Product details
Overview
OPA2337PA from Texas Instruments is a dual, rail-to-rail output CMOS operational amplifier in an 8-pin PDIP package, unity-gain stable, with 3MHz gain-bandwidth, 1.2V/µs slew rate, 120dB open-loop gain, and 525µA per amplifier quiescent current. It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V single supply and is used in low-power photodiode pre-amplifiers and battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2337PA datasheet, OPA2337PA pinout, OPA2337PA application, or OPA2337PA equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, dual-channel pin mapping for DIP-8, rail-to-rail output swing behavior, input bias current ≤10pA, and selection guidance against functionally comparable dual CMOS op amps.
Technical Context
The OPA2337PA implements a CMOS input stage enabling ultra-low input bias current (≤10pA) and rail-to-rail output swing within 125mV of each rail at 25kΩ load. Its unity-gain stability supports direct use in buffers and gain-of-one configurations without external compensation.
It features independent dual amplifiers with no crosstalk interaction, input common-mode range extending to ground (−0.2V), and operation down to 2.5V supply-making it suitable for single-supply systems where signal headroom and power efficiency are critical.

| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 3MHz - supports stable closed-loop bandwidth up to 3MHz at unity gain for sensor signal conditioning. |
| Slew Rate | 1.2V/µs - enables accurate reproduction of signals with <2µs settling time for 2V steps. |
| Input Bias Current | ≤10pA max - preserves high-impedance source integrity in photodiode and medical electrode interfaces. |
| Open-Loop Gain | 120dB - ensures <0.001% gain error in precision DC-coupled amplification stages. |

Pinout & Package
OPA2337PA is housed in an 8-pin plastic dual in-line package (PDIP-8) with through-hole mounting. Pin 1 is located at the top-left corner when the notch faces upward.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input A | High-impedance node for differential feedback configuration of Amplifier A. |
| 2 | Non-inverting Input A | Accepts high-Z sensor signals (e.g., photodiode cathode) without loading. |
| 3 | Output A | Delivers rail-to-rail voltage swing to drive ADC inputs or low-power transducers. |
| 4 | V− (Ground) | Reference return for both amplifiers; connects to system ground plane. |

| 8 | V+ | Single positive supply rail (2.5V–5.5V); bypass with 0.01µF ceramic capacitor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Applications
| Photodiode Pre-Amplifier | Battery-Powered Instrumentation |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Amplifying weak current from reverse-biased photodiodes in portable pulse oximeters or environmental light sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Transimpedance amplifier converting photocurrent to voltage with minimal input loading and offset drift. Use Value: 10pA input bias current prevents signal loss; rail-to-rail output drives 12-bit ADCs directly at 3V supply. | Use Scenario: Signal conditioning and buffering in handheld multimeters or portable gas analyzers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-channel buffer and gain stage for analog sensor outputs prior to microcontroller ADC sampling. Use Value: 525µA per amplifier enables two independent channels on a single 3V coin cell; unity-gain stability eliminates compensation components. |
| Medical Electrode Interface | ADC Driver for Low-Power Data Acquisition |
Use Scenario: Front-end amplification of biopotential signals (ECG, EEG) in wearable diagnostic patches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-input-impedance, low-noise amplifier rejecting common-mode interference while preserving DC accuracy. Use Value: Input common-mode range to ground supports single-supply electrode biasing; 120dB open-loop gain ensures <0.001% gain error. | Use Scenario: Driving SAR ADC inputs (e.g., ADS7822) in space-constrained, micropower data loggers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output buffer isolating ADC sample-and-hold input from upstream filter stages. Use Value: Rail-to-rail swing matches 0–VREF ADC input range; 2µs 0.1% settling meets 100ksps sampling requirements. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual CMOS op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2340UA | Higher GBW (5.5MHz), higher IQ (750µA), SO-8 only; same rail-to-rail output and CMOS input. | Better for higher-frequency sensor interfaces (>100kHz), but increases power draw in battery-critical designs. | Select OPA2340UA when bandwidth >3MHz is required and supply current budget allows +225µA per channel. |
| MCP6022-I/P | Lower GBW (10MHz), lower IQ (1mA), DIP-8 package; rail-to-rail I/O, but input common-mode does not include ground. | Requires input biasing network for ground-referenced signals; better for cost-sensitive industrial controls than medical-grade sensing. | Choose MCP6022-I/P for non-ground-referenced AC-coupled applications where 10MHz bandwidth justifies higher IQ and reduced DC precision. |
Compared with OPA2337PA, OPA2340UA offers higher bandwidth at increased quiescent current, while MCP6022-I/P trades ground-sensing capability for broader commercial temperature range and lower unit cost-neither is pin-compatible, requiring PCB redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the OPA2337PA?
The OPA2337PA has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of 7.5V, but its specified operating range is 2.5V to 5.5V. Operation above 5.5V voids parametric guarantees and risks reliability degradation. For robust long-term use in battery-powered systems, maintain V+ between 2.7V and 5.5V as validated in the datasheet's electrical characteristics tables.
Does the OPA2337PA support rail-to-rail input common-mode voltage?
No-the OPA2337PA supports rail-to-rail *output* swing but not rail-to-rail *input*. Its input common-mode voltage range extends from (V−) − 0.2V to (V+) − 1.2V. At V+ = 5V and V− = 0V, valid input voltages are −0.2V to +3.8V. Inputs beyond this range may cause phase inversion or increased bias current, though they remain within absolute maximum ratings.
Can the OPA2337PA drive capacitive loads without oscillation?
The OPA2337PA is unity-gain stable and can safely drive ≥100pF loads without external compensation, as confirmed by small-signal step response testing in the datasheet. For loads >500pF, add a 10Ω–50Ω series resistor at the output to isolate capacitance and preserve phase margin-this is standard practice for CMOS op amps driving ADC input capacitors or long PCB traces.
Is the OPA2337PA pin-compatible with other dual op amps in PDIP-8 packages?
No-OPA2337PA uses a nonstandard pinout: Pin 1 = Inverting Input A, Pin 2 = Non-inverting Input A, Pin 3 = Output A, Pin 4 = V−, Pin 5 = Output B, Pin 6 = Non-inverting Input B, Pin 7 = Inverting Input B, Pin 8 = V+. This differs from industry-standard dual op amp pinouts (e.g., LM358, TL072), so direct replacement requires PCB layout modification.
What is the typical input offset voltage drift of the OPA2337PA over temperature?
The OPA2337PA exhibits a typical input offset voltage drift of ±2µV/°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. Production distribution data shows >95% of units fall within ±3.5µV/°C across −40°C to +85°C. This low drift supports stable DC gain accuracy in medical and instrumentation applications where thermal gradients affect long-term calibration.
