Amplifier is ideal for satellite applications such as attitude and orbital controls, sun and inertial sensors, gyroscopes, pressure sensors and earth observation systems.

National Semiconductor Corp has announced the first dual amplifier in its new family of precision operational amplifiers specifically QMLV-qualified for space-level applications The LMP2012WGLQMLV dual operational amplifier is ideal for satellite applications such as attitude and orbital controls, sun and inertial sensors, gyroscopes, pressure sensors, static earth sensing, bolometers and earth observation systems

The LMP2012WGLQMLV is a rail-to-rail output operational amplifier that uses patented techniques to measure and continually correct the input offset error voltage, while eliminating the unwanted 1/f voltage and current noise present in traditional amplifiers.

This results in a high-performance amplifier that offers unparalleled levels of accuracy and stability over time and temperature.

The device is radiation tested to 50krad (Si) and displays excellent common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) and power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) ratings of 90dB over the full space temperature range.

Operating from a supply voltage of 2.7 to 5V, the LMP2012WGLQMLV provides superior performance in transducer amplifiers, high-gain configurations, analogue-to-digital convertor (ADC) buffer amplifiers and digital-to-analogue convertor (DAC) current-to-voltage conversion applications.

The LMP2012WGLQMLV offers low input offset voltage of 60uV over the extended temperature range of -55 to +125C, 4V/us of slew rate and a wide gain-bandwidth of 3MHz for accurate signal amplification.

Other key specifications include input-referred voltage noise of 35nV/(rt)Hz and open-loop gain greater than 100dB.

The LMP2012WGLQMLV is available now in a 10-pin ceramic SOIC package.

It is space-grade qualified to MIL-STD-38535 QML level V and can be purchased as the standard military drawing (SMD) 5962L0620601VZA.
