Product details
Overview
LTC1541CS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower integrated circuit combining a rail-to-rail op amp, comparator, and 1.2V ±1% bandgap reference in a single SO-8 package. It operates from 2.5V to 12.6V single supply with 5µA typical quiescent current, features 12kHz gain-bandwidth, ±2.25mV comparator hysteresis, and drives up to 1000pF capacitive load - ideal for low-power battery monitoring and sensor interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1541CS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC1541CS8#TRPBF application, or LTC1541CS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5µA supply current, 1.2V reference accuracy over –40°C to 85°C, rail-to-rail output swing, 1.3V input common-mode headroom, and compatibility with 0.01µF reference bypass capacitance without oscillation.
Technical Context
The LTC1541CS8#TRPBF integrates three functional blocks on one die: a unity-gain-stable CMOS op amp (12kHz GBW, 8V/ms slew rate), a comparator with internal hysteresis and rail-to-rail CMOS output (20mA source/5mA sink), and a buffered 1.2V bandgap reference connected internally to the comparator's inverting input. All inputs share a common-mode range from VSS to VCC – 1.3V.
This architecture enables self-contained threshold detection without external reference components. The reference output sources up to 2mA and sinks 20µA while maintaining ±1% accuracy across temperature, and the op amp's 1nA max input bias current supports high-impedance sensor interfacing in ultra-low-power systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.5V to 12.6V single supply - supports wide-input battery and industrial power rails without regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 5µA typical - enables multi-year operation from coin cells or energy-harvesting sources. |
| Reference Voltage | 1.200V ±1% over –40°C to 85°C - provides stable comparator trip point without external precision reference. |
| Comparator Hysteresis | ±2.25mV - prevents chatter on slow-moving or noisy input signals in alarm and detector applications. |
| Op Amp GBW | 12kHz - sufficient for DC-coupled sensor amplification and low-frequency filtering in smoke detectors or IR receivers. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | VSS to VCC – 1.3V - allows direct sensing of ground-referenced signals in single-supply systems. |
| Capacitive Load Drive | 1000pF for op amp, 0.01µF for reference - eliminates need for external isolation resistors in most bypass configurations. |

| 3 (AMPIN+) | Op amp noninverting input | CMOS input; ≤1nA bias current; same common-mode range as AMPIN– - supports ground-sensing configurations. |
| 4 (VSS) | Negative supply / ground | Reference node for all analog blocks; must be low-impedance for stable reference and comparator operation. |
| 5 (COMPIN+) | Comparator noninverting input | High-impedance CMOS node; accepts signals from VSS to VCC – 1.3V - used for threshold comparison against REF. |
| 6 (REF) | 1.2V reference output | Internally connected to COMPIN–; sources 2mA/sinks 20µA; stable with 0.01µF bypass - eliminates external reference IC. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower op amp/comparator/reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX951ESA+ | Pin-compatible SO-8; 1.18V reference (±2%), 8µA ICC, no rail-to-rail op amp output. | Lower reference accuracy and higher supply current; op amp output limited to VCC – 0.8V. | Select MAX951ESA+ only if legacy pinout compatibility is required and 1.2V ±1% reference stability is not critical. |
| TLV7032IDR | Separate dual comparator (no op amp or reference); 1.8V–5.5V supply; 650nA per comparator. | Requires external op amp and reference; lower ICC but higher total component count and board area. | Choose TLV7032IDR when ultra-low ICC (<1µA) dominates design priority and integration is secondary. |
Compared with MAX951ESA+, LTC1541CS8#TRPBF delivers tighter reference accuracy (±1% vs ±2%) and rail-to-rail output, enabling higher ADC utilization; versus TLV7032IDR, it trades 1µA ICC savings for significant BOM reduction and simplified layout via monolithic integration.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range guaranteed for the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF?
The LTC1541CS8#TRPBF is specified for commercial-grade operation from 0°C to 70°C and is characterized to function reliably from –40°C to 85°C. Its 1.2V reference maintains ±1% accuracy across the –40°C to 85°C range, making LTC1541CS8#TRPBF suitable for industrial and automotive interior environments.
Can the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF drive a 1000pF capacitive load with the op amp output?
Yes, the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF op amp is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and explicitly rated to drive up to 1000pF without oscillation. This capability allows direct connection to sampling capacitors in SAR ADCs or long PCB traces without added isolation resistors - a key advantage confirmed in the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF datasheet Figure TPC11.
How is the reference voltage used internally in the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF?
In the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF, the 1.2V reference output (Pin 6) is internally connected to the comparator's inverting input (COMPIN–). This configuration enables immediate threshold detection using only the noninverting input (COMPIN+) - eliminating external resistive dividers and ensuring consistent trip points across temperature and supply variations in LTC1541CS8#TRPBF designs.
Does the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF require external bypass capacitors on VCC?
A 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from VCC (Pin 8) to VSS (Pin 4) is recommended for stable operation, especially in noisy environments. While the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF can operate without it under low-impedance supply conditions, the datasheet specifies this bypass as good practice to suppress supply transients that could disturb the 1.2V reference or cause false comparator triggering in LTC1541CS8#TRPBF applications.
What is the maximum source/sink current capability of the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF comparator output?
The COMPOUT pin (Pin 7) of the LTC1541CS8#TRPBF can source up to 20mA and sink up to 5mA continuously. This allows direct driving of LEDs, small relays, or microcontroller interrupt inputs without external buffer transistors - a verified specification found in the Electrical Characteristics table under VOH/VOL test conditions for LTC1541CS8#TRPBF.
