Product details
Overview
NE5532APG4 from Texas Instruments is a dual low-noise operational amplifier designed for high-fidelity audio signal conditioning and precision analog front-ends. It delivers 5 nV/√Hz input noise voltage at 1 kHz, 12 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 100 dB common-mode rejection ratio, 5 V/μs slew rate, and operates over 0°C to 70°C with ±5 V to ±15 V dual supply. It is widely used in pro audio mixers and AV receivers where low distortion and wide dynamic range are critical.
For engineers reviewing the NE5532APG4 datasheet, NE5532APG4 pinout, NE5532APG4 application, or NE5532APG4 equivalent, key selection considerations include its specified noise performance at audio frequencies, guaranteed DC accuracy (4 mV max input offset), thermal stability across commercial temperature range, and compatibility with standard 8-pin PDIP layout and routing practices.
Technical Context
The NE5532APG4 integrates two internally compensated op-amps optimized for unity-gain stability, featuring input protection diodes and output short-circuit protection. Its architecture supports rail-to-rail input common-mode range (±13 V) and delivers ±10 V output swing into 600 Ω loads under ±15 V supplies.
It exhibits low distortion (<0.002% THD+N at 1 kHz), high open-loop gain (100 V/mV typ), and robust ESD tolerance (1000 V HBM). The device is not rail-to-rail output but achieves >12 Vpp swing into 2 kΩ, making it suitable for line-level audio buffering and active filtering stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Noise Voltage | 5 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - enables high-SNR audio amplification without degrading source signal integrity |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 12 MHz typ - supports stable closed-loop operation up to 20 kHz with ≥60° phase margin in audio filters |
| Slew Rate | 5 V/μs typ - prevents slew-induced distortion on transients up to ~800 kHz at full output swing |
| CMRR | 100 dB typ - rejects power-supply and ground-borne interference in unbalanced audio interconnects |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±5 V to ±15 V - compatible with legacy ±12 V and modern ±15 V analog rails without level-shifting |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to 70°C - qualified for commercial-grade audio equipment and embedded media systems |
| Input Offset Voltage | 4 mV max at 25°C - minimizes DC error in DC-coupled gain stages and active crossover networks |
Pinout & Package
NE5532APG4 is supplied in an 8-pin PDIP package (9.81 mm × 6.35 mm), through-hole mountable with standard 0.3-inch DIP footprint. Pin spacing is 0.1 inch (2.54 mm), compatible with prototyping boards and wave-soldered PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT1 | Output of first op-amp - drives external load or next stage; requires local 0.1 μF bypass to ground |
| 2 | 1IN– | Inverting input of first op-amp - connects to feedback network; sensitive to stray capacitance |
| 3 | 1IN+ | Noninverting input of first op-amp - high-impedance node; must be shielded from digital noise |
| 4 | VCC– | Negative supply rail - shared return path for both amplifiers; separate ground plane recommended |
| 5 | 2IN+ | Noninverting input of second op-amp - independent signal path; enables dual-channel processing |
| 6 | 2IN– | Inverting input of second op-amp - used for inverting gain configuration or summing junction |
| 7 | 2OUT | Output of second op-amp - electrically isolated from OUT1; supports stereo or differential outputs |
| 8 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - decoupled with 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor placed <2 mm from pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Input Noise | 5 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves dynamic range in microphone preamps and phono stages |
| High Slew Rate | 5 V/μs - maintains transient fidelity in wideband active crossovers and equalizers |
| Internal Unity-Gain Compensation | Stable at Av = 1 without external compensation - simplifies design of buffers and followers |
| Output Short-Circuit Protection | Unlimited duration - prevents latch-up during speaker cable faults or accidental shorts |
| Input Protection Diodes | Clamp inputs to rails - protects against ESD and overvoltage transients in exposed I/O interfaces |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| NE5532DR | Same electrical specs; SOIC-8 package, surface-mount, 2500-reel tape-and-reel | Requires reflow soldering and PCB redesign; better for automated assembly and space-constrained layouts | Select NE5532DR when migrating from through-hole to SMT production or upgrading to higher-density board designs. |
| SA5532AP | Identical pinout and AC specs; extended temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) | Validated for industrial environments (e.g., broadcast infrastructure, automotive infotainment back-end) | Choose SA5532AP when operating outside 0°C–70°C or requiring AEC-Q200-aligned reliability screening. |
Compared with NE5532APG4, NE5532DR offers identical performance in a smaller SOIC package ideal for volume manufacturing, while SA5532AP extends thermal capability for harsher environments-neither is pin-compatible with NE5532APG4's PDIP footprint, requiring mechanical redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for NE5532APG4?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for NE5532APG4 is ±18 V, but the recommended operating range is ±5 V to ±15 V. Operation beyond ±15 V increases power dissipation and may reduce long-term reliability. The device is rated for continuous operation at ±15 V with full specification compliance across 0°C to 70°C ambient temperature.
Does NE5532APG4 require external compensation capacitors?
No, NE5532APG4 is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external compensation capacitors. It remains stable with closed-loop gains ≥1 across all load conditions within datasheet limits. External compensation is unnecessary unless implementing specialized high-gain (>100) or capacitive-load-tolerant configurations.
Can NE5532APG4 operate from a single supply?
Yes, NE5532APG4 can operate from a single supply by biasing both inputs and outputs to mid-rail (e.g., VCC/2), though its input common-mode range extends only to within ~2 V of each rail. For true single-supply applications requiring rail-to-rail input, consider alternatives like TLV2772 or OPA2350 - NE5532APG4 is optimized for dual-supply audio systems.
What is the typical input bias current of NE5532APG4?
The typical input bias current of NE5532APG4 is 200 nA at 25°C, with a maximum of 1000 nA across the full 0°C to 70°C operating range. This bipolar-input architecture yields higher bias current than FET-input op-amps but enables lower voltage noise and superior slew rate for audio applications.
Is NE5532APG4 RoHS compliant?
Yes, NE5532APG4 is RoHS compliant, with lead finish specified as NiPdAu (nickel-palladium-gold) per TI's packaging documentation. It meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements and carries no exemptions. The PDIP package uses matte tin plating over copper leadframe, fully compliant with JEDEC J-STD-609A Class 1.
