Product details
Overview
LT6001IMS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual precision rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier optimized for micropower, low-voltage operation. It delivers 13–16 µA supply current per amplifier, 600 µV max input offset voltage, and full rail-to-rail swing on supplies as low as 1.8 V. It is widely used in battery-powered gas sensing front-ends and portable instrumentation where ultra-low quiescent current and precision DC performance are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LT6001IMS8#PBF datasheet, LT6001IMS8#PBF pinout, LT6001IMS8#PBF application, or LT6001IMS8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 1.8 V operation, shutdown capability (in DD variant), input offset drift ≤5 µV/°C, and MS8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LT6001IMS8#PBF employs a complementary input stage-PNP pair active near V– and NPN pair active near V+-enabling true rail-to-rail common-mode input range (0 V to VS) and maintaining <600 µV offset across the full range. Its folded-cascode second stage and complementary drive output stage support rail-to-rail output swing within 30 mV of each rail under no-load conditions.
Unlike the 10-lead LT6001DD with shutdown, the 8-lead MS8 variant (LT6001IMS8#PBF) lacks SHDN functionality. It is fully specified over –40°C to 85°C at both 1.8 V and 5 V supplies, with gain bandwidth of 32–50 kHz and slew rate of 7–15 V/ms depending on temperature and supply.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 16 V - enables direct operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V), NiMH (1.2 V × 2), or coin-cell (1.5 V) with headroom. |
| Quiescent Current | 13–16 µA per amplifier - supports >1-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes drawing <20 µA total. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ≤600 µV (max, –40°C to 85°C) - ensures sub-mV DC error in precision transducer signal conditioning without trimming. |
| Input/Output Swing | Rail-to-rail - allows full utilization of ADC reference range and eliminates level-shifting circuitry in 1.8 V systems. |
| Gain Bandwidth | 32–50 kHz - sufficient for DC–10 kHz sensor signal amplification while maintaining stability with 100 pF capacitive loads. |
| Input Bias Current | –6 nA to +12 nA - low enough to avoid significant error with high-impedance sources (e.g., electrochemical sensors). |
| CMRR / PSRR | ≥82 dB CMRR, ≥86 dB PSRR - rejects supply noise and common-mode interference in noisy industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package
LT6001IMS8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP (MS8) package, 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm footprint, 1.1 mm height, with gull-wing leads and exposed thermal pad connected to V–.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT A) | Amplifier A output | Delivers rail-to-rail output signal; capable of sourcing/sinking up to 4 mA at 1.8 V supply. |
| 2 (IN– A) | Inverting input A | Differential node for A amplifier; includes 30 kΩ series protection resistors against overvoltage. |
| 3 (IN+ A) | Non-inverting input A | Differential node for A amplifier; same protection and bias current behavior as IN– A. |
| 4 (V–) | Negative supply rail | Reference for both amplifiers; exposed pad internally tied to this pin for thermal and electrical grounding. |
| 5 (V+) | Positive supply rail | Accepts 1.8–16 V; requires local 0.01 µF bypass capacitor within 25 mm of pin. |
| 6 (OUT B) | Amplifier B output | Independent rail-to-rail output; electrically isolated from OUT A except through shared supply rails. |
| 7 (IN– B) | Inverting input B | Second amplifier's inverting input; identical electrical characteristics and protection as IN– A. |
| 8 (IN+ B) | Non-inverting input B | Second amplifier's non-inverting input; matches IN+ A in offset, bias, and CM range. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 1.8 V minimum supply | Enables direct interface with energy-harvesting circuits and single-cell batteries without LDO pre-regulation. |
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Eliminates need for external level shifters or dual-supply generation in low-voltage microcontroller-based systems. |
| 600 µV max VOS over temperature | Reduces calibration burden in factory-trimmed portable medical or environmental sensors. |
| 13 µA quiescent current | Permits continuous monitoring in IoT edge nodes powered by CR2032 cells for >2 years (typical). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision micropower op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX44260ASA+ | Lower VOS (150 µV max), higher supply current (35 µA), no rail-to-rail output (VOH = VCC – 0.9 V at 1.8 V) | Preferred where ultra-low offset dominates over power; unsuitable for true rail-to-rail output requirements. | Select MAX44260ASA+ only if offset-critical DC accuracy outweighs battery life and output swing constraints. |
| OPA333AIDBVR | Zero-drift architecture, 2 µV max VOS, 17 µA supply current, rail-to-rail I/O, but limited 1.8 V min supply only at TA = 25°C (not guaranteed over –40°C to 85°C) | Best for lab-grade instruments with controlled ambient; not recommended for unregulated outdoor deployments. | Choose OPA333AIDBVR when zero-drift stability is mandatory and temperature range can be restricted to 0°C–70°C. |
Compared with MAX44260ASA+ and OPA333AIDBVR, LT6001IMS8#PBF uniquely guarantees rail-to-rail output swing, 600 µV VOS, and full –40°C to 85°C operation at 1.8 V - making it the most balanced choice for ruggedized, long-life, low-voltage sensor systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input common-mode voltage range for LT6001IMS8#PBF?
The LT6001IMS8#PBF supports a true rail-to-rail input common-mode range from V– to V+, i.e., 0 V to VS at any supply between 1.8 V and 16 V. This is achieved via complementary PNP/NPN input stages that auto-switch based on VCM; datasheet Figure 1 and page 11 confirm full functionality across the entire range with <600 µV offset variation.
Does LT6001IMS8#PBF include a shutdown pin?
No, LT6001IMS8#PBF does not include a shutdown pin. Shutdown functionality is exclusive to the 10-lead LT6001DD variant in DFN package. The MS8 package (LT6001IMS8#PBF) has only 8 pins: two outputs, four inputs (two per amplifier), and two supply rails - no SHDN terminal is present or supported.
What is the typical output swing capability of LT6001IMS8#PBF at 1.8 V supply?
At 1.8 V supply and room temperature, LT6001IMS8#PBF delivers output swing within 30 mV of each rail under no-load conditions, and within 120–200 mV at 100 µA sink/source load. This is confirmed in Electrical Characteristics Table (page 4), Note 6, and Typical Performance curves G08/G09 - enabling full-scale use of 1.8 V ADC references.
Can LT6001IMS8#PBF operate reliably from a single 1.5 V alkaline cell?
No, LT6001IMS8#PBF requires minimum 1.8 V total supply voltage per Absolute Maximum Ratings (page 2). While it may power on at 1.6 V transiently, guaranteed operation - including rail-to-rail swing, offset spec, and bandwidth - begins at 1.8 V. For 1.5 V systems, a boost converter or alternative op amp (e.g., MCP6002) is required.
What is the input bias current polarity behavior of LT6001IMS8#PBF across its input voltage range?
LT6001IMS8#PBF exhibits polarity-reversing input bias current: current flows *out* of inputs when VCM is near V– (PNP stage active), and *into* inputs when VCM approaches V+ (NPN stage active). This is documented in Applications Information (page 11–12) and Figure 1 schematic - requiring matched source impedances on IN+ and IN– to minimize offset error.
