Texas Instruments Announces New Zero-Drift Lowest-Power Op Amp

Texas Instruments (TI) introduced the first operational amplifier (op amp) to combine ultra-high precision with the industry's lowest supply current. With exceptional power-to-precision performance, the LPV821 zero-drift, nanopower op amp enables engineers to attain the highest DC precision, while consuming 60 percent less power than competitive zero-drift devices. The LPV821 is designed for use in precision applications such as wireless sensing nodes, home and factory automation equipment, and portable electronics.
