Product details
Overview
OP90GP from Maxim Integrated is a precision operational amplifier featuring 75 µV input offset voltage, 0.3 µV/°C offset drift, and 9.5 V/µs slew rate, designed for low-power sensor signal conditioning in battery-powered instrumentation and medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the OP90GP datasheet, OP90GP pinout, OP90GP application, or OP90GP equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail output swing, ±1.5 V to ±18 V supply range, 10 nA input bias current, and guaranteed operation over –40°C to +85°C.
Technical Context
The OP90GP employs a bipolar input stage optimized for low offset and drift, with internal compensation enabling unity-gain stability. Its output drives loads down to 2 kΩ while maintaining linearity across the full temperature range.
It operates from dual supplies (±1.5 V to ±18 V) or single supply (3 V to 36 V), supporting unipolar and bipolar signal paths without external level-shifting circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 75 µV max - ensures minimal DC error in precision gain stages |
| Offset Drift | 0.3 µV/°C - maintains accuracy over industrial temperature range |
| Slew Rate | 9.5 V/µs - supports 10 kHz full-power bandwidth at 10 V output swing |
| Supply Range | ±1.5 V to ±18 V - enables operation from low-voltage rails up to high-voltage analog front-ends |
| Input Bias Current | 10 nA max - minimizes voltage drop across high-impedance sensor sources |
| Output Swing | Rail-to-rail - delivers maximum dynamic range into 2 kΩ load |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems |
Pinout & Package
OP90GP is housed in an 8-pin plastic DIP package (0.300" width), with standard op-amp pinout: Pin 1 = Offset Null, Pin 2 = Inverting Input, Pin 3 = Non-Inverting Input, Pin 4 = V–, Pin 5 = Offset Null, Pin 6 = Output, Pin 7 = V+, Pin 8 = NC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 & Pin 5 | Offset Null | Connect external potentiometer to trim input offset voltage to <10 µV |
| Pin 2 | Inverting Input | High-impedance node for feedback network connection in inverting configurations |
| Pin 3 | Non-Inverting Input | High-impedance node for reference or sensor input in non-inverting configurations |
| Pin 4 | V– | Negative supply terminal - must be decoupled with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor |
| Pin 6 | Output | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±20 mA into resistive loads ≥2 kΩ |
| Pin 7 | V+ | Positive supply terminal - requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling |
| Pin 8 | No Connect | Internally unused - must remain floating, not tied to any potential |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Input Offset Voltage | 75 µV max enables sub-0.1% gain error in 100× instrumentation amplifiers |
| Ultra-Low Offset Drift | 0.3 µV/°C limits thermal-induced error to <2.5 µV over 85°C span |
| Rail-to-Rail Output | Swings within 20 mV of either rail into 2 kΩ, maximizing ADC input utilization |
| Wide Supply Range | Operates from ±1.5 V to ±18 V, supporting both portable and industrial power architectures |
| Offset Null Capability | Dual null pins allow precise calibration without affecting common-mode rejection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA277PA | Higher 25 µV offset, lower 0.1 µV/°C drift, wider 36 V supply range | Better drift performance but higher cost and larger SO-8 footprint | Preferred when long-term thermal stability outweighs initial offset tolerance |
| LT1013DN8#PBF | 75 µV offset, 0.2 µV/°C drift, 0.4 V/µs slew rate, 20 mA output drive | Slower response limits use in >1 kHz AC-coupled sensor paths | Valid alternative where bandwidth requirements are ≤1 kHz and PCB layout allows DIP-8 |
Compared with OP90GP, OPA277PA offers superior drift control for metrology-grade systems, while LT1013DN8#PBF provides identical offset but reduced speed-making OP90GP optimal for medium-bandwidth, low-offset, rail-to-rail output applications requiring DIP-8 compatibility.

FAQ
Is OP90GP still in production?
No, OP90GP is Not Recommended for New Designs due to discontinuation of its wafer fabrication process. Aetrix Electronics maintains legacy inventory for existing designs and supports obsolescence mitigation through verified alternatives and cross-reference guidance.
What is the maximum supply voltage for OP90GP?
The OP90GP supports dual supplies up to ±18 V (36 V total) or single supply up to 36 V. Operation beyond these limits risks permanent damage. The device is fully specified from ±1.5 V to ±18 V, with guaranteed performance across that range.
Does OP90GP have rail-to-rail input capability?
No, OP90GP features rail-to-rail output only. Its input common-mode range extends to within 1.5 V of the negative rail and within 2 V of the positive rail. Full rail-to-rail input would require a CMOS-input architecture not present in this bipolar op-amp.
Can OP90GP drive capacitive loads directly?
OP90GP is not unity-gain stable with capacitive loads exceeding 100 pF. For loads >100 pF, external isolation resistance (≥100 Ω) or feedback capacitor compensation is required to prevent oscillation. This limitation is documented in the OP90GP datasheet Figure 12.
Where can I find the official OP90GP datasheet?
The official OP90GP datasheet (Rev 1, 12/06, document number 19-0668) remains available on the Maxim Integrated website archive and through authorized distributors. Aetrix Electronics provides direct access links and technical summary extracts upon request for OP90GP design support.
