FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®1052 and LTC7652 are low noise zero-drift op
amps manufactured using Linear Technology’s enhanced
LTCMOSTM silicon gate process. Chopper-stabilization
constantlycorrectsoffsetvoltageerrors.Bothinitialoffset
and changes in the offset due to time, temperature and
common mode voltage are corrected. This, coupled with
picoampere input currents, gives these amplifiers
unmatched performance.
■
Guaranteed Max Offset: 5µV
■
Guaranteed Max Offset Drift: 0.05µV/°C
■
Typ Offset Drift: 0.01µV/°C
■
Excellent Long Term Stability: 100nV/√Month
■
Guaranteed Max Input Bias Current: 30pA
■
Over Operating Temperature Range:
Guaranteed Min Gain: 120dB
Guaranteed Min CMRR: 120dB
Guaranteed Min PSRR: 120dB
Low frequency (1/f) noise is also improved by the
chopping technique. Instead of increasing continuously
ata3dB/octaverate, theinternalchoppingcausesnoiseto
decrease at low frequencies.
■
Single Supply Operation: 4.75V to 16V
(Input Voltage Range Extends to Ground)
External Capacitors can be Returned to V– with No
■
Noise Degradation
The chopper circuitry is entirely internal and completely
transparent to the user. Only two external capacitors
are required to alternately sample-and-hold the offset
correction voltage and the amplified input signal. Control
circuitry is brought out on the 14-pin and 16-pin versions
to allow the sampling of the LTC1052 to be synchronized
with an external frequency source.
