Product details
Overview
LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a single-channel, decompensated FET-input operational amplifier optimized for ultra-low input bias current (±3 fA typ. at 25°C), 0.45 pF common-mode input capacitance, and 4 GHz gain-bandwidth product. It operates from 3.1 V to 5.25 V, delivers rail-to-rail output swing, and is gain-of-10 stable - making it ideal for high-speed transimpedance amplifiers in photodiode and photomultiplier tube signal chains.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF datasheet, LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF pinout, LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF application, or LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include femtoamp-level input bias current stability over temperature, sub-0.5 pF input capacitance for TIA bandwidth optimization, shutdown functionality with 360 ns turn-on time, and compatibility with low-noise, high-impedance sensor front-ends requiring minimal board leakage interference.
Technical Context
The LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF employs a CMOS input buffer stage that bootstraps protection diodes to suppress leakage, enabling ±3 fA typical input bias current. Its complementary differential input pair covers the full input common-mode range (–0.1 V to 4.5 V on 5 V supply), with active switching between PNP- and NPN-dominated regions to maintain linearity and CMRR > 68 dB across voltage and temperature.
As a decompensated op amp, it requires minimum noise gain of 10 for stability and achieves 210 MHz transimpedance bandwidth with 20 kΩ feedback. Its 4.0 nV/√Hz voltage noise at 1 MHz and 7 fA/√Hz current noise at 100 kHz are balanced for optimal SNR in wideband, high-Z current-to-voltage conversion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 4 GHz - enables stable gain-of-10 operation with >200 MHz closed-loop bandwidth in TIA configurations. |
| Input Bias Current | ±3 fA (typ., 25°C); ≤4 pA (max., 125°C) - preserves signal integrity in femtoamp photodiode and ion-sensor applications. |
| Input Capacitance | 0.45 pF (common-mode) - minimizes pole formation with feedback resistor, critical for maximizing TIA bandwidth. |
| Slew Rate | +1500 V/µs / –1000 V/µs - supports fast large-signal settling in pulsed optical detection systems. |
| Supply Range | 3.1 V to 5.25 V - compatible with standard 3.3 V and 5 V rails; supports split-supply operation if V+ – V– stays within range. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.39–1.5 mA (per amp) - reduces power during idle periods without compromising wake-up latency (360 ns tON). |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to 85°C - qualified for industrial and instrumentation environments; H-grade variant extends to 125°C. |
Pinout & Package
The LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF is housed in a 6-lead TSOT-23 package (S6), with exposed pad not connected internally. Pin 1 (V+) supplies positive rail; Pin 2 (SHDN) enables low-power mode when pulled below 0.75 V; Pins 3 (–IN) and 6 (+IN) form the high-impedance FET input pair; Pin 4 (OUT) delivers rail-to-rail output; Pin 5 (V–) is the negative supply reference (typically ground). No NC pins - all six terminals are functional.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive power supply input | Accepts 3.1–5.25 V; requires local 0.1 µF bypass capacitor to minimize supply-induced noise coupling. |
| SHDN | Active-low shutdown control | Pull ≤0.75 V to disable amplifier; floating or ≥1.5 V enables operation; draws <12 µA in either state. |
| –IN | Inverting input terminal | High-impedance FET node (RIN >1 TΩ); voltage range: V– to V+ – 0.5 V; sensitive to PCB leakage - guard ring recommended. |
| OUT | Amplifier output | Rail-to-rail swing (e.g., 80 mV above V– and 70 mV below V+ at 10 mA load); capable of 135 mA peak sourcing/sinking. |
| V– | Negative power supply reference | Typically grounded; supports split supplies as long as total V+–V– remains 3.1–5.25 V; bypass to ground with 0.1 µF. |
| +IN | Non-inverting input terminal | Matches –IN in impedance and leakage; identical common-mode range and ESD protection structure. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Femtoamp input bias current | ±3 fA typ. at 25°C ensures minimal error in high-impedance current measurement circuits (e.g., photodiode amps). |

| Gain-of-10 stability | Decompensated architecture eliminates need for external compensation in fixed-gain ≥10 designs, simplifying layout. |
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 70–200 mV of either rail under 10–25 mA load, maximizing dynamic range in single-supply systems. |
| Integrated shutdown | 360 ns turn-on / 183 ns turn-off delays allow rapid power cycling in burst-mode optical receivers without signal loss. |

FAQ
What is the minimum stable gain for LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF?
The LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF is decompensated and specified as gain-of-10 stable. It must be operated with noise gain ≥10 (e.g., non-inverting gain ≥10 or inverting gain magnitude ≥9) to ensure phase margin >45° and avoid oscillation. Using it at lower gains requires external compensation.
Does LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF support split-supply operation?
Yes - LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF supports split supplies as long as the total voltage difference between V+ and V– remains within 3.1 V to 5.25 V. For example, ±2.5 V (5 V total) is valid; input common-mode range extends from V– to V+ – 0.5 V, and output swings rail-to-rail relative to V– and V+.
How does the SHDN pin behave when left unconnected?
When the SHDN pin of LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF is left unconnected, the amplifier remains fully enabled. The internal pull-up ensures VIH > 1.5 V, satisfying the enable threshold. No external pull-up is required, though a 100 kΩ resistor to V+ may improve noise immunity in high-EMI environments.
Can LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF drive capacitive loads directly?
LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF is not optimized for direct capacitive loading. Driving >10 pF without isolation risks instability due to phase shift. For ADC driving or cable termination, use a small series resistor (10–50 Ω) between OUT and the load, or add a unity-gain buffer stage to preserve bandwidth and settle time.
What is the maximum input common-mode voltage for LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF on a 5 V supply?
On a 5 V supply (V+ = 5 V, V– = 0 V), the guaranteed input common-mode voltage range for LTC6268IS6-10#TRPBF is –0.1 V to 4.5 V - i.e., up to 0.5 V below V+. This is enforced by CMRR specification and applies across the full –40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.
