For normal operation, the other pins are between VSS and VDD. 3.4 Chip Select (CS) Digital Input This pin (CS) is a CMOS, Schmitt-triggered input that places the MCP6V03 op amps into a low power mode of operation. 3.5 Exposed Thermal Pad (EP) There is an internal connection between the Exposed Thermal Pad (EP) and the VSS pin; they must be connected to the same potential on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). This pad can be connected to a PCB ground plane to provide a larger heat sink. This improves the package thermal resistance (θJA). 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. © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. DS22058C-page 19 MCP6V01/2/3 NOTES: DS22058C-page 20 © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP6V01/2/3 4.0 APPLICATIONS 4.1 The MCP6V01/2/3 family of auto-zeroed op amps is manufactured using Microchip’s state of the art CMOS process. It is designed for low cost, low power and high precision applications. Its low supply voltage, low quiescent current and wide bandwidth makes the MCP6V01/2/3 ideal for battery-powered applications. Overview of Auto-zeroing Operation Figure 4-1 shows a simplified diagram of the MCP6V01/2/3 auto-zeroed op amps. This will be used to explain how the DC voltage errors are reduced in this architecture. VIN+ VIN– Main Amp. CFW NC Output Buffer VOUT VREF Null Input Switches φ1 Null Output Switches Null Amp. CH Null Correct Switches φ2 φ1 φ2 POR Oscillator Digital Control Clock Randomization CS FIGURE 4-1: 4.1.1 Simplified Auto-zeroed Op Amp Functional Diagram. BUILDING BLOCKS The Null Amp. and Main Amp. are designed for high gain and accuracy using a differential topology. They have an auxiliary input (bottom left) used for correcting the offset voltages. Both inputs are added together internally. The capacitors at the auxiliary inputs (CFW and CH) hold the corrected values during normal operation. The Output Buffer is designed to drive external loads at the VOUT pin. It also produces a single ended output voltage (VREF is an internal reference voltage). The internal POR ensures the part starts up in a known good state. It also provides protection against power supply brown out events. The Chip Select input places the op amp in a low power state when it is high. When it goes low, it powers the op amp at its normal level and starts operation properly. The Digital Control circuitry takes care of all of the housekeeping details of the switching operation. It also takes care of Chip Select and POR events. All of these switches are make-before-break in order to minimize glitch-induced errors. They are driven by two clock phases (φ1 and φ2) that select between normal mode and auto-zeroing mode. The clock is derived from an internal R-C oscillator running at a rate of fOSC1 = 300 kHz. The oscillator’s output is divided down to the desired rate. It is also randomized to minimize (spread) undesired clock tones in the output. © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. DS22058C-page 21 MCP6V01/2/3 4.1.2 AUTO-ZEROING ACTION Figure 4-2 shows the connections between amplifiers during the Normal Mode of operation (φ1). The hold capacitor (CH) corrects the Null Amplifier’s input offset. Since the Null Amplifier has very high gain, it dominates the signal seen by the Main Amplifier. This greatly reduces the impact of the Main Amplifier’s input offset voltage on overall performance. Essentially, the Null Amplifier and Main Amplifier behave as a regular op amp with very high gain (AOL) and very low offset voltage (VOS). VIN+ VIN– CFW CH Main Amp. NC Output Buffer VOUT VREF Null Amp. Normal Mode of Operation (φ1); Equivalent Amplifier Diagram. FIGURE 4-2: Figure 4-3 shows the connections between amplifiers during the Auto-zeroing Mode of operation (φ2). The signal goes directly through the Main Amplifier, and the flywheel capacitor (CFW) maintains a constant correction on the Main Amplifier’s