Product details
Overview
OP284EPZ from Analog Devices is a dual-channel, precision rail-to-rail input and output operational amplifier optimized for single-supply instrumentation. It delivers 4 MHz gain bandwidth, 3.9 nV/√Hz voltage noise density, and 65 μV typical input offset voltage (E grade), operating from 3 V to 36 V (±1.5 V to ±18 V). It is widely deployed in DAC output amplification, ADC input buffering, and battery-powered sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the OP284EPZ datasheet, OP284EPZ pinout, OP284EPZ application, or OP284EPZ equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, thermal performance data, rail-to-rail interface behavior, and real-world design guidance for low-noise, wide-temperature industrial systems.
Technical Context
The OP284EPZ employs a composite input stage with concurrent NPN and PNP differential pairs enabling true rail-to-rail common-mode input range (0 V to VS) and output swing within 125 mV of either rail at 1 mA load. Its folded-cascade second-stage architecture supports unity-gain stability while delivering 4.0 V/μs slew rate and 240 V/mV large-signal voltage gain (typical).
Designed for hot extended industrial operation (−40°C to +125°C), the device features internal input overvoltage protection clamping (±0.6 V differential limit) and exhibits CMRR ≥86 dB over 1.0 V–4.0 V common-mode range. Output short-circuit current is internally limited to ±20 mA, with thermal shutdown protection enabled via junction temperature monitoring.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 36 V (or ±1.5 V to ±18 V); enables direct integration into 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V, and 24 V industrial power domains without level-shifting. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 4.25 MHz (typ. at ±15 V); supports stable closed-loop gain configurations up to 10× at 400 kHz with <0.1% distortion. |
| Input Offset Voltage (E Grade) | 65 μV (typ. at 25°C, 5 V supply); ensures ≤1 LSB error in 16-bit ADC front-ends with full-scale ranges down to 4 V. |
| Voltage Noise Density | 3.9 nV/√Hz (at 1 kHz); maintains SNR >90 dB in 20 kHz audio-band sensor interfaces with 10 kΩ source impedance. |
| Output Swing (1 mA load) | Within 125 mV of V− and 200 mV of V+ (at 5 V supply); allows full 0–5 V dynamic range utilization in single-supply microcontroller analog I/O stages. |
| Common-Mode Rejection Ratio | 86 dB (min. over −40°C to +125°C, 1.0–4.0 V VCM); rejects power rail ripple and ground bounce in noisy embedded control environments. |
| Slew Rate | 4.0 V/μs (typ. at ±15 V); supports clean 10 VPP sinusoidal output at 100 kHz without slewing-induced distortion. |
Pinout & Package
OP284EPZ is housed in an 8-lead PDIP package (P-suffix), with lead pitch 0.100″ and body dimensions 0.355″ × 0.375″. The package is through-hole mountable and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OUT A | Amplifier A output | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±6.5 mA; rail-to-rail swing with 125 mV headroom to V− and 200 mV to V+ at 5 V supply. |
| 2 - −IN A | Inverting input A | Part of NPN/PNP composite input pair; bias current polarity reverses across common-mode range-requires matched source impedances. |
| 3 - +IN A | Non-inverting input A | Same input structure as Pin 2; differential input voltage must be limited to ±0.6 V to avoid junction avalanche. |
| 4 - V+ | Positive supply rail | Accepts 3–36 V (single) or +1.5–+18 V (dual); PSRR = 76 dB (min.) over full temperature range. |
| 5 - V− | Negative supply rail / GND reference | May be connected to ground (single-supply) or negative rail (dual-supply); input common-mode extends to V−. |
| 6 - +IN B | Non-inverting input B | Independent channel B input; identical electrical characteristics to Pin 3; no crosstalk above −140 dB at 1 kHz. |
| 7 - −IN B | Inverting input B | Independent channel B input; same bias current behavior as Pin 2; requires separate impedance matching. |
| 8 - OUT B | Amplifier B output | Electrically isolated from OUT A; shares same output stage architecture and drive capability. |

