Product details
Overview
OPA2228UA/2K5 from Texas Instruments is a dual, high-precision, low-noise operational amplifier optimized for closed-loop gains ≥5, delivering 33 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 11 V/µs slew rate, and 3 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz - ideal for professional audio preamplification, spectral analysis front-ends, and precision data acquisition signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2228UA/2K5 datasheet, OPA2228UA/2K5 pinout, OPA2228UA/2K5 application, or OPA2228UA/2K5 equivalent, key selection criteria include its minimum stable gain of 5 V/V, ±2.5 V to ±18 V supply flexibility, 138 dB CMRR, 160 dB open-loop gain, and SOIC-8 packaging with verified dual-channel isolation and thermal performance up to 85°C.
Technical Context
The OPA2228UA/2K5 implements a fully compensated, bipolar-input op-amp architecture optimized for high-speed precision applications requiring both wide bandwidth and low distortion. Its internal compensation ensures stability only at closed-loop gains ≥5, distinguishing it from unity-gain-stable variants like the OPA2227.
It features matched dual amplifiers with independent inputs and outputs, 0.4 pA/√Hz current noise at 1 kHz, and rail-to-rail output swing capability limited by ±2 V headroom on each supply rail under 10 kΩ load - enabling accurate DC-coupled gain stages in multi-channel instrumentation systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 33 MHz - supports stable closed-loop operation up to 10× gain with <1° phase margin at G = 5. |
| Slew Rate | 11 V/µs - enables full-scale 10 V step response within 1.5 µs (0.1%) when configured at G = 5. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 3 nV/√Hz @ 1 kHz - preserves SNR in low-level sensor interfaces such as geophysical transducers. |
| CMRR | 138 dB - rejects common-mode interference in differential measurement bridges without trimming. |
| Open-Loop Gain | 160 dB - ensures <1 ppm gain error in 100× precision gain stages with feedback resistors ≤100 kΩ. |
| Supply Range | ±2.5 V to ±18 V - allows direct interfacing with ±5 V, ±12 V, or ±15 V industrial power rails without regulation. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for deployment in telecom line cards and outdoor spectral analyzers. |
Pinout & Package
OPA2228UA/2K5 is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (SO-8) with 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm body size and standard dual-op-amp pinout. The package supports surface-mount reflow and meets JEDEC MS-012 standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Out A (Pin 1) | Output channel A | High-fidelity analog output capable of driving 600 Ω loads to ±3.5 V with <0.00005% THD+N at 1 kHz. |
| –In A (Pin 2) | Inverting input channel A | Differential input node with 10⁹ Ω || 3 pF common-mode impedance; requires matched layout for optimal CMRR. |
| +In A (Pin 3) | Noninverting input channel A | High-impedance input referenced to system ground or virtual ground; sensitive to thermocouple-induced offset drift. |
| V– (Pin 4) | Negative supply rail | Low-impedance return path; must be decoupled with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed ≤2 mm from pin. |
| +In B (Pin 5) | Noninverting input channel B | Independent second channel input; electrically isolated from channel A with >110 dB DC channel separation. |
| –In B (Pin 6) | Inverting input channel B | Matches Pin 2 characteristics; supports simultaneous dual-channel signal processing without crosstalk degradation. |
| Out B (Pin 7) | Output channel B | Identical AC/DC performance to Pin 1; enables stereo audio buffering or dual-sensor signal conditioning. |
| V+ (Pin 8) | Positive supply rail | Primary power entry point; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic + 10 µF tantalum decoupling for broadband noise suppression. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual high-speed precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2227UA/2K5 | Unity-gain stable; 8 MHz GBW, 2.3 V/µs slew rate, identical noise and offset specs. | Preferred for G = 1–4 configurations (e.g., active filters, I/V converters) where OPA2228 is unstable. | Select OPA2227UA/2K5 when closed-loop gain is <5 or unity-gain stability is mandatory. |
| AD827ARZ | Higher 50 MHz GBW but 100 µV max offset, 5 nV/√Hz noise, and no guaranteed 138 dB CMRR. | Better for video or wideband RF gain; less suitable for precision DC-coupled measurements requiring sub-100 µV offset. | Choose AD827ARZ only if bandwidth >33 MHz is required and DC precision is secondary. |
Compared with OPA2227UA/2K5, the OPA2228UA/2K5 trades unity-gain stability for 4× higher speed and lower distortion at G ≥5; versus AD827ARZ, it delivers superior DC accuracy and lower noise at the cost of 30% lower bandwidth.

FAQ
What is the minimum closed-loop gain required for stable operation of the OPA2228UA/2K5?
The OPA2228UA/2K5 requires a minimum closed-loop gain of 5 V/V for stable operation. It is not unity-gain stable; using it at G = 1 or G = 2 risks oscillation due to its internal compensation optimized for higher gains. Always verify phase margin with simulation when operating near the 5 V/V threshold.
Does the OPA2228UA/2K5 support single-supply operation?
Yes, the OPA2228UA/2K5 supports single-supply operation from 5 V to 36 V total supply range (e.g., V+ = 5 V, V– = 0 V). Input common-mode range extends to within 2 V of each rail, and output swings to within 2 V of each rail under 10 kΩ load - enabling use in 5 V microcontroller-based sensor interfaces with appropriate level-shifting.
What is the input voltage noise specification for OPA2228UA/2K5 at 10 Hz?
The OPA2228UA/2K5 has an input voltage noise density of 3.5 nV/√Hz at 10 Hz. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table (Section 6.7) and reflects its low 1/f noise corner, making it suitable for audio and low-frequency precision applications where flicker noise dominates.
How does the OPA2228UA/2K5 compare to the OPA228UA in pin compatibility and performance?
The OPA2228UA/2K5 and OPA228UA share identical SOIC-8 pinout, electrical specifications, and performance - differing only in tape-and-reel packaging (2K5 = 2500-unit reel). Both deliver 33 MHz GBW, 11 V/µs slew rate, and 3 nV/√Hz noise. No PCB or schematic changes are needed when substituting between them.
Is the OPA2228UA/2K5 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the OPA2228UA/2K5 is RoHS compliant and lead-free. Per Texas Instruments' official documentation (SBOS110B, page 32), the SOIC-8 package (U suffix) uses lead-free NiPdAu terminal finish and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 requirements for surface-mount assembly.
