Product details
Overview
LMH6683MAX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a triple, high-speed, single-supply voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for video signal conditioning. It delivers 190MHz −3dB bandwidth (A = +2, ±5V), 940V/μs slew rate, 0.01% differential gain error, and 0.08° differential phase error at NTSC 3.58MHz - enabling precision composite video amplification in portable and embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the LMH6683MAX/NOPB datasheet, LMH6683MAX/NOPB pinout, LMH6683MAX/NOPB application, or LMH6683MAX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include video-grade AC performance (DG/DP), rail-to-rail output swing capability (0.8V from rails into 2kΩ), input common-mode range extending 0.5V beyond V−, low distortion (−82dBc HD3 @5MHz), and immunity to output phase reversal under input overdrive.
Technical Context
The LMH6683MAX/NOPB employs a voltage-feedback topology with a class-AB input stage that delivers exponential transconductance versus input differential voltage - enabling higher slew rate at large signal amplitudes without saturation. This architecture supports stable operation at gains ≥+2 and ≤−1 while maintaining 190MHz bandwidth and <2ns rise time.
Its input stage operates down to 0.5V below V− and up to 1.7V from V+, and the output swings within 0.8V of either rail into 2kΩ. The device is fabricated in TI's VIP10 process, balancing speed (190MHz) and quiescent current (6.5mA per channel) for power-sensitive video front-ends.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| −3dB Bandwidth | 190MHz at A = +2 (±5V supply); enables full NTSC/PAL video bandwidth with margin |
| Slew Rate | 940V/μs (±5V, A = +2); supports fast transient response for sync pulses and sharp edges |
| Differential Gain Error | 0.01% (NTSC 3.58MHz, RL = 150Ω); preserves color saturation fidelity in analog video chains |
| Differential Phase Error | 0.08° (NTSC 3.58MHz, RL = 150Ω); maintains accurate hue reproduction across brightness levels |
| Supply Current per Channel | 6.5mA (typ., no load); allows triple-channel video buffering with low system power overhead |

| 4 | V− (GND for single supply) | Power return reference; supports input common-mode down to 0.5V below this pin |
| 5 | Inverting Input (Ch2) | Second amplifier's inverting input; electrically isolated from Ch1/Ch3 for crosstalk <−78dB @5MHz |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Video-optimized AC performance | 0.01% DG / 0.08° DP at NTSC 3.58MHz ensures broadcast-grade color fidelity in composite video paths |
| Phase reversal immunity | Outputs clamp at rail instead of inverting when inputs exceed common-mode range - eliminates need for external clamping in servo or video sync circuits |

| High output drive | +85/−80mA output current supports direct driving of 75Ω coaxial cables or multiple 150Ω video loads without buffers |
| Low distortion in inverting mode | −82dBc HD3 @5MHz (RL = 2kΩ) makes it suitable for ADC front-end buffering where linearity is critical |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6683MA/NOPB | Same die, SOIC-14 tube packaging (95 pcs); identical electrical specs and pinout | No difference in circuit design or layout; only packaging and reel/tube logistics differ | Select LMH6683MA/NOPB for low-volume prototyping or manual assembly; LMH6683MAX/NOPB for automated SMT production |
| LMH6629MA/NOPB | Higher bandwidth (1.5GHz), lower noise (2.9nV/√Hz), but higher supply current (12.5mA/ch) and no DG/DP characterization | Better suited for RF/IF amplification or ultra-low-noise preamps; lacks video-specific AC validation | Choose LMH6629MA/NOPB only when bandwidth/noise outweigh video fidelity requirements; not drop-in for NTSC/PAL systems |
Compared with LMH6683MA/NOPB, LMH6683MAX/NOPB offers identical performance in tape-and-reel format for volume manufacturing, while LMH6629MA/NOPB trades video-optimized linearity for raw speed and noise - making it unsuitable as a direct replacement in broadcast-grade video signal paths.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for LMH6683MAX/NOPB?
The LMH6683MAX/NOPB supports a total supply voltage range of 3V to 12V (V+ − V−). Absolute maximum rating is 12.6V; operation above this risks permanent damage. For ±5V split-supply use, V+ = +5V and V− = −5V yields optimal 190MHz bandwidth and 940V/μs slew rate - as specified in the official SNOSA43A datasheet.
Does LMH6683MAX/NOPB support single-supply operation with ground-referenced inputs?
Yes, LMH6683MAX/NOPB supports true single-supply operation: its input common-mode voltage range extends 0.5V below V− (i.e., to −0.5V when V− = 0V), allowing direct connection of ground-referenced video signals. Output swings to within 0.8V of either rail into 2kΩ, delivering usable dynamic range on 3.3V or 5V supplies without level-shifting circuitry.
Is LMH6683MAX/NOPB pin-compatible with other triple op-amps like LM358 or TL074?
No, LMH6683MAX/NOPB is not pin-compatible with LM358 or TL074. It uses a 14-pin SOIC package with dedicated pins for three independent op-amps (including separate inverting/non-inverting inputs per channel), whereas LM358 (SOIC-8) and TL074 (SOIC-14) follow different pinouts and lack video-optimized AC specs. Direct substitution requires PCB redesign.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of LMH6683MAX/NOPB in SOIC-14 package?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) for LMH6683MAX/NOPB in SOIC-14 package is 145°C/W, as specified in the Operating Ratings table of SNOSA43A. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board mounting; actual thermal performance improves with copper pour, thermal vias, or reduced ambient temperature.
Can LMH6683MAX/NOPB drive a 75Ω video load directly?
Yes, LMH6683MAX/NOPB can drive a 75Ω load directly: it delivers ±85/−80mA output current and maintains 0.01% differential gain at NTSC 3.58MHz into 150Ω. While 75Ω increases current demand, the device sustains full video bandwidth and low distortion - verified in TI's application notes and typical performance curves (Figures 14, 35–36).
