Product details
Overview
OPA211AIDRG4 from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, precision operational amplifier with 1.1 nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 1 kHz, 80 MHz gain-bandwidth product (G = 100), 27 V/μs slew rate, and rail-to-rail output swing. It operates from ±2.25 V to ±18 V supplies and delivers 16-bit settling in 700 ns across 10-V output swings-ideal for high-resolution data acquisition driving 16-bit ADCs.
For engineers reviewing the OPA211AIDRG4 datasheet, OPA211AIDRG4 pinout, OPA211AIDRG4 application, or OPA211AIDRG4 equivalent, key selection considerations include low-noise performance in precision analog front-ends, thermal management via exposed thermal pad, shutdown functionality, and compatibility with wide-supply industrial and test instrumentation systems.
Technical Context
The OPA211AIDRG4 implements a fully differential input stage optimized for ultra-low voltage noise and low input bias current (±60 nA typical), enabling high-impedance sensor interfacing without significant DC error. Its internal architecture supports unity-gain stability while maintaining 45 MHz bandwidth at G = 1.
It integrates an active shutdown pin (Pin 8) that places the output in high-impedance state when driven ≥(V+) – 0.35 V, with turn-on/turn-off times of 2 μs and 3 μs respectively. The exposed thermal pad must be soldered to V– for specified thermal performance and electrical stability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Voltage Noise Density | 1.1 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - enables sub-μV signal resolution in low-frequency precision measurement paths |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 80 MHz at G = 100 - supports fast closed-loop response in high-gain filter or conditioning stages |
| Slew Rate | 27 V/μs - ensures faithful reproduction of fast transient signals up to ~1.7 MHz full-power bandwidth |
| 16-Bit Settling Time | 700 ns over 10-V swing - meets timing budget for high-speed 16-bit SAR or sigma-delta ADC drivers |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±125 μV max - minimizes DC error in precision transducer amplification and offset-sensitive circuits |
| Supply Range | ±2.25 V to ±18 V (or 4.5 V to 36 V single) - supports operation across industrial, lab, and test equipment rails |
| Shutdown Current | 1–20 μA - reduces system power during idle periods without compromising wake-up latency |
Pinout & Package
OPA211AIDRG4 is housed in an 8-pin SON package (3 mm × 3 mm) with exposed thermal pad on underside, requiring solder connection to V– for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +IN A (Pin 3) | Noninverting input, Channel A | High-impedance node for reference or sensor signal routing; common-mode range extends to within 1.4 V of rails |
| –IN A (Pin 2) | Inverting input, Channel A | Feedback node for closed-loop configurations; matched to +IN A for CMRR >114 dB |
| OUT A (Pin 6) | Output, Channel A | Rail-to-rail capable (V– + 0.2 V to V+ – 0.2 V @ 10 kΩ); drives 30 mA load |
| V– (Pin 4) | Negative supply | Reference for internal circuitry and thermal pad connection point; must tie exposed pad to this pin |
| V+ (Pin 7) | Positive supply | Supplies internal bias and output stage; supports wide dual- or single-supply operation |
| Shutdown (Pin 8) | Active-high enable control | Drives ≥(V+) – 0.35 V to disable; leakage <1 μA; output enters high-Z state |
| NC (Pins 1, 5) | No internal connection | May be left floating or tied to any voltage between V– and V+; no functional impact |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA211AIDR | Same silicon, SOIC-8 package (4.9 mm × 3.9 mm); no exposed thermal pad; RθJA = 122.2°C/W vs 125°C/W for DRG | Lower power density handling; suited for lower ambient temperature or forced-air-cooled PCBs | Select OPA211AIDR when board space allows larger footprint and thermal pad integration is impractical |
| OPA1612AIDR | Lower noise (1.1 nV/√Hz same), but higher quiescent current (4.2 mA/ch vs 3.6 mA); no shutdown pin; different pinout | Optimized for audio-grade linearity (THD+N –145 dB), not industrial DAQ; lacks shutdown control | Choose OPA1612AIDR only for audio-focused designs where shutdown and thermal pad are non-critical |
Compared with OPA211AIDRG4, OPA211AIDR offers identical electrical performance in a larger, easier-to-solder package but sacrifices thermal efficiency, while OPA1612AIDR trades shutdown capability and industrial temp range for enhanced audio spectral purity-neither is pin-compatible.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the OPA211AIDRG4?
The OPA211AIDRG4 is specified from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. This extended industrial range ensures reliable operation in harsh environments such as industrial PLC modules, automotive test rigs, and portable medical devices. Thermal performance relies on proper soldering of the exposed thermal pad to the V– plane per TI's layout guidelines.
Does the OPA211AIDRG4 support single-supply operation?
Yes, the OPA211AIDRG4 supports single-supply operation from 4.5 V to 36 V. Its rail-to-rail output and input common-mode range extending to within 1.4 V of the positive rail (V+ – 1.4 V) and 1.8 V of the negative rail (V– + 1.8 V) enable robust functionality in unipolar systems like battery-powered DAQ modules and portable instrumentation.
How does the shutdown feature of the OPA211AIDRG4 behave electrically?
When the shutdown pin (Pin 8) is driven ≥(V+) – 0.35 V, the OPA211AIDRG4 disables its output stage and enters high-impedance state with shutdown current ≤20 μA. Turn-on time is 2 μs; turn-off time is 3 μs. The pin exhibits <1 μA leakage and requires no external pull-up/down for normal operation.
Can the OPA211AIDRG4 drive capacitive loads without instability?
The OPA211AIDRG4 is unity-gain stable but exhibits increasing overshoot with capacitive loads >100 pF. Typical Characteristics (Figure 28) shows 20% overshoot at 100 pF in G = +1 configuration. For loads >100 pF, TI recommends isolating the output with a small series resistor (e.g., 10–50 Ω) or using a dedicated capacitive-load-compensated op-amp variant.
What is the significance of the exposed thermal pad on the OPA211AIDRG4 SON package?
The exposed thermal pad on the OPA211AIDRG4 must be soldered directly to the printed circuit board and connected to the V– net. Doing so reduces junction-to-board thermal resistance to 28.8°C/W-critical for maintaining <125°C junction temperature at full 3.6 mA/ch quiescent current. Omitting this connection degrades thermal performance and may cause parametric shift or reliability risk.
