This set of operating conditions appears to be amps as the OP-20, LM4250, and OP-90, provided that the the most representative for battery powered micropower external nulling circuitry (and set resistor in the case of the circuits. Offset voltage is internally trimmed to a minimum LM4250) are removed. Since the offset voltage of the value at these supply voltages. When 9V or 3V batteries, LT1077 is extremely low, nulling will be unnecessary in or ±2.5V dual supplies are used, bias and offset current most applications. changes will be minimal. Offset voltage changes will be just a few microvolts as given by the PSRR and CMRR Single Supply Operation specifications. For example, if PSRR = 114dB ( = 2µV/V), The LT1077 is fully specified for single supply operation, at 9V the offset voltage change will be 8µV. Similarly, (i.e., when the negative supply is 0V). Input common VS ±2.5V, VCM = 0 is equivalent to a common mode voltage mode range goes below ground and the output swings change of 2.4V or a VOS change of 7µV if within a few millivolts of ground while sinking current. All CMRR = 110dB (3µV/V). competing micropower op amps either cannot swing to A full set of specifications is also provided at ±15V supply within 600mV of ground (OP-20, OP-220, OP-420) or voltages for comparison with other devices and for need a pull-down resistor connected to the output to completeness. swing to ground (OP-90, OP-290, OP-490, HA5141/42/ 44).

When the common mode Compatibility includes externally nulling the offset signal is high and the output low, the amplifier has to sink voltage, as all of the devices above are trimmed with current.
