ICL7616DCPA

Overview

The ICL7616DCPA is a CMOS operational amplifier manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features a maximum input offset voltage of 3000 uV and a bandwidth of 0.044 MHz. The device operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C and utilizes an 8-pin PDIP package with a lead pitch of 2.54 mm.

Feature Summary

• CMOS architecture for low power consumption
• Low input offset voltage specification
• Through-hole dual in-line packaging

Applications

• Precision analog signal conditioning
• Low-frequency sensor interfaces
• Battery-powered instrumentation circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation, as this component originates from Maxim Integrated prior to its acquisition by Analog Devices. Confirm the specific suffix 'D' indicates the commercial temperature grade and 'CPA' denotes the plastic DIP package style. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints requiring an 8-DIP form factor.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-cost, general-purpose op-amp with moderate precision is required. The CMOS technology offers advantages in power efficiency compared to bipolar counterparts. Consider the limited bandwidth and slew rate when designing for high-speed applications, as these parameters restrict usage to low-frequency scenarios.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ICL7616 series of operational amplifiers. It represents a legacy product line originally developed by Intersil before being integrated into the Maxim portfolio. The device is categorized under linear ICs and serves as a fundamental building block for basic analog circuit designs requiring standard amplification capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include the MAX761C/D or other generic CMOS op-amps with similar pinouts and electrical characteristics. Verify that substitute components match the 8-DIP package dimensions and meet the required offset voltage and bandwidth specifications for the intended application.
