Product details
Overview
LT1881AIS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual rail-to-rail output, picoamp-input precision operational amplifier optimized for high-accuracy signal conditioning in low-power, single-supply systems. It features 50 μV max input offset voltage, 200 pA max input bias current, rail-to-rail output swing within 40 mV of V– and 220 mV of V+, and operates from 2.7 V to 36 V total supply. It is used in thermocouple amplifiers, bridge transducer conditioners, and battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF datasheet, LT1881AIS8#TRPBF pinout, LT1881AIS8#TRPBF application, or LT1881AIS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultralow input bias current stability over temperature, guaranteed rail-to-rail output performance at ±15 V and 5 V supplies, matched amplifier characteristics for differential sensing, and direct drive capability for 1000 pF capacitive loads in unity-gain follower configurations.
Technical Context
The LT1881AIS8#TRPBF integrates two matched precision op amps in a single SO-8 package, with input stage architecture optimized for picoamp-level bias current cancellation and sub-50 μV trimmed offset. Its internal compensation ensures unity-gain stability with up to 1000 pF capacitive load without external compensation.
It supports both single-supply (e.g., 5 V, 0 V) and split-supply (e.g., ±15 V) operation, with input common-mode range limited to V– + 1.0 V to V+ – 1.0 V and full rail-to-rail output swing specified across –40°C to 85°C. Channel matching parameters-including offset voltage match (≤70 μV), bias current match (≤300 pA), and CMRR match (≥102 dB)-are explicitly characterized for dual-amplifier correlation in precision differential circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 50 μV maximum - enables high-resolution DC-coupled measurement without calibration drift in 16-bit DAC output buffers. |
| Input Bias Current | 200 pA maximum - preserves accuracy with high-impedance sources (>10 MΩ) such as photodiodes or pH electrodes. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 40 mV of V– and 220 mV of V+ - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage single-supply systems (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V). |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 36 V total - supports wide industrial input rails including 3.3 V, 5 V, ±5 V, ±12 V, and ±15 V without redesign. |
| Capacitive Load Drive | Stable with 1000 pF at AV = 1 - eliminates need for isolation resistors in sensor interface filters or ADC driver stages. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems requiring extended thermal reliability. |
| Offset Voltage Drift | 0.8 μV/°C maximum - ensures <100 μV total offset shift over full temperature range, critical for unattended long-term monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
LT1881AIS8#TRPBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic SO (S8) package, 3.988 mm × 4.902 mm × 1.752 mm, with gull-wing leads and Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT A) | Amplifier A output | Delivers rail-to-rail buffered signal; capable of sourcing/sinking ≥1 mA while maintaining 220 mV headroom to V+ and 40 mV to V–. |
| 2 (–IN A) | Inverting input A | High-impedance node (≥100 GΩ common-mode); requires guard ring layout to prevent leakage-induced error. |
| 3 (+IN A) | Non-inverting input A | Matches –IN A in bias current (ΔIB+ ≤300 pA); no external balancing resistors needed due to on-chip cancellation. |
| 4 (V–) | Negative supply | Reference for dual-supply operation or ground for single-supply; must be decoupled with ≥0.1 μF ceramic capacitor. |
| 5 (V+) | Positive supply | Accepts 2.7 V to 36 V total supply; PSRR ≥106 dB ensures immunity to supply ripple in noisy environments. |
| 6 (+IN B) | Non-inverting input B | Matched to +IN A for differential pair use; offset voltage match ≤70 μV enables <0.005% gain error in instrumentation amp front-ends. |
| 7 (–IN B) | Inverting input B | Paired with +IN B for second channel; common-mode rejection ratio ≥104 dB minimizes interference in balanced sensor interfaces. |
| 8 (OUT B) | Amplifier B output | Independent rail-to-rail output; channel separation ≥120 dB prevents crosstalk in dual-channel data acquisition. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow Input Bias Current | 200 pA max enables accurate amplification of nanoamp-level currents from high-Z sensors without signal degradation. |
| Trimmed Input Offset Voltage | 50 μV max ensures baseline error remains below 0.1% of full-scale in 50 mV span bridge measurements. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Stage | Swings to within 40 mV of V– and 220 mV of V+ at 1 mA load-maximizes usable output range in 3.3 V and 5 V systems. |
| Unity-Gain Stable with 1000 pF | Eliminates need for external series resistor or feedback capacitor when driving ADC input filters or long cables. |
| Matched Dual Amplifier Pair | Offset voltage match ≤70 μV and bias current match ≤300 pA support precise differential gain and common-mode rejection in INAs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2188AIDR | Lower offset drift (0.005 μV/°C), higher supply current (1 mA), no guaranteed 1000 pF unity-gain stability | Better for ultra-stable DC references; less suitable for capacitive-load ADC drivers | Select OPA2188AIDR only if drift dominates design; verify stability with target CL before layout. |
| ADA4522-2ARZ | Zero-drift architecture, 2.5 μV max offset, higher quiescent current (1.2 mA), lower GBW (3 MHz) | Superior long-term stability for metrology; insufficient slew rate for fast settling in data acquisition | Choose ADA4522-2ARZ for calibration-grade instruments; avoid where 30 μs 0.01% settling is required. |
Compared with OPA2188AIDR and ADA4522-2ARZ, LT1881AIS8#TRPBF delivers optimal balance of picoamp input bias, guaranteed 1000 pF drive, and industrial temperature range-making it uniquely suited for battery-powered sensor interfaces where leakage and layout constraints dominate.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF can drive while remaining stable in unity-gain configuration?
The LT1881AIS8#TRPBF is specified to remain stable with up to 1000 pF capacitive load in unity-gain follower configuration, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Typical Performance Characteristic G10–G11. This eliminates the need for external isolation resistors in ADC input buffering or RC filter driving applications, provided PCB layout follows recommended grounding and decoupling practices.
Does the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF support true rail-to-rail input operation?
No, the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF does not support rail-to-rail input operation. Its input common-mode voltage range is specified as V– + 1.0 V to V+ – 1.0 V, meaning inputs must stay at least 1 V away from each supply rail. However, its output stage delivers true rail-to-rail swing-within 40 mV of V– and 220 mV of V+-making it ideal for output buffering in single-supply systems.
How does the input bias current matching between amplifiers A and B affect differential applications?
The LT1881AIS8#TRPBF specifies ΔIB+ ≤300 pA (noninverting bias current match) and ΔVOS ≤70 μV between its two amplifiers. In differential configurations-such as instrumentation amplifier front-ends-this tight matching minimizes gain error and common-mode rejection degradation. For example, in a 350 Ω bridge with 10 kΩ feedback, mismatch-induced CMRR loss is held below 1 dB across –40°C to +85°C.
What is the supply current consumption of the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF at 5 V single supply?
At 5 V single supply (VS = 5 V, 0 V), the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF draws 0.65 mA per amplifier typical and 0.9 mA maximum, as stated in the Electrical Characteristics table under IS (Supply Current Per Amplifier). Total device current is therefore 1.3 mA typical and 1.8 mA maximum-enabling multi-channel operation in power-constrained battery-powered systems.
Is the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF pin-compatible with other members of the LT1881 family?
Yes, the LT1881AIS8#TRPBF shares the standard S8 (8-lead SO) pinout with all LT1881 variants in SO packaging-including LT1881CS8#TRPBF, LT1881IS8#TRPBF, and LT1881ACS8#TRPBF-as confirmed in the Order Information table and Pin Configuration diagram. This allows direct substitution within the same grade (I-grade) and package, provided offset, drift, and bias current specifications meet system requirements.
