Product details
Overview
NE5532DRG4 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 from ±5 V to ±15 V supplies in 0°C to 70°C industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the NE5532DRG4 datasheet, NE5532DRG4 pinout, NE5532DRG4 application, or NE5532DRG4 equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, SOIC-8 pin mapping, pro-audio and video infrastructure use cases, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and thermal differences.
Technical Context
The NE5532DRG4 integrates two internally compensated op-amps optimized for unity-gain stability and low-noise performance. Its bipolar input stage enables high DC gain (100 V/mV typ), wide common-mode input range (±12 V), and robust output short-circuit protection - all while maintaining 6 mA total supply current at ±15 V.
It supports dual-supply operation only, with dedicated VCC+ (Pin 8) and VCC– (Pin 4) rails. Input protection diodes and rail-to-rail output swing capability (±13 V min) allow reliable operation in demanding analog signal chains without external clamping or level-shifting circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Noise Voltage | 5 nV/√Hz @ 1 kHz - enables high-resolution audio amplification with minimal added noise floor |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 12 MHz typ - supports stable closed-loop gain ≥1 up to audio and video baseband frequencies |
| Slew Rate | 5 V/μs typ - preserves transient fidelity in fast-slewing signals like digital audio pulses or video sync edges |
| CMRR | 100 dB typ - rejects power supply ripple and shared interference in differential or single-ended configurations |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±5 V to ±15 V - compatible with legacy ±12 V and modern ±15 V analog subsystems |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - qualified for commercial and industrial embedded audio/video equipment |
| Total Supply Current | 6 mA typ @ ±15 V - balances performance and power efficiency in multi-channel designs |
Pinout & Package
NE5532DRG4 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm body size, RoHS-compliant, with NIPDAU lead finish and MSL Level-1 rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT1 | Output of first amplifier - drives loads up to ±13 V swing with 38 mA short-circuit current capability |
| 2 | 1IN– | Inverting input of first amplifier - accepts differential or single-ended feedback networks |
| 3 | 1IN+ | Noninverting input of first amplifier - high-impedance (30 kΩ min) node for sensor or line-level signal routing |
| 4 | VCC– | Negative supply rail - must be decoupled with 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
| 5 | 2IN+ | Noninverting input of second amplifier - electrically isolated from first channel for true dual operation |
| 6 | 2IN– | Inverting input of second amplifier - supports independent gain-setting resistors per channel |
| 7 | 2OUT | Output of second amplifier - identical AC/DC specs to OUT1, enabling stereo or dual-path signal processing |
| 8 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - requires local 0.1 μF bypass capacitor to suppress supply-induced distortion |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise architecture | Bipolar input stage achieves 5 nV/√Hz noise density - critical for microphone preamps and ADC drivers |
| Unity-gain stable | Internally compensated for stable operation at gain = 1 - eliminates need for external compensation components |
| High output drive | 38 mA short-circuit current and ±13 V output swing - drives 600 Ω loads directly without buffer stages |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NE5532DR | Same SOIC-8 package, identical electrical specs, but marked "N5532" instead of "N5532" with G4 suffix; RoHS-compliant, same MSL-1 rating | No functional difference - both rated for 0°C to +70°C, same noise, bandwidth, and drive capability | Select NE5532DRG4 when traceability to TI's G4-qualified production lot is required for quality assurance programs |
| SA5532DRG4 | Same SOIC-8 footprint and pinout, but extended temperature range (–40°C to +85°C); otherwise identical noise, bandwidth, and slew rate | Required for automotive infotainment head units or outdoor broadcast encoders operating beyond 70°C ambient | Choose SA5532DRG4 for designs needing guaranteed operation at –40°C or above +70°C, with no PCB layout change |

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for NE5532DRG4?
The NE5532DRG4 supports a maximum supply voltage of ±15 V per rail, with absolute maximum ratings of ±18 V. Operation beyond ±15 V risks exceeding thermal limits and degrading long-term reliability. The device is not rated for single-supply operation and requires symmetric dual rails for specified performance.
Does NE5532DRG4 require external compensation capacitors?
No, NE5532DRG4 is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external compensation capacitors. Its design allows stable closed-loop operation at gains ≥1 without added components, simplifying PCB layout and reducing bill-of-materials cost in audio and video signal paths.
What is the input bias current specification for NE5532DRG4?
The NE5532DRG4 has a typical input bias current of 200 nA at 25°C, with a maximum of 1000 nA across its full 0°C to +70°C operating range. This bipolar-input characteristic enables precise DC-coupled gain stages while maintaining compatibility with moderate-impedance source networks.
Can NE5532DRG4 drive 600 Ω loads effectively?
Yes, NE5532DRG4 delivers full ±10 V output swing into 600 Ω loads with less than 0.002% THD+N at 1 kHz, supported by its 38 mA short-circuit current rating and 5 V/μs slew rate. This makes it suitable for professional line-driving applications without additional output buffers.
Is NE5532DRG4 pin-compatible with other 5532 variants?
Yes, NE5532DRG4 shares identical SOIC-8 pinout and electrical behavior with NE5532DR, NE5532ADR, and SA5532DRG4. All variants use Pin 1 (OUT1), Pin 2 (1IN–), Pin 3 (1IN+), Pin 4 (VCC–), Pin 5 (2IN+), Pin 6 (2IN–), Pin 7 (2OUT), and Pin 8 (VCC+), enabling drop-in replacement within temperature-grade constraints.
