Highlight 1:



Higher Precision with Low Input Offset Voltage (VOS)


Input offset voltage VOS refers to the additional voltage that needs to be compensated at the input terminal to make the output voltage zero when the two input voltages of the operational amplifier are equal. The magnitude of VOS affects the accuracy and error of the entire system's output.

Highlight 2:


High Gain Bandwidth Product (GBW)


The gain bandwidth product is an important parameter used to simply measure the performance of an operational amplifier. This parameter represents the product of gain and bandwidth. The unity-gain bandwidth of an operational amplifier refers to the -3dB bandwidth when the operational amplifier's gain is 1, which is numerically equal to the gain bandwidth product of the operational amplifier.

Highlight 3:

Faster Output Response with High Slew Rate (SR)


The slew rate is the conversion rate of the output voltage of an operational amplifier, an indicator of the operational amplifier in terms of speed. It represents the ability of the operational amplifier to respond to the speed of signal changes and is a parameter to measure the operating speed of the operational amplifier under the action of large-amplitude signals.

Application Solution 1: High-Side Current Sensing



The following circuit diagram shows a high-side current sensing circuit, which operates at a high common-mode input voltage close to the power rail. High-side current sensing eliminates the ground interference generated in the low-side sensing scheme and can also detect load open and short-circuit faults.

Application Solution 3: Application as a Comparator

A comparator is used to distinguish between two different signal levels. For example, a comparator can be used to distinguish between overvoltage, undervoltage, and normal operating states. The AWS79062-Q1 can be used as a comparator, featuring rail-to-rail input and output stages, with an input common-mode range exceeding the power rail by 100mV.
