LM208A Description

The LM108/LM108A series are precision operational amplifiers having specifications about a factor of ten better than FET amplifiers over their operating temperature range. In addition to low input currents, these devices have extremely low offset voltage, making it possible to eliminate offset adjustments, in most cases, and obtain performance approaching chopper stabilized amplifiers.

The devices operate with supply voltages from ±2V to ±18V and have sufficient supply rejection to use unregulated supplies. Although the circuit is interchangeable with and uses the same compensation as the LM101A, an alternate compensation scheme can be used to make it particularly insensitive to power supply noise and to make supply bypass capacitors unnecessary.

The low current error of the LM108A series makes possible many designs that are not practical with conventional amplifiers. In fact, it operates from 10 M Ohm source resistances, introducing less error than devices like the 709 with 10 k Ohm sources. Integrators with drifts less than 500 µV/sec and analog time delays in excess of one hour can be made using capacitors no larger than 1 µF.

The LM208A is identical to the LM108A, except that the LM208A has its performance guaranteed over a -25°C to +85°C temperature range, instead of -55°C to +125°C. The LM308A devices have slightly-relaxed specifications and performances over a 0°C to +70°C temperature range.
