Product details
Overview
OPA2188AID from Texas Instruments is a dual, zero-drift, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for precision DC-coupled signal conditioning in industrial and test equipment. It delivers 25 μV maximum input offset voltage, 0.085 μV/°C drift, 8.8 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 146 dB CMRR, and 2 MHz gain bandwidth - enabling high-accuracy bridge sensor amplification and strain gauge readout at ±18 V supply.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2188AID datasheet, OPA2188AID pinout, OPA2188AID application, or OPA2188AID equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, SOIC-8 package details, real-world use cases in transducer interfaces and medical instrumentation, and validated alternative options for low-drift dual op-amp selection.
Technical Context
The OPA2188AID employs TI's proprietary auto-zeroing architecture with chopper-stabilized front-end and notch-filtered correction path to achieve near-zero drift and low 1/f noise. Its dual-channel design shares no internal coupling beyond substrate, supporting independent high-precision channels with >120 dB channel separation up to 100 kHz.
It operates from ±2 V to ±18 V (4–36 V total), features rail-to-rail output swing within 15 mV of rails, includes negative-rail input common-mode range, and integrates RFI filtering on both inputs - making it suitable for noisy industrial environments without external filtering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 25 μV max - ensures ≤0.0025% error in 1-V full-scale 16-bit systems without calibration |
| Offset Drift | 0.085 μV/°C max - guarantees <1 μV total drift over –40°C to +105°C operating range |
| CMRR | 146 dB (typ) - rejects >5.5 million:1 common-mode interference in differential sensor interfaces |
| Gain Bandwidth | 2 MHz - supports stable unity-gain operation with ≥45° phase margin into 10-kΩ//100-pF loads |
| Quiescent Current | 475 μA per amplifier max - enables dual-channel precision amplification in battery-powered portable instruments |
| Supply Range | ±2 V to ±18 V - compatible with legacy ±15 V industrial rails and modern low-voltage 5 V/3.3 V systems |
| Output Swing | Rail-to-rail, within 15 mV of rails (no load) - maximizes dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition |
Pinout & Package
OPA2188AID is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (SOIC-8) package measuring 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm, with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and 1.27 mm lead pitch. Thermal resistance RθJA is 111°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive power supply | Highest potential rail; must be decoupled with 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor placed ≤2 mm from pin |
| OUT A | Amplifier A output | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±18 mA; rail-to-rail swing supports full-scale ADC interfacing |
| –IN A | Inverting input, Channel A | High-impedance node (10¹² Ω); sensitive to PCB leakage - requires guard ring in high-Z applications |
| +IN A | Noninverting input, Channel A | Includes negative rail; enables single-supply operation with ground-referenced sensors |
| V– | Negative power supply | Lowest potential rail; shared reference for both amplifiers; must be low-impedance |
| +IN B | Noninverting input, Channel B | Independent of Channel A; supports dual-sensor simultaneous sampling without crosstalk |
| –IN B | Inverting input, Channel B | Matched bias current (<±850 pA) to Channel A - critical for matched differential gain stages |
| OUT B | Amplifier B output | Electrically isolated from OUT A; channel separation >120 dB up to 100 kHz |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero-drift architecture | Auto-zeroing with chopper stabilization eliminates thermal drift and 1/f noise - maintains accuracy over time and temperature without recalibration |
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 15 mV of supply rails under no load - preserves >99% of available voltage headroom for maximum SNR |
| RFI-filtered inputs | Integrated EMI rejection filters suppress wireless interference (e.g., GSM, Wi-Fi) without external RC networks |
| High PSRR/CMRR | 142 dB PSRR and 146 dB CMRR - rejects power supply ripple and common-mode noise in unshielded industrial enclosures |
| Low quiescent current | 475 μA per amplifier - enables dual-channel precision amplification in portable, battery-operated test gear |
Applications
| Bridge Amplifier | Strain Gauge Interface |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2333AIDR | Lower supply range (1.8–5.5 V), higher offset drift (0.05 μV/°C), lower bandwidth (350 kHz) | Battery-powered portable devices only; unsuitable for ±15 V industrial rails or >100-kHz signal bandwidths | Select when ultra-low power (<17 μA) and single-supply 3.3 V operation are mandatory; not drop-in for OPA2188AID |
| LTC2053CMS8#PBF | Higher quiescent current (1.1 mA), wider offset spec (25 μV max same), identical 0.05 μV/°C drift, SO-8 package | Requires higher supply current; better performance in high-frequency noise environments due to different chopping architecture | Choose for enhanced EMI immunity in RF-dense medical or communications equipment; pin-compatible but higher IQ |
Compared with OPA2188AID, OPA2333AIDR trades wide supply range and bandwidth for ultra-low power, while LTC2053CMS8#PBF offers comparable precision with higher supply current and superior RF rejection - making each suitable for distinct subsystem constraints rather than direct substitution.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the OPA2188AID?
The OPA2188AID is specified for continuous operation from –40°C to +105°C, with absolute maximum junction temperature rated at 150°C. Its guaranteed performance parameters - including 25 μV max offset voltage and 0.085 μV/°C drift - are valid across this full industrial temperature range, making OPA2188AID suitable for deployment in harsh environments such as factory floors and outdoor instrumentation.
Does the OPA2188AID support single-supply operation?
Yes, the OPA2188AID supports true single-supply operation from 4 V to 36 V total supply range. Its input common-mode range extends to the negative rail (V–), and its rail-to-rail output swings within 15 mV of both supply rails under no load. This allows OPA2188AID to interface directly with ground-referenced sensors and low-voltage ADCs without level-shifting circuitry.
What package types are available for the OPA2188AID?
The OPA2188AID is offered exclusively in the 8-pin SOIC (SOIC-8) package with body dimensions of 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm and standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint. It is not available in VSSOP or other miniaturized packages - the "AID" suffix explicitly denotes the SOIC-8 variant per TI's orderable addendum.
How does the OPA2188AID handle electromagnetic interference (EMI)?
The OPA2188AID integrates on-chip RFI filtering on both inputs, providing measured EMIRR (Electromagnetic Interference Rejection Ratio) >100 dB at 900 MHz and >80 dB at 1.8 GHz. This built-in filtering significantly reduces sensitivity to cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth emissions - eliminating the need for external RC filters in most industrial and medical PCB layouts where OPA2188AID is deployed.
Can the OPA2188AID drive capacitive loads without instability?
The OPA2188AID is characterized to drive up to 1 nF capacitive loads stably in unity-gain configuration. For loads exceeding 100 pF, TI recommends adding a small series resistor (typically 10–50 Ω) between the output and capacitive node to isolate the amplifier's output impedance from the load capacitance - a practice confirmed effective in OPA2188AID reference designs for driving SAR and Σ-Δ ADC inputs.