offset. Since these corrections happen every 100 µs, or so, we also minimize slow errors, including offset drift with temperature (ΔVOS/ΔTA), 1/f noise, and input offset aging. The Null Amplifier uses its own high open loop gain to drive the voltage across CH to the point where its input offset voltage is almost zero. Because the principal input is connected to VIN+, the auto-zeroing action corrects the offset at the current common mode input voltage (VCM) and supply voltage (VDD). This makes the DC CMRR and PSRR very high also. VIN+ VIN– CFW CH FIGURE 4-3: 4.1.3 Null Amp. NC Output Buffer VOUT VREF Auto-zeroing Mode of Operation (φ2); Equivalent Diagram. INTERMODULATION DISTORTION (IMD) The MCP6V01/2/3 op amps will show intermodulation distortion (IMD), products when an AC signal is present. The signal and clock can be decomposed into sine wave tones (Fourier series components). These tones interact with the auto-zeroing circuitry’s non-linear DS22058C-page 22 Main Amp. response to produce IMD tones at sum and difference frequencies. IMD distortion tones are generated about all of the square wave clock’s harmonics. Clock randomization spreads the IMD tones across the frequency spectrum, but cannot eliminate them. The spread energy is low and is not correlated with the signal of interest, so it is not of concern for most precision applications. See Figure 2-37 and Figure 2-38. © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP6V01/2/3 4.2 Other Functional Blocks 4.2.1 RAIL-TO-RAIL INPUTS The input stage of the MCP6V01/2/3 op amps uses two differential CMOS input stages in parallel. One operates at low common mode input voltage (VCM, which is approximately equal to VIN+ and VIN– in normal operation) and the other at high VCM. With this topology, the input operates with VCM up to 0.2V past either supply rail at +25°C (see Figure 2-18). The input offset voltage (VOS) is measured at VCM = VSS – 0.2V and VDD + 0.2V to ensure proper operation. The transition between the input stages occurs when VCM ≈ VDD – 0.9V (see Figure 2-7 and Figure 2-8). For the best distortion and gain linearity, with non-inverting gains, avoid this region of operation. 4.2.1.1 VDD D1 V1 R1 Input Voltage and Current Limits The ESD protection on the inputs can be depicted as shown in Figure 4-4. This structure was chosen to protect the input transistors, and to minimize input bias current (IB). 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 too far above VDD; their breakdown voltage is high enough to allow normal operation, and low enough to bypass quick ESD events within the specified limits. VIN+ Bond Pad Input Stage Bond V – IN Pad FIGURE 4-4: Structures. Simplified Analog Input ESD In order to prevent damage and/or improper operation of these amplifiers, the circuit must limit the currents (and voltages) at the input pins (see Section 1.1 “Absolute Maximum Ratings †”). Figure 4-5 shows the recommended approach to protecting these inputs. The internal ESD diodes prevent the input pins (VIN+ and VIN–) from going too far below ground, and the resistors R1 and R2 limit the possible current drawn out of the input pins. Diodes D1 and D2 prevent the input © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. VOUT VSS – (minimum expected V1) 2 mA VSS – (minimum expected V2) R2 > 2 mA R1 > FIGURE 4-5: Inputs. Protecting the Analog It is also possible to connect the diodes to the left of the resistor R1 and R2. In this case, the currents through the diodes D1 and D2 need to be limited by some other mechanism. The resistors then serve as in-rush current limiters; the DC current into the input pins (VIN+ and VIN–) should be very small. A significant amount of current can flow out of the inputs (through the ESD diodes) when the common mode voltage (VCM) is below ground (VSS); see Figure 2-17. Applications that are high impedance may need to limit the usable voltage range. RAIL-TO-RAIL OUTPUT The output voltage range of the MCP6V01/2/3 auto-zeroed op amps is VDD – 15 mV (minimum) and VSS + 15 mV (maximum) when RL = 20 kΩ is connected to VDD/2 and VDD = 5.5V. Refer to Figure 2-19 and Figure 2-20 for more information. These op amps are designed to drive light loads; use another amplifier to buffer the output from heavy loads. 