Product details
Overview
ADA4891-3ARZ from Analog Devices is a triple-channel, rail-to-rail output, CMOS high-speed operational amplifier optimized for video and imaging signal conditioning. It delivers 220 MHz −3 dB bandwidth (G = +1), 170 V/µs slew rate, 28 ns settling to 0.1%, and 0.05% differential gain error at 25 MHz - enabling precise NTSC video reconstruction in automotive infotainment and contact image sensor buffers.
For engineers reviewing the ADA4891-3ARZ datasheet, ADA4891-3ARZ pinout, ADA4891-3ARZ application, or ADA4891-3ARZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 14-lead SOIC package with integrated power-down pins (PD1–PD3), 2.7 V to 5.5 V single-supply operation, rail-to-rail output swing within 50 mV of rails, and guaranteed −40°C to +125°C automotive temperature performance.
Technical Context
The ADA4891-3ARZ implements a fully differential input stage with 5 GΩ input resistance and 3.2 pF input capacitance, supporting true single-supply operation with input common-mode range extending 300 mV below the negative rail. Its rail-to-rail output stage uses complementary bipolar-CMOS circuitry to sustain 125 mA linear output current while maintaining 79 dBc SFDR at 1 MHz.
Unlike standard op-amps, the ADA4891-3ARZ integrates three independent power-down control pins (PD1, PD2, PD3) - each with 1.3 V (3 V supply) or 2.4 V (5 V supply) threshold - enabling selective channel shutdown with 49 ns turn-off time and <0.8 mA quiescent current per disabled amplifier, critical for dynamic power management in multi-channel imaging systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| −3 dB Bandwidth | 220 MHz at G = +1 (5 V); enables wideband video and clock buffer applications up to 25 MHz 0.1 dB flatness. |
| Slew Rate | 170 V/µs (5 V); supports fast transient response for 2 V step signals with minimal distortion. |
| Settling Time | 28 ns to 0.1% (G = +2); ensures accurate pulse fidelity in CCD and contact image sensor readout timing. |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.05% / 0.25° (NTSC, RL = 150 Ω); meets broadcast-grade video linearity requirements. |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V; compatible with modern low-voltage automotive and portable imaging power rails. |
| Output Swing | Within 50 mV of both rails (RL = 1 kΩ); maximizes dynamic range in single-supply 3.3 V or 5 V systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 4.4 mA per amplifier (5 V); balances speed and power efficiency for triple-channel operation. |
Pinout & Package
ADA4891-3ARZ is housed in a 14-lead SOIC_N (R-14) package with exposed pad (RoHS-compliant, Pb-free). Pinout follows Figure 4 in Rev. F datasheet: 14-pin layout with three independent amplifiers, shared ±VS rails, and dedicated power-down inputs PD1–PD3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (PD1) | Power-down control for Amp1 | Active-high logic input; drives Amp1 into 0.8 mA shutdown state when >2.4 V (5 V supply). |
| 2 (OUT2) | Amplifier 2 output | Rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing 205 mA / sinking 307 mA into 150 Ω loads. |
| 3 (PD2) | Power-down control for Amp2 | Independent enable/disable for second channel; supports staggered power sequencing. |
| 4 (–IN2) | Inverting input of Amp2 | High-impedance node (5 GΩ) with 3.2 pF capacitance; requires careful PCB layout for stability. |
| 5 (PD3) | Power-down control for Amp3 | Third independent shutdown pin; enables full system-level power gating across all three channels. |
| 6 (+IN2) | Non-inverting input of Amp2 | Supports input common-mode range from −VS − 0.3 V to +VS − 0.8 V for true single-supply use. |
| 7 (OUT1) | Amplifier 1 output | Primary output for high-fidelity video buffering; specified for 0.05% differential gain error. |
| 8 (OUT3) | Amplifier 3 output | Identical performance to OUT1/OUT2; allows simultaneous processing of RGB or YUV signal paths. |
| 9 (–IN3) | Inverting input of Amp3 | Matched to other inverting inputs; supports precision active filter configurations with external feedback. |
| 10 (+IN3) | Non-inverting input of Amp3 | Enables unity-gain follower or non-inverting gain stages without level-shifting circuitry. |
| 11 (–VS) | Negative supply rail | Accepts ground or negative voltage; input extends 300 mV below this rail for flexible biasing. |
| 12 (+IN1) | Non-inverting input of Amp1 | First channel input; optimized for photodiode preamp and coaxial cable driver topologies. |
