GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The OP281 and OP481 are dual and quad ultralow power, singlesupply amplifiers featuring rail-to-rail outputs. Each operates
from supplies as low as 2.0 V and are specified at +3 V and +5 V
single supply as well as ± 5 V dual supplies.
Fabricated on Analog Devices’ CBCMOS process, the
OP281/OP481 features a precision bipolar input and an output
that swings to within millivolts of the supplies and continues to
sink or source current all the way to the supplies.

NOTE: PIN ORIENTATION IS EQUIVALENT FOR
EACH PACKAGE VARIATION
Applications for these amplifiers include safety monitoring,
portable equipment, battery and power supply control, and
signal conditioning and interfacing for transducers in very low
power systems.
The output’s ability to swing rail-to-rail and not increase supply
current, when the output is driven to a supply voltage, enables
the OP281/OP481 to be used as comparators in very low power
systems. This is enhanced by their fast saturation recovery time.
Propagation delays are 250 ms.
The OP281/OP481 are specified over the extended industrial
temperature range (–40∞C to +85∞C). The OP281 dual amplifier
is available in 8-lead SOIC surface-mount and TSSOP packages.
The OP481 quad amplifier is available in narrow 14-lead SOIC
and TSSOP packages.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the
OP281/OP481 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

APPLICATIONS
Theory of Operation
The OPx81 family of op amps is comprised of extremely low
powered, rail-to-rail output amplifiers, requiring less than 4 mA
of quiescent current per amplifier. Many other competitors’
devices may be advertised as low supply current amplifiers but
draw significantly more current as the outputs of these devices
are driven to a supply rail. The OPx81’s supply current remains
under 4 mA even with the output driven to either supply rail.
Supply currents should meet the specification as long as the
inputs and outputs remain within the range of the power supplies.
Figure 1 shows a simplified schematic of a single channel for the
OPx81. A bipolar differential pair is used in the input stage.
PNP transistors are used to allow the input stage to remain
linear with the common-mode range extending to ground. This
is an important consideration for single-supply applications. The
bipolar front end also contributes less noise than a MOS front
end with only nano-amps of bias currents. The output of the op
amp consists of a pair of CMOS transistors in a common source
configuration. This setup allows the output of the amplifier to
swing to within millivolts of either supply rail. The headroom
required by the output stage is limited by the amount of current
being driven into the load. The lower the output current, the
closer the output can go to either supply rail. TPCs 7, 8, and 9
show the output voltage headroom versus load current. This
behavior is typical of rail-to-rail output amplifiers.
This can be done quite easily by placing a resistor in series with
the input to the device. The size of the resistor should be proportional to the lowest possible input signal excursion and can
be found using the following formula:
R=
VEE - VIN , MIN
0.5 ¥ 10 -3
where:
VEE is the negative power supply for the amplifier.
VIN, MIN is the lowest input voltage excursion expected.
For example, a single channel of the OPx81 is to be used with a
single-supply voltage of +5 V where the input signal could possibly
go as low as –1 V. Because the amplifier is powered from a single
supply, VEE is ground, so the necessary series resistance should
be 2 kW.
Input Offset Voltage
The OPx81 family of op amps was designed for low offset
voltages less than 1 mV.

Input Common-Mode Voltage Range
The OPx81 is rated with an input common-mode voltage range
from VEE to 1 V under VCC. However, the op amp can still operate even with a common-mode voltage that is slightly less than VEE.
Figure 2 shows a single OPx81 channel configured as a difference
amplifier with a single-supply voltage of 3 V. Negative dc voltages
are applied at both input terminals creating a common-mode voltage that is less than ground. A 400 mV p-p input signal is then
applied to the noninverting input. Figure 3 shows the input and
output waves. Notice how the output of the amplifier also drops
slightly negative without distortion.

Input Overvoltage Protection
The input stage to the OPx81 family of op amps consists of a
PNP differential pair. If the base voltage of either of these input
transistors drops to more than 0.6 V below the negative supply,
the input ESD protection diodes will become forward biased,
and large currents will begin to flow. In addition to possibly
damaging the device, this will create a phase reversal effect at
the output. To prevent these effects from happening, the input
current should be limited to less than 0.5 mA.

Capacitive Loading
Window Comparator
Most low supply current amplifiers have difficulty driving
capacitive loads due to the higher currents required from the
output stage for such loads. Higher capacitance at the output
will increase the amount of overshoot and ringing in the amplifier’s
step response and could even affect the stability of the device.
However, through careful design of the output stage and its
high phase margin, the OPx81 family can tolerate some degree of
capacitive loading. Figure 4 shows the step response of a single
channel with a 10 nF capacitor connected at the output. Notice
that the overshoot of the output does not exceed more than 10%
with such a load, even with a supply voltage of only 3 V.
The extremely low power supply current demands of the OPx81
family make it ideal for use in long-life battery-powered applications such as a monitoring system. Figure 6 shows a circuit that
uses the OP281 as a window comparator.

