LT1124/LT1125
Dual/Quad Low Noise,
High Speed Precision Op Amps
DESCRIPTIO
The LT
®
1124 dual and LT1125 quad are high performance
op amps that offer higher gain, slew rate and bandwidth
than the industry standard OP-27 and competing OP-270/
OP-470 op amps. In addition, the LT1124/LT1125 have
lower I
B
and I
OS
than the OP-27; lower V
OS
and noise
than the OP-270/OP-470.
In the design, processing and testing of the device, par-
ticular attention has been paid to the optimization of the
entire distribution of several key parameters. Slew rate,
gain bandwidth and 1kHz noise are 100% tested for each
individual amplifier. Consequently, the specifications of
even the lowest cost grades (the LT1124C and the
LT1125C) have been spectacularly improved compared
to equivalent grades of competing amplifiers.
Power consumption of the LT1124 is one half of two
OP-27s. Low power and high performance in an 8-pin SO
package make the LT1124 a first choice for surface mounted
systems and where board space is restricted.
For a decompensated version of these devices, with three
times higher slew rate and bandwidth, please see the
LT1126/LT1127 data sheet.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
Typical parameters are defined as the 60% yield of parameter
distributions of individual amplifiers; i.e., out of 100 LT1125s (or 100
LT1124s) typically 240 op amps (or 120) will be better than the indicated
specification.
Note 3:
This parameter is 100% tested for each individual amplifier.
Note 4:
This parameter is sample tested only.
Note 5:
This parameter is not 100% tested.
Note 6:
The inputs are protected by back-to-back diodes. Current limiting
resistors are not used in order to achieve low noise. If differential input
voltage exceeds
±1.4V,
the input current should be limited to 25mA.
Note 7:
Slew rate is measured in A
V
= –1; input signal is
±7.5V,
output
measured at
±2.5V.
Note 8:
0.1Hz to 10Hz noise can be inferred from the 10Hz noise voltage
density test. See the test circuit and frequency response curve for 0.1Hz to
10Hz tester in the Applications Information section of the LT1007 or
LT1028 data sheets.
Note 9:
This parameter is guaranteed but not tested.
Note 10:
The LT1124C/LT1125C and LT1124AC/LT1125AC are guaranteed
to meet specified performance from 0°C to 70°C and are designed,
characterized and expected to meet these extended temperature limits, but
are not tested at –40°C and 85°C. The LT1124AI and LT1124I are
guaranteed to meet the extended temperature limits.
