Zero-drift precision in a tiny SC-70-5
The Microchip MCP6V16UT-E/LTY is a single-channel zero-drift operational amplifier that auto-corrects its input offset voltage over temperature and time, holding it to 25 µV typical without external trimming. It draws only 7.5 µA of supply current, making it a strong candidate for battery-powered sensor interfaces, portable instrumentation, and loop-powered transmitters where every microamp counts. The rail-to-rail output stage swings within millivolts of both supply rails, preserving dynamic range in low-voltage systems down to 1.6 V.
Package and mounting
The 80 kHz gain-bandwidth product suits DC-precision applications like thermocouple conditioning or battery monitoring. The 5 pA input bias current lets you connect high-impedance sources like pH probes or photodiode transimpedance stages without adding a buffer, simplifying the front-end bill of materials. Output drive is rated 17 mA per channel.
Package and handling on site
Housed in a 5-lead SC-70-5 (also known as SOT-353). Surface-mount only, no through-hole option. If you are swapping this in the field, bring a hot-air station or a fine-tip iron and a steady hand; the orientation mark is pin 1, which is clearly indicated on the package top.
