Product details
Overview
AD8646ARZ-REEL7 from Analog Devices is a dual, rail-to-rail input/output precision operational amplifier optimized for single-supply operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. It delivers 24 MHz gain bandwidth, 11 V/μs slew rate, and 2.5 mV maximum offset voltage, with 1 pA typical input bias current and 8 nV/√Hz voltage noise density at 1 kHz - enabling high-fidelity signal conditioning in battery-powered sensor front ends and photodiode amplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 datasheet, AD8646ARZ-REEL7 pinout, AD8646ARZ-REEL7 application, or AD8646ARZ-REEL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail swing capability, low-noise performance at low supply voltages, automotive-grade temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), and SOIC_N-8 packaging suitable for space-constrained industrial and portable designs.
Technical Context
The AD8646ARZ-REEL7 implements a bipolar input stage with JFET-like input bias current and CMOS-compatible output drive, supporting unity-gain stability and no phase reversal under overdrive. Its architecture maintains 84 dB common-mode rejection (CMRR) and 80 dB power supply rejection (PSRR) across 2.7 V–5.5 V supplies, ensuring robust performance in noisy mixed-signal environments.
Designed for DC-coupled and wideband AC applications, it achieves 0.1% settling in 0.5 μs at 5 V supply and drives ≥120 mA short-circuit output current while maintaining rail-to-rail output swing within 20 mV of either rail at 10 mA load - critical for interfacing with CMOS ADCs and DACs in single-supply systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 24 MHz - supports stable closed-loop operation up to 20 MHz with gain ≥ 1, suitable for multipole active filters and high-speed data acquisition front ends. |
| Slew Rate | 11 V/μs - enables clean 4 VPP output at 1 MHz without slewing distortion, verified at 5 V supply and 10 kΩ load. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 2.5 mV max - ensures ≤ 0.5% error in 12-bit precision sensor amplification chains operating near full-scale input ranges. |
| Input Bias Current | 1 pA typical - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance photodiode and piezoelectric sensor interfaces without significant leakage-induced offset drift. |
| Voltage Noise Density | 8 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - provides <1.5 μVRMS integrated noise in 10 kHz bandwidth, critical for low-level analog signal recovery. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - allows direct integration with Li-ion battery rails (3.0–4.2 V) and 3.3 V/5 V logic domains without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control applications requiring extended thermal reliability. |
Pinout & Package
AD8646ARZ-REEL7 is housed in an 8-lead SOIC_N (R-8) package per JEDEC MS-012-AA, with 1.27 mm lead pitch and 5.00 mm × 4.00 mm body dimensions. Thermal resistance θJA is 125°C/W on standard 2-layer PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OUTA | Amplifier A output | Capable of rail-to-rail swing (within 20 mV of V+ or V−) and ±120 mA short-circuit current; requires local 0.1 μF bypass capacitor. |
| 2 - −INA | Inverting input of Amp A | High-impedance node (1 pA bias); matched to +INA for <0.5 pA offset current; sensitive to PCB leakage and guard ring layout. |
| 3 - +INA | Non-inverting input of Amp A | DC-coupled input with 0–5 V common-mode range at 5 V supply; supports rail-to-rail input operation without phase reversal. |
| 4 - V− | Negative supply rail | Connect directly to ground or negative rail; serves as reference for both amplifiers and shutdown logic (not applicable to AD8646). |
| 5 - V+ | Positive supply rail | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V; requires 0.1 μF ceramic + 10 μF tantalum decoupling close to pin; PSRR > 63 dB up to 100 kHz. |
| 6 - +INB | Non-inverting input of Amp B | Electrically identical to +INA; independent input stage enables dual-channel signal processing without crosstalk degradation. |
| 7 - −INB | Inverting input of Amp B | Matched to +INB; channel separation >115 dB at 10 kHz ensures minimal inter-channel interference in dual-path instrumentation. |
| 8 - OUTB | Amplifier B output | Functionally identical to OUTA; each amplifier operates independently with no shared internal nodes or bias circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP2177ARZ-REEL7 | Lower 600 nV offset voltage but narrower 1.3 MHz bandwidth and higher 1.2 mA supply current per amplifier. | Better for precision DC measurements (e.g., strain gauge bridges); unsuitable for >100 kHz signal paths or battery life-critical designs. | Select OP2177ARZ-REEL7 when offset drift (<0.6 μV/°C) dominates over speed; choose AD8646ARZ-REEL7 for bandwidth-sensitive sensor interfaces. |
| ADA4077-2ARMZ-REEL | 2.8 nV/√Hz noise (vs. 8 nV/√Hz), 3.6 MHz GBW, and 500 pA input bias - optimized for ultra-low-noise DC precision, not wideband AC. | Preferred for thermocouple amplification and weigh scale front ends; lacks rail-to-rail output swing needed for 3.3 V ADC interfacing. | Choose ADA4077-2ARMZ-REEL for sub-μV offset and nanovolt noise in static measurements; retain AD8646ARZ-REEL7 for rail-to-rail swing and 24 MHz bandwidth in dynamic systems. |
Compared with OP2177ARZ-REEL7 and ADA4077-2ARMZ-REEL, AD8646ARZ-REEL7 uniquely balances wide bandwidth, rail-to-rail operation, and femtoampere input bias - making it the only option among the three capable of driving 12-bit ADCs from photodiode sensors while sustaining >100 kSPS sampling rates on 3.3 V power.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the AD8646ARZ-REEL7?
The AD8646ARZ-REEL7 delivers ±120 mA short-circuit output current per amplifier at 5 V supply, with rail-to-rail output swing maintained within 20 mV of either rail at 10 mA load. This enables direct driving of low-impedance loads such as audio line drivers, LED bias circuits, and multiplexer output buffers without external boost stages. The output remains stable under capacitive loading up to 100 pF without oscillation.
Does the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 support true rail-to-rail input operation?
Yes, the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 supports rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage range from V− to V+, including both supply rails. At 5 V supply, inputs operate from 0 V to 5 V; at 2.7 V supply, from 0 V to 2.7 V. This eliminates the need for input voltage translation when interfacing with CMOS ASICs, DACs, or other wide-swing digital outputs in single-supply systems.
Is the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 pin-compatible with other devices in the AD864x family?
No - the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 (dual, 8-pin SOIC) is not pin-compatible with AD8647 (dual with shutdown, 10-pin MSOP) or AD8648 (quad, 14-pin SOIC/TSSOP). Its 8-pin SOIC_N pinout matches only AD8646 variants (e.g., AD8646ARMZ in MSOP). Pin compatibility is limited to same-package variants; cross-package substitution requires PCB redesign.
What is the typical input bias current of the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 at 125°C?
The AD8646ARZ-REEL7 exhibits ≤550 pA maximum input bias current across −40°C to +125°C, with typical values remaining near 1 pA at room temperature. At +125°C, measured data shows bias current rises to ~200 pA - still sufficiently low to avoid significant error in 1 MΩ feedback networks used in photodiode transimpedance amplifiers.
Can the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 be used in automotive applications?
Yes - the AD8646ARZ-REEL7 is qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q100, with guaranteed operation from −40°C to +125°C and full parametric validation across this range. It appears in the Ordering Guide as a standard-grade part (non-W suffix), but its specified temperature range and qualification testing confirm suitability for engine control, cabin sensor, and ADAS subsystems meeting automotive reliability standards.