4.2.3 VSS Bond Pad MCP6V0X R2 4.2.2 VDD Bond Pad D2 V2 Phase Reversal The input devices are designed to not exhibit phase inversion when the input pins exceed the supply voltages. Figure 2-43 shows an input voltage exceeding both supplies with no phase inversion. 4.2.1.2 pins (VIN+ and VIN–) from going too far above VDD, and dump any currents onto VDD. When implemented as shown, resistors R1 and R2 also limit the current through D1 and D2. CHIP SELECT (CS) The single MCP6V03 has a Chip Select (CS) pin. When CS is pulled high, the supply current for the corresponding op amp drops to about 1 µA (typical), and is pulled through the CS pin to VSS. When this happens, the amplifier is put into a high impedance state. By pulling CS low, the amplifier is enabled. If the CS pin is left floating, the internal pull-down resistor (about 5 MΩ) will keep the part on. Figure 1-4 shows the output voltage and supply current response to a CS pulse. DS22058C-page 23 MCP6V01/2/3 4.3 Application Tips 4.3.1 4.3.4 INPUT OFFSET VOLTAGE OVER TEMPERATURE Table 1-1 gives both the linear and quadratic temperature coefficients (TC1 and TC2) of input offset voltage. The input offset voltage, at any temperature in the specified range, can be calculated as follows: EQUATION 4-1: V OS ( T A ) = V OS + TC 1 ΔT + TC 2 ΔT 2 Where: ΔT = TA – 25°C VOS(TA) = input offset voltage at TA VOS = input offset voltage at +25°C TC1 = linear temperature coefficient TC2 = quadratic temperature coefficient 4.3.2 DC GAIN PLOTS SOURCE CAPACITANCE The capacitances seen by the two inputs should be small and matched. The internal switches connected to the inputs dump charges on these capacitors; an offset can be created if the capacitances do not match. 4.3.5 CAPACITIVE LOADS 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. These auto-zeroed op amps have a different output impedance than most op amps, due to their unique topology. When driving a capacitive load with these op amps, a series resistor at the output (RISO in Figure 4-6) 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 capacitive load. Figure 2-9, Figure 2-10 and Figure 2-11 are histograms of the reciprocals (in units of µV/V) of CMRR, PSRR and AOL, respectively. They represent the change in input offset voltage (VOS) with a change in common mode input voltage (VCM), power supply voltage (VDD) and output voltage (VOUT). 4.3.3 SOURCE RESISTANCES The input bias currents have two significant components; switching glitches that dominate at room temperature and below, and input ESD diode leakage currents that dominate at +85°C and above. Make the resistances seen by the inputs small and equal. This minimizes the output offset caused by the input bias currents. The inputs should see a resistance on the order of 10Ω to 1 kΩ at high frequencies (i.e., above 1 MHz). This helps minimize the impact of switching glitches, which are very fast, on overall performance. In some cases, it may be necessary to add resistors in series with the inputs to achieve this improvement in performance. DS22058C-page 24 VOUT CL MCP6V0X FIGURE 4-6: Output Resistor, RISO, Stabilizes Capacitive Loads. Figure 4-7 gives recommended RISO values for different capacitive loads and is independent of the gain. 10000 10k Recommended R ISO (Ω) The 1/AOL histogram is centered near 0 µV/V because the measurements are dominated by the op amp’s input noise. The negative values shown represent noise, not unstable behavior. We validate the op amps’ stability by making multiple measurements of VOS; instability would manifest itself as a greater unexplained variability in VOS or as the railing of the output.

