The ALD1706 is a monolithic CMOS ultra micropower high slew-rate, high performance operational amplifier intended for a broad range of analog applications using  ±1V to ±6V dual power supply systems, as well as +2V to +12V battery operated systems.  All device characteristics are specified for +5V single supply or ± 2.5V dual supply systems.  Supply current is 40µA maximum at 5V supply voltage.  It is manufactured with Advanced Linear Devices' enhanced ACMOS silicon gate CMOS process.

The ALD1706 is designed to offer high performance for  a wide range of applications requiring very low power dissipation.   It offers the popular industry standard single operational amplifier pin configuration.

The ALD1706 has been developed specifically for the +5V single battery or ±1V to ±6V dual battery user.  Several important characteristics of the device make application easier to implement at those voltages.  First, the operational amplifier can operate with rail to rail input and output voltages. This means the signal input voltage and output voltage can be close to or equal to the positive and negative supply voltages.  This feature allows numerous analog serial stages and flexibility in input signal bias levels.Secondly, the device was designed to accommodate mixed applications where digital and analog circuits may operate off the same power supply or battery.  Thirdly, the output stage can typically drive up to 25pF capacitive and 20KΩ resistive loads.  These features, combined with extremely low input currents, high open loop voltage gain of 100V/mV, useful bandwidth of 400KHz, a slew rate of 0.17V/µs, low offset voltage and temperature drift, make the ALD1706 a versatile, micropower operational amplifier.

The ALD1706, designed and fabricated with silicon gate CMOS techno logy, offers 0.1 pA typical input bias current.  On chip offset voltage trimming allows the device to be used without nulling in most applications.
