operation on ±5V supplies, including all key parameters: 190MHz gain bandwidth, 22V/µs slew rate, ≤175µV input offset voltage, and ±2.8V output swing into 2kΩ - enabling compatibility with low-voltage mixed-signal systems.
Why are Pins 1 and 8 labeled NULL on the LT1468IS8-2#PBF?
Pins 1 and 8 on LT1468IS8-2#PBF are factory-trim terminals for inverting input bias current cancellation and must remain unconnected. Pin 1 adjusts IB– at 0V common mode; Pin 8 is internally connected during test only - neither serves a functional role in end-user circuits.
How does LT1468IS8-2#PBF achieve 16-bit accuracy in DAC I-to-V applications?
LT1468IS8-2#PBF achieves 16-bit accuracy via ≤75µV max input offset voltage, ≤2µV/°C drift, and factory-trimmed IB– ≤ ±10nA - ensuring offset error remains below 1 LSB (153µV) in 10V full-scale DAC interfaces across –40°C to 85°C without external trimming.
Can LT1468IS8-2#PBF drive heavy capacitive loads?
LT1468IS8-2#PBF is not optimized for direct capacitive loading >100pF. For DAC outputs with tens of pF capacitance, a feedback capacitor (CF = RG × CIN / RF) is required to cancel the pole formed by feedback network and input capacitance - as documented in the Applications Information section.
