Product details
Overview
LT6235CGN#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a quad, rail-to-rail output, low-noise, unity-gain stable operational amplifier in a 16-pin narrow SSOP package. It delivers 1.9nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 60MHz gain-bandwidth product per amplifier, 1.2mA supply current per channel, and operates from 3V to 12.6V supplies - enabling high-fidelity signal conditioning in ultrasound front-ends and precision A/D driver stages.
For engineers reviewing the LT6235CGN#PBF datasheet, LT6235CGN#PBF pinout, LT6235CGN#PBF application, or LT6235CGN#PBF equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, real-world settling time (170ns @ 0.1%), rail-to-rail output swing (within 50mV of rails), CMRR (115dB typ), and validated alternatives for multi-channel low-noise amplifier design.
Technical Context
The LT6235CGN#PBF integrates four independent amplifiers optimized for low-voltage, low-noise signal chains. Each channel features matched input offset voltage (≤450µV max), balanced noise performance (1.9nV/√Hz at 10kHz), and full-power bandwidth up to 1.27MHz (±5V supply). Its enable pin supports power gating with <10µA shutdown current per channel.
Designed for unity-gain stability and rail-to-rail output swing, the device maintains 115dB CMRR and 115dB PSRR across its –40°C to 85°C operating range. The 16-pin GN package supports compact layout while preserving channel isolation - critical for multi-channel instrumentation and active filter topologies requiring tight matching.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad low-noise op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP484ESZ-REEL | Higher supply current (2.5mA/amp), wider supply range (±4.5V to ±18V), higher noise (4.3nV/√Hz), no enable pin | Better suited for high-voltage industrial signal chains where noise is less critical than output drive strength | Select when needing ±15V operation or >±10V output swing - avoid if battery life or low-noise priority exists |
| ADA4897-4ARUZ | Lower noise (1.0nV/√Hz), higher GBW (220MHz), higher supply current (3.5mA/amp), no enable, SOIC-16 package | Optimized for high-speed, wideband applications like RF IF amplification or fast pulse shaping | Choose for bandwidth-critical designs >50MHz; avoid for low-power or enable-controlled systems |

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the LT6235CGN#PBF?
The LT6235CGN#PBF has an absolute maximum total supply voltage (V+ to V–) of 12.6V. Operation beyond this rating risks permanent damage. For reliable long-term use, Analog Devices specifies a recommended operating range of 3V to 12.6V - confirmed across all electrical characteristics tables in the official datasheet for LT6235CGN#PBF.
Does the LT6235CGN#PBF include an enable pin for power control?
No, the LT6235CGN#PBF does not feature individual enable pins. Unlike the LT6233/LT6233-10 (single) or LT6234 (dual), the quad LT6235CGN#PBF lacks ENABLE functionality. Power control must be implemented externally via supply rail switching or series FETs - a key distinction confirmed in the Pin Configuration diagram and Electrical Characteristics tables for LT6235CGN#PBF.
What is the guaranteed input offset voltage specification for LT6235CGN#PBF over temperature?
The LT6235CGN#PBF is specified with a maximum input offset voltage of 450µV over the 0°C to 70°C range (C-grade), and 550µV over –40°C to 85°C (I-grade). This value is explicitly listed in the "Electrical Characteristics" table under "LT6234CS8, LT6235CGN" conditions - directly applicable to the LT6235CGN#PBF part number.
Can the LT6235CGN#PBF drive a 100Ω load while maintaining rail-to-rail output swing?
Yes, the LT6235CGN#PBF can drive 100Ω loads with rail-to-rail capability: output swing is specified to within 220mV of V+ and 195mV of V– at ISOURCE/ISINK = 10mA (3.3V supply), and within 435mV of V+ and 360mV of V– at 15mA (5V supply). Full rail-to-rail performance requires load currents ≤5mA - verified in the "Output Voltage Swing" section of the LT6235CGN#PBF datasheet.
Is the LT6235CGN#PBF pin-compatible with other members of the LT623x family?
No, the LT6235CGN#PBF is not pin-compatible with LT6233 or LT6234 variants. It uses a unique 16-pin SSOP (GN) footprint with dedicated pins for four independent amplifiers (OUT A/B/C/D, ±IN A/B/C/D, V+, V–), whereas LT6233 is 6-pin SOT-23 and LT6234 is 8-pin SO/DFN. Pin mapping, count, and spacing differ fundamentally - confirmed by comparing S6, S8, DD, and GN package drawings in the LT6235CGN#PBF datasheet.
