Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: '''OPA''' - Operational Amplifiers for hardware developers and manufacturing When RCal is hardware processed (not software configured) we consider using a lower offset OPA than LM324D (although we could calibrate and compansate in software). I'm a bit confused, which is the order of preference for OPA now? Please review * LT1882 ? best * texas type x ? good * texas type y ? still OK * LM324D last chance '''We selected the 277 series from Texas.''' Try to use it for pump and sensitive stuff (such as precise input mA diffamp) only. OPA2277 has 2 OPA-s in 8 pin SOIC * [http://www-s.ti.com/sc/ds/opa4277.pdf OPA4277.pdf] page 6: rail-2-rail properties are OK. +0.6V and Vss-1V at 5mA. ---- '''Dropped:''' * [http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/folders/print/opa227.html OPA2228] (texas) series 75uV offset, not rail2rail but it might work. * LT1882 or LT1885 nice parts but where to get? Our distributor does not have any. linear.com has some webshop, that might work ---- '''MCP3208 serial ADC (SAR) substitute''' * [http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/folders/print/tlc1543.html TCL1543] 11 channels, 10 bit ADC with good cost and temperature range (whenever 8 of the MCP3208 is on the low side), the DB20 package is nice small footprint. ---- '''See also''' * VemsFrontier/ArmEfi, Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ...
