Product details
Overview
LTC2050CS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a zero-drift operational amplifier in an 8-lead SOIC package, designed for precision DC-coupled signal conditioning. It delivers 0.5µV typical input offset voltage, 10nV/°C drift, 1.5µVP-P (0.01Hz–10Hz) noise, and rail-to-rail output swing into 2kΩ loads-enabling high-accuracy thermocouple amplification and strain gauge interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2050CS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC2050CS8#TRPBF application, or LTC2050CS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 3µV max offset, 30nV/°C max drift, 3MHz gain bandwidth, 140dB open-loop gain, and operation from 2.7V to 6V single supply with no shutdown function in this variant.
Technical Context
The LTC2050CS8#TRPBF implements auto-zeroing architecture with a 7.5kHz internal sampling clock to continuously correct input offset and 1/f noise, achieving near-zero DC error over temperature and time. Its input stage supports common-mode voltage from V– to (V+ – 1.3V), and its enhanced output stage drives rail-to-rail into 2kΩ while maintaining >130dB PSRR and CMRR across frequency.
This variant belongs to the C-grade (0°C to 70°C) LTC2050 family and lacks shutdown functionality-confirmed by absence of SHDN pin in the S8 package configuration and omission of shutdown current specs in its electrical characteristics table. It uses standard SO-8 pinout with NC pins at positions 1 and 7.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic SOIC (narrow, 0.150-inch body), JEDEC MS-012, 1.27mm pitch, 5.0mm × 4.0mm footprint, 1.75mm max height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No Connect (NC) | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice-no functional impact. |
| 2 | Inverting Input (–IN) | Differential input node; high-impedance (1.7pF capacitance), sensitive to PCB leakage and ESD-requires guard ring in high-Z applications. |
| 3 | Non-Inverting Input (+IN) | Differential input node; matched bias current to –IN; common-mode range extends to V– and within 1.3V of V+. |
| 4 | V– (Ground / Negative Supply) | Reference return for single-supply operation; connects to system ground or negative rail; thermal pad not present in SOIC. |
| 5 | Output (OUT) | Class AB rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing/sinking ±10mA; settles to 0.1% in <2µs for small-signal steps. |
| 6 | V+ (Positive Supply) | Power input; requires local 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed ≤2mm from pin to minimize PSRR degradation above 10kHz. |
| 7 | No Connect (NC) | Internally unconnected; electrically isolated-no routing or termination required. |
| 8 | Shutdown (SHDN) | Not implemented in LTC2050CS8#TRPBF; pin is unused and must be left floating-no shutdown capability in this variant. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2051CS8#TRPBF | Dual-channel version in same SO-8 package; shares identical offset (±0.5µV), drift (10nV/°C), and noise (1.5µVP-P) specs but doubles channel count. | Required when two matched zero-drift amps are needed in one package-e.g., instrumentation amp + reference buffer. | Select LTC2051CS8#TRPBF only if dual-channel functionality is essential; otherwise LTC2050CS8#TRPBF offers lower cost and power per channel. |
| LTC1050CS8#PBF | Higher supply current (1.2mA vs. 0.8mA), wider supply range (4.75V–16V), no auto-zero clock feedthrough (chopper-stabilized), but higher 0.1Hz–10Hz noise (2.5µVP-P). | Better suited for high-voltage single-supply systems (>6V) where clock feedthrough must be eliminated-even at expense of higher noise. | Choose LTC1050CS8#PBF only for >6V supplies or strict clock-noise avoidance; LTC2050CS8#TRPBF is superior for 3.3V/5V low-noise DC precision. |
Compared with LTC2051CS8#TRPBF and LTC1050CS8#PBF, the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF provides optimal balance of ultra-low offset, lowest 0.01Hz–10Hz noise, and 3.3V/5V compatibility-making it the preferred choice for single-channel, battery- or USB-powered precision analog front-ends.

FAQ
What is the maximum input offset voltage specification for the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF?
The LTC2050CS8#TRPBF has a maximum input offset voltage of ±3µV across its specified 0°C to 70°C temperature range. This guaranteed limit-combined with its 10nV/°C typical drift-ensures predictable DC performance in precision sensor interfaces without post-manufacturing trimming. The ±3µV spec is validated per Analog Devices' production test flow and applies to all C-grade units shipped as LTC2050CS8#TRPBF.
Does the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF include a shutdown feature?
No, the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF does not include a functional shutdown feature. Although the SO-8 package has a pin 8 labeled "SHDN" in the generic LTC2050 pinout, this pin is unused in the C-grade SO-8 variant and must be left floating. Shutdown functionality is only present in 6-lead SOT-23 and SO-8 versions marked with "S6" or "HV" suffixes (e.g., LTC2050HS6#TRPBF). The LTC2050CS8#TRPBF draws 0.8mA continuously under normal operation.
What is the input common-mode voltage range for the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF?
The LTC2050CS8#TRPBF supports an input common-mode voltage range from the negative supply rail (V–) up to (V+ – 1.3V). At a 5V single supply, this means inputs can operate from 0V to 3.7V-enabling direct interfacing with grounded sensors, bridge circuits, and other low-side referenced sources without level-shifting circuitry. This extended range is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Common Mode Rejection Ratio" conditions.
Can the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF drive a 2kΩ load rail-to-rail?
Yes, the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF is explicitly characterized to drive 2kΩ loads rail-to-rail. Per the Electrical Characteristics table, its output voltage swing is specified as 2.85V minimum high and 10mV maximum low (at 5V supply, RL = 2kΩ to GND), delivering >99% of the full supply range. This capability is enabled by its enhanced output stage and is critical for maximizing dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition systems using the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF.
Is the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF suitable for automotive applications?
No, the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF is not qualified for automotive use. It is rated for 0°C to 70°C operation (C-grade) and lacks AEC-Q100 qualification. Automotive-grade variants exist-such as the LTC2050HVMPS6#WTRPBF-but these use different packages (6-lead TSOT-23), temperature grades (–55°C to 150°C), and manufacturing controls. For automotive designs, engineers must select explicitly designated W-suffix parts; the LTC2050CS8#TRPBF is intended for commercial and industrial instrumentation only.
