Design Notes
The OP27AJ/883C operates from dual supplies of ±4V to ±18V. For optimal performance, use low-impedance power sources and bypass each supply pin with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed close to the device. Additionally, a 10 µF tantalum capacitor on each supply line can help filter low-frequency noise. Ensure the supply voltages are within the absolute maximum ratings to avoid damage.
For the TO-99-8 package, ensure proper lead forming and insertion to avoid mechanical stress. Use a socket if repeated removal is expected. On the PCB, provide adequate copper area for heat dissipation if operating at high supply voltages. Keep input traces short and shielded to minimize noise pickup. Ground the metal can if connected to the substrate for shielding.
The OP27AJ/883C has an input bias current of ±40 nA, which can cause offset errors in high-impedance circuits. Use balancing resistors equal to the parallel combination of source resistances to cancel bias current effects. Also, the device is not suitable for single-supply operation without proper level shifting. Avoid exceeding the common-mode input range, which is typically from V- + 2V to V+ - 2V.
Compliance Information
The OP27AJ/883C is a military-grade part and is not RoHS compliant due to lead in the hermetic package. It is not AEC-Q100 qualified as it is not intended for automotive use.