MCP6V01/2/3 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 MCP6V01 SPICE macro model (good for all of the MCP6V01/2/3 op amps) are helpful. 4.3.6 STABILIZING OUTPUT LOADS This family of auto-zeroed op amps has an output impedance (Figure 2-31 and Figure 2-32) that has a double zero when the gain is low. This can cause a large phase shift in feedback networks that have low resistance near the part’s bandwidth. This large phase shift can cause stability problems. Figure 4-8 shows one circuit example that has low resistance near the part’s bandwidth. RF and CF set a pole at 0.16 kHz, so the noise gain (GN) is 1 V/V at the circuit’s bandwidth (roughly 1.3 MHz). The load seen by the op amp’s output at 1.3 MHz is RG||RL (99Ω). This is low enough to be a real concern. VIN RN 100Ω MCP6V0X RG 100Ω RF 10.0 kΩ VOUT RL 10.0 kΩ CF 0.1 µF FIGURE 4-8: Output Load Issue. To solve this problem, increase the resistive load to at least 3 kΩ. Methods to accomplish this task include: • Increase RG • Remove CF (relocate the filter) • Add a 3 kΩ resistor at the op amp’s output that is not in the signal path; see Figure 4-9 4.3.7 REDUCING UNDESIRED NOISE AND SIGNALS Reduce undesired noise and signals with: • Low bandwidth signal filters: - Minimizes random analog noise - Reduces interfering signals • Good PCB layout techniques: - Minimizes crosstalk - Minimizes parasitic capacitances and inductances that interact with fast switching edges • Good power supply design: - Isolation from other parts - Filtering of interference on supply line(s) 4.3.8 SUPPLY BYPASSING AND FILTERING With this family of operational amplifiers, the 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 of the pin for good high-frequency performance. These parts also need 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 low noise, analog parts. Additional filtering of high frequency power supply noise (e.g., switched mode power supplies) can be achieved using resistors. The resistors need to be small enough to prevent a large drop in VDD for the op amp, which would cause a reduced output range and possible load-induced power supply noise. The resistors also need to be large enough to dissipate little power when VDD is turned on and off quickly. The circuit in Figure 4-10 gives good rejection out to 1 MHz for switched mode power supplies. Smaller resistors and capacitors are a better choice for designs where the power supply is reasonably quiet.

DS22058C-page 25 MCP6V01/2/3 4.3.9 PCB DESIGN FOR DC PRECISION In order to achieve DC precision on the order of ±1 µV, many physical errors need to be minimized. The design of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB), the wiring, and the thermal environment has a strong impact on the precision achieved. A poor PCB design can easily be more than 100 times worse than the MCP6V01/2/3 op amps minimum and maximum specifications. 4.3.9.1 Thermo-junctions Any time two dissimilar metals are joined together, a temperature dependent voltage appears across the junction (the Seebeck or thermo-junction effect). This effect is used in thermocouples to measure temperature. The following are examples of thermo-junctions on a PCB: • Components (resistors, op amps, …) soldered to a copper pad • Wires mechanically attached to the PCB • Jumpers • Solder joints • PCB vias 4.3.9.2 Non-inverting and Inverting Amplifier Layout for Thermo-junctions Figure 4-11 shows the recommended non-inverting and inverting gain amplifier circuits on one schematic. Usually, to minimize the input bias current related offset, R1 is chosen to be R2||R3. The guard traces (with ground vias at the ends) help minimize the thermal gradients. The resistor layout cancels the resistor thermal voltages, assuming the temperature gradient is constant near the resistors: EQUATION 4-2: VOUT ≈ VPGP, ≈ -VMGM, • Minimize thermal gradients • Cancel thermo-junction voltages • Minimize difference in thermal potential between metals VP = GND Where: GM = R3/R2, inverting gain magnitude GP = 1 + GM, non-inverting gain magnitude VOS is neglected Typical thermo-junctions have temperature to voltage conversion coefficients of 10 to 100 µV/°C (sometimes higher). There are three basic approaches to minimizing thermo-junction effects: VM = GND R3 R2 VM VP U1 VOUT R1 R2 R3 VM U1 MCP6V01 VP VOUT R1 FIGURE 4-11: PCB Layout and Schematic for Single Non-inverting and Inverting Amplifiers. Note: DS22058C-page 26 Changing the orientation of the resistors will usually cause a significant decrease in the cancellation of the thermal voltages. © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP6V01/2/3 4.3.9.3 Difference Amplifier Layout for Thermo-junctions Figure 4-12 shows the recommended difference amplifier circuit. Usually, we choose R1 = R2 and R3 = R4. The guard traces (with ground vias at the ends) help minimize the thermal gradients. The resistor layout cancels the resistor thermal voltages, assuming the temperature gradient is constant near the resistors: VOUT ≈ VREF + (VP – VM)GDM Where: The dual op amp amplifiers shown in Figure 4-16 and Figure 4-17 produce a non-inverting difference gain greater than 1, and a common mode gain of 1 .They can use the layout shown in Figure 4-13. The gain setting resistors (R2) between the two sides are not combined so that the thermal voltages can be canceled. EQUATION 4-4: Thermal voltages are approximately equal = Dual Non-inverting Amplifier Layout for Thermo-junctions The guard traces (with ground vias at the ends) help minimize the thermal gradients.

