Product details

Programmable gain without the resistor network

The Microchip MCP6S91T-E/SN is a single-channel programmable gain amplifier (PGA) that replaces the traditional op-amp plus external resistor-ladder gain-setting circuit. It integrates an SPI-programmable gain stage with eight selectable gain settings, eliminating the need for precision feedback resistors and reducing board area. The amplifier delivers an 18 MHz -3dB bandwidth and a 22 V/µs slew rate, making it suitable for multiplexed analog inputs, data acquisition front-ends, and sensor signal conditioning where gain must be adjusted dynamically or set per channel. Input bias current is 1 pA typical, which minimizes offset errors when driving high-impedance sensors such as photodiodes or pH probes.

Supply current and output drive

Quiescent supply current is 1 mA typical, which keeps the thermal budget low in densely populated boards. Each channel can source or sink 25 mA, enough to drive a 2 kΩ load to within 100 mV of the rails or to charge a small sampling capacitor in a downstream ADC. Input offset voltage is 400 µV maximum, a figure that matters when the PGA is set to high gain because the offset is multiplied by the gain setting.

For a design that relies on programmable gain in a single 8-SOIC footprint, this part is a stable BOM line without forced-migration risk.

Frequently asked questions

Is the MCP6S91T-E/SN rail-to-rail output?

Yes, the output stage is rail-to-rail. The input common-mode range is not rail-to-rail, so the input signal must stay within the supply rails. The output can swing to within a few millivolts of both VSS and VDD under light loads.

What is the bandwidth of MCP6S91T-E/SN?

The -3dB bandwidth is 18 MHz. This is the small-signal bandwidth at unity gain. At higher gain settings the bandwidth scales down inversely with the gain, per the gain-bandwidth product of the amplifier.

What is an equivalent for MCP6S91T-E/SN?

The closest functional equivalent in the same package is the MCP6V91UT-E/OT, a zero-drift PGA with 10 MHz bandwidth and 9.5 V/µs slew rate. It trades some speed for lower input offset (9 µV typical) and is offered in a smaller SOT-23-5 package. For a general-purpose fixed-gain alternative, the MCP6291T-E/MS provides 10 MHz bandwidth and 7 V/µs slew rate in an MSOP-8, but lacks the programmable gain feature.
