GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8508 is a quad micropower amplifiers featuring rail-torail input and output swings while operating from a 1.8 V to 5 V
single or from ±0.9 V to ±2.5 V dual power supply.
Using a novel circuit technology, these low cost amplifiers offer
zero crossover distortion (excellent PSRR and CMRR performance) and very low bias current, while operating with a supply
current of less than 20 μA per amplifier. This amplifier offers
the lowest noise in its power class.
This combination of features makes the AD8508 amplifiers
ideal choices for battery-powered applications because they
minimize errors due to power supply voltage variations over the
lifetime of the battery and maintain high CMRR even for a railto-rail input op amp.

Remote battery-powered sensors, handheld instrumentation
and consumer equipment, hazard detection (for example, smoke,
fire, and gas), and patient monitors can benefit from the features
of the AD8508 amplifiers.
The AD8508 are specified for both the industrial temperature
range of −40°C to +85°C and the extended industrial temperature
range of −40°C to +125°C. The AD8508 quad amplifiers are
available in the 14-lead TSSOP package.
