Product details
Overview
OPA2227PA from Texas Instruments is a dual, high-precision, low-noise operational amplifier in an 8-pin PDIP package. It delivers 3 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 8 MHz gain bandwidth, 2.3 V/µs slew rate, and ±75 µV max input offset voltage at 25°C - enabling high-fidelity signal conditioning in professional audio, data acquisition, and spectral analysis systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2227PA datasheet, OPA2227PA pinout, OPA2227PA application, or OPA2227PA equivalent, key selection considerations include its unity-gain stability, ±2.5 V to ±18 V supply range, dual-channel isolation, low 10 nA input bias current, and compatibility with precision DC + AC performance requirements in low-distortion analog front-ends.
Technical Context
The OPA2227PA implements a bipolar-input, fully differential input stage optimized for low 1/f and broadband voltage noise. Its internal compensation ensures unity-gain stability without external components, supporting robust closed-loop operation across gains of 1 to 100.
It features laser-trimmed input offset voltage and drift (±0.1 µV/°C typ), high 138 dB CMRR, and rail-to-rail output swing capability within ±2 V of supplies - all specified over –40°C to +85°C with guaranteed performance from ±5 V to ±15 V supplies.

| 3 | +In A | Noninverting input for Channel A; matched impedance to –In A for CMRR optimization |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply terminal; must be decoupled with 0.1 µF capacitor near pin |
| 5 | +In B | Noninverting input for Channel B; electrically isolated from Channel A (≥120 dB separation) |
| 6 | –In B | Inverting input for Channel B; independent bias current path (≤10 nA max) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual high-precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2189IDR | Zero-drift architecture; 5.2 nV/√Hz noise; 10 MHz GBW; 20 V/µs slew rate | Better DC accuracy (±1 µV offset), but higher noise above 100 Hz limits audio use | Select when long-term DC stability outweighs broadband noise performance |
| LT1028ACN8#PBF | Bipolar input; 0.85 nV/√Hz noise; 50 MHz GBW; 15 V/µs slew rate; no dual version | Superior noise and speed, but single-channel only and requires external compensation | Select for ultra-low-noise single-channel applications where layout space permits discrete compensation |
Compared with OPA2227PA, OPA2189IDR offers superior DC drift performance but trades 70% higher voltage noise above 1 kHz, while LT1028ACN8#PBF delivers best-in-class noise and bandwidth but lacks dual-channel integration and unity-gain stability - making OPA2227PA optimal for space-constrained, dual-channel, AC+DC precision designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the OPA2227PA?
The OPA2227PA supports a total supply voltage range of ±2.5 V to ±18 V, with absolute maximum ratings up to ±18 V on each rail. The device is rated for continuous operation at ±15 V and can withstand transient conditions up to ±18 V. Exceeding ±18 V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings in the TI SBOS110B datasheet.
Does the OPA2227PA require external compensation capacitors?
No, the OPA2227PA is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external compensation capacitors. Its design eliminates the need for external phase compensation networks, simplifying PCB layout and reducing component count in gain-of-1, gain-of-2, or higher configurations - unlike the OPA2228 which requires minimum closed-loop gain ≥5.
How does the OPA2227PA compare to the OPA227PA in terms of pin compatibility and performance?
The OPA2227PA and OPA227PA are not pin-compatible: OPA2227PA is a dual op amp (8-pin PDIP, pins 1–7 assigned to two channels), while OPA227PA is a single op amp (8-pin PDIP with offset trim pins). Performance differs in channel count, noise (both specify 3 nV/√Hz), and GBW (8 MHz for both), but OPA2227PA adds dual-channel isolation and eliminates trim pins to maximize functional density.
What is the typical input bias current of the OPA2227PA over temperature?
The OPA2227PA specifies a maximum input bias current of ±10 nA over the full –40°C to +85°C operating range. At 25°C, typical bias current is ±2.5 nA, and it remains stable across temperature - confirmed by Figure 15 in the SBOS110B datasheet showing <±3 nA variation from –40°C to +125°C under ±15 V supply.
Can the OPA2227PA drive capacitive loads without instability?
The OPA2227PA can drive moderate capacitive loads (≤100 pF) directly, but larger loads require isolation. Figure 26 shows overshoot increases beyond 100 pF at G=±1; TI recommends adding a 20–100 Ω series resistor between output and load for >100 pF capacitance. This maintains phase margin and prevents peaking or oscillation in active filter or cable-driving applications.