Changing the orientation of the resistors will usually cause a significant decrease in the cancellation of the thermal voltages. DS22058C-page 27 MCP6V01/2/3 4.3.9.5 Other PCB Thermal Design Tips In cases where an individual resistor needs to have its thermo-junction voltage cancelled, it can be split into two equal resistors as shown in Figure 4-14. To keep the thermal gradients near the resistors as small as possible, the layouts are symmetrical with a ring of metal around the outside. Make R1A = R1B = R1/2 and R2A = R2B = 2R2. R1A R1B R2A R2B R1A R1B R2A R2B FIGURE 4-14: Resistors. Note: PCB Layout for Individual Changing the orientation of the resistors will usually cause a significant decrease in the cancellation of the thermal voltages. Minimize temperature gradients at critical components (resistors, op amps, heat sources, etc.): • Minimize exposure to gradients - Small components - Tight spacing - Shield from air currents • Align with constant temperature (contour) lines - Place on PCB center line • Minimize magnitude of gradients - Select parts with lower power dissipation - Use same metal junctions on thermo-junctions that need to match - Use metal junctions with low temperature to voltage coefficients - Large distance from heat sources - Ground plane underneath (large area) - FR4 gaps (no copper for thermal insulation) - Series resistors inserted into traces (adds thermal and electrical resistance) - Use heat sinks 4.3.9.6 Crosstalk DC crosstalk causes offsets that appear as a larger input offset voltage. Common causes include: • Common mode noise (remote sensors) • Ground loops (current return paths) • Power supply coupling Interference from the mains (usually 50 Hz or 60 Hz), and other AC sources, can also affect the DC performance. Non-linear distortion can convert these signals to multiple tones, included a DC shift in voltage. When the signal is sampled by an ADC, these AC signals can also be aliased to DC, causing an apparent shift in offset. To reduce interference: - Keep traces and wires as short as possible Use shielding (e.g., encapsulant) Use ground plane (at least a star ground) Place the input signal source near to the DUT Use good PCB layout techniques Use a separate power supply filter (bypass capacitors) for these auto-zeroed op amps 4.3.9.7 Miscellaneous Effects Keep the resistances seen by the input pins as small and as near to equal as possible to minimize bias current related offsets. Make the (trace) capacitances seen by the input pins small and equal. This is helpful in minimizing switching glitch-induced offset voltages. Bending a coax cable with a radius that is too small causes a small voltage drop to appear on the center or (the tribo-electric effect). Make sure the bending radius is large enough to keep the conductors and insulation in full contact. Mechanical stresses can make some capacitor types (such as ceramic) to output small voltages. Use more appropriate capacitor types in the signal path and minimize mechanical stresses and vibration. Humidity can cause electro-chemical potential voltages to appear in a circuit. Proper PCB cleaning helps, as does the use of encapsulants. Make the temperature gradient point in one direction: • Add guard traces - Constant temperature curves follow the traces - Connect to ground plane • Shape any FR4 gaps - Constant temperature curves follow the edges DS22058C-page 28 © 2008 Microchip Technology Inc. MCP6V01/2/3 4.4 Typical Applications 4.4.1 4.4.2 WHEATSTONE BRIDGE Many sensors are configured as Wheatstone bridges. Strain gauges and pressure sensors are two common examples. These signals can be small and the common mode noise large. Amplifier designs with high differential gain are desirable. RTD SENSOR The ratiometric circuit in Figure 4-17 conditions a three wire RTD. It corrects for the sensor’s wiring resistance by subtracting the voltage across the middle RW. The top R1 does not change the output voltage; it balances the op amp inputs. Failure (open) of the RTD is detected by an out of range voltage. Figure 4-15 shows how to interface to a Wheatstone bridge with a minimum of components. Because the circuit is not symmetric, the ADC input is single ended, and there is a minimum of filtering, the CMRR is good enough for moderate common mode noise. 0.01C VDD R R R 0.2R R 3 kΩ 100R VDD ½ MCP6V02 2.49 kΩ VDD RW ADC 10 nF RRTD 100Ω 0.2R MCP6V01 FIGURE 4-15: Simple Design.

