Product details
Overview
OPA145IDGKT from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output, JFET-input operational amplifier optimized for high-precision, low-noise signal conditioning in high-impedance sensor interfaces. It delivers 5.5 MHz gain-bandwidth, 20 V/μs slew rate, and 475 µA maximum quiescent current while maintaining 150 µV max input offset voltage and 1 µV/°C max drift - enabling accurate DC-coupled amplification in weigh scales and semiconductor test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the OPA145IDGKT datasheet, OPA145IDGKT pinout, OPA145IDGKT application, or OPA145IDGKT equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (VSSOP-8), confirmed pin functions, real-world noise performance (7 nV/√Hz), thermal metrics (RθJA = 143°C/W), and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and application differences.
Technical Context
The OPA145IDGKT employs a precision JFET input stage with picoampere-level input bias current (2 pA typical) and ultra-low input voltage noise (7 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz), making it suitable for photodiode transimpedance amplifiers and strain gauge front-ends. Its input common-mode range extends to the negative rail (V–), simplifying single-supply designs interfacing to ADCs like the ADS8867.
It features internal output current limiting (±20 mA), rail-to-rail output swing within 75 mV of each supply rail (RL = 10 kΩ), and stable operation with capacitive loads up to 100 pF - requiring only a 50-Ω series resistor for heavier loads per TI's stability guidelines.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-bandwidth product | 5.5 MHz - supports stable unity-gain and G ≥ 2 configurations up to audio and low-speed data acquisition bandwidths. |
| Slew rate | 20 V/μs - enables full-scale 10-V step response in ≤6 μs for 16-bit settling in DAQ systems. |
| Input offset voltage (max) | ±150 µV - ensures ≤0.0024% error in 6-V full-scale instrumentation without trimming. |
| Input bias current (typ) | 2 pA - preserves signal integrity when amplifying from >1 GΩ sources (e.g., piezoelectric sensors). |
| Voltage noise density | 7 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - dominates total noise in 10-kΩ source impedance applications, critical for low-level analog sensing. |
| Supply voltage range | ±2.25 V to ±18 V or 4.5 V to 36 V - supports industrial power rails including 24-V systems and dual ±15-V legacy test gear. |
| Quiescent current (max) | 475 µA - allows battery-powered portable instrumentation with multi-day runtime on coin cells. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 (DGK) package: 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed pad optional for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT | Amplifier output - drives 10-kΩ loads within 75 mV of rails; requires series resistor for >100-pF capacitive loads. |
| 2 | –IN | Inverting input - high-impedance JFET node; sensitive to PCB leakage; guard ring recommended. |
| 3 | +IN | Noninverting input - same impedance as –IN; common-mode range includes V– for single-supply ground-referenced inputs. |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply terminal - must be connected directly to lowest system potential; no internal connection to substrate. |
| 5 | V+ | Positive supply terminal - decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 5 mm of pin. |
| 6–8 | NC | No internal connection - electrically isolated; may be left floating or tied to ground for mechanical stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Delivers full dynamic range into modern 16-bit SAR ADCs (e.g., ADS8867) without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Input range includes V– | Enables true single-supply operation with ground-referenced sensors, eliminating need for negative bias supplies. |
| Ultra-low input bias current | 2 pA typical ensures <0.2 mV error across 1-GΩ feedback resistors used in photodiode TIA designs. |
| Low 1/f noise corner | 320 nVPP (0.1–10 Hz) supports precision DC measurements in weigh scale and SMU applications. |
| EMI rejection | ≥120 dB at 100 MHz - suppresses RF interference from switching power supplies in metrology-grade instruments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision JFET op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA141IDBVT | Lower GBW (11 MHz), higher IQ (1.2 mA), same VSSOP-5 package footprint but different pinout (no NC pins). | Better for wideband AC-coupled applications; unsuitable for DC-critical weigh scale due to 3× higher offset drift (3 µV/°C). | Select OPA141IDBVT only when bandwidth >8 MHz is required and power budget allows 2.5× higher quiescent current. |
| ADA4625-1ACPZ-R7 | Higher GBW (18 MHz), lower noise (4.2 nV/√Hz), but larger LFCSP-8 package and 1.4 mA IQ. | Preferred for high-speed, low-noise photodiode amplification; not drop-in due to different thermal pad layout and solder reflow profile. | Choose ADA4625-1ACPZ-R7 when 16-bit settling at >500 kSPS is needed and board space permits LFCSP-8 mounting. |
Compared with OPA145IDGKT, OPA141IDBVT trades DC precision for speed and higher power, while ADA4625-1ACPZ-R7 delivers superior noise and bandwidth at the cost of layout redesign and increased supply current - making OPA145IDGKT optimal for cost-sensitive, battery-powered, high-DC-accuracy applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the OPA145IDGKT can drive without external compensation?
The OPA145IDGKT remains stable with capacitive loads up to 100 pF when configured in unity gain. For loads exceeding 100 pF, TI recommends adding a 50-Ω series resistor between the OPA145IDGKT output and the load capacitance to maintain phase margin above 45°, as verified in Figure 6-27 of the SBOS427F datasheet. This isolation technique prevents overshoot and ringing in DAQ and SMU applications.
Does the OPA145IDGKT support true single-supply operation down to 4.5 V?
Yes, the OPA145IDGKT operates from a single 4.5-V to 36-V supply, with guaranteed specifications across that range. Its input common-mode voltage includes the negative rail (V–), and its rail-to-rail output swings within 75 mV of both rails under 10-kΩ load - enabling direct interface to 3.3-V or 5-V ADC references without level-shifting circuitry in the OPA145IDGKT design.
How does the OPA145IDGKT's input bias current compare to bipolar-input op amps in high-impedance sensor applications?
The OPA145IDGKT specifies 2 pA typical input bias current - over six orders of magnitude lower than typical bipolar-input op amps (e.g., LM324: ~45 nA). This enables use with >1 GΩ feedback resistors in photodiode transimpedance amplifiers without introducing significant offset error, preserving signal fidelity in applications like optical metrology where the OPA145IDGKT replaces chopper-stabilized alternatives.
What thermal performance can be expected from the OPA145IDGKT in VSSOP-8 (DGK) packaging?
The OPA145IDGKT in DGK package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 143°C/W under standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions. With 475 µA maximum quiescent current, self-heating remains below 7°C at ambient - ensuring drift stability in sealed enclosures. The exposed pad variant (if used) reduces RθJA by ~25%, critical for continuous operation in 125°C industrial environments specified for the OPA145IDGKT.
Is the OPA145IDGKT pin-compatible with other members of the OPAx145 family?
The OPA145IDGKT (VSSOP-8) shares identical pinout with the OPA145ID (SOIC-8) but differs from the OPA145IDBV (SOT-23-5), which has only five pins and no NC terminals. It is not pin-compatible with the dual-channel OPA2145IDGKT - despite shared package code - due to different channel count and pin assignments (e.g., OPA2145 uses pins 1 and 7 for OUT A/B). Always verify pin functions using Table 5-1 for the OPA145IDGKT before PCB layout.
