Product details
Overview
LT1884AIN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual precision rail-to-rail output operational amplifier with picoamp-level input bias current (400pA max), 50µV max input offset voltage, and 0.8µV/°C max offset drift - designed for thermocouple amplification, bridge transducer conditioning, and battery-powered instrumentation where DC accuracy and low-power operation are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LT1884AIN8#PBF datasheet, LT1884AIN8#PBF pinout, LT1884AIN8#PBF application, or LT1884AIN8#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package-confirmed pin functions, real-world use cases in precision analog signal chains, and two validated alternative parts with documented technical and application differences.
Technical Context
The LT1884AIN8#PBF implements a bipolar input stage with on-chip input bias current cancellation, enabling ultralow 400pA max input bias current while maintaining high open-loop gain (1 million min) and CMRR (106 dB min over full temperature range). Its rail-to-rail output swing (within 40mV of V– and 220mV of V+) supports single-supply operation down to 2.7V total supply.
It features matched dual-amplifier architecture with guaranteed offset voltage match ≤70µV (0°C to 70°C) and 0.4–1.2µV/°C match drift, making it suitable for differential sensing and instrumentation amplifier front-ends requiring channel-to-channel consistency without external trimming.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 50µV max at 25°C; ensures ≤110µV worst-case error across –40°C to 85°C operating range |
| Input Bias Current | 400pA max at 25°C; enables accurate amplification of high-impedance sources (e.g., pH electrodes, photodiodes) |
| Offset Voltage Drift | 0.8µV/°C max; limits thermal-induced error to <6.4µV over 80°C ambient shift |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Swings to within 40mV of V– and 220mV of V+ at 1mA load; supports 3.3V single-supply systems with >2.9V dynamic range |
| Supply Current per Amplifier | 1.4mA max at 5V supply; enables dual-channel precision amplification under 3mW total power |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 2MHz typical; provides stable unity-gain operation with ≥60° phase margin into 300pF capacitive loads |
| Common-Mode Rejection | 106dB min over –40°C to 85°C; rejects >200k:1 common-mode voltage variation in bridge circuits |
Pinout & Package
LT1884AIN8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead PDIP (N8) package with industry-standard dual op amp pinout and 0.300-inch body width. Thermal resistance θJA = 130°C/W enables operation up to +85°C ambient without forced airflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT A) | Amplifier A output | Drives feedback network or downstream stage; rail-to-rail swing supports low-headroom signal routing |
| 2 (–IN A) | Inverting input of Amp A | High-impedance node; requires guard ring layout to preserve 400pA bias current spec |
| 3 (+IN A) | Noninverting input of Amp A | Accepts sensor signals directly; input common-mode range extends to V– +1.2V and V+ –1.2V |
| 4 (V–) | Negative supply rail | Reference for dual-supply operation or ground in single-supply configs; sinks output current |
| 5 (+IN B) | Noninverting input of Amp B | Independent high-Z input; matches Amp A's offset and bias specs for differential pair use |
| 6 (–IN B) | Inverting input of Amp B | Paired with Pin 5 for matched channel performance; offset match ≤70µV enables <0.007% gain error in IAs |
| 7 (OUT B) | Amplifier B output | Provides second independent precision channel; identical AC/DC specs to Pin 1 |
| 8 (V+) | Positive supply rail | Accepts 2.7V–36V total supply; PSRR ≥108dB minimizes supply noise coupling into output |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision dual op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2050CS8#PBF | Zero-drift architecture; 3µV max VOS, but 1.2mA supply current and limited 5.5V max supply | Better DC accuracy for ultra-low-drift applications; unsuitable for >5.5V supplies or high-speed settling | Select LTC2050CS8#PBF when VOS stability over time/temperature outweighs supply voltage flexibility and slew rate |
| LT1881CS8#PBF | Lower 100pA max input bias current, but 80µV max VOS and no guaranteed offset match spec | Superior for ultra-high-impedance photodiode amps; lacks matched-pair performance for instrumentation front-ends | Select LT1881CS8#PBF when input bias dominates error budget and channel matching is not required |
Compared with LT1884AIN8#PBF, LTC2050CS8#PBF offers superior long-term VOS stability but sacrifices supply voltage range and speed, while LT1881CS8#PBF improves input bias by 4× but trades off offset accuracy and matching - making LT1884AIN8#PBF the balanced choice for general-purpose precision dual amplification.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for LT1884AIN8#PBF?
The LT1884AIN8#PBF supports a total supply voltage range of 2.7V to 36V, with full electrical specifications guaranteed from 5V to ±15V. Absolute maximum supply voltage is 40V (V+ to V–), beyond which device reliability is not assured. Operation at 36V requires thermal derating per the 130°C/W θJA rating in the N8 package.
Does LT1884AIN8#PBF support true rail-to-rail input operation?
No, the LT1884AIN8#PBF does not feature rail-to-rail input. Its input common-mode voltage range is specified as V– + 1.2V to V+ – 1.2V over temperature, meaning it cannot accept signals within 1.2V of either supply rail. However, its output swings rail-to-rail - within 40mV of V– and 220mV of V+ at 1mA load.
Can LT1884AIN8#PBF drive capacitive loads without oscillation?
Yes, the LT1884AIN8#PBF is stable driving up to 300pF capacitive loads in unity-gain configuration. Stability improves with higher closed-loop gain; for loads exceeding 300pF, a small series resistor (e.g., 10–50Ω) between amplifier output and capacitance restores phase margin without degrading DC accuracy.
What is the guaranteed offset voltage match between the two amplifiers in LT1884AIN8#PBF?
The LT1884AIN8#PBF guarantees offset voltage match ≤70µV over 0°C to 70°C and ≤125µV over –40°C to 85°C. This matching specification applies specifically to the difference between Amplifier A and Amplifier B, enabling high-accuracy differential amplification without external trimming components.
Is LT1884AIN8#PBF RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, LT1884AIN8#PBF is RoHS compliant and features lead-free (Pb-free) termination with NiPdAu plating. The #PBF suffix explicitly denotes lead-free packaging per JEDEC J-STD-609, and the device meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.
