Key Featrues

Ultra-Low Bias Current (100 fA): The OPA129P features an ultra-low input bias current of 100 femtoamperes (fA), which minimizes errors in high-impedance circuits. This makes it ideal for precision applications such as photodiode amplification, electrometer circuits, and sensor interfaces, where even minimal current leakage can significantly impact accuracy.
High Common-Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR): With a CMRR of 118 dB, the amplifier effectively rejects common-mode noise, ensuring accurate signal amplification in noisy environments. This is particularly beneficial in industrial and automotive applications where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is prevalent.
Wide Supply Voltage Range (±5V to ±18V): The OPA129P supports a broad range of supply voltages, providing flexibility in various circuit designs. This versatility allows it to be used in both low-power and high-performance systems, enhancing its applicability across different use cases.
Low Input Offset Voltage (5 mV): The amplifier's low input offset voltage ensures minimal error in signal amplification, which is crucial for precision measurement and control systems. This feature enhances the overall accuracy and reliability of the circuit, making it suitable for high-precision applications.
Through-Hole Packaging (PDIP-8): The PDIP-8 package allows for easy integration into through-hole PCB designs, making it accessible for prototyping and educational purposes. This packaging also provides robust mechanical stability, which is advantageous in rugged environments.
