For many configurations though, the chip inputs will function rail-to-rail because of effective attenuation to The LT1996 may be the last op amp you ever have to stock. the +input. The output is truly rail-to-rail, getting to within Because it provides you with several precision matched 40mV of the supply rails. The gain bandwidth product of resistors, you can easily configure it into several different the op amp is about 560kHz. In noise gains of 2 or more, classical gain circuits without adding external compo- it is stable into capacitive loads up to 500pF. In noise gains nents. The several pages of simple circuits in this data below 2, it is stable into capacitive loads up to 100pF. sheet demonstrate just how easy the LT1996 is to use. It can be configured into difference amplifiers, as well as into The Resistors inverting and noninverting single ended amplifiers. The fact that the resistors and op amp are provided together in The resistors internal to the LT1996 are very well matched such a small package will often save you board space and SiChrome based elements protected with barrier metal. reduce complexity for easy probing. Although their absolute tolerance is fairly poor (±30%), their matching is to within 0.05%. This allows the chip to The Op Amp achieve a CMRR of 80dB, and gain errors within 0.05%. The resistor values are (450k/9), (450k/27), (450k/81) The op amp internal to the LT1996 is a precision device and 450k, connected to each of the inputs.
