MCP6272T-E/MS

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The MCP6272T-E/MS is a dual-channel operational amplifier manufactured by Microchip Technology in an 8-MSOP package. It features a typical gain bandwidth product of 2 MHz and a quiescent supply current of 170 µA per amplifier. The device operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.0V to 6.0V. Key electrical specifications include a maximum input offset voltage of 3 mV, a slew rate of 0.9 V/µs, and an output short-circuit current of ±25 mA. It supports rail-to-rail input and output swing and functions within an extended temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'E' corresponds to the extended temperature grade (-40°C to +125°C) as defined in the datasheet. Confirm the 'MS' designation matches the required 8-MSOP surface-mount package dimensions. Ensure the 'T' indicates tape and reel packaging if automated assembly is intended. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number MCP6272T-E/MS with official Microchip documentation to validate revision levels.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-channel configuration is required alongside low power constraints. The 2 MHz bandwidth suits general-purpose signal conditioning where moderate speed is sufficient. Consider the rail-to-rail performance for single-supply systems operating near ground or the positive rail. Verify that the 170 µA current draw aligns with battery life requirements compared to lower-power alternatives like the MCP6422.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP6271/1R/2/3/4/5 family of operational amplifiers designed for cost-effective, low-power applications. The family utilizes Microchip's advanced CMOS process to deliver wide bandwidth relative to current consumption. While the MCP6272 provides two independent channels, other variants in the series offer single (MCP6271), quad (MCP6274), or chip-select enabled configurations (MCP6273, MCP6275).
