DALLAS, Nov. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ:TXN) today introduced the industry's first precision nanopower operational amplifiers (op amps). The LPV811 and LPV812 consume quiescent current as low as 320 nA and are part of a family of four new ultra-low-power op amps. With up to 60 percent lower power consumption than competitive precision op amps and offset voltage as low as 300 µV, the new family of op amps extends battery and sensor life for applications such as building automation, wired and wireless sensor nodes, and wearables. For more information about the family or to order samples, see www.ti.com/nanopower-pr.
Key features and benefits of the LPV811 family
In addition, the LPV811 family of amplifiers can drive the ADS7042 successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter, helping to deliver an ultra-low-power analog front end.
To see a demonstration of the LPV811 precision nanopower op amp family and learn about other TI industrial and automotive innovations, visit Booth 219 in Hall A4 at the electronica Trade Fair in Munich, now through Nov. 11.
Tools and support to jump-start design
The Low Power Carbon Monoxide Sensor with 10+ Year Coin Cell Battery Life reference design demonstrates how the LPV811 nanopower op amp and the CC2650 SimpleLink™ multi-standard wireless microcontroller (MCU) reduce power consumption and extend the battery life of carbon monoxide gas detectors to as long as 10 years and extend their sensing range up to 1,000 parts per million. Designers also have access to a full suite of online support resources, including a complete library of TI Designs and SPICE models.
