Microchip Technology Inc. has launched three new families of low-power, general-purpose operational amplifiers (op amps)–the MCP6H7X/8X/9X–that expand the range of the company's op amps to 12V supply ...

Their low power consumption is said to make them ideal for battery-powered applications. The OPA344 is unity-gain stable and provides a 1-MHz gain bandwidth and a slew rate of 0.8 V/µs.

With high Common Mode Rejection Ratio, high Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR), unity-gain stable and rail-to-rail out, the new MCP6H7X/8X/9X op amps are ideal for applications that operate in ...

Several manufacturers have introduced op amps in the ultra-low power category, which consume less than one micro-amp. An example is the LPV801, which uses only 450 nano-amps.

The MAX9943 (single) and MAX9944 (dual) operate from a wide 6- to 38-V supply and consume 550 µA quiescent current per amplifier to minimize power consumption. They also offer 100-µV (maximum ...

The high-voltage, high-speed PA78 precision IC linear-power op amp has a quiescent current of less than 1 mA. A wide supply voltage provides 10 to 350V and split supplies of ±10 to ±175V. The device ...

[Robo] over at Tiny Transistor Labs has a fascinating look at what’s inside these modern, ultra low-power devices that consume absolutely minuscule amounts of current. Crank up the magnificat… ...

The low operating current of STMicroelectronics’ TSU111 nano-power op amp is on par with the leakage current of some low-cost capacitors, and would take over 25 years to discharge a 220mAh CR2032 cell ...

Achieving an optimal balance between high performance and power consumption in mobile-device designs is a tricky task, especially when it comes to operational amplifiers.
