MCP6293-E/SN

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The MCP6293-E/SN is a single-channel operational amplifier from the Microchip Technology MCP6291/1R/2/3/4/5 family. It features a typical gain bandwidth product of 10 MHz and a slew rate of 7 V/µs. The device operates on a supply voltage ranging from 2.4V to 6.0V with a typical quiescent current of 1.0 mA per amplifier. It supports rail-to-rail input and output swing, offering an extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C. This specific variant includes a Chip Select (CS) pin for low-power mode control.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Feature Summary

• Features a Chip Select (CS) digital input that places the device into a low-power mode when activated.
• Supports rail-to-rail input and output voltage swings for maximum dynamic range.
• Designed with advanced CMOS process technology for low power consumption and high bandwidth.
• Includes protection against phase reversal when input voltages exceed supply rails.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Applications

• Automotive systems requiring AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification
• Photodiode amplifier circuits
• Analog filter designs
• Portable equipment and battery-powered systems

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify the exact ordering suffix matches the required package type and temperature grade. Confirm the presence of the Chip Select feature if low-power management is critical for the design. Ensure compatibility with the intended supply voltage range and load conditions before finalizing procurement specifications.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when a single op amp with integrated power-down capability is needed. It is suitable for applications requiring wide bandwidth and rail-to-rail performance within a compact SOIC-8 package. Consider the MCP6295 if dual amplification with cascaded outputs and CS functionality is preferred over a single channel.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP629x family of general-purpose operational amplifiers manufactured by Microchip Technology. The family offers various configurations including single, dual, and quad packages. The MCP6293 specifically denotes the single-channel version equipped with the Chip Select feature, distinguishing it from the standard MCP6291.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Replacement Considerations

The MCP6295 serves as a functional substitute in dual-package form factors where cascaded operation and Chip Select are required. Standard single-channel replacements without the CS pin include the MCP6291 or MCP6292, provided power-down functionality is not mandatory.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps FAQ

How does the Chip Select pin affect the MCP6293?

The Chip Select pin acts as a digital input that places the amplifier into a low-power mode. When asserted, it reduces the quiescent current significantly, effectively shutting off the amplifier output.

Does the MCP6293 exhibit phase reversal?

No, the device is designed to prevent phase reversal even when the input pins exceed the supply voltages, ensuring stable operation under such conditions.
