How to Make Precision Measurements on
a Nanopower Budget
By Texas Instruments
Heightened accuracy and speed in an operational amplifier
(op-amp) has a direct relationship with the magnitude of its
power consumption. Decreasing the current consumption
decreases the gain bandwidth; conversely, decreasing the
offset voltage increases the current consumption.
Many such interactions between op-amp electrical
characteristics influence one another. With the increasing
need for low power consumption in applications like wireless
sensing nodes, the Internet of Things (IoT) and building
automation, understanding these trade-offs has become
vital to ensure optimal end-equipment performance with the
lowest possible power consumption. Learn more about the
power-to-performance trade-offs of DC gain in precision
nanopower op amps.
