MCP6024-E/P

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The MCP6024-E/P is a quad operational amplifier from Microchip Technology, housed in a 14-lead PDIP package. It features rail-to-rail input and output capabilities with a typical gain bandwidth product of 10 MHz and a slew rate of 7 V/µs. The device operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.5V to 5.5V, drawing a typical quiescent current of 1 mA per amplifier. Extended temperature parts specify a maximum input offset voltage of ±250 µV at +25°C and ±2.5 mV across the -40°C to +125°C range. It offers low noise density of 8.7 nV/√Hz and unity-gain stability.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Feature Summary

• Multi-pole active filters
• Audio processing circuits
• DAC buffer stages
• Medical instrumentation

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'E' indicates extended temperature rating (-40°C to +125°C) and 'P' denotes the 14-lead PDIP package. Confirm that the datasheet DS20001685E applies to this variant. Ensure the application environment does not exceed absolute maximum ratings, particularly regarding input overvoltage protection and thermal dissipation limits for through-hole mounting.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when four independent amplifiers are required in a single package. The extended temperature grade is necessary for environments exceeding +85°C. Consider the 14-pin PDIP footprint for prototyping or applications requiring through-hole assembly. Verify that the 10 MHz bandwidth meets the signal frequency requirements and that the 30 mA short-circuit current capability is sufficient for the load conditions.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP6021/1R/2/3/4 family of rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifiers. While the MCP6021, MCP6022, and MCP6023 offer single, dual, and triple configurations respectively, the MCP6024 provides four channels. The family shares common electrical characteristics such as 10 MHz bandwidth and low noise, differing primarily in channel count and pinout compatibility within their respective package types.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same package include other MCP6024 variants like MCP6024-I/P (Industrial Temperature). Cross-family replacements may require schematic review due to potential differences in offset voltage, bias current, or package dimensions.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps FAQ

Does the MCP6024-E/P have a Chip Select pin?

No, the Chip Select (CS) pin is a feature exclusive to the MCP6023 model within this family. The MCP6024 does not include this functionality.

What is the maximum input offset voltage for the extended temperature version?

For the extended temperature part (suffix E), the maximum input offset voltage is ±250 µV at +25°C and up to ±2.5 mV across the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.
