Product details
Overview
LT1495IN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual-channel, micropower, precision rail-to-rail input and output operational amplifier with Over-The-Top™ input capability. It delivers 1.5µA max supply current per amplifier, 375µV max input offset voltage, and operates from 2.2V to 36V supply rails across –40°C to 125°C. It is used in high-accuracy, ultra-low-power sensor signal conditioning circuits where inputs may exceed the positive supply.
For engineers reviewing the LT1495IN8#PBF datasheet, LT1495IN8#PBF pinout, LT1495IN8#PBF application, or LT1495IN8#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (8-pin PDIP), confirmed dual op amp functionality, rail-to-rail I/O behavior, reverse battery protection to –18V, and design-meaningful specs including 100V/mV open-loop gain driving 100kΩ loads.
Technical Context
The LT1495IN8#PBF implements a three-stage architecture: a rail-to-rail input stage with Over-The-Top™ operation (inputs functional up to V+ + 0.3V), a folded-cascode second stage for high voltage gain, and a rail-to-rail common-emitter output stage. Its input bias current remains ≤250pA at room temperature and ≤3.8nA over the full –40°C to 125°C range.
It achieves 90dB PSRR and CMRR at DC, maintains stable performance across 2.2V–36V supplies, and supports single-supply operation with input range extending to –0.3V. The device is characterized for guaranteed specifications over –40°C to 125°C (H-grade), with the "I" suffix in LT1495IN8 indicating industrial temperature grade - confirmed as –40°C to 125°C per datasheet Note 2 and Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual micropower precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1672IS8#PBF | 2µA max supply current; decompensated (AV ≥ 5 only); 12kHz GBW vs LT1495's 2.7kHz | Requires minimum noise-gain ≥5; unsuitable for unity-gain buffers or integrators | Select when higher speed is needed and gain ≥5 is acceptable; not drop-in for LT1495IN8#PBF |
| LT1490ACS8#PBF | 50µA supply current; 950µV max VOS; wider 2.7V–36V supply range; –40°C to 85°C only | Higher power consumption negates battery-life advantage; lower precision limits sub-mV sensing | Choose only if cost sensitivity outweighs micropower and precision requirements; different temp grade |
Compared with LT1672IS8#PBF and LT1490ACS8#PBF, the LT1495IN8#PBF uniquely balances ultra-low 1.5µA supply current, 375µV offset, rail-to-rail I/O, and –40°C to 125°C operation - making it irreplaceable in long-life, high-accuracy, wide-temperature embedded sensing.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range guaranteed for LT1495IN8#PBF?
The LT1495IN8#PBF is specified and guaranteed over –40°C to 125°C. This is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Note 2 of the datasheet, which explicitly states that LT1495H/LT1495I grades meet full performance specifications across this extended industrial temperature range. The "I" suffix denotes this high-temp grade.
Does LT1495IN8#PBF support true rail-to-rail input operation, and what does "Over-The-Top™" mean?
Yes, LT1495IN8#PBF supports rail-to-rail input operation from –0.3V to 36V. "Over-The-Top™" means its inputs remain functional even when driven up to ~0.3V above the positive supply rail (V+), enabling direct interface with sensors or signals biased above V+ without external level-shifting circuitry - a key feature confirmed in the Applications Information section.
What is the maximum load current LT1495IN8#PBF can source or sink while maintaining rail-to-rail output swing?
The LT1495IN8#PBF outputs can source and sink ≥500µA while maintaining rail-to-rail swing. Per Electrical Characteristics, VOH is V+ – 0.035V (no load) and V+ – 0.160V (100µA source), and VOL is 100mV (no load) and 410mV (100µA sink). Derating curves confirm stable operation up to 500µA, validated in Typical Performance Characteristics Figure G04/G05.
Is LT1495IN8#PBF pin-compatible with other packages in the LT1495 family, such as SO-8 or MSOP-8?
No - LT1495IN8#PBF uses the 8-lead PDIP (N8) package with standard dual op amp pinout, but it is not physically or thermally pin-compatible with SO-8 (S8) or MSOP-8 (MS8) variants. While electrical pin functions match (e.g., Pin 1 = OUT A), package dimensions, lead pitch, thermal resistance (θJA = 130°C/W for N8 vs 190°C/W for S8), and soldering profiles differ significantly.
How does LT1495IN8#PBF handle reverse battery conditions, and what protection is built-in?
The LT1495IN8#PBF includes integrated reverse battery protection rated to –18V on the V– pin. Under reverse polarity, supply current drops to <100nA (inputs grounded, outputs open), preventing damage and eliminating the need for external series diodes. This is explicitly documented in the Features list and Applications Information section.
