MCP6042T-I

Microchip · Operational Amplifier · SOIC-8

MCP6042T-I from Microchip, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VOUTA output Op-amp A output. Rail-to-rail output; typical linear-region swing to within 100 mV of VDD and VSS with a 50 kΩ load.
2 VINA- input Op-amp A inverting input. Rail-to-rail CMOS input; common-mode range VSS−0.3V to VDD+0.3V; input bias current 1 pA typical.
3 VINA+ input Op-amp A non-inverting input. Rail-to-rail CMOS input; common-mode range VSS−0.3V to VDD+0.3V.
4 VSS power_in Negative supply / ground. Typically tied to GND in single-supply operation. VDD−VSS absolute maximum 7.0V; operating supply 1.4V to 6.0V.
5 VINB+ input Op-amp B non-inverting input. Rail-to-rail CMOS input; common-mode range VSS−0.3V to VDD+0.3V.
6 VINB- input Op-amp B inverting input. Rail-to-rail CMOS input; common-mode range VSS−0.3V to VDD+0.3V; input bias current 1 pA typical.
7 VOUTB output Op-amp B output. Rail-to-rail output; short-circuit current 2 mA typical at VDD=1.4V, 20 mA typical at VDD=5.5V.
8 VDD power_in Positive supply. Operating range 1.4V to 6.0V; quiescent current 0.6 µA/amplifier typical. Bypass with 0.1 µF ceramic close to the pin.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
mcp6042t-i.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
mcp6042t-i-etched.step 1.9 MB You want the part with MCP6042T-I already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 478 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Microchip datasheet (34 pp, sha256 c5a1a85b953bea3b, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