Use Value: 4.0 V/μs slew rate and 4.25 MHz GBW ensure glitch-free step response for 100 Hz update-rate industrial DACs. |
| ADC Input Buffer | Power Supply Control & Protection |
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-output-impedance voltage follower isolating ADC sample capacitor from high-impedance sensor sources.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP2177ARZ | Lower offset (25 μV typ.), lower noise (2.9 nV/√Hz), but only 1.3 MHz GBW and not rail-to-rail output. | Preferred for ultra-precision DC measurements where bandwidth <1 MHz suffices; unsuitable for rail-to-rail output swing needs. | Select OP2177ARZ when offset drift and long-term stability dominate; choose OP284EPZ when AC performance and full-rail swing are required. |
| AD8676ARZ | Higher precision (12 μV offset), wider GBW (10 MHz), but higher supply current (2.3 mA/amplifier) and no rail-to-rail input. | Better for high-speed, high-accuracy closed-loop filters; cannot accept input signals near V− or V+ without clipping. | Choose AD8676ARZ for 10 MHz signal chain stages with tight DC specs; retain OP284EPZ for single-supply sensor interfaces demanding true rail-to-rail operation. |
Compared with OP2177ARZ and AD8676ARZ, OP284EPZ uniquely balances rail-to-rail I/O, 4 MHz bandwidth, and 65 μV offset in a single 8-pin PDIP package-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained industrial analog front-ends where supply headroom is limited.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for OP284EPZ?
The OP284EPZ is specified for continuous operation from −40°C to +125°C, meeting the hot extended industrial temperature grade. This rating applies to both E-grade and F-grade variants and is validated per Analog Devices' qualification standards for PDIP packaging. The device maintains all key parameters-including offset voltage, CMRR, and slew rate-within datasheet limits across this full range, making OP284EPZ suitable for under-hood automotive sensors and industrial motor control enclosures.
Does OP284EPZ support true rail-to-rail input with a 3 V supply?
Yes, OP284EPZ supports true rail-to-rail input common-mode range from V− to V+ across its entire supply range, including 3 V operation. At VS = 3 V, the input voltage range is 0 V to 3 V (Table 3), and the device maintains CMRR ≥56 dB over that span. This enables direct interfacing with resistive sensors, Hall effect devices, and other transducers whose outputs swing fully between ground and supply-without external level-shifting circuitry.
Can OP284EPZ drive capacitive loads without instability?
OP284EPZ is unity-gain stable and can safely drive up to 300 pF capacitive loads with minimal overshoot (<10%) when configured as a unity-gain buffer (Figure 30). For loads exceeding 300 pF, a small series resistor (10–50 Ω) between the output and capacitance restores phase margin. This behavior is confirmed in the datasheet's transient response plots (Figures 39–42) and makes OP284EPZ suitable for driving ADC input capacitors and long PCB traces in data acquisition systems.
What is the typical supply current per amplifier in OP284EPZ at 5 V?
The typical supply current per amplifier in OP284EPZ is 1.45 mA at VS = 5 V and TA = 25°C (Table 2). Over the full −40°C to +125°C range, supply current remains stable between 1.35 mA and 1.55 mA. This low quiescent current enables use in always-on battery-powered nodes-e.g., wireless sensor transmitters-where average system current must stay below 10 mA for multi-year operation on coin cells.
How does input bias current behavior affect PCB layout for OP284EPZ?
OP284EPZ exhibits polarity-reversing input bias currents across the common-mode range (Figure 10), meaning the effective bias current at +IN and −IN changes sign and magnitude depending on VCM. To minimize offset error and CMRR degradation, PCB layout must balance source impedances seen by both inputs-ideally within 0.1% tolerance. Unbalanced impedances cause voltage drops that convert bias current mismatch into additional input offset, especially critical in high-gain, low-drift applications like precision weigh scales.
