Product details
Overview
LTC6241IS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual, rail-to-rail output, low-noise CMOS operational amplifier in an 8-pin SO package, featuring 18MHz gain bandwidth, 10V/μs slew rate, and 125μV max input offset voltage at –40°C to 85°C. It delivers 550nVP-P 0.1Hz–10Hz noise and 7nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 1kHz, enabling precision signal conditioning in high-impedance sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6241IS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC6241IS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC6241IS8#TRPBF application, or LTC6241IS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 1pA max input bias current over temperature, rail-to-rail output swing within 30mV of rails, channel-to-channel VOS match ≤160μV, and operation from 2.8V to 6V single supply or ±2.5V dual supply.
Technical Context
The LTC6241IS8#TRPBF employs a unity-gain-stable CMOS input stage with 1012Ω input resistance and 3.5pF differential input capacitance, optimized for low-frequency precision and high-Z source driving. Its output stage uses complementary common-emitter architecture to achieve rail-to-rail swing while maintaining 10V/μs slew rate and 18MHz GBW under 1kΩ load.
It operates across –40°C to 85°C with guaranteed performance including 125μV max VOS, 2.5μV/°C max TCVOS, and 80dB min PSRR and CMRR over 0–3.5V common-mode range. Channel matching (VOS, CMRR, PSRR) is specified for dual-amplifier correlation in instrumentation topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-noise op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2189IDR | Zero-drift architecture; 0.003μV/°C TCVOS, but 5.2nV/√Hz noise (vs. 7nV/√Hz) and 20MHz GBW. | Better DC accuracy over temperature; higher noise limits use in low-frequency sensor apps below 10kHz. | Select OPA2189IDR when long-term DC stability dominates over low-frequency noise floor. |
| AD8622ARZ | FET input; 1pA max IB same, but 12MHz GBW, 5.5V/μs slew, and 650nVP-P 0.1–10Hz noise. | Lower bandwidth and higher 1/f noise reduce suitability for fast-sampling or high-resolution DC apps. | Select AD8622ARZ only if cost sensitivity outweighs need for 18MHz GBW and lowest 0.1–10Hz noise. |
Compared with OPA2189IDR and AD8622ARZ, the LTC6241IS8#TRPBF offers superior 0.1–10Hz noise performance and higher slew rate, making it optimal for precision DC-coupled applications where both low-frequency stability and moderate speed are required-without zero-drift chopper artifacts.

FAQ
What is the maximum guaranteed input bias current for LTC6241IS8#TRPBF over its full operating temperature range?
The LTC6241IS8#TRPBF guarantees ≤1pA maximum input bias current across its specified –40°C to 85°C operating temperature range, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table for LTC6241 S8 packages under "IB Input Bias Current" with "l" notation indicating full-range specification. This value applies to both amplifiers in the dual configuration and is critical for high-impedance transducer interfacing.
Does LTC6241IS8#TRPBF support true rail-to-rail output swing, and what is the worst-case voltage drop at rated load?
Yes, the LTC6241IS8#TRPBF provides rail-to-rail output swing with worst-case saturation voltages of ≤30mV above V– and ≤30mV below V+ at 1mA load, per the "VOL" and "VOH" specifications in the Electrical Characteristics tables. At 5mA load, the drop increases to ≤190mV - verified under –40°C to 85°C conditions with 5V supply, ensuring usable dynamic range in 3.3V and 5V systems.
What is the minimum supply voltage required for functional operation of LTC6241IS8#TRPBF, and is it specified over temperature?
The LTC6241IS8#TRPBF requires a minimum total supply voltage of 2.8V, guaranteed over its full –40°C to 85°C operating range (denoted by "l" in datasheet tables). This allows reliable operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0V min) or regulated 3.3V rails without brownout risk, and is validated by PSRR testing per Note 10 in the datasheet.
How does the 0.1Hz–10Hz noise specification of LTC6241IS8#TRPBF impact its suitability for DC-coupled sensor applications?
The 550nVP-P 0.1Hz–10Hz noise of LTC6241IS8#TRPBF directly determines baseline stability in DC-coupled applications like pH meters and thermopile detectors. This low 1/f noise floor ensures <1μV peak-to-peak drift over 10 seconds, enabling accurate sub-millivolt measurements without AC coupling or software averaging - a key differentiator versus higher-noise general-purpose op amps.
Is LTC6241IS8#TRPBF unity-gain stable, and what evidence confirms this in the datasheet?
Yes, the LTC6241IS8#TRPBF is explicitly specified as unity-gain stable in the product description ("unity gain stable CMOS op amps") and confirmed by phase margin >60° at 18MHz GBW in Figure G13 (Gain Bandwidth and Phase Margin vs Temperature) under 1kΩ load and 5pF capacitive load. No external compensation is required for gain ≥1 configurations, simplifying TIA and buffer designs.
