　　ROHM has developed a linear operational amplifier (op amp) - LMR1901YG-M - featuring the lowest* current consumption in the industry. This makes it ideal for amplifying sensor signals used to detect and measure temperature, flow rate, gas concentration, and other parameters in applications powered by internal sources (i.e. batteries).

ROHM Develops a New Op Amp that Minimizes Current Consumption

　　In recent years, advanced control has been in increasing demand for various applications in consumer and industrial electronics. Therefore, there is an increasing need for accurate sensing of parameters relevant to the application - such as, temperature, humidity, vibration, pressure, and flow rate. Op amps whose main function is to amplify sensor signals for subsequent detection and/or analog-to-digital conversion, is a crucial component in the signal chain - greatly affecting both accuracy and power consumption. ROHM is developing op amps that satisfy the dual need for high accuracy and low current consumption. By further refining the circuit design based on original Nano Energy™ technology, ROHM is now able to offer an op amp that delivers the lowest current consumption on the market.

　　The LMR1901YG-M leverages original ultra-low power technology that thoroughly suppresses current increase caused by temperature and voltage changes to reduce current consumption to just 160nA (Typ.) - approximately 38% lower than that of general low power op amps. This not only extends the life of applications powered by internal batteries like electronic shelf labels, but also contributes to longer operating times for smartphones and other devices equipped with rechargeable batteries. At the same time, this low current consumption does not change over the temperature range of -40°C to +105°C - allowing stable low-power operation, even in environments where external temperatures fluctuate, including fire alarms and environmental sensors.

ROHM’s New PWM Controller ICs with SOP Package for Power Supply in a Wide Variety of Industrial Applications

　　ROHM has developed external FET-type controller ICs utilizing PWM current control mode optimized for AC-DC power supply in various industrial applications. Mass production has begun for four variants designed to drive a wide range of power semiconductors: the BD28C55FJ-LB for low-voltage MOSFETs, BD28C54FJ-LB for medium- to high-voltage MOSFETs, BD28C57LFJ-LB for IGBTs, and BD28C57HFJ-LB for SiC MOSFETs.　　Although the global semiconductor shortage is beginning to ease, the supply of semiconductor components for power supplies in industrial applications continues to lag behind demand. This is particularly true for PWM controller ICs, where the limited number of manufacturers has resulted in chronic shortages, leading to numerous requests for product development.　　In response, ROHM has developed PWM controller ICs that address the ongoing supply issue by meeting the industrial market’s stringent package and performance requirements. Depending upon the input AC voltage range of the application, a wide variety of semiconductors are used for power supply circuit. Each of these semiconductors demand different undervoltage lock out levels to prevent thermal runaway in case of supply/gate voltage drop. To solve this issue, ROHM has developed 4 variants with different undervoltage lock out levels.　　The new products feature an input voltage range of 6.9V to 28.0V, circuit current up to 2.0mA, maximum startup current of 75µA, and a maximum duty cycle of 50%, offered in the standard SOP-J8 package (equivalent to the JEDEC SOIC8). The products are pin to pin compatible to standard products commonly used in power supply circuits, thus reducing re-design and modification efforts. All variants are equipped with a self-recovery-type undervoltage lockout function (UVLO) with voltage hysteresis. This significantly improves application reliability by reducing the threshold voltage error to ±5%, compared to the typical ±10% of standard products.　　At the same time, these ICs are designated for long-term supply, thus ensuring continuous operation of long-life industrial equipment. Going forward, the lineup will be further expanded to include products suitable to drive high-voltage MOSFETs and GaN devices. More variants to support a maximum duty cycle of 100% are also being planned.　　Application ExamplesIndustrial equipment: AC-DC power supplies, motor drive inverters, and other AC-powered devices　　Product Information　　Applicable Part Nos: BD28C54FJ-LB, BD28C55FJ-LB, BD28C57HFJ-LB, BD28C57LFJ-LB　　TerminologyPWM Control Type　　Short for Pulse Width Modulation, a method for controlling power using semiconductors. The output power is controlled by varying the ratio of ON and OFF times within a fixed cycle.　　Duty Cycle　　The proportion of ON and OFF times as percentage of the switching period is known as ON- and OFF-duty cycle, respectively. It is common to refer to the ON-time ratio as the duty cycle. Duty Cycle (%) = Pulse Width (t) / Period (T).　　Self-Recovery Undervoltage Lockout Function (UVLO) with Voltage Hysteresis　　This function safety stops IC operation before the circuit inside the IC becomes abnormal when the input voltage drops below a threshold. For self-recovery types, the IC can become unstable by repeatedly stopping and starting near the threshold voltage, so a protection circuit with hysteresis is used to create a voltage difference between the stop and restart points.

