Micropower Single Supply Rail-to-Rail
Input-Output Precision Op Amp
The EL8178 is a micropower precision operational amplifier
optimized for single supply operation at 5V and can operate
down to 2.4V.
The EL8178 draws minimal supply current while meeting
excellent DC-accuracy noise and output drive specifications.
Competing devices seriously degrade these parameters to
achieve micropower supply current. Offset current, voltage
and current noise, slew rate, and gain-bandwidth product are
all two to ten times better than on previous micropower op
amps.
The EL8178 can be operated from one lithium cell or two
Ni-Cd batteries. The input range includes both positive and
negative rail. The output swings to both rails.

Applications Information
Typical Applications
Introduction
The EL8178 is a rail-to-rail input and output micro-power
precision single supply operational amplifier with an enable
feature. The device achieves rail-to-rail input and output
operation and eliminates the concerns introduced by a
conventional rail-to-rail I/O operational Amplifier.

FIGURE 17. PH PROBE AMPLIFIER
Rail-to-Rail Input
The PFET input stage of the EL8178 has an input commonmode voltage range that goes from negative supply to
positive supply without introducing offset errors or degrading
performance associated with a conventional rail-to-rail input
operational amplifier. Many rail-to-rail input stages use two
differential input pairs, a long-tail PNP (or PFET) and an
NPN (or NFET). Severe penalties have to be paid for this
topology. As the input signal moves from one supply rail to
another, the operational amplifier switches from one input
pair to the other causing drastic changes in input offset
voltage and an undesired change in magnitude and polarity
of input offset current.
The EL8178 achieves input rail-to-rail performance without
sacrificing important precision specifications and without
degrading distortion performance. The EL8178's input offset
voltage exhibits a smooth behavior throughout the entire
common-mode input range.
Rail-to-Rail Output
A pair of complementary MOSFET devices achieves rail-torail output swing. The NMOS sinks current to swing the
output in the negative direction. The PMOS sources current
to swing the output in the positive direction. The EL8178 with
a 100kΩ load will swing to within 3mV of the supply rails.
Enable/Disable Feature
The EL8178 offers an EN pin. The active low enable pin
disables the device when pulled up to at least 2.2V. Upon
disable the part consumes typically 3µA, while the output is
in a high impedance state. The EN also has an internal pull
down. If left open, the EN pin will pull to negative rail and the
device will be enabled by default. The high impedance at
output during disable allows multiple EL8178s to be
connected together as a MUX. The outputs are tied together
in parallel and a channel can be selected by the EN pin.

A general-purpose combination pH probe has extremely
high output impedance typically in the range of 10GΩ to
12GΩ. Low loss and expensive Teflon cables are often used
to connect the PH probe to the meter electronics. The above
circuit provides a low-cost alternative solution using the
EL8178 and a low-cost coax cable. The EL8178 PMOS high
impedance input senses the pH probe output signal and
buffers it to drive the coax cable. Its rail-to-rail input nature
also eliminates the need for a bias resistor network required
by other amplifiers in the same application.

FIGURE 18. THERMOCOUPLE AMPLIFIER
Thermocouples are the most popular temperature-sensing
device because of their low cost, interchangeability, and
ability to measure a wide range of temperatures. The
EL8178 is used to convert the differential thermocouple
voltage into single-ended signal with 10X gain. The
EL8178's rail-to-rail input characteristic allows the
thermocouple to be biased at ground and the converter to
run from a single 5V supply.
