Product details
Overview
LTC1051CSW#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual precision zero-drift operational amplifier with integrated sample-and-hold capacitors, designed for ultra-low-offset DC signal conditioning. It delivers 0.5µV max input offset voltage, 0.01µV/°C drift, 1.5µVP-P (DC–10Hz) noise, 140dB voltage gain, and 2.5MHz gain-bandwidth product while consuming only 1mA per amplifier - enabling high-accuracy thermocouple amplification and strain gauge readout in industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1051CSW#PBF datasheet, LTC1051CSW#PBF pinout, LTC1051CSW#PBF application, or LTC1051CSW#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its chopper-stabilized architecture with on-chip capacitors, rail-to-rail output swing capability, single-supply operation down to 4.75V, and compatibility with standard dual op-amp footprints in SW package.
Technical Context
The LTC1051CSW#PBF employs a fully integrated chopper-stabilized topology with internal sampling at 3.3kHz, eliminating external hold capacitors required by legacy chopper amplifiers. Its dual-amplifier structure shares no internal resources between channels, ensuring independent DC accuracy and low crosstalk.
It features auto-zeroing circuitry that corrects input offset and drift in real time, achieving combined DC and AC performance superior to competing zero-drift op amps. Input common-mode range includes ground, and output swings to ground under load - critical for single-supply instrumentation front ends.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | ±0.5µV max - enables sub-µV-level DC measurement without manual trimming |
| Offset Drift | ±0.01µV/°C - ensures stable calibration over industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) |
| Input Noise (DC–10Hz) | 1.5µVP-P typical - supports high-resolution data acquisition in slow-signal applications |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 2.5MHz - provides adequate bandwidth for anti-aliasing filters and sensor signal conditioning up to ~200kHz |
| Slew Rate | 4V/µs - allows fast settling for step inputs in precision control loops |
| Supply Current per Amp | 1mA typical - enables dual-channel precision amplification within tight power budgets |
| Common-Mode Rejection | 114dB min - rejects interference from shared sensor excitation or noisy PCB grounds |
Pinout & Package
The LTC1051CSW#PBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic SO (SW) package with wide-body 0.300-inch footprint (LTC DWG #05-08-1620), RoHS-compliant and lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 5 | Non-inverting Input A (+IN A) | Differential input node for first amplifier channel; accepts signals down to ground |
| 6 | Negative Supply (V–) | Reference for dual-supply operation; supports single-supply use when tied to ground |
| 7 | Output A (OUT A) | Amplified output of Channel A; swings to within 150mV of V– rail |
| 9 | Positive Supply (V+) | Power rail; operates from 4.75V to 16V total supply (V+ to V–) |
| 10 | Output B (OUT B) | Amplified output of Channel B; independently buffered and rail-swing capable |
| 11 | Inverting Input B (–IN B) | Differential input node for second amplifier channel; matched performance to Channel A |
| 12 | Non-inverting Input B (+IN B) | Differential input node for second amplifier channel; identical CMRR and noise specs as +IN A |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8628ARZ | Single-channel, same 0.5µV offset spec but higher 2.2µVP-P (DC–10Hz) noise; requires external capacitors for auto-zero | Not pin-compatible; needs PCB redesign for dual-channel use | Select when single-channel operation suffices and lower cost is prioritized over noise floor |
| LTC2050CS8#PBF | Lower 0.25µV offset and 0.003µV/°C drift, but 2.8µVP-P noise and 1.5MHz GBW; same SW-8 package (not SW-16) | Single-channel only; incompatible pinout prevents drop-in replacement | Choose for highest DC accuracy where dual-channel integration is not required |
Compared with AD8628ARZ and LTC2050CS8#PBF, the LTC1051CSW#PBF uniquely delivers dual-channel zero-drift performance in a single 16-pin SW package with integrated hold capacitors - reducing bill-of-materials count and layout complexity for multi-sensor systems without sacrificing DC precision or low-frequency noise.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC1051CSW#PBF?
The LTC1051CSW#PBF is specified for the commercial temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. This rating applies to all electrical characteristics unless otherwise noted in the datasheet, and aligns with industrial-grade sensor interface requirements. The device's 0.01µV/°C drift ensures minimal thermal-induced error across this full span.
Does the LTC1051CSW#PBF require external capacitors for chopper stabilization?
No, the LTC1051CSW#PBF integrates sample-and-hold capacitors on-die, eliminating the need for external 10nF–100nF hold capacitors typically required by other zero-drift op amps. This reduces PCB area, component count, and sensitivity to capacitor aging or parasitic leakage - a key differentiator confirmed in the LTC1051/LTC1053 datasheet Figure TA01a and package description section.
Can the LTC1051CSW#PBF operate from a single 5V supply?
Yes, the LTC1051CSW#PBF supports single-supply operation from 4.75V to 16V total supply voltage. With input common-mode range extending to V– (ground) and output swing to within 150mV of V–, it functions effectively in 5V systems - for example, driving SAR or sigma-delta ADCs referenced to ground without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the internal sampling frequency of the LTC1051CSW#PBF?
The LTC1051CSW#PBF operates with an internal sampling frequency of 3.3kHz, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table and verified in Typical Performance Characteristics Figure G02 and G03. This clock rate governs aliasing behavior and sets the upper limit for clean signal amplification before alias products appear - critical for anti-alias filter design in data acquisition systems.
Is the LTC1051CSW#PBF pin-compatible with standard dual op amp packages?
Yes, the LTC1051CSW#PBF uses a 16-pin wide-body SO (SW) package compatible with industry-standard dual op amp footprints. While pin count differs from 8-pin DIP/SO duals, its pin assignments for active terminals (V+, V–, ±IN A/B, OUT A/B) follow conventional dual-op-amp ordering - enabling layout reuse when migrating from older duals like LM358 in space-constrained SW designs.
