5μV offset op amp consumes only 1.3μA

LTC2063 from Analog Devices draws just 1.3μA (typ, 2μA max) from a 1.8V supply and achieves 5μV maximum input offset at 25°C, with maximum drift of 0.06μV/°C from -40°C to 125°C and 4.8μVp-p 0-10Hz integrated noise.

Industrial uses are expected, in wireless sensor nodes and mesh networks. 

Maximum input bias current is 15pA at 25°C (100pA -40°C to 125°C) allowing high value feedback resistors to keep power down, and allowing connection to high-impedance sensors. 

Both inputs and output are rail-to-rail for wide dynamic range and to simplify single rail operation. 

LTC2063 mesh network“An integrated EMI filter provides 114dB electromagnetic interference rejection at 1.8GHz,” said Analog. “With low 1/f noise inherent to its zero-drift architecture the LTC2063 is well suited for amplifying and conditioning low frequency sensor signals in high temperature industrial and automotive systems as well as portable and wireless sensor network applications.” 

It is available in SOT-23 or SC70, with the SC70 version including a shut-down pin, which cuts consumption to 90nA. 

LTC2063 app circuit “This enables ultra-low power duty cycled sensor applications, for example, a precision low duty cycle oxygen sensor circuit (pictured, with charge graph below) in the data sheet consumes less than 200nA average.” Adding that this is <400nW. 

LTC2063 appThe firm has put some time in to minimise power-up ‘surges’, with a cold switch-on consuming <1.2µA for 1.7ms and enable when the shut-down pin is released using 1.4µA for 500µs. “While some amplifiers exhibit a large start-up current that far exceeds average power consumption, the LTC2063 maintains low current draw even during start-up.” 

“LTC2063 is well suited for amplifying and conditioning low frequency sensor signals in high temperature industrial and automotive systems as well as medical, portable, energy harvesting and wireless sensor network applications,” said Analog. 

The chip is used alongside an LTP5901-IPM SmartMesh IP module, in the DC2369A wireless current sense reference board which is includes an isolated floating current sense and operates for years on small batteries when reporting at 1Hz. 

In the link just above, the LTC2063 is referred to as a ‘chopper amplifier’ while the also ‘zero-drift’ branded LTC2050 is an auto-zero amplifier. Exactly how the 2063 works is not yet revealed. The data sheet says: “Zero-drift amplifiers like the LTC2063 achieve low input offset voltage and 1/f noise by heterodyning DC and flicker noise to higher frequencies”, while goign on to say: “In early zero-drift amplifiers, this process resulted in idle tones at the self-calibration frequency, often referred to as the chopping frequency. These artifacts made early zero-drift amplifiers difficult to use. The advanced circuit techniques used by the LTC2063 suppress these spurious artifacts, allowing for trouble-free use.”
