7.1 Overview

The OPA187, OPA2187, and OPA4187 (OPAx187) operational amplifiers combine precision offset and drift with excellent overall performance, making these devices an an excellent choice for many precision applications. The precision offset drift of only 0.001 µV/°C provides stability over the entire temperature range. In addition, these devices offer excellent overall performance with high CMRR, PSRR, and AOL. As with all amplifiers, applications with noisy or high-impedance power supplies require decoupling capacitors close to the device pins. In most cases, 0.1-µF capacitors are adequate.

The OPAx187 is part of a family of zero-drift, low-power, rail-to-rail output operational amplifiers. These devices operate from 4.5 V to 36 V, are unity-gain stable, and are designed for a wide range of general-purpose applications. The zero-drift architecture provides ultra-low input offset voltage, and near-zero input offset voltage drift over temperature and time. This choice of architecture also offers outstanding ac performance, such as ultra-low broadband noise and zero flicker noise.
