Product details
Overview
LMH6629 MDC from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-noise, high-speed voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for wideband, low-distortion signal conditioning in precision analog front-ends. It delivers 0.69 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 900 MHz −3dB bandwidth (WSON-8, AV = 10), 1600 V/μs slew rate, and ±250 mA output drive - enabling use in ultrasound pre-amplifiers, transimpedance amplifiers, and base-station receiver chains.
For engineers reviewing the LMH6629 MDC datasheet, LMH6629 MDC pinout, LMH6629 MDC application, or LMH6629 MDC equivalent, key selection criteria include its selectable minimum gain (≥4 or ≥10 V/V via COMP pin), 75 ns enable time, shutdown capability (PD pin), and dual-package availability (WSON-8 and SOT-23-5) with distinct compensation schemes.
Technical Context
The LMH6629 MDC employs a proprietary SiGe process to achieve simultaneous high speed and ultra-low noise. Its internal compensation architecture allows user-selectable stability for minimum gains of 4 V/V (COMP = LO) or 10 V/V (COMP = HI) - eliminating external compensation capacitors required by competing amplifiers.
It supports single-supply operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, features rail-to-rail output swing within 0.8 V of rails, and maintains >70 dB CMRR across −0.3 V to 3.8 V input common-mode range - making it suitable for DC-coupled, high-dynamic-range systems where both AC fidelity and DC accuracy are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| −3dB Bandwidth | 900 MHz at AV = 10, VS = 5 V, WSON-8 package - enables RF IF amplification up to UHF bands without gain peaking. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 0.69 nV/√Hz - sets fundamental SNR floor for low-level sensor signals like photodiode or piezoelectric transducer outputs. |
| Slew Rate | 1600 V/μs - supports clean 2 VPP step response with <0.95 ns rise time, critical for pulse-based medical imaging. |
| Output Current | ±250 mA - drives heavy loads (e.g., 100 Ω terminated lines, active filters with low-impedance feedback) without clipping or thermal foldback. |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with modern low-voltage SoC interfaces and battery-powered portable instrumentation. |
| Enable Time | 75 ns - allows rapid power cycling in time-gated applications such as pulsed ultrasound transmit/receive switching. |
| HD2 / HD3 | −90 dBc / −94 dBc at 1 MHz, 2 VPP - ensures minimal harmonic contamination in wideband communication and spectral analysis systems. |
Pinout & Package
LMH6629 MDC is available in two packages: 5-pin SOT-23 (2.90 mm × 1.60 mm) and 8-pin WSON (3.00 mm × 3.00 mm). The WSON-8 variant includes dedicated COMP and PD pins for gain selection and shutdown; the SOT-23-5 integrates fixed compensation for AV ≥10 and omits PD functionality.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN+ | Non-inverting input | High-impedance node (450 kΩ common-mode RIN) accepting DC- or AC-coupled signals with −0.3 V to 3.8 V common-mode range. |
| IN− | Inverting input | Differential input node with 4 pF differential capacitance - requires careful PCB layout to minimize phase margin degradation. |
| OUT | Amplifier output | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±250 mA into 100 Ω loads while maintaining linearity and settling within 42 ns (±0.1%). |
| V+ | Positive supply | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V; decoupling with 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor near pin is mandatory for stability at >100 MHz. |
| V− | Negative supply / ground reference | Supports single-supply operation; output swings to within 0.8 V of V−, enabling true ground-referenced signal handling. |
| PD (WSON-8 only) | Power-down control | Active-low digital input; pulls supply current from 15.5 mA to 1.1 mA when asserted - essential for power-constrained portable systems. |
| COMP (WSON-8 only) | Compensation mode select | Logic-high selects AV ≥10 stable operation; logic-low enables AV ≥4 configuration - eliminates need for external compensation networks. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Selectable minimum gain | Configurable AV ≥4 or ≥10 via COMP pin - enables optimal bandwidth-noise trade-off without redesigning feedback network. |
| Ultra-low input voltage noise | 0.69 nV/√Hz at f > 1 MHz - preserves SNR in high-gain, low-signal applications like optical TIA stages. |
| Fast enable/disable | 75 ns enable / 80 ns disable timing - supports burst-mode operation in time-of-flight or gated echo detection systems. |
| Rail-to-rail output swing | 0.72 V to 4.28 V on 5 V supply - maximizes dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition without level-shifting circuitry. |
| High output drive capability | ±250 mA linear output current - directly drives ADC drivers, active filters, or coaxial cable terminations without buffer stages. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, low-noise op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6624MF/NOPB | Fixed AV ≥5, no COMP/PD pins; 1.4 GHz SSBW but higher 1.05 nV/√Hz noise. | Lacks shutdown and gain-selectability - suited for always-on, fixed-gain IF amplifiers. | Choose when maximum bandwidth is prioritized over noise and power control. |
| ADA4898-1ARZ | Lower 0.9 nV/√Hz noise, ±3.3 V supply only; no shutdown, 220 MHz bandwidth. | Optimized for precision DC-coupled instrumentation, not RF/ultrasound pulse response. | Prefer for high-resolution, low-drift sensor signal chains where speed < 250 MHz suffices. |
Compared with LMH6629 MDC, LMH6624MF/NOPB trades lower noise for higher bandwidth and no configurability, while ADA4898-1ARZ offers superior DC precision at significantly reduced speed - making LMH6629 MDC uniquely balanced for wideband, low-noise, power-aware applications.

FAQ
What is the minimum stable gain of LMH6629 MDC in WSON-8 package?
The LMH6629 MDC in WSON-8 package supports two selectable minimum stable gains: ≥4 V/V when the COMP pin is pulled low, and ≥10 V/V when COMP is high. This eliminates external compensation components and allows flexible bandwidth-noise optimization per design requirements - a feature not available in the SOT-23-5 variant, which is internally compensated for ≥10 V/V only.
Does LMH6629 MDC support true single-supply operation with ground-referenced inputs?
Yes, LMH6629 MDC supports true single-supply operation down to 2.7 V. Its input common-mode range extends to −0.3 V (below ground) and up to 3.8 V on a 5 V supply, and its output swings to within 0.8 V of each rail - enabling direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors and ADCs without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical supply current of LMH6629 MDC in normal and shutdown modes?
At TA = 25°C and VS = 5 V, LMH6629 MDC draws 15.5 mA in normal operation (PD pin high or open). When the PD pin is driven low, supply current drops to 1.1 mA - a 93% reduction that enables aggressive power gating in battery-powered or thermally constrained systems.
Can LMH6629 MDC drive a 100 Ω load while maintaining specified distortion performance?
Yes, LMH6629 MDC is characterized driving 100 Ω loads terminated to mid-supply (e.g., 2.5 V on 5 V). At AV = 10, VO = 2 VPP, and f = 1 MHz, it achieves HD2 = −90 dBc and HD3 = −94 dBc - confirming full-spec linearity under heavy loading, critical for driving ADC inputs or transmission lines without added buffers.
How does the noise performance of LMH6629 MDC compare between 5 V and 3.3 V supply operation?
The input voltage noise of LMH6629 MDC remains constant at 0.69 nV/√Hz regardless of supply voltage (tested at 3.3 V and 5 V). Input current noise is also unchanged at 2.6 pA/√Hz. This supply-independent noise floor ensures consistent SNR across portable (3.3 V) and mains-powered (5 V) system variants.
