Microchip's new op-amps include mCal, an on-chip calibration circuit that calibrates offset voltages at power up using an internal power-on reset detector, or based upon the state of an external pin. The result is a low initial voltage offset and a means to minimise drift over time and temperature, which are extremely important for applications involving instrumentation and sensor conditioning.
The high bandwidth, low power MCP651/2/5 (MCP65x) op amps provide low bias and quiescent currents, high output drive capability and a rail-to-rail output for better performance across the entire operating voltage range. A frequency bandwidth of 50MHz and a rail-to-rail output drive current of up to 95mA make the MCP65x ideal for even the most demanding applications in consumer, industrial and medical markets. The high output drive current, which enables the MCP65x to drive heavy loads, also results in better performance across a wide range of applications, while the rail-to-rail output provides greater dynamic range – even at lower operating voltages – for more accurate performance across the entire operating voltage range.

The new amplifier range expands Microchip’s CMOS op amp portfolio in to higher-speed applications. Examples include microphone preamplifiers, optical detector circuitry and barcode scanners as well as patient monitoring and ultrasound equipment in the medical market.
