Product details
Overview
MC33078YDT from STMicroelectronics is an automotive-grade dual low-noise operational amplifier in SO-8 package, delivering 4.5 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 15 MHz gain bandwidth product, and 7 V/µs slew rate. It operates over ±2.5 V to ±15 V supply and supports rail-to-rail output swing up to ±14.6 V into 10 kΩ, making it suitable for high-fidelity audio preamplification and sensor signal conditioning in vehicle infotainment and body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the MC33078YDT datasheet, MC33078YDT pinout, MC33078YDT application, or MC33078YDT equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, validated SO-8 terminal mapping, confirmed automotive qualification (AEC-Q100), and direct functional alternatives with documented parameter divergence.
Technical Context
The MC33078YDT integrates two independent high-slew-rate op-amps with matched internal compensation, enabling stable unity-gain operation without external capacitors. Its bipolar input stage delivers low input bias current (250–800 nA) and low offset drift (2 µV/°C), while the symmetrical output stage sustains ±29 mA source and ±37 mA sink capability.
Designed for wide-supply flexibility, it maintains 120 dB channel separation at 20 Hz–20 kHz and achieves 0.002% THD at 3 VRMS, supported by 100 dB CMRR and 105 dB SVR across ±5 V to ±15 V supplies. The device includes ESD protection rated at 2 kV HBM and meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40 °C to +125 °C) requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 15 MHz typical - enables stable closed-loop operation up to 100 kHz at unity gain with minimal phase loss. |
| Slew Rate | 7 V/µs typical - supports full-scale 20 VPP output at ≥100 kHz without slewing distortion. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 4.5 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves SNR in microphone preamps and precision transducer interfaces. |
| Total Harmonic Distortion | 0.002% at 20 Hz–20 kHz - meets Hi-Fi audio line-level amplification requirements. |
| Output Voltage Swing | ±14.3 V / ±14.6 V (min/max) into 10 kΩ - delivers >28 VPP dynamic range from ±15 V rails. |
| Common-Mode Rejection | 100 dB typical - rejects power supply ripple and coupled noise in single-ended sensor front-ends. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±2.5 V to ±15 V - accommodates legacy 12 V automotive systems and modern low-voltage ECUs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-noise op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL072CDR | Higher input voltage noise (18 nV/√Hz), lower slew rate (13 V/µs), no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Not suitable for automotive sensor front-ends requiring <5 nV/√Hz noise floor. | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where noise is secondary to bandwidth. |
| NE5532DR | Lower input offset voltage (0.5 mV typ vs. 2 mV), higher quiescent current (8 mA vs. 5 mA), same noise (5 nV/√Hz). | Preferred in studio audio where ultra-low offset matters more than supply current. | Choose when offset-critical DC-coupled applications outweigh automotive qualification needs. |
Compared with MC33078YDT, TL072CDR trades noise performance for cost and speed, while NE5532DR improves DC accuracy at the expense of power efficiency and automotive compliance-making MC33078YDT the optimal choice for noise-sensitive, temperature-stable, automotive-qualified dual amplification.

FAQ
Is MC33078YDT pin-compatible with standard SO-8 dual op-amps like LM358 or TL072?
Yes, MC33078YDT uses the industry-standard SO-8 pinout: Pin 1 (−IN1), Pin 2 (+IN1), Pin 3 (OUT1), Pin 4 (V+), Pin 5 (V−), Pin 6 (−IN2), Pin 7 (+IN2), Pin 8 (OUT2). This allows drop-in replacement in layouts designed for LM358 or TL072, though electrical performance differs significantly-especially in noise, slew rate, and supply range.
What is the maximum load capacitance MC33078YDT can drive without instability?
MC33078YDT remains stable with up to 100 pF capacitive load when driving a 2 kΩ resistor, as verified in the datasheet's Figure 8 (gain/phase vs. frequency). For loads exceeding 100 pF, a series isolation resistor (≥10 Ω) between output and capacitor is required to maintain ≥30° phase margin per channel.
Does MC33078YDT support single-supply operation?
No-MC33078YDT is a dual-supply op-amp requiring symmetric or asymmetric split rails (e.g., +12 V / −12 V or +5 V / −15 V). Its input common-mode range extends to ±14 V and output swing to ±14.6 V, but it lacks rail-to-rail input or output architecture needed for true single-supply use below ±2.5 V.
How does the AEC-Q100 qualification of MC33078YDT differ from the commercial-grade MC33078DT?
MC33078YDT undergoes additional stress testing-including extended temperature cycling (−40 °C to +125 °C), high-temperature operating life (1000 hrs at +125 °C), and ESD validation per AEC-Q100 Rev G-while MC33078DT is qualified only to commercial temperature range (0 °C to +70 °C) and lacks automotive screening. Both share identical electrical specs and SO-8 packaging.
