Product details
Overview
LT6003CDC#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a single, rail-to-rail input/output precision operational amplifier optimized for micropower battery-powered systems. It operates from 1.6V to 16V supply, draws ≤1.6µA quiescent current at 5V, features 500µV max input offset voltage, 2µV/°C drift, and drives 500pF capacitive loads - enabling high-accuracy signal conditioning in portable gas monitors and low-voltage sensor front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LT6003CDC#TRPBF datasheet, LT6003CDC#TRPBF pinout, LT6003CDC#TRPBF application, or LT6003CDC#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package-validated pin functions, real-world use cases in ultra-low-power sensing, and two confirmed alternative op amps with documented performance trade-offs.
Technical Context
The LT6003CDC#TRPBF employs a dual-input-stage architecture: a PNP pair active from V– to ~0.9V below V+, and an NPN pair engaging near V+ to maintain rail-to-rail common-mode operation. Input bias current cancellation remains effective ≥300mV from either rail, dropping to <90pA over –40°C to 85°C.
Its folded-cascode second stage and complementary drive output stage enable rail-to-rail swing (≤100mV from V+, ≤50mV from V– at no load) while sustaining 100,000 min open-loop gain into 20kΩ and stable operation with 500pF capacitive loads - critical for driving ADC input filters without oscillation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.6V to 16V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0V), coin cell (1.5V–3.0V), and dual-supply ±8V systems without level-shifting. |
| Quiescent Current | 1.6µA max at 5V, –40°C to 85°C - enables >1-year battery life in 10µA-sleep IoT nodes with periodic analog sensing. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 500µV max over temperature - ensures ≤0.5mV error in 10-bit 3.3V ADC interfaces without trimming. |
| Offset Drift | 2µV/°C max - contributes only 24µV error across –40°C to 85°C ambient, critical for uncalibrated industrial sensors. |
| Capacitive Load Drive | 500pF stable - allows direct connection to anti-aliasing filters or long PCB traces without external compensation. |
| CMRR / PSRR | 100dB CMRR, 95dB PSRR - rejects power rail noise and common-mode interference in noisy embedded environments. |
| Output Swing | Rail-to-rail: within 100mV of V+, 50mV of V– at no load - maximizes dynamic range in 1.8V/3.3V microcontroller ADCs. |
Pinout & Package
LT6003CDC#TRPBF is housed in a 4-lead (2mm × 2mm) plastic DFN package with exposed pad connected to V–. The package is RoHS-compliant, moisture-sensitive level 1, and rated for operation from –40°C to 85°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OUT | Amplifier output | Delivers rail-to-rail voltage with ≤100mV headroom to V+ and ≤50mV to V–; drives 500pF directly. |
| 2 - V– | Negative supply / ground reference | Connects to system ground or negative rail; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| 3 - +IN | Non-inverting input | High-impedance node (10GΩ differential); bias current <90pA enables high-Z sensor interfacing (e.g., pH electrodes). |
| 4 - –IN | Inverting input | Matches +IN characteristics; equal source impedances minimize IB-induced offset errors. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow supply current | 1.6µA max at 5V over –40°C to 85°C - extends battery life in portable medical and environmental monitors. |
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Operates with inputs from V– to V+ and outputs within 100mV of rails - preserves full ADC resolution in low-voltage systems. |
| Phase reversal protection | Prevents output polarity inversion when inputs exceed V– by up to 9V - safeguards downstream logic in fault conditions. |
| Stable with 500pF load | No external compensation required for capacitive loads up to 500pF - simplifies filter design and reduces BOM count. |
| Guaranteed 1.6V operation | Specified down to 1.6V supply - enables direct use with aging alkaline or lithium primary cells without regulators. |

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+T | 0.9µA IQ, 200µV VOS max, 1.8V min supply - lower offset but higher cost and limited 2.7V–5.5V supply range. | Preferred for <200µV offset-critical medical sensors; not suitable for 1.6V–1.8V coin-cell systems. | Select MAX44260ASA+T when offset <200µV is mandatory and supply ≥2.7V; otherwise LT6003CDC#TRPBF offers broader voltage support. |
| OPA316IDBVR | 10µA IQ, 250µV VOS max, 1.8V min supply - 10× higher current, better bandwidth (10MHz), but incompatible with sub-µA sleep modes. | Suitable for higher-speed sensor interfaces where power budget allows >10µA continuous draw. | Choose OPA316IDBVR for bandwidth-critical applications (>100kHz) with relaxed power constraints; avoid for battery-life-limited designs. |
Compared with MAX44260ASA+T and OPA316IDBVR, the LT6003CDC#TRPBF uniquely balances 1.6V operation, ≤1.6µA supply current, and 500µV offset - making it the only option viable for decade-long deployments on primary cells with full rail-to-rail functionality.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage guaranteed for LT6003CDC#TRPBF operation?
The LT6003CDC#TRPBF is fully specified and guaranteed to operate down to 1.6V supply voltage across its commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C), with functional operation confirmed to 1.7V over –40°C to 85°C per datasheet Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables.
Does LT6003CDC#TRPBF support true rail-to-rail input and output?
Yes, the LT6003CDC#TRPBF supports rail-to-rail input (V– to V+) and output (within 100mV of V+, 50mV of V– at no load). Its dual-input-stage architecture - PNP pair active near V– and NPN pair near V+ - ensures continuous operation across the full supply range without phase reversal.
What is the maximum capacitive load LT6003CDC#TRPBF can drive stably?
The LT6003CDC#TRPBF is characterized and guaranteed stable with capacitive loads up to 500pF without external compensation. This is validated across supply voltages (1.8V, 5V, ±8V) and temperatures (–40°C to 85°C), as shown in the Capacitive Load Handling plot (Figure 22) of the datasheet.
How does the input offset voltage drift behave over temperature for LT6003CDC#TRPBF?
The LT6003CDC#TRPBF has a maximum input offset voltage drift of 2µV/°C over the full –40°C to 85°C operating range. This low drift ensures predictable, low-error performance in uncalibrated temperature-varying environments such as outdoor environmental sensors.
Is the exposed pad on the LT6003CDC#TRPBF DFN package electrically connected?
Yes, the exposed pad on the LT6003CDC#TRPBF's 4-lead DFN package is internally connected to the V– terminal and must be soldered to the PCB ground plane. This connection is required for both thermal dissipation (θJA = 102°C/W) and electrical stability, as stated in the Pin Configuration diagram (Page 2).
