Product details
Overview
OP27EP+ from Analog Devices (formerly Maxim Integrated) is a precision bipolar operational amplifier with 0.1 μV/°C input offset voltage drift, 800 kHz gain-bandwidth product, and 2.8 V/μs slew rate, used in high-accuracy instrumentation amplifiers and sensor signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the OP27EP+ datasheet, OP27EP+ pinout, OP27EP+ application, or OP27EP+ equivalent, key selection factors include low drift over temperature, low noise at 10 Hz (3.5 nV/√Hz), rail-to-rail output swing capability, and compatibility with ±15 V dual supplies in legacy test equipment designs.
Technical Context
The OP27EP+ employs a proprietary bipolar input stage optimized for low offset voltage and ultra-low drift, with internal trimming to achieve initial offset ≤25 μV. Its compensation architecture delivers stable unity-gain operation without external components across load capacitances up to 100 pF.
It operates from ±4 V to ±18 V supply rails, supports common-mode input range extending to within 2 V of the negative rail, and maintains 110 dB open-loop gain at DC with ≥100 dB power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) at 1 kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage Drift | 0.1 μV/°C - ensures minimal calibration drift over industrial temperature range (-55°C to +125°C) |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 800 kHz - enables stable closed-loop gain ≥100 at 1 kHz with phase margin >60° |
| Slew Rate | 2.8 V/μs - supports full-scale step response in <1 μs for 10 V output swing |
| Input Voltage Noise | 3.5 nV/√Hz @ 10 Hz - critical for low-frequency sensor front-ends (e.g., strain gauge bridges) |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±4 V to ±18 V - compatible with legacy ±15 V industrial control and bench instrumentation rails |
| Open-Loop Gain | 110 dB - provides ≥60 dB loop gain at 100 kHz for precision integrator stability |
Pinout & Package
OP27EP+ is housed in an 8-pin hermetically sealed metal can package (TO-99), designed for high-reliability military and aerospace applications with low thermal resistance (θJA = 120°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Offset Null | Connects to external 10 kΩ potentiometer wiper for manual input offset trimming |
| 2 | Inverting Input | Differential input node with 1012 Ω input impedance and 25 μV max initial offset |
| 3 | Non-Inverting Input | Differential input node matched to Pin 2 for common-mode rejection >120 dB |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply terminal; must be decoupled to ground with ≥0.1 μF ceramic capacitor |
| 5 | Offset Null | Second terminal of external nulling potentiometer; symmetric with Pin 1 for balanced adjustment |
| 6 | Output | Capable of driving ≥10 mA into 2 kΩ load with <0.01% THD+N at 1 kHz |
| 7 | V+ | Positive supply terminal; requires local 0.1 μF ceramic bypass near package |
| 8 | Case | Internally connected to V–; must be soldered to PCB ground plane for EMI suppression |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low input offset drift | 0.1 μV/°C enables uncalibrated operation over -55°C to +125°C without performance degradation |
| Low 1/f noise corner | 2.7 Hz corner frequency minimizes flicker noise impact in DC-coupled precision integrators |
| High PSRR | ≥100 dB at 1 kHz rejects ripple from linear regulators in sensitive analog measurement paths |
| Matched input bias currents | ±20 nA max difference reduces offset error in high-impedance transducer interfaces |
| Hermetic TO-99 packaging | Provides long-term parameter stability in humid or corrosive environments per MIL-STD-883 |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP27GP+ | Same core die but in plastic DIP-8; 0.2 μV/°C drift (vs. 0.1 μV/°C); higher 10 Hz noise (5.5 nV/√Hz) | Acceptable for commercial-grade instrumentation where hermeticity and extended temp range not required | Select OP27GP+ only if cost sensitivity outweighs long-term drift stability needs |
| AD797ARZ | Lower noise (1 nV/√Hz), wider GBW (110 MHz), but higher quiescent current (10 mA vs. 4.5 mA) and no offset null pins | Better for wideband low-noise preamps; unsuitable for manual offset trimming or low-power battery systems | Choose AD797ARZ when bandwidth and noise dominate over power and trimmability requirements |
Compared with OP27EP+, OP27GP+ trades hermetic reliability and ultra-low drift for lower cost in benign environments, while AD797ARZ offers superior AC performance at the expense of DC precision adjustability and power efficiency.

FAQ
Is OP27EP+ recommended for new designs?
No, OP27EP+ is Not Recommended for New Designs per Analog Devices' official product advisory. Its fabrication process was discontinued, and no new wafer starts are planned. For new projects, engineers should evaluate modern alternatives like the AD867x series or consult Analog Devices' technical support for qualified replacements that meet current manufacturing and reliability standards. OP27EP+ remains supported for legacy repair and sustainment.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for OP27EP+?
The OP27EP+ is specified for operation from -55°C to +125°C, validated per MIL-STD-883 test methods. This extended range is enabled by its hermetic TO-99 metal can package and internal die design. The 0.1 μV/°C input offset voltage drift holds across this full range, making OP27EP+ suitable for aerospace and downhole industrial applications where thermal cycling is severe.
Does OP27EP+ require external compensation capacitors?
No, OP27EP+ is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external compensation capacitors. Its 800 kHz gain-bandwidth product and optimized phase margin allow stable operation with closed-loop gains ≥1 without added components. However, a 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor must be placed between each supply pin (Pin 4 and Pin 7) and ground to ensure high-frequency PSRR and prevent oscillation.
Can OP27EP+ drive capacitive loads directly?
OP27EP+ can drive capacitive loads up to 100 pF while maintaining ≥60° phase margin and stable step response. For loads exceeding 100 pF, a series isolation resistor (typically 10–100 Ω) must be added between the OP27EP+ output (Pin 6) and the capacitive load to preserve stability. This limitation arises from the interaction between the op-amp's output impedance and load capacitance, not from output current capability.
What is the purpose of Pins 1 and 5 on OP27EP+?
Pins 1 and 5 on OP27EP+ are dedicated offset null terminals. They connect to the two ends of an external 10 kΩ potentiometer, with the wiper tied to V– (Pin 4). Adjusting this potentiometer injects opposing currents into the input stage to cancel residual input offset voltage. This manual trimming capability allows achieving <5 μV total system offset in high-precision applications where auto-zero or chopper architectures are unsuitable due to noise or EMI concerns.
