Product details
Overview
OPA211SHKQ from Texas Instruments is a high-temperature precision operational amplifier in an 8-pin HKQ ceramic hermetic package, delivering 1.1 nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 1 kHz, 27 V/μs slew rate, and rail-to-rail output swing across ±2.25 V to ±18 V supplies. It operates continuously from –55°C to 210°C and is used as a loop filter amplifier in down-hole drilling PLL systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA211SHKQ datasheet, OPA211SHKQ pinout, OPA211SHKQ application, or OPA211SHKQ equivalent, key selection criteria include verified ultra-low noise performance at extreme temperatures, guaranteed 16-bit settling (700 ns), and confirmed operation with asymmetric supply rails - critical for high-reliability industrial sensing and aerospace signal conditioning.
Technical Context
The OPA211SHKQ employs a SiGe bipolar process optimized for extended temperature operation, featuring unity-gain stability, no phase reversal, and internal ESD protection with back-to-back input diodes. Its architecture supports controlled baseline manufacturing with one assembly/test site and one fabrication site.
It achieves low-noise precision via matched transistor pairs and laser-trimmed resistors, enabling stable offset voltage (±240 μV max) and drift (0.35 μV/°C typ) over full temperature range. The device includes shutdown functionality referenced to V+, with enable/disable thresholds defined relative to the positive supply rail.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
OPA211SHKQ uses an 8-pin ceramic hermetic HKQ package with metal lid and ceramic base, designed for high-reliability mounting (as-formed or dead-bug). Thermal resistance θJC is 5.7°C/W to ceramic side and 13.7°C/W to metal lid.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NC | No internal connection - must be left unconnected or grounded per layout guidelines |
| 2 | –IN | Inverting input - differential node for feedback network in active filter or instrumentation topologies |
| 3 | +IN | Non-inverting input - high-impedance reference point for sensor biasing or reference buffering |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply rail - connects to lowest system potential; supports rail-to-rail output swing |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection - electrically isolated; avoid routing signals or power near this pad |
| 6 | V+ | Positive supply rail - powers core amplifier and internal protection circuitry |
| 7 | OUT | Amplified output - drives ADC inputs, transducer loads, or next-stage filters with 30 mA drive capability |
| 8 | NC | No internal connection - floating terminal; no bonding wire attached |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 200 mV of rails at 10 kΩ load - maximizes dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition |
| Controlled baseline | Single assembly/test site and single fabrication site - ensures consistent parametric distribution across production lots |
| Extended lifecycle support | Product change notification and traceability - required for aerospace, defense, and oilfield OEM programs |
| Shutdown function | Enable/disable referenced to V+ - allows power sequencing and low-power sleep modes in battery-constrained systems |
| Input protection | Back-to-back ESD diodes on inputs - prevents damage from field-induced transients in harsh environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA211SHKJ | Same die, identical electrical specs, but in HKJ ceramic package with different pin 1 marking and thermal path | HKJ has higher θJC to lid (13.7°C/W vs HKQ's 13.7°C/W to lid, 5.7°C/W to ceramic); same footprint but distinct mounting geometry | Select HKJ only if legacy board design specifies HKJ mechanical outline or requires dead-bug mounting with lid-down orientation |
| OPA227UA | Lower temperature rating (–40°C to +85°C), higher voltage noise (3.5 nV/√Hz), no shutdown pin, SO-8 package | Not rated for >125°C operation; unsuitable for down-hole or engine-mount use; lacks ESD robustness for industrial I/O | Use only in commercial-grade lab equipment or non-critical industrial controllers where cost is primary constraint |
Compared with OPA211SHKJ, the OPA211SHKQ offers lower junction-to-case thermal resistance to the ceramic base - critical for conduction-cooled down-hole assemblies. Compared with OPA227UA, it delivers 3× lower noise and 125°C wider operating range, but requires hermetic packaging and higher procurement oversight.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature of the OPA211SHKQ?
The OPA211SHKQ is fully specified and tested from –55°C to +210°C ambient temperature. Its silicon die and ceramic HKQ package are qualified for continuous operation at 210°C, with junction temperature limited to 210°C per absolute maximum ratings. This makes OPA211SHKQ suitable for down-hole drilling tools and turbine-mounted sensors where ambient exceeds 150°C.
Does the OPA211SHKQ have a shutdown pin, and how is it controlled?
Yes, the OPA211SHKQ includes a shutdown (enable) function referenced to the positive supply rail (V+). A valid high (≥ V+ – 0.35 V) disables the amplifier, placing the output in high-impedance state; a valid low (≤ V+ – 3 V) enables normal operation. For example, with ±15 V supplies, enable occurs below 12 V and disable above 14.65 V on the shutdown pin. This feature is present in the HKQ package and documented in the OPA211-HT datasheet.
Can the OPA211SHKQ operate with asymmetric supply voltages?
Yes, the OPA211SHKQ supports asymmetric dual supplies - for example, +25 V and –5 V - as explicitly stated in the Applications Information section of the datasheet. Its wide supply range (±2.25 V to ±18 V, or 4.5 V to 36 V total) and rail-to-rail output allow full utilization of available headroom regardless of supply symmetry, making OPA211SHKQ ideal for systems with mixed-voltage domains.
What is the input voltage noise specification of the OPA211SHKQ at 10 Hz?
The OPA211SHKQ has an input voltage noise of 2 nV/√Hz at 10 Hz, as confirmed in Table 1 of the SBOS481D datasheet under ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS. This value, combined with its 80 nVPP (0.1 Hz to 10 Hz) peak-to-peak noise, positions OPA211SHKQ as optimal for low-frequency precision applications such as strain gauge and thermopile amplification where 1/f noise dominates.
Is the OPA211SHKQ pin-compatible with standard SO-8 op amps?
No, the OPA211SHKQ uses an 8-pin ceramic hermetic HKQ package with non-standard pinout and mechanical dimensions - it is not pin-compatible with SO-8, MSOP-8, or TSSOP-8 packages. Pin 1 is marked differently, NC pins occupy positions 1, 5, and 8, and the thermal path is engineered for conduction cooling. Migration from plastic-packaged op amps requires PCB redesign and thermal validation; OPA211SHKQ must be treated as a dedicated high-reliability component.
