Product details
Overview
LTC6261IDC#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a single-channel, rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier optimized for micropower, low-noise signal conditioning in battery- or solar-powered systems. It delivers 30MHz gain-bandwidth, 7V/µs slew rate, 240µA supply current, 400µV max offset voltage, and stable operation driving up to 1nF capacitive loads - enabling high-fidelity ADC driver and active filter applications at 1.8V–5.25V supply.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6261IDC#TRPBF datasheet, LTC6261IDC#TRPBF pinout, LTC6261IDC#TRPBF application, or LTC6261IDC#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed –40°C to 85°C operating range, 6-lead 2mm × 2mm DFN package with exposed V– pad, shutdown capability (10µA max), and verified performance as an LTC2362 ADC driver with 72dB SNR and –83.6dB THD.
Technical Context
The LTC6261IDC#TRPBF uses a dual-input-stage architecture: PNP pair active below ~1V below V+, NPN pair active near V+, enabling true rail-to-rail input operation with <100nA bias current across 0.2V to V+–0.2V common-mode range. Its patented output buffer maintains unity-gain stability into 1nF while delivering >±10mA output current.
It integrates active bias current cancellation, internal ESD protection diodes on all pins, and a dedicated SHDN pin with 0.6V logic threshold referenced to V–. The exposed thermal pad (Pin 7) must be soldered to PCB for thermal management, supporting continuous operation at TJ ≤ 150°C with θJA = 80°C/W.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 30MHz - enables stable closed-loop gain ≥10 at 3MHz, suitable for anti-aliasing filters and SAR ADC front-ends. |
| Supply Current per Amplifier | 240µA max - allows 10+ years of operation on a 200mAh coin cell in always-on sensor nodes. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±400µV max - ensures ≤0.1% gain error in 12-bit precision instrumentation amplifiers. |
| Rail-to-Rail I/O | VIN = V––0.1V to V++0.1V; VOUT = V–+35mV to V+–60mV (no load) - supports ground-sensing and full-scale signal swing in single-supply 1.8V systems. |
| Capacitive Load Drive | Stable with up to 1nF - eliminates need for isolation resistors when driving ADC input capacitance or long PCB traces. |
| Shutdown Current | 10µA max - reduces system standby power by >95% versus active mode, critical for duty-cycled IoT sensors. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and automotive cabin electronics without derating. |
Pinout & Package
6-lead (2mm × 2mm × 0.8mm) plastic DFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 7) connected to V–. Requires soldering of exposed pad to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing/sinking >±10mA; high-impedance during shutdown. |
| 2 (–IN) | Inverting input | Accepts V––0.1V to V++0.1V; differential input voltage limited to ±3.6V. |
| 3 (SHDN) | Active-low shutdown control | Pulled up internally; drives <10µA quiescent current when ≤0.6V above V–. |
| 4 (V+) | Positive supply | 1.8V–5.25V range; requires 0.1µF bypass capacitor close to pin. |
| 5 (+IN) | Non-inverting input | Same voltage range and protection as –IN; matched input capacitance (0.4pF diff / 0.3pF cm). |
| 6 (V–) | Negative supply | Typically GND; must be bypassed if floating; exposed pad (Pin 7) is electrically tied to this pin. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX44260ASA+T | Lower GBW (10MHz), higher supply current (420µA), no shutdown pin | Not suitable for 30MHz filter or low-power shutdown modes | Select LTC6261IDC#TRPBF when 30MHz bandwidth and 10µA shutdown are required. |

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LTC6261IDC#TRPBF can drive stably?
The LTC6261IDC#TRPBF is unity-gain stable driving up to 1nF capacitive loads without external compensation, as verified in the datasheet's Capacitive Load Handling plot (Figure 28). This capability eliminates series isolation resistors when interfacing with SAR ADC inputs or long PCB traces, preserving signal integrity and simplifying layout.
Does the LTC6261IDC#TRPBF support true ground-sensing input?
Yes. The LTC6261IDC#TRPBF accepts input voltages down to V– – 0.1V, enabling direct connection to 0V-referenced sensors in single-supply systems. Its rail-to-rail input stage maintains <100nA bias current within 0.2V of either rail, ensuring minimal error in ground-sensing configurations like thermocouple or bridge sensor interfaces.
What is the shutdown behavior of the LTC6261IDC#TRPBF output?
When the SHDN pin is pulled ≤0.6V above V–, the LTC6261IDC#TRPBF output enters high-impedance state with leakage current <±100nA. The amplifier draws ≤10µA total supply current, and output recovery time after shutdown release is 15µs (tON), enabling rapid wake-up in duty-cycled sensor systems.
Is the exposed pad on the LTC6261IDC#TRPBF package electrically connected?
Yes. Pin 7 (exposed thermal pad) is internally connected to V– and must be soldered to a PCB copper pour tied to the V– net. This connection is mandatory for thermal dissipation (θJA = 80°C/W) and electrical stability - floating the pad risks overheating and oscillation due to degraded grounding.
How does the LTC6261IDC#TRPBF achieve low input bias current across its full common-mode range?
The LTC6261IDC#TRPBF uses active bias current cancellation circuitry that mirrors and subtracts the base currents of both PNP and NPN input transistor pairs. This achieves <100nA max IB over 0.2V to V+–0.2V, but degrades near the rails where cancellation is inactive - a trade-off explicitly documented in the datasheet's Input Bias Current vs Common Mode Voltage plots.
