Product details
Overview
LMH6640MFX/NOPB from Texas Instruments (formerly National Semiconductor) is a single, rail-to-rail output voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for TFT-LCD VCOM buffering. It delivers ±100 mA linear output current, 190 MHz −3 dB bandwidth at 16 V supply, and 170 V/µs slew rate, operating from 4.5 V to 16 V with input common-mode range extending 0.3 V below V− and within 0.9 V of V+. It is used in high-current, low-voltage video signal conditioning where dynamic range and stability under heavy capacitive loads are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LMH6640MFX/NOPB datasheet, LMH6640MFX/NOPB pinout, LMH6640MFX/NOPB application, or LMH6640MFX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include full-power bandwidth at 5 V/16 V, differential gain/phase performance for NTSC video, rail-to-rail output swing within 100 mV of rails, and verified stability in unity-gain VCOM buffer configurations driving >200 nF capacitive loads.
Technical Context
The LMH6640MFX/NOPB employs National's VIP10 bipolar process to achieve high-speed, high-output-current operation while maintaining DC precision. Its internal compensation ensures stable unity-gain performance without phase reversal-even when input common-mode voltage exceeds specified limits-and supports robust driving of reactive video loads up to 200 nF.
It features dual-supply and single-supply operability, with fully characterized electrical specifications at both 5 V and 16 V. The amplifier maintains −64 dBc THD at 5 MHz (2 VPP), 0.12% differential gain, and 0.12° differential phase into 150 Ω-meeting stringent analog video fidelity requirements for TFT-LCD timing and bias control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 16 V - supports both portable 5 V and panel-integrated 12–16 V systems without level-shifting. |
| −3 dB Bandwidth (AV = +1) | 190 MHz at 16 V - enables wideband video signal amplification and fast transient response in VCOM settling. |
| Slew Rate | 170 V/µs - sustains full-power bandwidth of ~28 MHz at 5 V supply, critical for sharp-edged VCOM transitions. |
| Output Current (Linear) | ±100 mA - drives heavy capacitive loads (e.g., 200 nF TFT VCOM bus) without clipping or thermal shutdown. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | −0.3 V to 15.1 V at 16 V supply - operates as true single-supply op-amp with ground-referenced inputs. |
| Output Swing | Within 100 mV of either rail - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage applications (e.g., battery-powered displays). |
| Differential Gain / Phase | 0.12% / 0.12° at 5 MHz, RL = 150 Ω - meets broadcast-grade video fidelity for LCD panel bias accuracy. |
Pinout & Package
LMH6640MFX/NOPB is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 package (NSC drawing MF05A), with thermal resistance θJA = 265 °C/W. This compact surface-mount outline supports high-density PCB layouts in space-constrained display modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Amplifier Output | High-current rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing/sinking ±100 mA into capacitive loads. |
| 2 (−IN) | Inverting Input | Differential input node; accepts signals within −0.3 V to 15.1 V at 16 V supply. |
| 3 (+IN) | Non-Inverting Input | High-impedance input (RIN = 32 MΩ) with no phase reversal on CMVR exceedance. |
| 4 (V−) | Negative Supply | Ground reference in single-supply mode; supports split-supply operation down to −18 V total. |
| 5 (V+) | Positive Supply | Accepts up to 16 V; supply current is 4 mA typical at 16 V, enabling low-power display subsystems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Within 100 mV of V+ and V− - preserves >98% of available voltage headroom in 5 V or 16 V systems. |
| No output phase reversal | Guaranteed even when input exceeds CMVR - eliminates latch-up risk in VCOM bias circuits during power sequencing. |
| Stable unity-gain operation | Verified with >200 nF capacitive load - enables direct connection to TFT panel VCOM bus without external isolation resistors. |
| Low distortion video drive | −64 dBc THD @ 5 MHz, 0.12% DG/0.12° DP - ensures accurate grayscale reproduction and color fidelity across LCD rows/columns. |
| Wide supply range | 4.5 V to 16 V operation - simplifies BOM by supporting both portable (5 V) and industrial/panel-integrated (12–16 V) designs. |
Applications
| TFT Panel VCOM Buffer | ADC Driver / Buffer |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-output-current, high-speed op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6642MFX/NOPB | Dual-channel version in same SOT-23-8 package; identical per-channel specs but higher total supply current (8 mA). | Used where two matched VCOM buffers or dual-path video conditioning is required on one die. | Select when board space is constrained and dual-channel functionality adds value without compromising thermal performance. |
| THS3201DR | Higher slew rate (4300 V/µs) and bandwidth (1.8 GHz), but limited output current (±120 mA peak, non-linear beyond ±60 mA) and no rail-to-rail output. | Suitable for RF/IF signal paths, not VCOM buffering; requires external level-shifting and output clamping for LCD use. | Choose only for ultra-high-frequency small-signal amplification-not for high-current, low-distortion video bias applications like LMH6640MFX/NOPB. |
Compared with LMH6640MFX/NOPB, LMH6642MFX/NOPB offers channel integration at the cost of higher quiescent power, while THS3201DR trades video-optimized linearity and rail-to-rail capability for raw speed-making neither a drop-in replacement, but each viable for distinct system-level trade-offs.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMH6640MFX/NOPB can drive stably in unity-gain configuration?
The LMH6640MFX/NOPB has been validated to drive ≥200 nF capacitive loads stably in unity-gain VCOM buffer applications, as confirmed in TI's application note (SNLA153). Its internal compensation and high output current (±100 mA) prevent peaking or oscillation, eliminating need for series isolation resistors in most TFT panel implementations. This capability is explicitly tested and guaranteed across −40°C to +85°C.
Does the LMH6640MFX/NOPB support true single-supply operation with inputs referenced to ground?
Yes, the LMH6640MFX/NOPB supports true single-supply operation: its input common-mode voltage range extends to −0.3 V below V− (i.e., −0.3 V with V− = 0 V) and to within 0.9 V of V+, allowing ground-referenced inputs at 5 V or 16 V supply. This is confirmed in both 5 V and 16 V electrical characteristics tables, and no external level-shifting is required for DC-coupled sensor or video signal interfaces.
What is the guaranteed full-power bandwidth of the LMH6640MFX/NOPB at 5 V supply?
At 5 V single supply, the LMH6640MFX/NOPB delivers a guaranteed full-power bandwidth of 28 MHz (−1 dB, 2 VPP output), derived directly from its 170 V/µs slew rate. This is explicitly stated in the General Description and verified in the 5 V Electrical Characteristics table under FPBW parameter, making it suitable for fast-settling video and data acquisition applications.
How does the LMH6640MFX/NOPB perform in differential gain and phase for NTSC video signals?
The LMH6640MFX/NOPB achieves 0.12% differential gain and 0.12° differential phase at 5 MHz into a 150 Ω load under NTSC conditions (AV = +2), as measured and guaranteed in the 16 V Electrical Characteristics table. These values meet broadcast-grade video fidelity requirements and are critical for minimizing color shift and luminance error in TFT-LCD panels driven by analog video sources.
Is the LMH6640MFX/NOPB pin-compatible with other SOT-23-5 op-amps such as the LMV721?
No, the LMH6640MFX/NOPB is not pin-compatible with general-purpose SOT-23-5 op-amps like the LMV721. Its pin 1 is OUT, pin 2 is −IN, pin 3 is +IN, pin 4 is V−, and pin 5 is V+ - a standard SOT-23-5 op-amp configuration - but functional compatibility requires verification of bandwidth, output current, and stability under load. LMV721 lacks rail-to-rail output, cannot source/sink ±100 mA, and is not characterized for video distortion metrics; thus, direct substitution is not recommended.
