MCP6G01T-E/OT

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Overview

The MCP6G01T-E/OT is a single-channel Selectable Gain Amplifier (SGA) from Microchip Technology, housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 package. It supports three fixed non-inverting gains of +1 V/V, +10 V/V, and +50 V/V, selected via the GSEL pin. The device operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 1.8V to 5.5V with a typical quiescent current of 110 µA. It features rail-to-rail input and output capabilities, an extended operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C, and low gain error specifications.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Feature Summary

• Configurable for three discrete non-inverting gain levels: +1, +10, and +50 V/V through a dedicated digital control pin.
• Provides rail-to-rail input and output signal swing capability across the entire supply voltage range.
• Optimized for low power consumption with a typical quiescent current of 110 µA per amplifier.
• Ensures high precision with low DC gain error and low input offset voltage characteristics.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix /OT corresponds to the tape and reel packaging format required for automated assembly processes. Confirm the 'E' designation indicates compliance with RoHS standards and absence of halogenated substances. Ensure the component matches the specific Microchip Technology manufacturer identification to avoid counterfeit parts.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-supply application requires flexible gain adjustment without external resistors. It is suitable for systems needing rail-to-rail signal handling and low power operation. Consider the bandwidth limitations at higher gain settings and verify compatibility with the system's digital logic levels for the GSEL control interface.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP6G01/1R/1U/2/3/4 family of analog selectable gain amplifiers. While other variants offer dual or quad channels or different package types like SOIC and MSOP, the MCP6G01T-E/OT specifically provides a single channel in a compact SOT-23 form factor optimized for space-constrained portable electronics.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps Replacement Considerations

Direct functional substitutes within the same family include MCP6G01R-E/OT and MCP6G01U-E/OT, which share identical electrical characteristics but differ in physical package dimensions.

Instrumentation, Op Amps, Buffer Amps FAQ

How is the gain selection controlled?

Gain selection is managed via the GSEL pin, which acts as a tri-level input. A low voltage selects +10 V/V, mid-supply selects +1 V/V, and a high voltage selects +50 V/V.

Does the device support shutdown mode?

No, the MCP6G01T-E/OT does not have a Chip Select (CS) pin for shutdown. This feature is only available on the MCP6G03 variant within the same family.
