The LT
®
1028(gain of –1 stable)/LT1128(gain of +1 stable)
achieve a new standard of excellence in noise performance
with 0.85nV/√Hz 1kHz noise, 1.0nV/√Hz 10Hz noise. This
ultralow noise is combined with excellent high speed
specifications (gain-bandwidth product is 75MHz for
LT1028, 20MHz for LT1128), distortion-free output, and
true precision parameters (0.1µV/°C drift, 10µV offset
voltage, 30 million voltage gain). Although the LT1028/
LT1128 input stage operates at nearly 1mA of collector
current to achieve low voltage noise, input bias current is
only 25nA.
The LT1028/LT1128’s voltage noise is less than the noise
of a 50Ω resistor. Therefore, even in very low source
impedance transducer or audio amplifier applications, the
LT1028/LT1128’s contribution to total system noise will
be negligible.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
Input Offset Voltage measurements are performed by automatic
test equipment approximately 0.5 sec. after application of power. In
addition, at T
A
= 25°C, offset voltage is measured with the chip heated to
approximately 55°C to account for the chip temperature rise when the
device is fully warmed up.
Note 3:
Long Term Input Offset Voltage Stability refers to the average
trend line of Offset Voltage vs. Time over extended periods after the first
30 days of operation. Excluding the initial hour of operation, changes in
V
OS
during the first 30 days are typically 2.5µV.
Note 4:
This parameter is tested on a sample basis only.
Note 5:
10Hz noise voltage density is sample tested on every lot with the
exception of the S8 and S16 packages. Devices 100% tested at 10Hz are
available on request.
Note 6:
Current noise is defined and measured with balanced source
resistors. The resultant voltage noise (after subtracting the resistor noise
on an RMS basis) is divided by the sum of the two source resistors to
obtain current noise. Maximum 10Hz current noise can be inferred from
100% testing at 1kHz.
Note 7:
Gain-bandwidth product is not tested. It is guaranteed by design
and by inference from the slew rate measurement.
Note 8:
This parameter is not 100% tested.
Note 9:
The inputs are protected by back-to-back diodes. Current-limiting
resistors are not used in order to achieve low noise. If differential input
voltage exceeds
±1.8V,
the input current should be limited to 25mA.
Note 10:
This parameter guaranteed by design, fully warmed up at T
A
=
70°C. It includes chip temperature increase due to supply and load
currents.
Note 11:
The LT1028/LT1128 are designed, characterized and expected to
meet these extended temperature limits, but are not tested at –40°C and
85°C. Guaranteed I grade parts are available. Consult factory.
