5.0
Microchip provides the basic design aids needed for
the MCP651/2/4/5/9 family of op amps.
5.1
The latest SPICE macro model for the MCP651/2/4/5/9
op amps is available on the Microchip web site at
www.microchip.com. This model is intended to be an
initial design tool that works well in the op amp’s linear
region of operation over the temperature range. See
the model file for information on its capabilities.
Bench testing is a very important part of any design and
cannot be replaced with simulations. Also, simulation
results using this macro model need to be validated by
comparing them to the data sheet specifications and
characteristic curves.
5.2
Microchip’s FilterLab
software tool that simplifies analog active filter (using
op amps) design. Available at no cost from the
Microchip web site at www.microchip.com/filterlab, the
Filter-Lab design tool provides full schematic diagrams
of the filter circuit with component values. It also
outputs the filter circuit in SPICE format, which can be
used with the macro model to simulate actual filter
performance.
5.3
MAPS is a software tool that helps efficiently identify
Microchip devices that fit a particular design require-
ment. Available at no cost from the Microchip website
at www.microchip.com/maps, the MAPS is an overall
selection tool for Microchip’s product portfolio that
includes Analog, Memory, MCUs and DSCs. Using this
tool, a customer can define a filter to sort features for a
parametric search of devices and export side-by-side
technical comparison reports. Helpful links are also
provided for Data sheets, Purchase and Sampling of
Microchip parts.
5.4
Microchip offers a broad spectrum of Analog Demon-
stration and Evaluation Boards that are designed to
help customers achieve faster time to market. For a
complete listing of these boards and their correspond-
ing user’s guides and technical information, visit the
