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.

The output pin is a low-impedance voltage source.
3.2
Power Supply Pins (VDD, VSS)
The positive power supply (VDD) is 1.4V to 6.0V 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 MCP6441/2/4 op amp is manufactured using
Microchip’s state-of-the-art CMOS process, specifically
designed for low power applications.
4.1
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.

Rail-to-Rail Input
4.1.1
PHASE REVERSAL
The MCP6441/2/4 op amp is designed to prevent
phase reversal, when the input pins exceed the supply
voltages. Figure 2-29 shows the input voltage
exceeding the supply voltage with no phase reversal.

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 2-31.
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.

Simplified Analog Input ESD
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 MCP6441/2/4 op amp 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.
Figure 4-5 gives the recommended RISO values for the
different capacitive loads and gains. The x-axis is the
normalized load capacitance (CL/GN), where GN is the
circuit's noise gain. For non-inverting gains, GN and the
Signal Gain are equal. For inverting gains, GN is
1+|Signal Gain| (e.g., -1 V/V gives GN = +2 V/V).
1000000
1M
Recommended RISO (Ω)
4.1.4
The transition between the input stages occurs when
VCM is near VDD – 0.6V (see Figures 2-3 and 2-4). For
the best distortion performance and gain linearity, with
non-inverting gains, avoid this region of operation.
4.2
Rail-to-Rail Output
The output voltage range of the MCP6441/2/4 op amp
is VSS + 20 mV (minimum) and VDD – 20 mV (maximum) when RL = 10 kΩ is connected to VDD/2 and
VDD = 6.0V. Refer to Figures 2-22 and 2-23 for more
information.
4.3
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. While a unity-gain buffer (G = +1 V/V) is the
most sensitive to the capacitive loads, all gains show
the same general behavior.
When driving large capacitive loads with the
MCP6441/2/4 op amp (e.g., > 100 pF when
G = +1 V/V), a small series resistor at the output (RISO
in Figure 4-4) 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.

for Capacitive Loads.
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 MCP6441/2/4 SPICE macro
model are very helpful.
4.4
Supply Bypass
The MCP6441/2/4 op amp’s 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.
4.5
PCB Surface Leakage
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 1012Ω. A 5V difference would
cause 5 pA of current to flow, which is greater than the
MCP6441/2/4 op amp’s bias current at +25°C (±1 pA,
typical).
FIGURE 4-4:

MCP6441/2/4
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 4-6.

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
BATTERY CURRENT SENSING
The MCP6441/2/4 op amp’s 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
(450 nA, typical) helps prolong battery life, and the
rail-to-rail output supports detection of low currents.
Figure 4-7 shows a high side battery current sensor
circuit. The 10Ω resistor is sized to minimize power
losses. The battery current (IDD) through the 10Ω
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.

PRECISION HALF-WAVE
RECTIFIER
4.6.3
The precision half-wave rectifier, which is also known
as a super diode, is a configuration obtained with an
operational amplifier in order to have a circuit behaving
like an ideal diode and rectifier. It effectively cancels the
forward voltage drop of the diode in such way that very
low level signals can still be rectified, with minimal
error. This can be useful for high-precision signal
processing. The MCP6441/2/4 op amp has high input
impedance, low input bias current and rail-to-rail
input/output, which makes this device suitable for
precision rectifier applications.
Figure 4-8 shows a precision half-wave rectifier and its
transfer characteristic. The rectifier’s input impedance
is determined by the input resistor R1. To avoid the
loading effect, it must be driven from a low-impedance
source.
When VIN is greater than zero, D1 is OFF, D2 is ON, and
VOUT is zero. When VIN is less than zero, D1 is ON, D2
is OFF, and VOUT is the VIN with an amplification of
-R2/R1.
The rectifier circuit shown in Figure 4-8 has the benefit
that the op amp never goes in saturation, so the only
thing affecting its frequency response is the
amplification and the gain bandwidth product.
INSTRUMENTATION AMPLIFIER
The MCP6441/2/4 op amp is well suited for conditioning sensor signals in battery-powered applications.
Figure 4-9 shows a two op amp instrumentation
amplifier, using the MCP6441/2/4 device, that works
well for applications requiring rejection of Common
Mode noise at higher gains. The reference voltage
(VREF) is supplied by a low-impedance source. In single supply applications, VREF is typically VDD/2.

DESIGN AIDS
Microchip provides the basic design tools needed for
the MCP6441/2/4 op amp.
5.1
SPICE Macro Model
The latest SPICE macro model for the MCP6441/2/4
op amp is available on the Microchip web site at
www.microchip.com. The model was written and tested
in the official OrCAD (Cadence®) owned PSpice®. For
the other simulators, translation may be required.
The model covers a wide aspect of the op amp's
electrical specifications. Not only does the model cover
voltage, current and resistance of the op amp, but it
also covers the temperature and the noise effects on
the behavior of the op amp. The model has not been
verified outside of the specification range listed in the
op amp data sheet. The model behaviors under these
conditions cannot ensure it will match the actual op
amp performance.
Moreover, the model is intended to be an initial design
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.
5.2
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.

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.

applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.
