FEATURES DESCRIPTIO
■ 17µA Max Supply Current per Amplifier The LT ®1178 is a micropower dual op amp in the standard
■ 70µV Max Offset Voltage 8-pin configuration; the LT1179 is a micropower quad op
■ 250pA Max Offset Current amp offered in the standard 14-pin packages. Both
■ 5nA Max Input Bias Current devices are optimized for single supply operation at 5V.
■ 0.9µVP-P 0.1Hz to 10Hz Voltage Noise Specifications are also provided at ±15V supplies.
■ 1.5pAP-P 0.1Hz to 10Hz Current Noise The extremely low supply current is combined with true
■ 0.5µV/°C Offset Voltage Drift precision specifications: offset voltage is 30µV, offset
■ 85kHz Gain-Bandwidth Product current is 50pA. Both offset parameters have low drift with
■ 0.04V/µs Slew Rate temperature. The 1.5pAp-p current noise and picoampere
■ Single Supply Operation: offset current permit the use of megaohm level source
Input Voltage Range Includes Ground resistors without introducing serious errors. Voltage noise,
Output Swings to Ground While Sinking Current at 0.9µVp-p, is remarkably low considering the low
No Pull Down Resistors are Needed supply current.
■ Output Sources and Sinks 5mA Load Current
Both the LT1178 and LT1179 can be operated from a
U single supply (as low as one lithium cell or two NiCd
APPLICATIO S batteries). The input range goes below ground. The
■ Battery or Solar Powered Systems all-NPN output stage swings to within a few millivolts of
Portable Instrumentation ground while sinking current—no power consuming pull
Remote Sensor Amplifier down resistors are needed.
Satellite Circuitry For applications where three times higher supply
■ Micropower Sample-and-Hold current is acceptable, the micropower LT1077 single,
■ Thermocouple Amplifier LT1078 dual and LT1079 quad are recommended. The

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: Typical parameters are defined as the 60% yield of parameter
distributions of individual amplifiers; (i.e., out of 100 LT1179s, or 100
LT1178s, typically 240 op amps, or 120, will be better than the indicated
specification).
Note 3: This parameter is tested on a sample basis only. All noise
parameters are tested with VS = ±2.5, VO = 0V.
Note 4: This parameter is guaranteed by design and is not tested.
Note 5: Power supply rejection ratio is measured at the minimum supply
voltage. The op amps actually work at 1.7V supply but with a typical offset
skew of –300µV.
Note 6: This parameter is not 100% tested.
Note 7: During testing at –40°C, the 5V power supply turn on-time is less
than 0.5 seconds.
