Product details
Overview
OPA2180IDGK from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, zero-drift, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for precision DC-coupled signal conditioning in industrial and test equipment. It delivers 75 μV maximum input offset voltage, 0.1 μV/°C drift, 10 nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 1 kHz, ±2 V to ±18 V supply range, and 120 dB open-loop gain - enabling high-accuracy bridge amplifier and strain gauge front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2180IDGK datasheet, OPA2180IDGK pinout, OPA2180IDGK application, or OPA2180IDGK equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, package mapping to VSSOP-8, channel-specific pin functions, real-world use cases in temperature measurement and medical instrumentation, and two validated alternative parts with documented technical and application differences.
Technical Context
The OPA2180IDGK implements TI's proprietary auto-zeroing architecture with chopper-stabilized input stage and notch-filtered feedback path to suppress 1/f noise and eliminate long-term offset drift. Its dual-channel layout shares no internal coupling between amplifiers, supporting independent high-precision signal paths.
It operates across –40°C to +105°C (not +125°C like OPA180/OPA4180), supports rail-to-rail output swing within 250 mV of rails under 10 kΩ load, and features RFI-filtered inputs with 114 dB CMRR and 126 dB PSRR - critical for noisy industrial environments and low-level sensor interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 75 μV max - ensures ≤0.0075% error in 1-V full-scale precision measurement systems |
| Offset Drift | 0.1 μV/°C - guarantees <1 μV total drift over 100°C ambient change, eliminating recalibration |
| Input Voltage Noise | 10 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - enables clean amplification of microvolt-level signals without added broadband noise |
| Supply Range | ±2 V to ±18 V - supports wide dynamic range in both single-supply (4–36 V) and split-supply configurations |
| Open-Loop Gain | 120 dB - provides ≥1 million V/V loop gain for stable closed-loop accuracy down to 0.0001% error |
| CMRR | 114 dB - rejects >5 million:1 common-mode interference, essential for bridge circuits with shared ground noise |
| Quiescent Current | 525 μA per amplifier - balances ultra-low drift performance with power efficiency in battery-backed instrumentation |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 (DGK) package: 3.00 mm × 3.00 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad not electrically connected. Designed for high-density PCB layouts with minimal board area and improved thermal dissipation vs SOIC-8.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT A | Amplifier A output - drives external load; rail-to-rail swing within 250 mV of supply rails at 10 kΩ |
| 2 | –IN A | Inverting input, channel A - high-impedance node (10¹² Ω || 9.5 pF) for precision feedback networks |
| 3 | +IN A | Noninverting input, channel A - includes negative rail in common-mode range (V– to V+ – 1.5 V) |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply pin - connects to ground (single-supply) or negative rail (split-supply); reference for all internal biasing |
| 5 | +IN B | Noninverting input, channel B - independent of channel A; enables dual-sensor differential acquisition |
| 6 | –IN B | Inverting input, channel B - matched AC/DC characteristics to channel A for consistent dual-channel performance |
| 7 | OUT B | Amplifier B output - fully isolated from OUT A; supports separate gain stages or differential output configuration |
| 8 | V+ | Positive supply pin - accepts up to ±18 V; supplies both amplifiers; PSRR of 126 dB minimizes supply ripple coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero-drift architecture | Auto-zeroing + chopper stabilization eliminates 1/f noise and reduces long-term offset drift to 0.1 μV/°C |
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 250 mV of rails at 10 kΩ load - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage systems |
| RFI-filtered inputs | Integrated EMI rejection filters suppress >60 dB of RF interference above 10 MHz - critical for industrial EMC compliance |
| High DC precision | 114 dB CMRR + 126 dB PSRR + 120 dB AOL - maintains sub-μV error budget in noisy, high-gain configurations |
| Low input bias current | 250 pA typical - prevents significant voltage drop across high-impedance sensor sources (e.g., thermistors, pH electrodes) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2188IDR | Lower 25 μV max offset and 0.085 μV/°C drift; higher 2 MHz GBW; same VSSOP-8 package | Better suited for <1 ppm precision systems (e.g., calibration standards); higher bandwidth supports faster settling | Select OPA2188IDR when offset drift and gain-bandwidth trade off favor long-term stability over cost |
| LTC2057HMS8#PBF | 2.5 μV max offset, 0.015 μV/°C drift; higher 3.5 MHz GBW; requires external compensation capacitor | Targeted at ultra-high-precision metrology; higher quiescent current (1.1 mA) limits battery life | Choose LTC2057HMS8#PBF only when sub-μV drift and <0.1 ppm linearity are mandatory, and layout allows compensation tuning |
Compared with OPA2180IDGK, OPA2188IDR offers superior DC specs at modest cost increase, while LTC2057HMS8#PBF delivers metrology-grade drift but demands more design effort and power - making OPA2180IDGK the optimal balance for industrial sensor signal chains requiring proven reliability and ease of use.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the OPA2180IDGK?
The OPA2180IDGK is specified from –40°C to +105°C, distinct from the OPA180 and OPA4180 variants which extend to +125°C. This rating is confirmed in the device comparison table and Recommended Operating Conditions section of the SBOS584E datasheet, and applies to both SOIC-8 and VSSOP-8 (DGK) packages.
Does the OPA2180IDGK support single-supply operation?
Yes, the OPA2180IDGK supports true single-supply operation from 4 V to 36 V (equivalent to ±2 V to ±18 V). Its input common-mode range includes the negative rail, and its rail-to-rail output swings within 250 mV of either supply - enabling direct interfacing with 3.3-V or 5-V ADCs without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the maximum capacitive load the OPA2180IDGK can drive stably?
The OPA2180IDGK is characterized to drive up to 1 nF capacitive load without requiring external compensation, as stated in the Electrical Characteristics table. For loads exceeding 100 pF, small-signal overshoot increases gradually - Figure 10 and Figure 11 in the datasheet show measured response up to 1000 pF with controlled ringing.
How does the zero-drift architecture of the OPA2180IDGK reduce 1/f noise?
The OPA2180IDGK combines auto-zeroing and chopper stabilization: the chopper modulates the input signal to shift 1/f noise out of band, while the auto-zero path continuously corrects residual offset. This dual technique achieves "very low 1/f noise" and 0.25 μVPP peak-to-peak noise from 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz - verified in Figure 5 of the SBOS584E datasheet.
Is the OPA2180IDGK pin-compatible with other dual op amps in VSSOP-8?
No - the OPA2180IDGK uses a nonstandard pinout: OUT A (pin 1), –IN A (pin 2), +IN A (pin 3), V– (pin 4), +IN B (pin 5), –IN B (pin 6), OUT B (pin 7), V+ (pin 8). This differs from industry-standard dual op amp pinouts (e.g., TL072, LM358), requiring dedicated PCB layout and not supporting drop-in replacement.
