Product details
Overview
LT6236CS6#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized as a low-noise, high-speed SAR ADC driver. It delivers 1.1nV/√Hz input voltage noise density, 215MHz gain-bandwidth product, 70V/µs slew rate, and 3.5mA supply current per amplifier, operating from 3V to 12.6V supplies. Its shutdown feature reduces quiescent current to ≤10µA, making it ideal for precision data acquisition in portable or power-constrained instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LT6236CS6#TRPBF datasheet, LT6236CS6#TRPBF pinout, LT6236CS6#TRPBF application, or LT6236CS6#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 570ns settling time to 18-bit accuracy (2VP-P), ±50mV rail-to-rail output swing at 20mA load, and guaranteed performance over 0°C to 70°C - critical for high-resolution ADC interfacing, active filter design, and low-power signal conditioning.
Technical Context
The LT6236CS6#TRPBF employs a proprietary bipolar complementary input stage enabling ultra-low voltage noise without sacrificing bandwidth or power efficiency. Its internal architecture supports stable operation with capacitive loads up to 100pF and maintains phase margin >45° across supply voltages from 3V to 12.6V.
It features an ENABLE pin with TTL-compatible thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.3V, VIH ≥ V+ – 0.35V), enabling fast turn-on (800ns) and controlled turn-off (41µs), and integrates robust ESD protection on all pins per JEDEC JS-001 Class 2 (±2kV HBM).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Noise Density | 1.1nV/√Hz at 10kHz - enables sub-18-bit SNR preservation when driving high-resolution SAR ADCs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADA4898-1ARMZ-R7 | Lower 0.9nV/√Hz noise but higher 10.5mA supply current; no shutdown function; MSOP-8 package | Better SNR in fixed-power lab equipment; unsuitable for battery duty-cycling | Select when ultimate noise performance outweighs power and board area constraints |
| OPA837IDBVR | Higher 105MHz GBW, 48V/µs slew rate, 1.8nV/√Hz noise; SOT-23-6 package; no shutdown | Lower bandwidth and higher noise limit resolution in >16-bit systems; better for cost-sensitive consumer-grade designs | Select when 105MHz bandwidth suffices and lower BOM cost is prioritized over 18-bit fidelity |

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LT6236CS6#TRPBF?
The absolute maximum total supply voltage (V+ to V–) for LT6236CS6#TRPBF is 12.6V. Operation beyond this rating risks permanent damage. The device is fully specified from 3V to 12.6V supply range, with guaranteed rail-to-rail output swing and 215MHz gain-bandwidth product across this span. Derating is recommended for continuous operation near the absolute maximum.
Does LT6236CS6#TRPBF support true single-supply operation down to 3V?
Yes, LT6236CS6#TRPBF supports true single-supply operation from 3V to 12.6V. Its input common-mode range extends to within 1.5V of V– (0V) and 2.65V of V+ at 3.3V supply, and its rail-to-rail output swings within 50mV of both rails at 20mA load - enabling full dynamic range utilization in 3.3V and 5V systems without level-shifting circuitry.
How does the ENABLE pin function on LT6236CS6#TRPBF?
The ENABLE pin on LT6236CS6#TRPBF is an active-low shutdown control. When pulled to V+ – 0.35V or higher, the amplifier enters shutdown mode with supply current reduced to ≤10µA. When pulled to ≤0.3V, normal operation resumes with 800ns turn-on time. The pin draws ≤100µA sink current and requires no external pull-up; direct connection to MCU GPIO suffices.
What is the guaranteed settling time for LT6236CS6#TRPBF to 18-bit accuracy?
LT6236CS6#TRPBF guarantees 570ns settling time to 4ppm (18-bit) accuracy for a 2VP-P output step under standard test conditions (VS = 5V, RL = 1kΩ, AV = 1). This specification is validated across the 0°C to 70°C temperature range and is critical for interfacing with 2.5Msps+ SAR ADCs such as the LTC2389-18 without cycle loss.
Is LT6236CS6#TRPBF pin-compatible with other members of the LT6236/LT6237/LT6238 family?
No, LT6236CS6#TRPBF is not pin-compatible with LT6237 or LT6238 variants. It uses a 6-lead TSOT-23 package with unique pinout (V+, ENABLE, –IN, OUT, V–, +IN). LT6237 (dual) uses 8-lead DFN or MSOP, and LT6238 (quad) uses 16-lead SSOP - each with distinct pin assignments and no shared footprint. Board redesign is required for substitution between family members.
