Product details
Overview
OPA211SHKJ from Texas Instruments is a high-temperature precision operational amplifier in an 8-pin HKJ ceramic hermetic package, delivering 1.1 nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 1 kHz, 27 V/μs slew rate, and 700 ns 16-bit settling time across ±2.25 V to ±18 V supplies. It operates from –55°C to 210°C and serves as a loop filter amplifier in PLLs or ADC driver in down-hole drilling instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the OPA211SHKJ datasheet, OPA211SHKJ pinout, OPA211SHKJ application, or OPA211SHKJ equivalent, this page provides verified thermal, noise, gain-bandwidth, and rail-to-rail output performance data specific to the HKJ-packaged high-temperature variant - critical for extreme-environment signal conditioning, precision data acquisition, and high-reliability analog front-end design.
Technical Context
The OPA211SHKJ uses a SiGe bipolar process optimized for extended temperature operation, featuring unity-gain stability, rail-to-rail output swing, and internal ESD protection with back-to-back input diodes. Its architecture supports low-noise closed-loop configurations up to 80 MHz GBW (G = 100) while maintaining 0.35 μV/°C offset drift and THD+N of –136 dB at 1 kHz.
It is specified over –55°C to 210°C with junction temperature limited to 210°C, and includes shutdown functionality referenced to V+, enabling high-impedance output state control. The device does not support comparator operation due to limited differential input range.

Pinout & Package
OPA211SHKJ is housed in an 8-pin HKJ ceramic hermetic package with metal lid, designed for high-reliability mounting in "dead bug" or formed-lead configurations. Thermal resistance θJC is 5.7°C/W to ceramic case side.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 4 | V– | Negative supply rail - supports dual-supply operation down to ±2.25 V or single-supply as low as 4.5 V |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection - no bonding wire; floating or grounded per mechanical stress mitigation |
| 6 | V+ | Positive supply rail - powers core and output stage; shutdown pin reference is derived from this node |
| 7 | OUT | Rail-to-rail output - delivers ±(V+)–0.2 V to ±(V–)+0.2 V swing into 10 kΩ load at 25°C |
| 8 | NC | No internal connection - thermally and electrically isolated; may serve as heatsink pad in custom mounting |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA211SHKQ | Same die, HKQ ceramic package with different leadform and thermal resistance (θJC = 13.7°C/W to lid) | Preferred for surface-mount reflow assembly; lower thermal conductivity than HKJ but identical electrical specs | Select HKQ when automated placement and standard SMT processes are prioritized over maximum thermal dissipation |
| OPA227UA | Lower temperature grade (–40°C to +85°C), higher voltage noise (3.5 nV/√Hz), no shutdown pin | Not qualified for >125°C operation; unsuitable for down-hole or engine bay use | Choose only for commercial-grade lab equipment or non-extreme industrial applications where cost is primary |
Compared with OPA211SHKQ, the OPA211SHKJ offers superior thermal conduction to the case (5.7 vs. 13.7°C/W), making it preferred for sustained 210°C junction operation; versus OPA227UA, it delivers 3× lower noise and full high-temperature qualification - essential for mission-critical analog signal integrity.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature specification for OPA211SHKJ?
The OPA211SHKJ has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of 210°C, fully characterized and guaranteed across its –55°C to 210°C operating ambient range. This rating is supported by TI's controlled baseline manufacturing, extended product lifecycle validation, and electromigration derating data showing 10-year reliability at 105°C junction temperature - making OPA211SHKJ suitable for continuous operation in down-hole tools and jet engine controllers where thermal margins are critical.
Does OPA211SHKJ support rail-to-rail input operation?
No, the OPA211SHKJ does not support rail-to-rail input operation. Its common-mode input voltage range is specified as (V–) + 1.8 V to (V+) – 1.4 V at ±5 V supply, and it is explicitly not intended for comparator use due to limited differential input range capability. However, it does provide rail-to-rail output swing - delivering within 200 mV of both supply rails into 10 kΩ loads - which maximizes dynamic range in precision output stages.
How is the shutdown function implemented on OPA211SHKJ?
The OPA211SHKJ shutdown pin is referenced to the positive supply (V+), with a valid high defined as V+ – 0.35 V and a valid low as V+ – 3 V. When disabled, the output enters a high-impedance state. For example, at ±15 V supplies, the device enables below 12 V and disables at or above 14.65 V on the shutdown pin. The pin must never be left floating and requires explicit biasing to ensure reliable enable/disable timing - typical turn-on/turn-off transients are documented in Figures 40–42 of the SBOS481D datasheet.
Can OPA211SHKJ drive capacitive loads, and what is the recommended compensation?
Yes, the OPA211SHKJ can drive capacitive loads up to 100 pF while maintaining stability in unity-gain configuration, as verified in Figure 29 (Small-Signal Overshoot vs Capacitive Load). For loads >100 pF, TI recommends adding a series resistor (e.g., 604 Ω) between the output and capacitor, as shown in Figure 26–27 test circuits. This isolation resistor prevents peaking and ensures monotonic step response - critical for driving ADC input capacitance or long PCB traces in high-temperature environments where parasitic effects intensify.
What is the input protection scheme used in OPA211SHKJ?
The OPA211SHKJ incorporates back-to-back ESD diodes between the inverting and non-inverting inputs, as shown in Figure 44 of the SBOS481D datasheet. These diodes protect against excessive differential voltage but may forward-bias during fast-ramping input signals in low-gain configurations, limiting input current to ≤10 mA. To prevent unintended conduction, TI recommends using an input series resistor - though this degrades noise performance and must be weighed against source impedance and bandwidth requirements in the final design.
