Product details
Overview
LTC6244HMS8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual, rail-to-rail output, unity-gain stable CMOS operational amplifier optimized for low-noise, high-speed signal conditioning. It delivers 50MHz gain bandwidth, 40V/μs slew rate, 1pA input bias current, 1.5μVP-P 0.1Hz–10Hz noise, and operates from 2.8V to 6V supplies - making it ideal for photodiode amplification in precision medical and scientific instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6244HMS8#PBF datasheet, LTC6244HMS8#PBF pinout, LTC6244HMS8#PBF application, or LTC6244HMS8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 125°C operation, MS8 package thermal performance (θJA = 250°C/W), channel-to-channel matching specs (e.g., ≤160μV VOS match), and low-input-capacitance (2.1pF common-mode) critical for transimpedance stability.
Technical Context
The LTC6244HMS8#PBF employs a folded-cascode input stage with laser-trimmed MOSFETs to achieve ultra-low offset and drift, while its differential drive generator enables true rail-to-rail output swing within 35mV of either supply rail. Input common-mode range extends to the negative rail, supporting single-supply sensor interfaces.
Its architecture integrates internal compensation capacitor CM to maintain 50MHz GBW without external components, and features reverse-biased ESD diodes (4kV HBM) on all pins. The device is fully specified over –40°C to +125°C, with guaranteed performance including 2.5μV/°C max VOS drift and 75dB min PSRR.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 50MHz - supports stable closed-loop operation up to 50MHz at unity gain, enabling fast pulse amplification and active filter design. |
| Slew Rate | 40V/μs - ensures faithful reproduction of 10V-step signals in under 250ns, critical for high-fidelity data acquisition front-ends. |
| Input Bias Current | 1pA (typ @ 25°C) - minimizes voltage error in high-impedance photodiode or piezoelectric sensor interfaces (>1GΩ source resistance). |
| 0.1Hz–10Hz Noise | 1.5μVP-P - enables DC-coupled, low-frequency measurement without significant 1/f noise corruption, e.g., in EEG or strain gauge bridges. |
| Input Capacitance | 2.1pF (common-mode) - reduces phase margin degradation in transimpedance amplifiers, allowing stable operation with >1nF photodiode capacitance. |
| Supply Range | 2.8V to 6V - supports battery-powered portable instruments and industrial 3.3V/5V systems without level-shifting circuitry. |

Pinout & Package
The LTC6244HMS8#PBF is housed in an 8-lead plastic MSOP (MS8) package with exposed pad (not electrically connected). Thermal resistance θJA = 250°C/W enables operation at full spec without forced airflow in compact PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OUT A | Amplifier A output | Rail-to-rail swing (≤35mV from rails); drives 10kΩ load with <100μV error at 1mA sink/source. |
| 2 - –IN A | Inverting input A | Differential pair gate node; 2.1pF common-mode capacitance affects TIA stability and high-frequency CMRR. |
| 3 - +IN A | Non-inverting input A | Matches –IN A in offset and drift; laser-trimmed for ≤160μV channel-to-channel VOS match. |
| 4 - V– | Negative supply | Reference for internal biasing; exposed pad may be connected to V– for improved thermal performance. |
| 5 - V+ | Positive supply | Accepts 2.8V–6V; PSRR ≥75dB ensures immunity to digital supply noise in mixed-signal PCBs. |
| 6 - OUT B | Amplifier B output | Electrically isolated from OUT A; enables dual-path signal processing (e.g., differential photodiode pairs). |
| 7 - –IN B | Inverting input B | Matched to –IN A; CMRR ≥74dB (0–3.5V VCM) maintains accuracy in single-supply configurations. |
| 8 - +IN B | Non-inverting input B | Independent high-impedance node; supports separate sensor inputs without crosstalk (≥70dB channel separation @ 1MHz). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low input bias current | 1pA typ enables direct connection to >1GΩ sensors (e.g., pH electrodes, piezoresistive MEMS) without guard rings or leakage compensation. |
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Swings to within 35mV of V+ and V–, maximizing dynamic range in low-voltage (3V) systems and reducing headroom loss in battery-powered designs. |
| Laser-trimmed input offset | Max 125μV over –40°C to +125°C ensures minimal DC error in precision integrators and programmable gain amplifier (PGA) reference paths. |
| Low 1/f noise | 1.5μVP-P (0.1–10Hz) allows accurate DC-coupled amplification of slow biological signals (e.g., ECG baseline) without chopper-induced artifacts. |
| High CMRR & PSRR | ≥74dB CMRR and ≥75dB PSRR suppress common-mode interference from noisy digital supplies and ground loops in industrial I/O modules. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, low-noise op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADA4898-2ARMZ | Higher 1GHz GBW but 2.6nV/√Hz input noise (vs. 8–12nV/√Hz for LTC6244HMS8#PBF); 2.5mA supply current per amp (vs. 7.4mA). | Better for RF/IF gain blocks; less suitable for low-frequency precision due to higher broadband noise. | Select ADA4898-2ARMZ when >100MHz small-signal bandwidth is required; LTC6244HMS8#PBF preferred for sub-100kHz low-noise DC-coupled apps. |
| OPA2189IDR | Zero-drift architecture (0.005μV/°C drift vs. 2.5μV/°C); higher 1.2pA bias current; lower 5.2MHz GBW. | Superior long-term DC stability; unsuitable for >5MHz AC-coupled signal chains due to chopping artifacts. | Choose OPA2189IDR for microvolt-level DC accuracy over temperature; LTC6244HMS8#PBF for wideband analog front-ends requiring speed + low 1/f noise. |
Compared with ADA4898-2ARMZ and OPA2189IDR, the LTC6244HMS8#PBF uniquely balances 50MHz bandwidth, 1.5μVP-P 0.1–10Hz noise, and 1pA bias current - making it optimal for high-speed, high-impedance sensor interfaces where both precision and bandwidth are simultaneously critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature specification for the LTC6244HMS8#PBF?
The LTC6244HMS8#PBF is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature, with full electrical specifications guaranteed across this range. Its MS8 package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 250°C/W, requiring appropriate PCB copper area for thermal management at elevated temperatures.
Does the LTC6244HMS8#PBF support single-supply operation?
Yes, the LTC6244HMS8#PBF supports true single-supply operation from 2.8V to 6V. Its input common-mode range extends to the negative rail (V–), and its rail-to-rail output swings within 35mV of both supply rails - enabling use in 3.3V or 5V systems without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical input bias current of the LTC6244HMS8#PBF at 125°C?
The LTC6244HMS8#PBF maintains exceptionally low input bias current across temperature: 1pA typical at 25°C and ≤2pA maximum at +125°C (per Electrical Characteristics table on page 6 of the datasheet), ensuring minimal error in high-impedance sensor interfaces even under extreme thermal conditions.
Can the LTC6244HMS8#PBF drive capacitive loads directly?
The LTC6244HMS8#PBF is not unity-gain stable into heavy capacitive loads. For loads >100pF, external series resistance (e.g., 10–50Ω) is recommended at the output to prevent peaking or oscillation - as validated in Figure G30–G32 of the datasheet. Stability with photodiode capacitance is achieved via proper transimpedance layout and feedback network design.
How does the LTC6244HMS8#PBF compare to the LTC6244HV variant?
The LTC6244HMS8#PBF is the standard-voltage version (2.8V–6V supply), while the LTC6244HVHMS8#PBF supports ±5V operation (±2.5V to ±5.25V). Both share identical noise, bandwidth, and bias current specs, but the HV variant adds extended common-mode input range (–5V to +3.5V) and higher short-circuit current (40–55mA vs. 20–25mA).
