The Microchip Technology Inc. MCP6421/2/4 family of
operational amplifiers operate with a single supply
voltage as low as 1.8V, while drawing low quiescent
current per amplifier (5.5 µA, maximum). This family
also has low-input offset voltage (±1.0 mV, maximum)
and rail-to-rail input and output operation. In addition,
the MCP6421/2/4 family is unity gain stable and has a
gain bandwidth product of 90 kHz (typical). This
combination of features supports battery-powered and
portable applications. The MCP6421/2/4 family has
enhanced EMI protection to minimize any
electromagnetic interference from external sources.
This feature makes it well suited for EMI sensitive
applications such as power lines, radio stations, and
mobile communications, etc.

Test Circuits
The circuit used for most DC and AC tests is shown in
Figure 1-1. This circuit can independently set VCM and
VOUT (see Equation 1-1). Note that VCM is not the
circuit’s Common mode voltage ((VP + VM)/2), and that
VOST includes VOS plus the effects (on the input offset
error, VOST) of the temperature, CMRR, PSRR and
AOL.

Analog Outputs
The output pin is a low-impedance voltage source.
3.2
Analog Inputs
The non-inverting and inverting inputs are highimpedance CMOS inputs with low bias currents.
3.3
Power Supply Pins (VSS, VDD)
The positive power supply (VDD) is 1.8V to 5.5V higher
than the negative power supply (VSS). For normal
operation, the other pins are at voltages between VSS
and VDD.
Typically, these parts are used in a single (positive)
supply configuration. In this case, VSS is connected to
ground and VDD is connected to the supply. VDD will
need bypass capacitors.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The MCP6421/2/4 op amps are manufactured using
Microchip’s state-of-the-art CMOS process. This op
amp is unity gain stable and suitable for a wide range
of general purpose applications.
In some applications, it may be necessary to prevent
excessive voltages from reaching the op amp inputs;
Figure 4-2 shows one approach to protecting these
inputs.

PHASE REVERSAL
The MCP6421/2/4 op amps are designed to prevent
phase reversal, when the input pins exceed the supply
voltages. Figure 2-33 shows the input voltage
exceeding the supply voltage with no phase reversal.
4.1.2
INPUT VOLTAGE LIMITS
In order to prevent damage and/or improper operation
of the amplifier, the circuit must limit the voltages at the
input pins (see Section 1.1, Absolute Maximum
Ratings †).
The Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection on the
inputs can be depicted as shown in Figure 4-1. This
structure was chosen to protect the input transistors
against many, but not all, over-voltage conditions, and
to minimize the input bias current (IB).

Protecting the Analog
A significant amount of current can flow out of the
inputs when the Common mode voltage (VCM) is below
ground (VSS); see Figure 2-35.
4.1.3
INPUT CURRENT LIMITS
In order to prevent damage and/or improper operation
of the amplifier, the circuit must limit the currents into
the input pins (see Section 1.1, Absolute Maximum
Ratings †).
Figure 4-3 shows one approach to protecting these
inputs. The resistors R1 and R2 limit the possible
currents in or out of the input pins (and the ESD diodes,
D1 and D2). The diode currents will go through either
VDD or VSS.
VDD
D1
D2
V1
The input ESD diodes clamp the inputs when they try
to go more than one diode drop below VSS. They also
clamp any voltages that go well above VDD; their
breakdown voltage is high enough to allow normal
operation, but not low enough to protect against slow
over-voltage (beyond VDD) events. Very fast ESD
events that meet the spec are limited so that damage
does not occur.

NORMAL OPERATION
The input stage of the MCP6421/2/4 op amps uses two
differential input stages in parallel. One operates at a
low Common mode input voltage (VCM), while the other
operates at a high VCM. With this topology, the device
operates with a VCM up to 300 mV above VDD and
300 mV below VSS. The input offset voltage is
measured at VCM = VSS – 0.3V and VDD + 0.3V, to
ensure proper operation.

Normalized Load Capacitance; CL/GN (F)
After selecting RISO for your circuit, double-check the
resulting frequency response peaking and step
response overshoot. Modify RISO’s value until the
response is reasonable. Bench evaluation and
simulations with the MCP6421/2/4 SPICE macro
model are very helpful.
Driving large capacitive loads can cause stability
problems for voltage feedback op amps. As the load
capacitance increases, the feedback loop’s phase
margin decreases, and the closed-loop bandwidth is
reduced. This produces gain peaking in the frequency
response, with overshoot and ringing in the step
response. While a unity-gain buffer (G = +1 V/V) is the
most sensitive to the capacitive loads, all gains show
the same general behavior.
4.4
When driving large capacitive loads with the
MCP6421/2/4 op amps (e.g., > 60 pF when
G = +1 V/V), a small series resistor at the output (RISO
in Figure 4-5) improves the feedback loop’s phase margin (stability) by making the output load resistive at
higher frequencies. The bandwidth will be generally
lower than the bandwidth with no capacitance load.

Supply Bypass
The MCP6421/2/4 op amps’ power supply pin (VDD for
single-supply) should have a local bypass capacitor
(i.e., 0.01 µF to 0.1 µF) within 2 mm for good high
frequency performance. It can use a bulk capacitor
(i.e., 1 µF or larger) within 100 mm to provide large,
slow currents. This bulk capacitor can be shared with
other analog parts.
Unused Op Amps
An unused op amp in a quad package (MCP6424)
should be configured as shown in Figure 4-6. These
circuits prevent the output from toggling and causing
crosstalk. Circuit A sets the op amp at its minimum
noise gain. The resistor divider produces any desired
reference voltage within the output voltage range of the
op amp, and the op amp buffers that reference voltage.
Circuit B uses the minimum number of components
and operates as a comparator, but it may draw more
current.

