DESCRIPTIO
100% Tested Low Voltage Noise: 6nV/√Hz Max
A Grade 100% Temperature Tested
Voltage Gain: 1.2 Million Min
Offset Voltage Over Temp: 800µV Max
Gain-Bandwidth Product: 5.6MHz Typ
Guaranteed Specifications with
±5V
Supplies
The LT
®
1792 achieves a new standard of excellence in
noise performance for a JFET op amp. The 4.2nV/√Hz
voltage noise combined with low current noise and
picoampere bias currents make the LT1792 an ideal choice
for amplifying low level signals from high impedance
capacitive transducers.
The LT1792 is unconditionally stable for gains of 1 or more,
even with load capacitances up to 1000pF. Other key
features are 600µV V
OS
and a voltage gain of over 4 million.
Each individual amplifier is 100% tested for voltage noise,
slew rate and gain bandwidth.
The design of the LT1792 has been optimized to achieve
true precision performance with an industry standard
pinout in the SO-8 package. Specifications are also pro-
vided for
±5V
supplies.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the
life of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
Typical parameters are defined as the 60% yield of parameter
distributions of individual amplifiers.
Note 3:
Warmed-up I
B
and I
OS
readings are extrapolated to a chip
temperature of 32°C from 25°C measurements and 32°C characterization
data.
Note 4:
Current noise is calculated from the formula:
i
n
= (2qI
B
)
1/2
where q = 1.6 • 10
–19
coulomb. The noise of source resistors up to 200M
swamps the contribution of current noise.
Note 5:
Input voltage range functionality is assured by testing offset
voltage at the input voltage range limits to a maximum of 2.3mV
(A grade), to 2.8mV (C grade).
Note 6:
This parameter is not 100% tested.
Note 7:
Slew rate is measured in A
V
= – 1; input signal is
±7.5V,
output
measured at
±2.5V.
Note 8:
The LT1792AC and LT1792C are guaranteed to meet specified
performance from 0°C to 70°C and are designed, characterized and
expected to meet these extended temperature limits, but are not tested at
– 40°C and 85°C. The LT1792I is guaranteed to meet the extended
temperature limits. The LT1792AC and LT1792AI grade are 100%
temperature tested for the specified temperature range.
Note 9:
The LT1792 is measured in an automated tester in less than one
second after application of power. Depending on the package used,
power dissipation, heat sinking, and air flow conditions, the fully
warmed-up chip temperature can be 10°C to 50°C higher than the
ambient temperature.
