What is the recommended voltage for running a PPA?

I recall reading a Max rail voltage for the 8610 opamps but not a minimum or a recommended. Don't yet have data sheets.

Long story short, I am building a STEPS and PPA (got the boards). What voltage range should I design the STEPS for? (using the 8610s).

This will be line powered only, no option for battery.

The absolute maximum voltage for the AD8610 is 27.3V, a good choice for your STEPS would be 24V.

Thanks.

Just placed an order with Mouser and Digkey.