| 13 (–IN1) | Inverting input of Amp1 | Used in inverting gain configurations (e.g., G = −1, −2); maintains 88 dB CMRR over 0–3 V common-mode range. |
| 14 (+VS) | Positive supply rail | Supplies all three amplifiers; PSRR of 65 dB (positive) and 63 dB (negative) minimizes supply noise coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-channel integration with independent power-down | Reduces board space and inter-channel crosstalk vs. discrete op-amp solutions; enables per-channel power gating in battery-sensitive imaging modules. |
| Rail-to-rail output swing within 50 mV of rails | Preserves full signal headroom in 3.3 V systems, eliminating need for level-shifting or dual supplies in consumer video interfaces. |
| 25 MHz 0.1 dB gain flatness (G = +2, RL = 150 Ω) | Meets SMPTE 259M and NTSC broadcast standards for SD video transmission without external equalization. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADA4891-3ARMZ | Same electrical specs; packaged in 14-lead TSSOP (RU-14) with θJA = 108°C/W vs. SOIC's 162°C/W. | Better thermal performance in dense layouts; smaller footprint but requires finer-pitch assembly. | Select ADA4891-3ARMZ for space-constrained PCBs needing improved power dissipation; ADA4891-3ARZ preferred for legacy SOIC-compatible designs. |
| LMH6629MA/NOPB | Higher 1.5 GHz GBW but no power-down pins; 12 mA/quiescent current vs. 4.4 mA; only dual-channel. | Lacks triple-channel integration and channel-level shutdown; unsuitable for power-gated multi-signal paths. | Choose LMH6629MA/NOPB only when extreme bandwidth (>500 MHz) is required and power-down functionality is unnecessary. |
Compared with ADA4891-3ARMZ, ADA4891-3ARZ offers higher thermal resistance but broader design reuse in existing SOIC footprints; versus LMH6629MA/NOPB, it trades raw bandwidth for triple-channel integration, lower power, and automotive-grade temperature support - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally stable, multi-signal video systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the ADA4891-3ARZ?
The ADA4891-3ARZ is rated for continuous operation from −40°C to +125°C, meeting AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for automotive under-hood applications. This specification is validated across all electrical parameters in the Rev. F datasheet, including bandwidth, distortion, and power-down timing, ensuring reliability in engine control units and ADAS camera modules where ambient temperatures exceed 105°C.
Does the ADA4891-3ARZ support true single-supply operation?
Yes, the ADA4891-3ARZ supports true single-supply operation with an input common-mode voltage range extending 300 mV below the negative rail (−VS − 0.3 V) and rail-to-rail output swing within 50 mV of both supply rails. This enables direct interfacing with sensors and ADCs in 3.3 V or 5 V systems without level-shifting circuitry - confirmed in the General Description and Input/Output Characteristics sections of the Rev. F datasheet.
How does the power-down feature work on the ADA4891-3ARZ?
The ADA4891-3ARZ includes three dedicated power-down pins (PD1, PD2, PD3) - one per amplifier - with logic thresholds of 2.4 V (5 V supply) or 1.3 V (3 V supply). When asserted, each pin reduces its associated amplifier's quiescent current to 0.8 mA and disables output drive within 49 ns. This per-channel control is unique to the ADA4891-3/ADA4891-4 variants and is documented in the Power-Down Pins section of the Rev. F datasheet.
Can the ADA4891-3ARZ drive a 150 Ω load at 2 VPP with minimal distortion?
Yes, the ADA4891-3ARZ delivers 125 mA linear output current (1% THD at 1 MHz) and achieves −79 dBc SFDR at 1 MHz with 2 VPP output into 150 Ω. Its 0.05% differential gain and 0.25° phase error at 25 MHz further confirm suitability for broadcast-quality video driving - all verified under RL = 150 Ω test conditions in Tables 1 and 2 of the Rev. F datasheet.
What package type is used for the ADA4891-3ARZ?
The ADA4891-3ARZ uses a 14-lead SOIC_N (R-14) package with dimensions of 8.65 mm × 3.90 mm × 1.75 mm and an exposed pad for enhanced thermal performance. This package is explicitly listed in the Ordering Guide and Connection Diagrams (Figure 4) of the Rev. F datasheet, and is distinct from the TSSOP variant (ADA4891-3ARMZ) which shares identical electrical specifications but differs in thermal resistance and footprint.
