6.3 Feature Description

The OPAx486 operational amplifiers use a proprietary, periodic autocalibration technique to provide extremely low input offset voltage and input offset voltage drift over time and temperature. The devices have several integrated features to help maintain a high level of precision through a variety of applications. These include a phase-reversal protection, electrical overstress protection, and MUX-friendly inputs.

Several design techniques and considerations to maintain the specified performance of the OPAx486 are detailed in the Optimizing Chopper Amplifier Accuracy and Op Amp Offset Voltage and Bias Current Limitations application notes.
