Amplifiers and Comparators
From the simplest to the most complex design scenarios, Microchip’s extensive portfolio of amplifier and comparator products enable low risk solutions that remove the fear of forced redesign with our embracing a customer-driven obsolescence policy. Known for our thorough documentation, our datasheets characterize how the parts work and why, providing parts that work on the bench the same way they’re described on paper. Design risk and complexity is further reduced with integrated features such as on-chip filters to reduce electromagnetic interference, integrated references and hardware enable pins (on select devices).
Highlights
Microchip's portfolio of operational Amplifiers (op amps) can address virtually any design requirement. From cost-effective general-purpose amplifiers to precision amplifiers that minimize errors resulting from harsh electrical environments, our op amps minimize development risk and increase system performance by providing reliable, well-documented functionality for years to come.
General-Purpose Amplifiers
Precision Amplifiers
Zero-Drift Amplifiers
Differential Amplifiers
Microchip offers Instrumentation Amplifiers (INAs) that include internal matched feedback and are ideal for data acquisition applications. The ability to accurately extract a small signal in the presence of a large common-mode makes these INAs ideal for sensor amplification. EMI (electromagnetic interference) filtering on select devices maintains excellent performance in the most demanding environments.
Highlights
Microchip’s Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) portfolio includes low-cost, general-purpose PGAs for cost-sensitive applications. For applications that require higher levels of accuracy, we offer a family of precision PGAs that delivers higher performance. We also offer families that support a standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) and on-chip multiplexer as well as devices that offer pin-programmable gain options. These highly integrated devices are ideal for space-constrained applications.
Highlights
The need to accurately measure a dynamic current is critical in a wide variety of applications, such as monitoring or charging batteries, creating a current controlled feedback loop for a power supply or motor, or simply to monitor current levels for safety reasons. Our current sense amplifiers provide a high-flexibility, high-precision solution to maximize efficiency and reliability with a zero-drift architecture, which makes your design more robust across a wide range of environmental conditions and applications.
Highlights
Systems designers know that before they can manage power, they need to measure it. Our power monitor ICs measure power, voltage, current and energy accumulation. For power monitoring from 0 to 40V, our high-side current sensors include an I2C interface that is perfect for embedded computing, networking, industrial and artificial intelligence. To get ahead of the thermal curve, we also offer several devices that integrate both current and temperature sensors.
