Overview

The MCP6004-I/SL is a quad, general-purpose operational amplifier designed for low-power applications. It features rail-to-rail input and output operation across a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 6.0V, making it suitable for battery-powered systems.

Why Choose This Part

The primary advantage is the combination of a low 1.8V minimum supply voltage and a very low input bias current of 1 pA. It remains stable with capacitive loads up to 500 pF, ensuring robust performance in varied PCB environments.

Applications

Battery-Powered Instrumentation
Utilizes the 100uA per channel quiescent current to extend battery life in portable sensing equipment.
Photodiode Pre-amplifiers
The extremely low 1 pA input bias current minimizes error in high-impedance sensor interfaces.
Active Filters
The 1 MHz Gain Bandwidth Product and 90-degree phase margin provide stable performance in low-frequency filtering applications.
Analog Signal Conditioning
Provides rail-to-rail swing for maximum dynamic range in 1.8V or 3.3V microcontroller-based ADC systems.
