MCP6001/1R/1U/2/4 - 1 MHz, Low-Power Op Amp - Features, Applications, Design Aids

Nov 2, 2026

MCP6001/2/4 family operational amplifiers are designed for general-purpose use with a 1 MHz gain bandwidth product and 90° phase margin (typical). The devices maintain good behavior with a 45° phase margin under a 500 pF capacitive load. Single-supply operation supports voltages as low as 1.8V while consuming 100 µA typical quiescent current and providing rail-to-rail input/output swing. Common-mode input range spans VDD+300 mV to VSS-300 mV across industrial and extended temperature grades, packaged in multiple single/dual/quad options.
