GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The OP297 is the first dual op amp to pack precision performance
into the space-saving, industry-standard, 8-lead SOIC package.
Its combination of precision with low power and extremely low
input bias current makes the dual OP297 useful in a wide variety
of applications.

Precision performance of the OP297 includes very low offset,
under 50 µV, and low drift, below 0.6 µV/°C. Open-loop gain
exceeds 2000 V/mV, ensuring high linearity in every application.
Errors due to common-mode signals are eliminated by the
OP297’s common-mode rejection of over 120 dB, which mini-
mizes offset voltage changes experienced in battery-powered
systems. Supply current of the OP297 is under 625 µA per
amplifier, and the part can operate with supply voltages as low
as ± 2 V.
The OP297 uses a super-beta input stage with bias current
cancellation to maintain picoamp bias currents at all temperatures.
This is in contrast to FET input op amps whose bias currents
start in the picoamp range at 25°C, but double for every 10°C
rise in temperature, to reach the nanoamp range above 85°C.
Input bias current of the OP297 is under 100 pA at 25°C and is
under 450 pA over the military temperature range.
Combining precision, low power, and low bias current, the OP297
is ideal for a number of applications, including instrumentation
amplifiers, log amplifiers, photodiode preamplifiers, and long-
term integrators. For a single device, see the OP97; for a quad,
see the OP497.
