DESCRIPTION
The OPA234 series low cost op amps are ideal for
single supply, low voltage, low power applications. The
series provides lower quiescent current than older
“1013”-type products and comes in current industrystandard packages and pinouts. The combination of low
offset voltage, high common-mode rejection, high power
supply rejection, and a wide supply range provides
excellent accuracy and versatility. Single, dual, and
quad versions have identical specifications for maximum design flexibility. These general purpose op amps
are ideal for portable and battery powered applications.
OPA234 series op amps operate from either single or
dual supplies. In single supply operation, the input common-mode range extends below ground and the output
can swing to within 50mV of ground. Excellent phase
margin makes the OPA234 series ideal for demanding
applications, including high load capacitance. Dual and
quad designs feature completely independent circuitry
for lowest crosstalk and freedom from interaction.
Single version packages are DIP-8, SO-8 surface-mount,
and a space-saving MSOP-8 surface-mount. Dual packages are DIP-8 and SO-8 surface-mount. Quad packages are DIP-14 and SO-14 surface-mount. All are
specified for –40°C to +85°C operation.

OPERATING VOLTAGE
OPA234 series op amps operate from single (+2.7V to
+36V) or dual (±1.35V to ±18V) supplies with excellent
performance. Specifications are production tested with
+2.7V, +5V, and ±15V supplies. Most behavior remains
unchanged throughout the full operating voltage range.
Parameters which vary significantly with operating voltage are shown in typical performance curves.
OFFSET VOLTAGE TRIM
Offset voltage of OPA234 series amplifiers is laser trimmed
and usually requires no user adjustment. The OPA234
(single op amp version) provides offset voltage trim connections on pins 1 and 5. Offset voltage can be adjusted by
connecting a potentiometer as shown in Figure 1. This
adjustment should be used only to null the offset of the op
amp, not to adjust system offset or offset produced by the
signal source. Nulling offset could degrade the offset drift
behavior of the op amp. While it is not possible to predict
the exact change in drift, the effect is usually small.
