The TSV7722 precision high-bandwidth operational amplifier from ST Microelectronics, with gain-bandwidth of 22 MHz and slew rate of 11 V/μs, is well-suited for high-speed signal conditioning and accurate current measurement in power-conversion circuits and optical sensors.
The maximum input-offset voltage of 200 µV (typical 50 µV at 25° C) and extremely low input-voltage noise density of 7 nV/√Hz permit accurate low-side current measurements. In addition, the typical input bias

With an operating-voltage range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V, the TSV7722 can be powered from the same supply as low-voltage complementary metal-oxide semiconductor components, such as a microcontroller, or from a deeply discharged battery. Moreover, the TSV7722’s precision parameters and stability over temperature further simplify circuit design by ensuring outstanding accuracy without precision resistors or trimming after assembly.
By providing accurate and responsive current measurements for power-conversion systems, the TSV7722 enhances energy efficiency in applications such as automotive smart mobility, solar panels, telecom infrastructure and computer servers. Automotive-qualified devices will be available in the second half of 2021. The TSV7722 is included in ST Microelectronics’ 10-year longevity program that assures long-term component supply.
