Product details
Overview
OPA134UA/2K5G4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-performance FET-input audio operational amplifier designed for low-distortion signal conditioning in professional and high-fidelity audio circuits. It delivers 0.00008% THD+N at 1kHz, 8nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 20V/µs slew rate, ±2.5V to ±18V dual-supply operation, and rail-to-rail output swing within 1V of supply rails - enabling clean headroom in line-level preamplifier and active filter stages.
For engineers reviewing the OPA134UA/2K5G4 datasheet, OPA134UA/2K5G4 pinout, OPA134UA/2K5G4 application, or OPA134UA/2K5G4 equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low distortion performance under 2kΩ load, true FET-input bias current (5pA), unity-gain stability, absence of phase reversal, and SOIC-8 packaging compatibility with standard audio PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The OPA134UA/2K5G4 implements a fully differential, cascoded JFET input stage that maintains ultra-low input bias current (5pA) and high common-mode rejection (>90dB) across its full ±13.5V input voltage range. Its composite gain stage enables 8MHz gain-bandwidth product and 120dB open-loop gain at 2kΩ load while remaining unity-gain stable.
Internal thermal shutdown and current limiting protect against overload, and its output drives ≥36mA sourcing / ≥30mA sinking into capacitive loads up to 100pF without instability - verified by step-response testing and closed-loop impedance characterization.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar audio operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2134UA/2K5 | Dual-channel version in same SOIC-8 package; identical electrical specs per channel but shares thermal mass | Preferred for stereo line receivers or dual-path active filters where channel matching and layout symmetry matter | Select OPA2134UA/2K5 only when dual-channel integration reduces board area or improves channel tracking - not as drop-in replacement |
| OPA1611AIDR | Lower 1.1nV/√Hz noise, higher 50mA output drive, but 10x higher 50pA input bias current and different SOIC-8 pinout | Better suited for ultra-low-noise mic preamps with low-Z sources; incompatible pinout requires PCB redesign | Choose OPA1611AIDR only when sub-2nV/√Hz noise is mandatory and input impedance ≤1kΩ - not for FET-input legacy designs |
Compared with OPA134UA/2K5G4, the OPA2134UA/2K5 offers channel pairing at identical performance but no pin compatibility, while OPA1611AIDR trades ultra-low bias current for lower voltage noise and higher drive - making each suitable only for distinct design constraints, not direct substitution.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for OPA134UA/2K5G4?
The OPA134UA/2K5G4 supports dual-supply operation from ±2.5V to ±18V, with absolute maximum ratings specifying 36V total supply voltage (V+ to V–). Operation at ±18V is fully characterized and validated per TI's SBOS058B datasheet, delivering specified THD+N, slew rate, and output swing performance without derating.
Does OPA134UA/2K5G4 require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the OPA134UA/2K5G4 is internally compensated and unity-gain stable. It maintains stability with capacitive loads up to 100pF and exhibits clean step response in G = +1 configurations without added feedback capacitance or series resistance - confirmed by TI's Figure 5-20 and 5-21 small/large-signal transient data.
Can OPA134UA/2K5G4 be used in single-supply audio applications?
Yes, the OPA134UA/2K5G4 operates from 5V to 36V single supply, with recommended conditions specifying 5V minimum. For single-supply use, the input common-mode range extends to (V–)+2.5V and output swings to within 1.2V of V–, requiring proper DC biasing of inputs and AC-coupled outputs - detailed in Section 7.1.1 of the datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance (RθJA) of OPA134UA/2K5G4 in SOIC-8 package?
The OPA134UA/2K5G4 in SOIC-8 (D package) has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 160°C/W, as specified in Section 5.4 of the SBOS058B datasheet. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2S2P test board conditions and informs heatsinking requirements for continuous 5mA quiescent current operation at elevated ambient temperatures.
Is OPA134UA/2K5G4 pin-compatible with other OPAx134 variants like OPA2134 or OPA4134?
No, OPA134UA/2K5G4 is not pin-compatible with OPA2134 or OPA4134. While all share the same SOIC footprint family, OPA134 uses an 8-pin SOIC with NC pins at 1, 5, and 8; OPA2134 uses the same 8-pin SOIC but with functional pins at all positions; OPA4134 uses a 14-pin SOIC. PCB layout must match the exact variant.
