APPLICATIONS

The MCP6V51 is designed for precision applications

with requirements for small packages and low power.

Its wide supply voltage range and low quiescent current

make the MCP6V51 devices ideal for industrial

applications.

4.1

Overview of Zero-Drift Operation

Figure 4-1 shows a simplified diagram of the

MCP6V51 zero-drift op amp. This diagram will be used

to explain how slow voltage errors are reduced in this

architecture (much better VOS, VOS/TA (TC1),

CMRR, PSRR, AOL and 1/f noise).

BUILDING BLOCKS

The Main Amplifier is designed for high gain and

bandwidth, with a differential topology. Its main input

pair (+ and - pins at the top left) is used for the higher

frequency portion of the input signal. Its auxiliary input

pair (+ and - pins at the bottom left) is used for the

low-frequency portion of the input signal and corrects

the op amp’s input offset voltage. Both inputs are

added together internally.

The Auxiliary Amplifier, Chopper Input Switches and

Chopper Output Switches provide a high DC gain to the

input signal. DC errors are modulated to higher

frequencies, while white noise is modulated to low

frequency.

The Low-Pass Filter reduces high-frequency content,

including harmonics of the chopping clock.

The Output Buffer drives external loads at the VOUT pin

(VREF is an internal reference voltage).

The Oscillator runs at fOSC1 = 200 kHz. Its output is

divided by two, to produce the chopping clock rate of

fCHOP =100 kHz.

The internal Power-on Reset (POR) starts the part in a

known good state, protecting against power supply

brown-outs.

The Digital Control block controls switching and POR

events.

CHOPPING ACTION

Figure 4-2 shows the amplifier connections for the first

phase of the chopping clock and Figure 4-3 shows the

connections for the second phase. Its slow voltage

errors alternate in polarity, making the average error

small.
