What this dual op-amp does on your board
The LTC6256IMS#PBF from Linear Technology is a dual-channel general-purpose operational amplifier built for signal conditioning in power-sensitive industrial and portable gear. Each channel draws 65 µA of supply current while delivering a 6.5 MHz gain-bandwidth product and a 1.8 V/µs slew rate, which keeps the loop stable for filtering and buffering up through the low-MHz range.
Package and mounting notes for the BOM
Surface-mount only; the MSOP footprint is standard, but the narrow body means careful solder-paste stencil alignment for consistent fillets. ROHS3 compliant per, so no exemption-based restrictions on your compliance declaration.
If your design lives in a heated control room or lab instrument, the commercial tail of this grade is fine; for a motor-drive panel that sees afternoon sun, the -40°C floor gives you cold-start margin on the amplifier bias.
Lifecycle status — still in production
The official product status is Active per, and the part carries ROHS3 compliance.
