LTC1968CMS8#PBF

Overview

The LTC1968CMS8#PBF is a precision RMS-to-DC converter manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It operates on a single 5V supply and draws 2.3mA of current. The device is housed in an 8-pin MSOP package with surface-mount installation. This component converts AC input signals into a DC voltage proportional to their true RMS value, suitable for power monitoring and signal processing applications requiring high accuracy.

Feature Summary

• Provides true RMS to DC conversion capability
• Operates from a single 5V power supply
• Features low power consumption design

Applications

• Power monitoring systems
• Signal processing circuits
• Audio level measurement

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number including the suffix #PBF to ensure lead-free compliance and correct packaging configuration. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may report limited stock or discontinuation notices. Check RoHS documentation for environmental compliance requirements specific to your manufacturing region before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when precise RMS measurement is required from AC signals using a single supply voltage. Ensure the application environment supports the specified operating temperature range and that the MSOP package footprint fits the PCB layout constraints. Compare against other RMS converters if higher bandwidth or different supply voltages are needed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LTC1968 series of precision analog signal processors. It is designed for applications demanding accurate power measurement and signal analysis. The CMS8 designation indicates the commercial temperature grade and MSOP package type, distinguishing it from industrial variants or other package options within the same functional family.
