Microchip MCP6004 Quad Op-Amp 0.6 V/µs DIP-14

The Microchip MCP6004-I/P is a high-performance, quad-channel operational amplifier engineered for robust general-purpose applications. Designed using advanced CMOS technology, it delivers a consistent 1MHz Gain Bandwidth Product (GBWP) with a typical 90° phase margin for stable operation, maintaining 45° phase margin even with demanding 500pF capacitive loads.

This op-amp operates from a single supply voltage as low as 1.8V up to 5.5V, drawing a remarkably low quiescent current of just 100μA (typical), making it ideal for power-sensitive designs. It features true rail-to-rail input and output swing, with a broad common-mode input voltage range that extends from VDD +300mV down to VSS - 300mV, maximising dynamic range in low-voltage systems.

Available in a through-hole compatible 14-pin DIP package, it is designed for reliability across industrial and extended temperature ranges from -40°C to 125°C. Its key specifications include a slew rate of 0.6V/µs, an input offset voltage of 4.5mV, and an extremely low input bias current of 1pA. This device is also qualified to the AEC-Q100 standard, confirming its suitability for demanding automotive electronics applications.

With its combination of low power consumption, rail-to-rail performance, and wide operating temperature, the MCP6004 provides an excellent, cost-effective amplifier solution for sensor interfaces, battery-powered devices, and active filter circuits.
