Overview

MSOP (Mini Small Outline Package)¹ is a family of SMD component packages with gull-wing leads. The family is a miniaturized version of the SSOP package. There are a few common variants in the MSOP family, the MSOP-8, MSOP-10, and MSOP-16.

The exposed pad on this package is optional (Analog Devices have separate codes for each).
