Product details
Overview
OPA187ID from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, zero-drift, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for precision low-side current sensing and high-accuracy signal conditioning. It delivers 10 µV maximum input offset voltage, 0.001 µV/°C drift, 15 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 160 dB PSRR, and 140 dB CMRR across –40°C to +125°C. It operates from ±2.25 V to ±18 V supply and supports analog input modules and industrial transmitters.
For engineers reviewing the OPA187ID datasheet, OPA187ID pinout, OPA187ID application, or OPA187ID equivalent, key selection considerations include ultra-low drift performance in low-power 36-V systems, rail-to-rail output swing within 5 mV of rails, negative-rail-inclusive input common-mode range, and microsize SOT-23/SOIC/VSSOP packaging for space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The OPA187ID uses auto-zeroing and chopper-stabilized techniques to achieve near-zero input offset voltage drift over temperature and time, with integrated notch filtering to suppress switching artifacts. Its architecture enables stable DC precision without external calibration while maintaining unity-gain stability and low 100 µA quiescent current per amplifier.
It supports dual or single supply operation (4.5 V to 36 V), features EMI-filtered inputs, and provides rail-to-rail output drive into high-impedance loads. Input bias current remains at 100 pA (typical), enabling high-impedance sensor interfacing without significant error contribution.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | ±10 µV max - ensures ≤10 µV initial error in precision gain stages without trimming |
| Offset Drift | 0.001 µV/°C - guarantees <0.1 µV total drift over full –40°C to +125°C range |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±2.25 V to ±18 V - supports wide industrial and automotive power rails including 24-V systems |
| Quiescent Current | 100 µA per amplifier - enables battery-powered or energy-sensitive applications |
| CMRR / PSRR | 140 dB / 160 dB - rejects >100 million-fold common-mode and supply noise in precision measurement |
| Input Voltage Noise | 15 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves SNR in low-level sensor amplification (e.g., strain gauges, RTDs) |
| Output Swing | Within 5 mV of rails (no load) - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage, rail-referenced systems |
Pinout & Package
OPA187ID is available in SOIC-8 (D) package (4.90 mm × 3.91 mm), VSSOP-8 (DGK), and SOT-23-5 (DBV). The SOIC-8 variant is specified for –40°C to +125°C operation and features standard pinout compatible with industry-layout conventions.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA192ID | Higher bandwidth (10 MHz vs 0.55 MHz), higher IQ (1 mA), no zero-drift - trades drift performance for speed | Better suited for active filters or fast-settling multiplexed data acquisition, not ultra-stable DC sensing | Select when GBW > 1 MHz required and drift < 0.1 µV/°C is acceptable |
| LTC2057HMS8#PBF | Lower offset drift (0.00015 µV/°C), higher IQ (175 µA), wider supply (±1.65 V to ±18 V), different pinout | Superior drift spec for metrology-grade instruments; requires PCB redesign due to MSOP-8 footprint | Select only when sub-0.001 µV/°C drift is mandatory and layout change is feasible |
Compared with OPA187ID, OPA192ID offers 18× higher bandwidth but sacrifices zero-drift stability, while LTC2057HMS8#PBF achieves 6.7× lower drift at higher cost and non-compatible packaging - making OPA187ID the optimal balance of precision, power, and SOIC-8 compatibility for industrial sensing.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the OPA187ID?
The OPA187ID is fully specified for operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. This extended range is validated across all electrical parameters in the datasheet, including offset voltage drift, CMRR, and quiescent current, making it suitable for under-hood automotive and industrial control cabinet applications where thermal stress is significant. The OPA187ID maintains its 0.001 µV/°C drift specification across this entire range.
Does the OPA187ID support single-supply operation?
Yes, the OPA187ID supports true single-supply operation from 4.5 V to 36 V. Its input common-mode range includes the negative rail (V–), and its rail-to-rail output swings within 5 mV of both supply rails under no-load conditions. This enables direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors like shunt resistors in 3.3-V, 5-V, or 24-V systems without level-shifting circuitry - a key advantage confirmed in the device's Recommended Operating Conditions table.
What package options are available for the OPA187ID?
The OPA187ID is offered in three industry-standard packages: 8-pin SOIC (D), 8-pin VSSOP (DGK), and 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV). The "ID" suffix specifically denotes the SOIC-8 (D) variant, which measures 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm and is optimized for automated assembly and thermal reliability in industrial PCBs. Pin functions are identical across packages, with NC pins on SOIC-8 located at pins 1, 5, and 8.
How does the OPA187ID achieve its 0.001 µV/°C drift specification?
The OPA187ID achieves its ultra-low drift through a dual-stage auto-zeroing architecture combined with chopper stabilization and integrated notch filtering. This technique continuously corrects input offset voltage in real time, canceling both initial offset and thermally induced drift. Unlike conventional op-amps, this architecture eliminates 1/f noise and ensures drift remains bounded at ±0.001 µV/°C across –40°C to +125°C - a value verified in production testing and documented in Section 6.7 of the SBOS807E datasheet.
Can the OPA187ID drive capacitive loads without instability?
The OPA187ID is unity-gain stable and can safely drive moderate capacitive loads, but requires external isolation resistance (RISO) for loads >100 pF. Typical application curves (Figure 22) show overshoot increases beyond 50 pF without RISO; adding 25–50 Ω in series with the output restores stability. This behavior is inherent to its zero-drift topology and is explicitly characterized - no internal compensation adjustment is possible, so layout-aware design is essential for robust performance.
