FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LT®1677 features the lowest noise performance avail-
able for a rail-to-rail operational amplifier: 3.2nV/√Hz
wideband noise, 1/f corner frequency of 13Hz and 70nV
peak-to-peak 0.1Hz to 10Hz noise. Low noise is combined
with outstanding precision: 20µV offset voltage and
0.2µV/°C drift, 130dB common mode and power supply
rejection and 7.2MHz gain bandwidth product. The com-
mon mode range exceeds the power supply by 100mV.

Rail-to-Rail Input and Output
100% Tested Low Voltage Noise:
■
3.2nV/√Hz Typ at 1kHz
4.5nV/√Hz Max at 1kHz
■
Offset Voltage: 60µV Max
■
Low VOS Drift: 0.2µV/°C Typ
■
Low Input Bias Current: 20nA Max
■
Wide Supply Range: 3V to ±15V
■
High AVOL: 4V/µV Min, RL = 1k
The voltage gain of the LT1677 is extremely high, especially
with a single supply: 20 million driving a 1k load.
■
High CMRR: 109dB Min
High PSRR: 108dB Min
■
In the design, processing and testing of the device, particular
attention has been paid to the optimization of the entire
distribution of several key parameters. Consequently, the
specifications of even the lowest cost grade have been
spectacularly improved compared to competing rail-to-rail
amplifiers.
■
Gain Bandwidth Product: 7.2MHz
Slew Rate: 2.5V/µs
Operating Temperature Range: –40°C to 85°C
