Product details
Overview
UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A from Renesas Electronics is a dual operational amplifier optimized for single-supply operation with rail-to-rail output swing down to V− (GND), ±2 mV typical input offset voltage, 100,000 typical large-signal voltage gain, and AEC-Q100 compliance for automotive-grade reliability. It serves as a precision signal conditioning front-end in battery-powered sensor interfaces and low-voltage analog monitoring circuits.
For engineers reviewing the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A datasheet, UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A pinout, UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A application, or UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A equivalent, key selection criteria include its GND-referenced common-mode input range (0 V to V+ − 1.5 V), 1.2 mA typical supply current at +5 V, class-C push-pull output stage enabling low-quiescent-current operation, and TSSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A implements a dual-channel, internally frequency-compensated op-amp architecture with independent input stages referenced to V− (GND) and an output stage utilizing a class-C push-pull configuration biased by a 50 μA constant current source. Its design enables stable operation from +3 V to +30 V single supply or ±1.5 V to ±15 V split supply.
It features output short-circuit protection, 70 dB typical CMRR and SVRR at 25 °C, and maintains functional performance across −40 °C to +125 °C ambient temperature. The device supports both inverting and non-inverting configurations without external level-shifting components due to its V−-to-(V+ − 1.5 V) common-mode input range and GND-level output capability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | +3 V to +30 V (single supply); ±1.5 V to ±15 V (split supply) - enables direct integration into 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V systems without level translation. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±2 mV (typical) - ensures ≤2 mV DC error in precision DC-coupled amplification paths such as thermistor or strain gauge signal conditioning. |
| Large Signal Voltage Gain | 100,000 (typical) - delivers ≥100 dB open-loop gain for high-accuracy closed-loop gain setting with minimal error. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | 0 V to V+ − 1.5 V (typical) - allows direct sensing of signals referenced to ground, eliminating need for input biasing resistors. |
| Output Voltage Swing | 0 V to V+ − 1.5 V (typical, RL = 2 kΩ) - provides near-rail output drive for ADC input buffering with minimal headroom loss. |
| Supply Current per Channel | 1.2 mA (typical, V+ = +5 V) - supports always-on, low-power analog monitoring in battery-operated automotive ECUs and IoT edge nodes. |

Pinout & Package
UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A is housed in an 8-pin plastic TSSOP package (JEITA code P-TSSOP8-0225-0.65, Renesas code PTSP0008JD-A), measuring 3.15 mm × 4.40 mm × 1.20 mm max, with 0.65 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads. This compact surface-mount package supports automated assembly and thermal performance up to 183 °C/W junction-to-ambient resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input (Channel 1) | Accepts differential input signal; referenced to V− (GND); supports common-mode voltages from 0 V to V+ − 1.5 V. |
| 2 | Non-Inverting Input (Channel 1) | Accepts differential input signal; same common-mode range as Pin 1; used for unity-gain buffer or non-inverting amplifier configurations. |
| 3 | Output (Channel 1) | Class-C push-pull output capable of sourcing 20–40 mA and sinking 10–20 mA; swings from GND to V+ − 1.5 V. |
| 4 | V− (Ground) | Power return reference for both channels; must be connected directly to system ground plane for noise immunity and stability. |
| 5 | Non-Inverting Input (Channel 2) | Independent second channel input; identical electrical characteristics and common-mode range as Pin 2. |
| 6 | Inverting Input (Channel 2) | Independent second channel input; identical electrical characteristics and common-mode range as Pin 1. |
| 7 | Output (Channel 2) | Second independent output; shares same output stage architecture and drive capability as Pin 3. |
| 8 | V+ | Positive supply rail; accepts +3 V to +30 V; decoupling capacitor (≥0.1 μF ceramic) required adjacent to this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification | Validated for automotive applications requiring operation from −40 °C to +105 °C case temperature (Grade 2), including engine control and body electronics. |
| GND-referenced input and output | Eliminates need for input bias networks or output level shifters in single-supply systems, reducing BOM count and PCB area. |
| Internal frequency compensation | Ensures unity-gain stability without external compensation components, simplifying design for standard gain configurations (e.g., gain ≥ 1). |
| Output short-circuit protection | Withstands indefinite short to V− (GND); limits fault current to prevent thermal runaway during wiring errors or connector shorts. |
| Low quiescent current | 0.7–1.2 mA total supply current enables use in always-on subsystems where power budget is constrained to <2 mW per channel. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV358IDR | Higher input bias current (1 pA vs. 45 nA typ.), wider supply range (+2.7 V to +5.5 V only), no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Targeted at consumer-grade portable electronics; lacks automotive temperature and reliability validation. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification needs and supply voltage is limited to 3.3 V/5 V systems. |
| TSV912IYDT | Lower input offset voltage (1.5 mV typ.), rail-to-rail input/output, but higher supply current (850 μA/channel) and no short-circuit protection. | Optimized for high-speed, low-noise audio and active filter designs; unsuitable for fault-prone industrial wiring environments. | Select when ultra-low offset and full rail-to-rail swing are mandatory, and output fault conditions are actively managed externally. |
Compared with LMV358IDR and TSV912IYDT, the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A uniquely balances AEC-Q100 compliance, GND-referenced operation, output short-circuit robustness, and sub-1.2 mA quiescent current-making it the preferred choice for automotive and industrial analog signal chains where reliability, simplicity, and low power coexist.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A?
The UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A supports a maximum single-supply voltage of +30 V (V+ to V−) and ±15 V for split-supply operation. Exceeding +30 V or applying reverse polarity risks permanent damage, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 3 of the R03DS0134EJ0100 datasheet. Derating applies above 69 °C ambient per thermal specifications.
Does the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A support true rail-to-rail input operation?
No, the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A does not support rail-to-rail input. Its common-mode input voltage range is specified as 0 V to V+ − 1.5 V (typical), meaning the input cannot safely reach V+ or go below GND. However, it does support GND-referenced inputs and outputs down to V− (GND), making it ideal for single-supply systems where the negative rail is grounded.
Is the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A pin-compatible with other variants in the μPC1251A family?
Yes, the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A shares identical pinout and electrical functionality with other TSSOP-8 variants in the μPC1251A family, including μPC1251AGR and μPC1251AG2 (SOP-8). All variants use the same 8-pin configuration shown on page 2 of R03DS0134EJ0100, enabling direct substitution within the same package footprint.
What thermal derating applies to the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A at elevated temperatures?
The UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (Rth(J-A)) of 183 °C/W and requires derating at −5.5 mW/°C when ambient temperature exceeds 69 °C. This is documented in Note 4 of the Absolute Maximum Ratings section (page 3), and must be applied to maintain safe junction temperature under continuous load conditions.
Can the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A drive a 2 kΩ load across its full output voltage range?
Yes, the UPC1251GR(5)-9LG-E1-A is characterized to deliver an output voltage swing of 0 V to V+ − 1.5 V with a 2 kΩ load to GND (per Electrical Characteristics table, page 4). At V+ = +5 V, this yields a usable range of 0 V to +3.5 V, sufficient for driving mid-scale ADC inputs or interfacing with logic-level comparators.
