Product details
Overview
LMH6672MA/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a dual, high-speed, high-output-current voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for xDSL line driving. It delivers ±200 mA output current at 9.6 VPP single-ended into 25 Ω, achieves 90 MHz −3 dB bandwidth (G = +2), and maintains −105 dBc SFDR at 100 kHz with 8.4 VPP swing-enabling full-rate ADSL upstream compliance in PCI modem cards.
For engineers reviewing the LMH6672MA/NOPB datasheet, LMH6672MA/NOPB pinout, LMH6672MA/NOPB application, or LMH6672MA/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, SOIC-8 pin mapping, differential/line-driver use cases, thermal performance data, and two validated alternative op amps for xDSL and high-current analog signal paths.
Technical Context
The LMH6672MA/NOPB employs a Class AB output stage with 4.8 mA idle current per channel, enabling high-current drive while maintaining low distortion across 5 V to 12 V supplies. Its architecture supports stable operation at gains ≥ +2 V/V and delivers rail-to-rail output swing within 1 V of supply rails under load.
It features matched input bias currents (±16 µA max), 3.1 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and 1.8 pA/√Hz input current noise-critical for preserving SNR in broadband line drivers. Common-mode rejection exceeds 150 dB at DC and remains >75 dB up to 1 MHz, ensuring robustness against supply and coupling noise in noisy DSL environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| −3 dB Bandwidth | 90 MHz at G = +2: supports full-rate ADSL upstream signaling up to 1.1 MHz with ample gain margin. |
| Slew Rate | 135 V/µs: enables clean 4 V step response in ≤23.5 ns, critical for fast transient fidelity in line drivers. |
| Output Current | ±200 mA @ 9.6 VPP, RL = 25 Ω: drives transformer-coupled 50 Ω loads without clipping or thermal foldback. |
| Harmonic Distortion | −105 dBc 2nd HD @ 100 kHz, 8.4 VPP: meets ITU-T G.992.1 upstream spectral mask requirements. |
| Supply Range | ±2.5 V to ±6.5 V (5 V to 13 V total): compatible with standard PCI card 5 V and industrial 12 V rails. |
| Input Noise | 3.1 nV/√Hz + 1.8 pA/√Hz: low-noise front-end suitable for high-gain, wideband active filter stages. |
| Quiescent Current | 7.2 mA per amplifier: balances power efficiency with high-output capability in dual-channel designs. |
Pinout & Package
LMH6672MA/NOPB is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package (4.89 mm × 3.90 mm), optimized for automated assembly and thermal management on standard PCBs. The exposed pad variant (DDA) is not used in this part number.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT A) | Channel A output | High-current output node capable of ±200 mA sink/source; requires local 0.1 µF bypass to V− and V+. |
| 2 (−IN A) | Channel A inverting input | High-impedance node; connects to feedback network (e.g., Rf = 470 Ω) for precise gain setting. |
| 3 (+IN A) | Channel A non-inverting input | DC-biased reference point; common-mode range extends to within 1 V of rails for single-supply flexibility. |
| 4 (V−) | Negative supply | Ground or negative rail connection; must be decoupled with ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
| 5 (+IN B) | Channel B non-inverting input | Independent input for second channel; electrically isolated from Channel A except via shared supplies. |
| 6 (−IN B) | Channel B inverting input | Configurable for differential output mode when paired with Channel A (e.g., transformer-coupled line driver). |
| 7 (OUT B) | Channel B output | Matched output performance to OUT A; enables true dual-channel or complementary output configurations. |
| 8 (V+) | Positive supply | Primary power rail; supplies both amplifiers; thermal design must account for 172°C/W θJA. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual high-output-current channels | Each channel delivers ±200 mA into 25 Ω, enabling independent or interleaved line-driving topologies. |
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Swings to within 1 V of V+ and V− at full load, maximizing dynamic range in 5 V–12 V systems. |
| Low distortion at high frequency | −98 dBc SFDR @ 1 MHz, 2 VPP, RL = 100 Ω ensures clean DMT symbol transmission in xDSL. |
| Stable at G ≥ +2 V/V | No external compensation required for unity-gain stable alternatives; simplifies layout and reduces BOM count. |
| Wide supply range | Operates from ±2.5 V to ±6.5 V, supporting legacy 5 V and modern 12 V telecom power architectures. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6624MA/NOPB | Single-channel, 1.5 GHz GBW, lower output current (±100 mA), higher noise (4.3 nV/√Hz). | Better suited for pre-amplifier or IF gain stages than line driving; lacks dual-channel integration. | Select when ultra-wide bandwidth is prioritized over output drive and channel density. |
| THS3202D | Dual-channel, 1.8 GHz GBW, ±250 mA output, but higher quiescent current (12.5 mA/amp) and no SOIC option. | Requires SO PowerPAD or QFN layout; better for >100 MHz RF applications than DSL-compliant line driving. | Choose when >100 MHz small-signal bandwidth and higher output current justify thermal redesign. |
Compared with LMH6672MA/NOPB, LMH6624MA/NOPB trades dual-channel integration and output drive for bandwidth, while THS3202D offers higher speed and current at the cost of power efficiency and SOIC compatibility-making LMH6672MA/NOPB optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained xDSL line cards.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage swing of LMH6672MA/NOPB into a 25 Ω load?
The LMH6672MA/NOPB delivers ±4.8 V output swing into a 25 Ω load at ±6 V supply, achieving 9.6 VPP single-ended or 19.2 VPP differential. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table (Section 6.5) under VO, RL = 25 Ω, VS = ±6 V, and is sufficient for full-rate ADSL upstream compliance.
Is LMH6672MA/NOPB stable at unity gain?
No, LMH6672MA/NOPB is specified stable only for gains of +2 V/V or higher. The datasheet explicitly states "Stable for Gain of +2V/V or Higher" in Features and recommends minimum G = +2 to avoid peaking or oscillation. Unity-gain operation requires external compensation not validated by TI.
Does LMH6672MA/NOPB support single-supply operation?
Yes, LMH6672MA/NOPB operates from 5 V to 12 V total supply (e.g., V+ = 5 V, V− = 0 V), with input common-mode range extending to within 1 V of either rail and output swing to within 1 V of each supply. This is verified in Section 6.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) and Figure 1–5 (Output Swing curves).
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the LMH6672MA/NOPB SOIC package?
The LMH6672MA/NOPB in SOIC (D) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 172°C/W, as documented in Section 6.4 (Thermal Information). This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions and must be used with ambient temperature limits (≤85°C) to ensure junction temperature stays below 150°C.
Can LMH6672MA/NOPB drive a 50 Ω differential load directly?
Yes-when configured as a differential pair (e.g., Channel A and B with inverted feedback), LMH6672MA/NOPB drives 50 Ω loads to 16.8 VPP with −98 dBc distortion, as stated in the Description section and validated in Typical Performance Characteristics (Figure 20–24). No external current buffers are needed for ADSL-compliant line driving.
