MCP6409-H/SL

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The MCP6409-H/SL is a quad operational amplifier from the Microchip Technology MCP6401/1R/1U/2/4/6/7/9 family. It features rail-to-rail input and output operation, unity gain stability, and a typical gain bandwidth product of 1 MHz. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 6.0V with a typical quiescent current of 45 µA per amplifier. It supports an extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +150°C (H temp) and is housed in a 14-lead SOIC package.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'H' indicates the extended temperature range (-40°C to +150°C). Confirm the '/SL' designation corresponds to the SOIC-14 package type. Ensure compatibility with single-supply or dual-supply configurations within the 1.8V to 6.0V operating limits specified in the datasheet.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when four independent amplifiers are required in a single package. The H-temperature rating makes it appropriate for automotive or industrial applications where ambient temperatures exceed standard commercial limits. Verify that the 1 MHz bandwidth and 45 µA quiescent current meet the system's power and speed requirements.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP640x series of low-power, CMOS operational amplifiers. The quad configuration (MCP6409) provides four identical op amps, offering space savings compared to using multiple single or dual units. The family shares common electrical characteristics but varies by channel count and package options.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Replacement Considerations

Check for other members of the MCP640x family such as MCP6404 or MCP6407 if fewer channels are acceptable. Verify that alternative quad op amps support the same 1.8V minimum supply voltage and rail-to-rail input/output specifications.
