Product details
Overview
LTC6090CFE#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-voltage, precision CMOS rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for ±70V (140V total) supply operation. It delivers 12MHz gain-bandwidth, 21V/µs slew rate, 50mA output drive, picoamp input bias current (50pA max), and 1.25mV max input offset voltage - enabling high-impedance buffering and high-gain signal conditioning in photodiode amplifiers, piezo drivers, and high-voltage DAC buffers.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6090CFE#PBF datasheet, LTC6090CFE#PBF pinout, LTC6090CFE#PBF application, or LTC6090CFE#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 0°C to 70°C junction temperature range, TSSOP-16E thermally enhanced package with exposed V– pad, thermal warning flag (TFLAG), output disable (OD) control, and compatibility with ±4.75V to ±70V supplies while driving up to 200pF loads.
Technical Context
The LTC6090CFE#PBF implements a proprietary high-voltage CMOS input stage with guarded differential pair architecture and rail-to-rail output stage capable of sourcing/sinking 50mA. Its internal thermal protection triggers TFLAG at 145°C with 5°C hysteresis and forces full shutdown at 175°C.
It supports unity-gain stability (LTC6090 variant) and features low 11nV/√Hz input voltage noise density, 3.5µVP-P 0.1Hz–10Hz noise, and 130dB minimum CMRR - all specified over ±70V supplies. The COM pin enables safe interfacing to low-voltage logic by establishing a reference for OD and TFLAG signals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | ±4.75V to ±70V (140V total); supports unbalanced split supplies and single-ended high-side configurations. |
| Input Bias Current | 50pA maximum at ±70V; enables ultra-high-impedance sensor interfaces without significant DC error. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 1.25mV maximum; ensures <±125µV error in 100× gain stages at room temperature. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 12MHz typical; supports stable closed-loop operation up to ~120kHz at AV = 100. |
| Slew Rate | 21V/µs typical; enables 100VP–P output swing within <5µs settling time (0.1%). |
| Output Drive | ±50mA continuous; drives capacitive loads up to 200pF while maintaining stability. |
| Thermal Warning Threshold | TFLAG activates at 145°C die temperature; provides early overtemperature indication before shutdown. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC6090CFE#PBF is housed in a 16-lead plastic TSSOP package with exposed pad (Pin 17), electrically connected to V– and requiring soldering to PCB for thermal performance (θJC = 10°C/W). Guard pins (2,3,6,7,10,11,13,15) support guard ring implementation around high-impedance inputs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (COM) | Common reference node | Establishes logic-level ground reference for OD and TFLAG; must be tied to low-voltage system ground or floated (internal divider sets ~30% mid-supply). |
| Pins 2,3,6,7,10,11,13,15 (GUARD) | Guard ring terminals | Enable low-leakage guard rings around –IN/+IN; reduce board leakage and improve CMRR in high-impedance applications. |
| Pin 4 (–IN) | Inverting input | Operates from V– + 3V to V+ – 3V; protected by back-to-back diodes and current-limiting resistors. |
| Pin 5 (+IN) | Noninverting input | Same common-mode range as –IN; guarded layout recommended to minimize leakage-induced offset drift. |
| Pin 8 (V–) | Negative supply | Connect directly to negative rail; exposed pad (Pin 17) is internally bonded to V– and must be soldered to PCB ground plane. |
| Pin 9,17 (TFLAG) | Open-drain thermal flag | Sinks 200µA when die ≥145°C; requires external pull-up to COM or logic supply for active-low signaling. |
| Pin 12 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Rail-to-rail swing (±70V); avoid forward-biasing ESD diodes by limiting output beyond V+/V– rails. |
| Pin 14 (V+) | Positive supply | Accepts up to +70V; bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor close to pin for stability. |
| Pin 16 (OD) | Active-low output disable | Pulled up internally (2MΩ); drives low (≤0.65V relative to COM) to disable output stage while preserving input bias. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output stage | Delivers ±70V swing into 10kΩ load with <500mV headroom; maintains linearity across full output range. |
| Thermal warning & shutdown | TFLAG alerts at 145°C; secondary shutdown at 175°C with 7°C hysteresis prevents irreversible junction damage. |
| Guard pin architecture | Eight dedicated guard pins enable complete guard ring enclosure of –IN/+IN nodes, reducing board leakage by >10×. |
| Low-noise precision performance | 3.5µVP-P (0.1–10Hz) and 11nV/√Hz (1kHz) noise support sub-picoamp photodiode current measurement. |
| Output disable with standby mode | OD pin reduces supply current to 580µA (typ) while keeping input stage active - ideal for power-gated systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1490AIS8#PBF | Lower supply (±40V), higher input bias (250pA), no TFLAG/OD, SO-8 only | Limited to ≤±40V systems; lacks thermal monitoring and output disable for safety-critical HV designs | Select when cost-sensitive, lower-voltage (<±40V), and thermal management is handled externally. |
| OPA454IDDA | Higher supply (±50V), higher IB (10nA), no guard pins, DDA-8 package | Not suitable for ultra-high-Z photodiode apps; lacks guard architecture and TSSOP thermal enhancement | Choose for industrial motor control where 50mA drive and ±50V suffice but pA-level bias isn't required. |
Compared with LT1490AIS8#PBF and OPA454IDDA, the LTC6090CFE#PBF uniquely combines ±70V operation, 50pA input bias, integrated thermal flag, output disable, and TSSOP guard pins - making it the only option for precision, safety-aware, ultra-high-impedance 140V applications.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC6090CFE#PBF?
The LTC6090CFE#PBF is specified for a junction temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This grade is validated for commercial applications and differs from the I-grade (–40°C to 85°C) and H-grade (–40°C to 125°C) variants. Thermal derating must be applied if ambient conditions exceed this range, using θJA = 57°C/W (typical with moderate PCB copper).
Does the LTC6090CFE#PBF require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No - the LTC6090CFE#PBF is unity-gain stable by design. Unlike the LTC6090-5 variant (stable only at noise gain ≥5), the LTC6090CFE#PBF supports AV = 1 configurations without external compensation. Its phase margin exceeds 60° at unity gain with 10kΩ load and 50pF capacitance, per Figure G01 in the datasheet.
How is the COM pin used in low-voltage interface circuits with the LTC6090CFE#PBF?
The COM pin on the LTC6090CFE#PBF serves as the reference node for OD and TFLAG logic-level signaling. It should be tied to the low-voltage system ground (e.g., 3.3V or 5V domain) to ensure safe voltage levels between OD/COM and TFLAG/COM remain within –3V to +7V. If left floating, COM rises to ~30% of mid-supply due to internal resistive divider.
Can the LTC6090CFE#PBF drive capacitive loads up to 200pF without oscillation?
Yes - the LTC6090CFE#PBF is characterized to drive up to 200pF capacitive loads while maintaining stability under specified conditions (RL = 10kΩ, AV ≥ 1). Stability is ensured via internal compensation; however, layout best practices (short traces, local bypassing, guard rings) are essential to preserve phase margin in high-CL applications.
What is the function of the guard pins on the LTC6090CFE#PBF TSSOP package?
The eight guard pins (2,3,6,7,10,11,13,15) on the LTC6090CFE#PBF enable physical implementation of a guard ring around the –IN and +IN nodes. When driven at the same potential as the inputs (e.g., via unity-gain follower), they reduce PCB surface leakage currents by >10×, critical for maintaining low offset drift in picoamp-level photodiode and electrometer applications.