ROHM Develops the Industry's Smallest* CMOS Op Amp Optimized

　　ROHM has developed an ultra-compact 1.8V - 5V, rail-to-rail CMOS operational amplifier (op amp) - the TLR377GYZ. It is optimized for amplifying signals from sensors such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, used in smartphones, small IoT devices, and similar applications.　　The size of smartphones and IoT devices continues to decrease - requiring smaller components. To accurately amplify small signals as needed in high precision sensing, op amps must improve low input offset voltage and noise performance while continuing to shrink the form factor.　　The TLR377GYZ succeeds in balancing miniaturization with high accuracy (which has been difficult to achieve with conventional op amps) by further evolving proprietary circuit design, process, and packaging technologies cultivated over many years.　　Op amps’ input offset voltage and noise generation degrade amplification accuracy and can be suppressed by increasing the size of the built-in transistors - but at the expense of miniaturization. In response, ROHM developed proprietary circuits which achieve a maximum offset voltage as low as 1mV without increasing the size of the transistors. In addition, proprietary process technology greatly reduce flicker noise, while ultra-low noise is achieved with an input equivalent noise voltage density of 12nV/√Hz by optimizing the resistive components at the element level. Furthermore, the new product adopts a WLCSP (Wafer Level Chip Scale Package) with a ball pitch of just 0.3mm utilizing original packaging technology. This reduces size by approximately 69% compared to conventional products and 46% over existing compact products.　　The IC-mounted conversion board that can replace SSOP6 packages is also offered to support replacement considerations and initial evaluation. Both the new product and conversion board are available for purchase through online distributors. In addition, the high accuracy SPICE model - called ROHM Real Model - is available on ROHM’s website for verification simulations.　　Going forward, in addition to greater miniaturization and accuracy, ROHM will continue to improve op amp performance by reducing power consumption further utilizing proprietary ultra-low current consumption technology.　　Key Product FeatureA shut down function required by mobile devices is built in, reducing power consumption during standby mode.　　Application Examples• Smartphones, compact IoT devices equipped with measurement sensor amps, etc.　　High Accuracy Simulation Models: ROHM Real ModelsROHM Real Models are new high accuracy SPICE models that utilizes original model-based technology to faithfully reproduce the electrical and temperature characteristics of the actual IC, resulting in a perfect match between the IC and simulation values. This ensures reliable verification, contributing to more efficient application development - for example by preventing rework after prototyping. ROHM Real Models are now available on ROHM’s website.　　TerminologyInput Offset Voltage　　The error voltage that occurs between the input terminals of an op amp.　　Flicker Noise　　Noise inherent to electronic components such as semiconductors. Power is inversely proportional to frequency, so the lower the frequency the greater the power. Also called 1/f noise or pink noise. Other types of noise include thermal (i.e. Johnson-Nyquist, white) noise.　　Equivalent Input Noise Voltage Density　　The value obtained by short-circuiting the input terminals and referring the noise voltage density appearing at the output to the input terminals, i.e., since amplifiers have gain (amplification factor), dividing the output noise voltage density by the gain allows for a fair evaluation of the amplifier’s intrinsic noise characteristics.　　ROHM Real Model　　A high-accuracy simulation model that succeeds in achieving a perfect match between the actual IC and simulation values utilizing ROHM’s proprietary model-based technology.
