Product details
Overview
OP191GSZ from Analog Devices is a micropower, single-supply rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier in an 8-lead SOIC package. It operates from 2.7 V to 12 V, delivers 3 MHz gain bandwidth, 0.5 V/μs slew rate, and draws only 300 μA per amplifier. It enables precision signal conditioning in battery-powered instrumentation and low-voltage sensor interfaces where input/output swing to the rails is critical.
For engineers reviewing the OP191GSZ datasheet, OP191GSZ pinout, OP191GSZ application, or OP191GSZ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning for key specs, validated pin functions, application-specific implementation guidance, and two confirmed alternative op amps with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The OP191GSZ uses a dual-input-stage architecture-switching between PNP and NPN differential pairs-to achieve true rail-to-rail input operation across the full supply range (GND to VS), including 10 V beyond either rail without phase reversal or latch-up. Its output stage employs collector-connected PNP/NPN transistors to deliver millivolt-level output swing to both rails under load.
This architecture supports stable multistage filtering in single-supply systems and maintains high signal-to-noise ratio in low-voltage applications such as RTD amplifiers and DAC output buffers. The device is specified over –40°C to +125°C and fabricated on Analog Devices' CBCMOS process for robustness in industrial environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 12 V - Enables direct use with 3 V Li-ion, 5 V USB, or 9–12 V industrial rails without regulation. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 3 MHz - Supports stable unity-gain buffer or gain-of-10 configurations up to ~300 kHz with adequate phase margin. |
| Slew Rate | 0.5 V/μs - Sufficient for 12-bit DAC output settling (e.g., 4.096 V full-scale) within <20 μs at 10× gain. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 700 μV max (–40°C to +125°C) - Limits DC error to ≤0.017% of 4.096 V full-scale, suitable for 12-bit accuracy. |
| Supply Current per Amplifier | 300 μA typical at 3 V - Enables >1-year battery life in coin-cell–powered remote sensors drawing <10 μA average system current. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 10 mV of rails (RL = 100 kΩ) - Preserves dynamic range in 3 V systems where headroom is constrained. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | GND to VS - Accepts signals directly from resistive sensors (e.g., strain gages, thermistors) referenced to ground. |
Pinout & Package
OP191GSZ is housed in an 8-lead narrow-body SOIC (SOIC_N) package with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint (5.0 mm × 4.0 mm, 1.27 mm pitch). Pin 1 is marked with a dot or bevelled edge.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no routing or soldering required. |
| 2 | Inverting Input (–IN) | Differential input node; accepts signals up to VS + 10 V safely due to internal overvoltage protection. |
| 3 | Non-Inverting Input (+IN) | Differential input node; same overvoltage tolerance as Pin 2; used for reference or sensor inputs. |
| 4 | Negative Supply (GND) | Ground reference for single-supply operation; also serves as return path for input bias current. |
| 5 | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or via allowed. |
| 6 | Positive Supply (VS) | Primary power rail; supports 2.7–12 V; PSRR >80 dB ensures immunity to supply ripple. |
| 7 | Output (OUT) | Amplified output capable of sourcing/sinking ±8.75 mA; swings within 10 mV of VS and GND. |
| 8 | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no thermal pad or grounding required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input and output | Enables full utilization of 3 V supply in sensor front-ends and DAC buffers without level-shifting circuitry. |
| 300 μA supply current per amplifier | Reduces quiescent power to 0.9 mW at 3 V - critical for always-on IoT sensor nodes. |
| No phase reversal on overvoltage | Allows safe operation with inputs exceeding supply rails by up to 10 V - eliminates need for external clamping diodes. |
| Guaranteed operation from –40°C to +125°C | Validated for automotive under-hood, industrial motor control, and outdoor telecom equipment. |
| Input voltage range extends 10 V beyond supplies | Supports direct connection to transducers with wide common-mode excursions (e.g., Hall effect sensors). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rail-to-rail input/output op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AD8605ARTZ-REEL7 | Lower offset (65 μV typ), higher supply current (1 mA), 10 MHz GBW, same SOIC-8 package. | Better DC precision but higher power; unsuitable for ultra-low-power coin-cell designs. | Select AD8605 when offset drift and noise dominate over battery life; verify thermal dissipation at 1 mA. |
| TSV611ICT | Lower supply current (170 μA), narrower GBW (150 kHz), lower VOS (150 μV), same rail-to-rail I/O. | Insufficient bandwidth for DAC buffering above 10 kHz; better for slow-sensing only. | Choose TSV611 for sub-200 μA systems with <200 kHz signal bandwidth; avoid for active filters or fast DACs. |
Compared with OP191GSZ, AD8605 offers superior DC performance at 3.3× higher quiescent power, while TSV611 cuts current by 43% but sacrifices 95% of bandwidth - making OP191GSZ the balanced choice for 3–5 V battery-powered systems needing 3 MHz fidelity and rail-to-rail operation.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for OP191GSZ?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for OP191GSZ is 16 V, but the recommended operating range is 2.7 V to 12 V. Operation above 12 V risks exceeding internal junction temperature limits and degrading long-term reliability. All electrical specifications in the datasheet are guaranteed only within the 2.7–12 V range, and the device's micropower architecture is optimized for efficiency below 12 V.
Does OP191GSZ support true rail-to-rail input with a 3 V supply?
Yes, OP191GSZ supports true rail-to-rail input operation from GND to VS (0 V to 3 V) with a 3 V supply. Its unique dual-input-stage architecture ensures linear behavior across the entire common-mode range, including at the rails. This is confirmed in Figure 9 and Table 1 of the Rev. E datasheet, where input voltage range is explicitly specified as 0 V to 3 V at VS = 3 V.
Can OP191GSZ drive a 2 kΩ load while maintaining rail-to-rail output swing?
Yes, OP191GSZ can drive a 2 kΩ load with rail-to-rail output swing: at VS = 3 V, VOH ≥ 2.70 V and VOL ≤ 130 mV (–40°C to +125°C), delivering usable swing within 300 mV of both rails. At VS = 5 V, VOH ≥ 4.65 V and VOL ≤ 155 mV. These values are measured under load and reflect actual design margin for buffered DAC or sensor outputs.
Is OP191GSZ pin-compatible with other op amps in the OPx91 family?
No, OP191GSZ is not pin-compatible with OP291 or OP491. While all three share the same 8-lead SOIC package footprint, OP191GSZ has NC pins at positions 1, 5, and 8, whereas OP291 uses all eight pins for dual-amplifier functionality. Substituting OP191GSZ for OP291 would leave critical pins (e.g., OUTB, –INB, +INB) unconnected and nonfunctional.
What is the input bias current drift of OP191GSZ over temperature?
The input bias current drift of OP191GSZ is specified as ∆IB/∆T = 100 pA/°C (max) over –40°C to +125°C. This value is consistent across all supply voltages (3 V, 5 V, ±5 V) and appears in Tables 1–3 of the Rev. E datasheet. At 25°C, typical IB is 30 nA; at +125°C, it rises to ≤125 nA - a manageable shift for high-impedance sensor interfaces.
