The MCP6043 is a single op amp with Chip Select
(CS). When CS is pulled high, the supply current drops
to 50 nA (typical) and flows through the CS pin to V
When this happens, the amplifier output is put into a
high impedance state. By pulling CS low, the amplifier
is enabled. If the CS pin is left floating, the amplifier
may not operate properly.

With this family of operational amplifiers, the power
supply pin (V
bypass capacitor (i.e., 0.01 µF to 0.1 µF) within 2 mm
for good high frequency performance. It can use a bulk
capacitor (i.e., 1 µF or larger) within 100 mm to provide
large, slow currents. This bulk capacitor is not required
for most applications and can be shared with nearby
analog parts.

An unused op amp in a quad package (MCP6044)
should be configured as shown in
circuits prevent the output from toggling and causing
crosstalk. Circuits A sets the op amp at its minimum
noise gain. The resistor divider produces any desired
reference voltage within the output voltage range of the
op amp; the op amp buffers that reference voltage.
Circuit B uses the minimum number of components
and operates as a comparator, but it may draw more
current.

In applications where low input bias current is critical,
printed circuit board (PCB) surface leakage effects
need to be considered. Surface leakage is caused by
humidity, dust or other contamination on the board.
Under low humidity conditions, a typical resistance
between nearby traces is 10
cause 5 pA of current to flow, which is greater than the
MCP6041/2/3/4 family’s bias current at +25°C (1 pA,
typical).
The easiest way to reduce surface leakage is to use a
guard ring around sensitive pins (or traces). The guard
ring is biased at the same voltage as the sensitive pin.
