Product details
Overview
LM6171BIM/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a high-speed, unity-gain-stable voltage-feedback amplifier optimized for video and precision analog signal processing. It delivers 3600 V/μs slew rate, 100 MHz unity-gain bandwidth (±15 V), 110 dB CMRR, 2.5 mA supply current, and operates from ±5 V to ±15 V supplies - enabling high-fidelity NTSC/PAL line driving and ADC/DAC buffering.
For engineers reviewing the LM6171BIM/NOPB datasheet, LM6171BIM/NOPB pinout, LM6171BIM/NOPB application, or LM6171BIM/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, real-world video and instrumentation use cases, thermal and stability data under ±5 V/±15 V operation, and validated alternative options for high-speed buffer and driver designs.
Technical Context
The LM6171BIM/NOPB uses a voltage-feedback architecture with internal compensation for unity-gain stability. Its high slew rate and wide bandwidth stem from optimized transconductance and low-output-impedance output stage, supporting fast settling (48 ns, 0.1%) and low distortion (0.03% differential gain) at 3.58 MHz.
It features rail-to-rail input common-mode range (±13.5 V on ±15 V supplies), high open-loop gain (90 dB), and robust PSRR (95 dB) - making it suitable for mixed-signal systems where noise immunity and dynamic range are critical in ADC front-end and HDTV amplifier stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Slew Rate | 3600 V/μs (enables clean 1080p video pulse response without slewing distortion) |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 100 MHz (±15 V) - supports >75 MHz baseband video signals with minimal phase lag |
| Supply Current | 2.5 mA (low power enables multi-channel video amplification without thermal overload) |
| CMRR | 110 dB (rejects common-mode noise in noisy industrial or broadcast environments) |
| Input Offset Voltage | 6 mV max (–40°C to +85°C) - ensures DC accuracy in active filter and instrumentation amplifier topologies |
| Output Drive | ±116 mA continuous (RL = 100 Ω, ±15 V) - drives 75-Ω video lines and heavy capacitive loads directly |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.03%/0.5° (NTSC @ 3.58 MHz) - meets broadcast-grade color fidelity requirements |
Pinout & Package
LM6171BIM/NOPB is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), 4.9 mm × 6 mm body size, surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles.

| 3 (+IN) | Non-Inverting Input | Differential input node; same impedance and bias specs as –IN |
| 4 (V–) | Negative Supply | Accepts –5 V to –15 V; supports rail-to-rail input swing down to V– – 0.3 V |
| 6 (OUTPUT) | Amplifier Output | Capable of ±13.3 V swing into 1 kΩ (±15 V); low 14 Ω open-loop output resistance |
| 7 (V+) | Positive Supply | Accepts +5 V to +15 V; enables large-signal headroom up to V+ – 1.7 V |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed voltage-feedback amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM6172IM/NOPB | Dual-channel version; identical AC specs but higher supply current (5.0 mA per channel) | Better suited for dual-path video (e.g., Y/C separation) or stereo audio; not pin-compatible | Select when dual amplification is required and board space allows SOIC-8 dual footprint |
| THS3091D | Current-feedback architecture; 2100 V/μs slew rate, 200 MHz bandwidth, higher supply current (6.5 mA) | Superior for very high-frequency (>100 MHz) applications but requires careful feedback network design | Prefer for RF IF amplification or ultra-fast pulse shaping where CFA stability margins are acceptable |
Compared with LM6172IM/NOPB and THS3091D, the LM6171BIM/NOPB offers optimal balance of speed, power efficiency, and ease of use in single-channel video and precision analog systems - especially where unity-gain stability and low distortion at broadcast frequencies are mandatory.

FAQ
What supply voltages does the LM6171BIM/NOPB support?
The LM6171BIM/NOPB is fully specified for operation from ±5 V to ±15 V dual supplies. At ±5 V, it delivers 750 V/μs slew rate and 70 MHz unity-gain bandwidth; at ±15 V, it achieves 3600 V/μs and 100 MHz. The device maintains functionality across the full ±5.5 V to ±17 V absolute maximum range, with thermal derating above 85°C ambient.
Is the LM6171BIM/NOPB unity-gain stable?
Yes, the LM6171BIM/NOPB is internally compensated for unity-gain stability. It remains stable with closed-loop gains of +1, –1, and higher without external compensation components - a key advantage over many decompensated high-speed op-amps that require minimum gain ≥ +2 or +5.
What is the differential gain and phase performance of the LM6171BIM/NOPB for video applications?
The LM6171BIM/NOPB achieves 0.03% differential gain and 0.5° differential phase error at 3.58 MHz under AV = +2, 75-Ω terminated conditions - meeting or exceeding NTSC and PAL broadcast standards. This performance is guaranteed across temperature (–40°C to +85°C) and supply voltage (±5 V to ±15 V).
Can the LM6171BIM/NOPB drive 75-Ω video cables directly?
Yes, the LM6171BIM/NOPB can drive 75-Ω video loads directly. With ±116 mA continuous output current (±15 V, RL = 100 Ω) and ±13.3 V output swing (1 kΩ), it comfortably sources/sinks the 140 mA peak required for 1 VPP into 75 Ω. Layout best practices include local 0.1 μF bypassing and controlled-impedance trace routing.
How does the LM6171BIM/NOPB compare to the LM6171AIM/NOPB variant?
The LM6171BIM/NOPB has looser initial offset voltage (6 mV max vs 3 mV for 'A') and lower phase margin (40° vs 58°), resulting in longer 0.1% settling time (48 ns vs 21 ns). However, both share identical slew rate (3600 V/μs), bandwidth (100 MHz), and distortion specs. The 'B' grade is cost-optimized for applications where ultimate DC precision is secondary to speed and linearity.