DS22058C-page 29 MCP6V01/2/3 4.4.3 THERMOCOUPLE SENSOR Figure 4-18 shows a simplified diagram of an amplifier and temperature sensor used in a thermocouple application. The type K thermocouple senses the temperature at the hot junction (THJ), and produces a voltage at V1 proportional to THJ (in °C). The amplifier’s gain is is set so that V4/THJ is 10 mV/°C. V3 represents the output of a temperature sensor, which produces a voltage proportional to the temperature (in °C) at the cold junction (TCJ), and with a 0.50V offset. V2 is set so that V4 is 0.50V when THJ – TCJ is 0°C. EQUATION 4-5: V1 ≈ THJ(40 µV/°C) V2 = (1.00V) The MCP9700A senses the temperature at its physical location. It needs to be at the same temperature as the cold junction (TCJ), and produces V3 (Figure 4-16). The MCP1541 produces a 4.10V output, assuming VDD is at 5.0V. This voltage, tied to a resistor ladder of 4.100(RTH) and 1.3224(RTH), would produce a Thevenin equivalent of 1.00V and 250(RTH). The 1.3224(RTH) resistor is combined in parallel with the top right RTH resistor (in Figure 4-18), producing the 0.5696(RTH) resistor. V4 should be converted to digital, then corrected for the thermocouple’s non-linearity. The ADC can use the MCP1541 as its voltage reference. Alternately, an absolute reference inside a PICmicro® can be used instead of the MCP1541. V3 = TCJ(10 mV/°C) + (0.50V) 4.4.4 V4 = 250V1 + (V2 – V3) Figure 4-20 shows a MCP6V01 correcting the input offset voltage of another op amp. R2 and C2 integrate the offset error seen at the other op amp’s input; the integration needs to be slow enough to be stable (with the feedback provided by R1 and R3). ≈ (10 mV/°C) (THJ – TCJ) + (0.50V) (hot junction RTH = Thevenin Equivalent Resistance at THJ) (R ) (R ) TH TH V2 40 µV/°C Type K Thermocouple (RTH)/250 V4 (RTH)/250 V3 FIGURE 4-18: Simplified Circuit.

DS22058C-page 41 MCP6V01/2/3 APPENDIX B: OFFSET RELATED TEST SCREENS We use production screens to ensure the quality of our outgoing products. These screens are set at wider limits to eliminate any fliers; see Table B-1. Input offset voltage related specifications in the DC spec table (Table 1-1) are based on bench measurements (see Section 2.1 “DC Input Precision”). These measurements are much more accurate because: • • • • More compact circuit Soldered parts on the PCB More time spent averaging (reduces noise) Better temperature control - Reduced temperature gradients - Greater accuracy TABLE B-1: OFFSET RELATED TEST SCREENS Electrical Characteristics: Unless otherwise indicated, TA = 25°C, VDD = +1.8V to +5.5V, VSS = GND, VCM = VDD/3, VOUT = VDD/2, VL = VDD/2, RL = 20 kΩ to VL, and CS = GND (refer to Figure 1-5 and Figure 1-6).
