Dual nanopower operational amplifier ideal for cost-optimised sensing applications

Texas Instruments TLV8802 dual nanopower operational amplifier is ideal for cost-optimised sensing applications in wireless and low power wired equipment. The amplifier minimises power consumption in equipment. Typical equipment includes CO detectors, smoke detectors and motion detecting security systems where operational battery life is critical. This device has a carefully designed CMOS input stage enabling very low, Femto-amp bias currents, thereby reducing IBIAS and IOS errors. These errors would otherwise impact sensitive applications like transimpedance amplifier configurations with megaohm feedback resistors, and high source impedance sensing applications. Additionally, built-in EMI protection reduces sensitivity to unwanted RF signals from sources like mobile phones, WiFi, radio transmitters and tag readers.
