6.1 Overview

The OPA4H838-SEP zero-drift amplifier is engineered with the unique combination of a proprietary precision auto-calibration technique paired with a low-noise, low-ripple, input charge pump. These offers an ultra-low input offset voltage and drift and achieves excellent input and output dynamic linearity. The OPA4H838-SEP operates from 2.5V to 5.5V, is unity-gain stable, and is designed for a wide range of general-purpose and precision applications. The integrated, low-noise charge pump allows true rail-to-rail input common-mode operation without distortion associated with complementary rail-to-rail input topologies (input crossover distortion). The OPA4H838-SEP strengths also include a 10MHz bandwidth, 7 nV/√Hz noise spectral density, and no 1/f noise, making the OPA4H838-SEP an excellent choice for interfacing with sensor modules and buffering high-fidelity, digital-to-analog converters (DACs).
