Product details
Overview
LT6010ACS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a single, rail-to-rail output precision operational amplifier with shutdown control, designed for low-noise, high-accuracy signal conditioning in battery-powered and sensor interface applications. It delivers 35µV max input offset voltage, 110pA max input bias current, 135µA supply current at 5V, 14nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and operates from 2.7V to ±18V supplies across –40°C to 85°C.
For engineers reviewing the LT6010ACS8#PBF datasheet, LT6010ACS8#PBF pinout, LT6010ACS8#PBF application, or LT6010ACS8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed 0.8µV/°C VOS drift over temperature, 120dB min voltage gain at ±15V, shutdown current of 12µA, rail-to-rail output swing within 40mV of rails, and SO-8 package compatibility with precision thermocouple and RTD amplifier designs.
Technical Context
The LT6010ACS8#PBF uses a proprietary input stage with on-chip trimming to achieve sub-35µV offset and 0.8µV/°C drift, supported by 120dB minimum open-loop gain and 107dB min CMRR over full temperature range. Its internal 500Ω series input resistors and back-to-back diodes provide ±10V differential input protection.
Shutdown is implemented via a dedicated SHDN pin requiring ≤0.2V above V– for active mode and ≥2.0V above V– to reduce supply current to 12µA; the output remains connected to inputs during shutdown, precluding multiplexing use. The amplifier maintains rail-to-rail output swing (to within 40mV of either rail) while restricting input common-mode range to V– + 0.7V to V+ – 1.2V.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA333AIDR | Zero-drift architecture; 0.1µV/°C max drift vs. LT6010ACS8#PBF's 0.8µV/°C; higher 17µA supply current | Superior long-term stability for metrology; less suitable for battery-critical designs due to higher quiescent current | Select OPA333AIDR when drift-critical calibration intervals exceed 1 year; retain LT6010ACS8#PBF for optimal power/noise trade-off |
| ADA4522-1ARZ | Zero-drift; 0.005µV/°C max drift; 1.25mA supply current; no shutdown pin | Ultra-high DC precision for laboratory instruments; unsuitable for portable devices requiring power gating | Choose ADA4522-1ARZ for benchtop test equipment demanding sub-ppm linearity; LT6010ACS8#PBF remains preferred for field-deployable sensors |

FAQ
What is the maximum input common-mode voltage range for LT6010ACS8#PBF?
The LT6010ACS8#PBF input common-mode voltage range is specified as V– + 0.7V to V+ – 1.2V under guaranteed conditions. At VS = 5V (0V), this translates to 0.7V to 3.8V; at ±15V supplies, it is –14.3V to +13.8V. Operation outside this range degrades gain but does not cause phase reversal. The LT6010ACS8#PBF datasheet confirms this range is guaranteed by CMRR performance over –40°C to 85°C.
Does LT6010ACS8#PBF support true rail-to-rail input operation?
No, the LT6010ACS8#PBF does not support rail-to-rail input operation. Its input stage is limited to V– + 0.7V to V+ – 1.2V, as confirmed in the "Input Voltage Range" specifications. However, its rail-to-rail output swing (within 40mV of both rails) makes it suitable for single-supply applications where the output must utilize the full supply range-provided input signals remain within the specified common-mode window. The LT6010ACS8#PBF application notes explicitly caution against exceeding this input range.
How does the shutdown function operate on LT6010ACS8#PBF?
The LT6010ACS8#PBF enters shutdown when the SHDN pin voltage is ≥2.0V above V–, reducing supply current to 12µA max. It resumes normal operation when SHDN ≤ V– + 0.2V. An internal 85kΩ pull-down resistor biases SHDN toward V–. External series resistance is recommended when driving SHDN from sources >2V to limit pin current. Critically, the output remains connected to inputs during shutdown, so the LT6010ACS8#PBF cannot be used for analog multiplexing.
What is the typical total input noise of LT6010ACS8#PBF at 1kHz with a 100kΩ source?
At 1kHz with a 100kΩ source, the LT6010ACS8#PBF total input noise is dominated by thermal noise of the source (4√(kTR) ≈ 1.3nV/√Hz) plus its own 14nV/√Hz voltage noise, yielding ~14.1nV/√Hz. This is confirmed in the "Total Input Noise vs Source Resistance" plot (Figure G07), where total noise asymptotically approaches the amplifier's voltage noise floor above 20kΩ. The LT6010ACS8#PBF datasheet states that for sources between 20kΩ and 1MΩ, system noise is source-limited.
Can LT6010ACS8#PBF drive a 1000pF load in unity-gain configuration?
No, the LT6010ACS8#PBF is characterized to drive up to 500pF in unity-gain configuration without instability, as stated in the "Capacitive Loads" section. Driving 1000pF directly would likely cause peaking or oscillation. To drive larger capacitive loads, increase closed-loop gain (e.g., AV = –10 improves phase margin) or add a small series resistor (e.g., 10–50Ω) between the LT6010ACS8#PBF output and the load capacitance, as recommended in the application notes.
