3 Description

The LPV521 is a single, nanopower, 552nW amplifier

designed for ultra-long-life battery applications. The

operating voltage range of 1.6V to 5.5V coupled with

typically 351nA of supply current make this device

an excellent choice for RFID readers and remote-

sensor nanopower applications. The device has an

input common-mode voltage 0.1V over the rails,

specified TCVOS, and voltage-swing-to-the-rail output

performance. The LPV521 has a carefully designed

CMOS input stage that outperforms competitors with

typically 40fA IBIAS currents. This low input current

significantly reduces IBIAS and IOS errors introduced in

megohm resistance, high-impedance photodiode and

charge sense applications. The LPV521 is a member

of the PowerWise® family, and has an exceptional

power-to-performance ratio.

The wide input common-mode voltage range,

specified 1mV VOS and 3.5µV/°C TCVOS enables

accurate and stable measurement for both high-side

and low-side current sensing.

EMI protection is designed into the device to reduce

sensitivity to unwanted RF signals from cell phones or

other RFID readers.

The LPV521 is offered in 5-pin SC70 and 8-pin PDIP

packages.