PCB Surface Leakage
4.7
In applications where low input bias current is critical,
Printed Circuit Board (PCB) surface leakage effects
need to be considered. Surface leakage is caused by
humidity, dust or other contamination on the board.
Under low humidity conditions, a typical resistance
between nearby traces is 1012. A 5V difference would
cause 5 pA of current to flow, which is greater than the
MCP6421/2/4 family’s bias current at +25°C (±1 pA,
typical).
The easiest way to reduce surface leakage is to use a
guard ring around sensitive pins (or traces). The guard
ring is biased at the same voltage as the sensitive pin.
An example of this type of layout is shown in
Figure 4-7.
Electromagnetic Interference
Rejection Ratio (EMIRR)
Definitions
The electromagnetic interference (EMI) is the disturbance that affects an electrical circuit due to either electromagnetic induction or electromagnetic radiation
emitted from an external source.
The parameter which describes the EMI robustness of
an op amp is the Electromagnetic Interference
Rejection Ratio (EMIRR). It quantitatively describes the
effect that an RF interfering signal has on op amp
performance. Internal passive filters make EMIRR
better compared with older parts. This means that, with
good PCB layout techniques, your EMC performance
should be better.
EMIRR is defined as:

Non-inverting Gain and Unity-Gain Buffer:
a) Connect the non-inverting pin (VIN+) to the

PCB surface.
b) Connect the guard ring to the inverting input
pin (VIN–). This biases the guard ring to the
Common mode input voltage.
Inverting Gain and Transimpedance Gain
Amplifiers (convert current to voltage, such as
photo detectors):
a) Connect the guard ring to the non-inverting
input pin (VIN+). This biases the guard ring
to the same reference voltage as the op
amp (e.g., VDD/2 or ground).
b) Connect the inverting pin (VIN–) to the input
with a wire that does not touch the PCB
surface.

Application Circuits
CARBON MONOXIDE GAS SENSOR
A carbon monoxide (CO) gas detector is a device
which detects the presence of carbon monoxide gas
level. Usually this is battery powered and transmits
audible and visible warnings.
The sensor responds to CO gas by reducing its
resistance proportionaly to the amount of CO present in
the air exposed to the internal element. On the sensor
module, this variable is part of a voltage divider formed
by the internal element and potentiometer R1. The
output of this voltage divider is fed into the noninverting inputs of the MCP6421 op amp. The device is
configured as a buffer with unity gain and is used to
provide a non-loaded test point for sensor sensitivity.
Because this sensor can be corrupted by parasitic electromagnetic signals, the MCP6421 op amp can be
used for conditioning this sensor.

The MCP6421/2/4 op amps are well suited for conditioning sensor signals in battery-powered applications.
Many sensors are configured as Wheatstone bridges.
Strain gauges and pressure sensors are two common
examples.
Figure 4-9 shows a strain gauge amplifier, using the
MCP6421/2/4 Enhanced EMI protection device. The
difference amplifier with EMI robustness op amp is
used to amplify the signal from the Wheatstone bridge.
The two op amps, configured as buffers and connected
at outputs of pressure sensors, prevents resistive
loading of the bridge by resistor R1 and R2. Resistors
R1,R2 and R3,R5 need to be chosen with very low
tolerance to match the CMRR.

The MCP6421/2/4 op amps’ Common Mode Input
Range, which goes 0.3V beyond both supply rails,
supports their use in high-side and low-side battery
current sensing applications. The low quiescent current
helps prolong battery life, and the rail-to-rail output supports detection of low currents.
Figure 4-10 shows a high side battery current sensor
circuit. The 10 resistor is sized to minimize power
losses. The battery current (IDD) through the 10
resistor causes its top terminal to be more negative
than the bottom terminal. This keeps the Common
mode input voltage of the op amp below VDD, which is
within its allowed range. The output of the op amp will
also be below VDD, within its Maximum Output Voltage
Swing specification.

tool. Bench testing is a very important part of any
design and cannot be replaced with simulations. Also,
simulation results using this macro model need to be
validated by comparing them to the data sheet
specifications and characteristic curves.
The following Microchip Analog Design Note and
Application Notes are available on the Microchip web
site at www.microchip.com/appnotes, and are
recommended as supplemental reference resources.

FilterLab® Software
Microchip’s FilterLab software is an innovative software
tool that simplifies analog active filter design using op
amps. Available at no cost from the Microchip web site
at www.microchip.com/filterlab, the FilterLab design
tool provides full schematic diagrams of the filter circuit
with component values. It also outputs the filter circuit
in SPICE format, which can be used with the macro
model to simulate the actual filter performance.
5.3
Microchip Advanced Part Selector
(MAPS)
MAPS is a software tool that helps semiconductor
professionals efficiently identify the Microchip devices
that fit a particular design requirement. Available at no
cost
from
the
Microchip
website
at
www.microchip.com/ maps, the MAPS is an overall
selection tool for Microchip’s product portfolio that
includes Analog, Memory, MCUs and DSCs. Using this
tool, you can define a filter to sort features for a
parametric search of devices and export side-by-side
technical comparison reports. Helpful links are also
provided for data sheets, purchase and sampling of
Microchip parts.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
