Product details
Overview
OPA170AIDRLT from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, 36-V rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier in a 5-pin SOT-553 package, featuring 1.2 MHz gain bandwidth, 19 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz, 110 µA quiescent current per amplifier, and operation from 2.7 V to 36 V supply. It serves as a precision signal-conditioning front-end in battery-powered instrumentation and transducer interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the OPA170AIDRLT datasheet, OPA170AIDRLT pinout, OPA170AIDRLT application, or OPA170AIDRLT equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail input (extending 100 mV beyond V– and within 2 V of V+), low bias current (≤15 pA max), high CMRR (120 dB at ±18 V), stable operation with up to 300 pF capacitive load, and –40°C to +125°C operating range.
Technical Context
The OPA170AIDRLT employs a P-channel JFET input stage enabling ultra-low input bias current and rail-to-rail common-mode input range down to 100 mV below V–. Its internal phase-reversal protection prevents output inversion when inputs exceed the linear common-mode range - a critical feature for noninverting configurations in unregulated power systems.
It delivers stable unity-gain performance with capacitive loads up to 300 pF and maintains ≥110 dB open-loop gain across –40°C to +125°C. The device's 0.4 V/µs slew rate and 20 µs 0.1% settling time (10-V step, ±18 V supply) support precision DC-coupled and moderate-bandwidth AC applications without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 36 V (±1.35 V to ±18 V): Enables direct interface with industrial 24-V rails and low-voltage battery systems without level-shifting. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 1.2 MHz: Supports stable closed-loop gain ≥10 up to ~120 kHz; sufficient for sensor signal conditioning and active filtering. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 19 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz: Low-noise performance suitable for strain gauge and thermocouple amplification where signal amplitudes are sub-mV. |
| Quiescent Current | 110 µA per amplifier (typ): Enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered portable test equipment and remote sensors. |
| Input Bias Current | ≤15 pA (max at 25°C): Minimizes voltage error across high-impedance sources like pH electrodes or photodiode feedback networks. |
| CMRR | 120 dB at ±18 V: Rejects >1 million:1 common-mode interference in bridge-based measurement circuits with mismatched legs. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output | VOUT swings within 35 mV of rails (at ±18 V, IO = ±1 mA): Maximizes dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition systems. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-553 (DRL) package: 1.6 mm × 1.2 mm × 0.6 mm body, 0.5-mm pitch, thermally enhanced bottom-side pad for improved PCB heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | +IN (noninverting input) | High-impedance node accepting signals from high-Z sources; referenced to V– for single-supply biasing. |
| 2 | V– (negative supply) | Lowest potential rail; must be connected directly to ground or negative supply; supports true rail-to-rail input down to V– – 0.1 V. |
| 3 | –IN (inverting input) | Feedback node in standard op-amp configurations; RFI-filtered internally to suppress RF rectification artifacts. |
| 4 | OUT (output) | Capable of sourcing/sinking ≥17 mA; drives 10-kΩ loads to within 35 mV of rails; stable with ≤300 pF capacitive load. |
| 5 | V+ (positive supply) | Highest potential rail; supplies internal bias circuitry; supports operation up to 36 V with no derating required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RFI-filtered inputs | Integrated RC filtering suppresses RF-induced DC offset shifts from cellular, Wi-Fi, or switching regulator coupling. |
| No phase reversal | Input overdrive beyond common-mode range forces output to rail instead of inverting - eliminates latch-up risk in fault-tolerant designs. |
| Extended input range | Operates with inputs 100 mV below V– and up to V+ – 2 V; enables direct sensing of ground-referenced signals in single-supply systems. |
| Low quiescent current | 110 µA typical ensures <1 µW static power at 3.3 V - critical for always-on sensor nodes and energy-harvesting applications. |
| High ESD robustness | ±4000 V HBM and ±750 V CDM ratings reduce field failure risk during automated assembly and end-equipment handling. |
Applications
| Transducer Amplifier | Bridge Amplifier |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA192IDBVR | Higher precision: 5 µV max VOS, 0.2 µV/°C drift, but 190 µA IQ; SO-8/SOT-23-5 only - no SOT-553 option. | Better for metrology-grade integrators; less suitable for space-constrained battery nodes due to higher IQ and larger footprint. | Select OPA192IDBVR only if offset drift dominates system error budget and board area allows SO-8. |
| TLV170IDBVR | Same SOT-23-5 package, lower cost, but reduced specs: 3.5 mV max VOS, 1.5 µV/°C drift, 1.8 MHz GBW, 150 µA IQ. | Acceptable for consumer-grade sensor interfaces where 12-bit accuracy suffices and cost is primary constraint. | Choose TLV170IDBVR for cost-sensitive volume production where ±3.5 mV offset is tolerable and layout space matches SOT-23-5. |
Compared with OPA170AIDRLT, OPA192IDBVR offers superior DC precision at higher power and no SOT-553 option, while TLV170IDBVR trades accuracy for cost and uses a physically larger SOT-23-5 footprint - making OPA170AIDRLT the optimal balance of micro-size, low IQ, and industrial-grade drift performance.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the OPA170AIDRLT can drive stably?
The OPA170AIDRLT is specified to remain unity-gain stable with capacitive loads up to 300 pF, as confirmed in the datasheet's Typical Characteristics section (Figure 23–24). This capability eliminates the need for external isolation resistors in many sensor interface and DAC output buffer applications, preserving signal integrity without added component count or board area.
Does the OPA170AIDRLT support true rail-to-rail input operation?
Yes - the OPA170AIDRLT accepts input voltages from 100 mV below V– to within 2 V of V+, and can operate with inputs extending 100 mV beyond V+ (with reduced performance). This is explicitly documented in Section 3 (Description) and Electrical Characteristics Table (VCM parameter), enabling direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors in single-supply systems.
What is the guaranteed input bias current specification for OPA170AIDRLT over temperature?
The OPA170AIDRLT guarantees input bias current ≤ ±3.5 nA over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range, with a tighter 15 pA maximum at 25°C. This is verified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "INPUT BIAS CURRENT" (IB), ensuring predictable error contribution in high-impedance feedback networks across industrial environments.
Can the OPA170AIDRLT replace older OPA2333 or OPA2340 in existing SOT-23-5 layouts?
No - the OPA170AIDRLT uses the SOT-553 (DRL) package (1.6 mm × 1.2 mm), which is physically smaller and has different pinout than SOT-23-5 (2.9 mm × 1.6 mm). Pin mapping differs: OPA170AIDRLT pin 1 = +IN, pin 2 = V–, pin 3 = –IN, pin 4 = OUT, pin 5 = V+; legacy SOT-23-5 op-amps use incompatible assignments. PCB redesign is required.
What thermal performance metrics apply to the OPA170AIDRLT in SOT-553 package?
Per Section 7.4 of the datasheet, the OPA170AIDRLT in DRL (SOT-553) package has RθJA = 208.1°C/W, RθJB = 42.4°C/W, and ψJB = 42.2°C/W. These values confirm effective heat transfer to the PCB, supporting reliable operation at 125°C ambient when using minimum recommended copper pour (≥100 mm²) under the thermal pad.