Micropower Reference Voltage Generator
Many single-supply circuits are configured with the circuit biased
to 1/2 of the supply voltage. In these cases, a false ground reference can be created by using a voltage divider buffered by an
amplifier. Figure 5 shows the schematic for such a circuit.
The two 1 MW resistors generate the reference voltage while
drawing only 1.5 mA of current from a 3 V supply. A capacitor
connected from the inverting terminal to the output of the op amp
provides compensation to allow for a bypass capacitor to be
connected at the reference output. This bypass capacitor helps
to establish an ac ground for the reference output. The entire
reference generator draws less than 5 mA from a 3 V supply source.
The threshold limits for the window are set by VH and VL, provided that VH > VL. The output of A1 will stay at the negative
rail, in this case ground, as long as the input voltage is less than
VH. Similarly, the output of A2 will stay at ground as long the
input voltage is higher than VL. As long as VIN remains between
VL and VH, the outputs of both op amps will be 0 V. With no
current flowing in either D1 or D2, the base of Q1 will stay at
ground, putting the transistor in cutoff and forcing VOUT to the
positive supply rail. If the input voltage rises above VH, the
output of A2 stays at ground, but the output of A1 will go to the
positive rail, and D1 will conduct current. This creates a base
voltage that will turn on Q1 and drive VOUT low. The same
condition occurs if VIN falls below VL with A2’s output going
high, and D2 conducting current. Therefore, VOUT will be high
if the input voltage is between VL and VH, and VOUT will be low
if the input voltage moves outside of that range.
The R1 and R2 voltage divider sets the upper window voltage,
and the R3 and R4 voltage divider sets the lower voltage for the
window. For the window comparator to function properly, VH
must be a greater voltage than VL.

Low-Side Current Monitor
In the design of power supply control circuits, a great deal of
design effort is focused on ensuring a pass transistor’s long-term
reliability over a wide range of load current conditions. As a
result, monitoring and limiting device power dissipation is of
prime importance in these designs. Figure 7 shows an example
of a 5 V, single-supply current monitor that can be incorporated
into the design of a voltage regulator with fold-back current
limiting or a high current power supply with crowbar protection.
The design capitalizes on the OPx81’s common-mode range
that extends to ground. Current is monitored in the power supply return path where a 0.1 W shunt resistor, RSENSE, creates a
very small voltage drop. The voltage at the inverting terminal
becomes equal to the voltage at the noninverting terminal through
the feedback of Q1, which is a 2N2222 or equivalent NPN transistor. This makes the voltage drop across R1 equal to the voltage
drop across RSENSE. Therefore, the current through Q1 becomes
directly proportional to the current through RSENSE, and the output
voltage is given by:
Ê R2
ˆ
VOUT = VEE - Á
¥ RSENSE ¥ I L ˜
Ë R1
¯
The voltage drop across R2 increases with IL increasing, so VOUT
decreases with higher supply current being sensed. For the
element values shown, the VOUT transfer characteristic is –2.5 V/A,
decreasing from VEE.

Figure 9. Full-Wave Rectified Signal
Amplifier A1 is used as a voltage follower that will track the input
voltage only when it is greater than 0 V. This provides a half-wave
rectification of the input signal to the noninverting terminal of
amplifier A2. When A1’s output is following the input, the inverting terminal of A2 will also follow the input from the virtual
ground between the inverting and noninverting terminals of A2.
With no potential difference across R1, no current flows through
either R1 or R2, therefore the output of A2 will also follow the input.
Now, when the input voltage goes below 0 V, the noninverting
terminal of A2 becomes 0 V. This makes A2 work as an inverting
amplifier with a gain of 1 and provides a full-wave rectified version
of the input signal. A 2 kW resistor in series with A1’s noninverting
input protects the device when the input signal becomes less
than ground.
Battery-Powered Telephone Headset Amplifier

Figure 10 shows how the OP281 can be used as a two-way
amplifier in a telephone headset. One side of the OP281 can be
used as an amplifier for the microphone, while the other side can
be used to drive the speaker. A typical telephone headset uses a
600 W speaker and an electret microphone that requires a supply
voltage and a biasing resistor.

OP281/OP481
The OP281-A op amp provides about 29 dB of gain for audio
signals coming from the microphone. The gain is set by the
300 kW and 11 kW resistors. The gain bandwidth product of the
amplifier is 95 kHz, which, for the set gain of 28, yields a –3 dB
rolloff at 3.4 kHz. This is acceptable since telephone audio is band
limited for 300 kHz to 3 kHz signals. If higher gain is required
for the microphone, an additional gain stage should be used, as
adding any more gain to the OP281 would limit the audio bandwidth. A 2.2 kW resistor is used to bias the electret microphone.
This resistor value may vary depending on the specifications on
the microphone being used. The output of the microphone is accoupled to the noninverting terminal of the op amp. Two 1 MW
resistors are used to provide the dc offset for single-supply use.
The OP281-B amplifier can provide up to 15 dB of gain for the
headset speaker. Incoming audio signals are ac-coupled to a
10 kW potentiometer that is used to adjust the volume. Again,
two 1 MW resistors provide the dc offset with a 1 mF capacitor
establishing an ac ground for the volume control potentiometer.
Because the OP281 is a rail-to-rail output amplifier, it would have
difficulty driving a 600 W speaker directly. Here, a class AB buffer
is used to isolate the load from the amplifier and also provide
the necessary current drive to the speaker. By placing the buffer
in the feedback loop of the op amp, crossover distortion can be
minimized. Q1 and Q2 should have minimum betas of 100. The
600 W speaker is ac-coupled to the emitters to prevent any quiescent current from flowing in the speaker. The 1 mF coupling
capacitor makes an equivalent high-pass filter cutoff at 265 Hz
with a 600 W load attached. Again, this does not pose a problem,
as it is outside the frequency range for telephone audio signals.
The circuit in Figure 10 draws around 250 mA of current. The
class AB buffer has a quiescent current of 140 mA while roughly
100 mA is drawn by the microphone itself. A CR2032 3 V lithium
battery has a life expectancy of 160 mA hours, which means this
circuit could run continuously for 640 hours on a single battery.
