Product details
Overview
OPA2374AIDCNT from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for low-power, single-supply operation (2.3 V to 5.5 V). It delivers 6.5 MHz gain-bandwidth, 5 V/µs slew rate, and 585 µA quiescent current per channel - enabling high-speed signal conditioning in space-constrained, battery-powered systems such as portable medical sensors and handheld test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2374AIDCNT datasheet, OPA2374AIDCNT pinout, OPA2374AIDCNT application, or OPA2374AIDCNT equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning for key specs, validated pin functions for the 8-pin SOT-23 package, application-specific implementation guidance, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and packaging differences.
Technical Context
The OPA2374AIDCNT uses a complementary CMOS input stage enabling rail-to-rail input common-mode range (V− −0.2 V to V+ +0.2 V) and a class AB output stage supporting rail-to-rail swing within 18 mV of rails under light loads (100 kΩ). Its unity-gain stable architecture ensures robust performance in active filters and ADC driver configurations without external compensation.
No shutdown function is integrated - distinguishing it from the pin-compatible OPA2373 family. It operates across –40°C to +125°C and is specified for supply voltages down to 2.3 V, making it suitable for wide-temperature industrial sensing nodes where low-voltage headroom is critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-bandwidth product | 6.5 MHz - supports stable unity-gain buffer or G = +2 amplification up to ~3 MHz without phase margin degradation |
| Slew rate | 5 V/µs - enables clean 1-VPP signal reproduction at up to ~800 kHz before slew-induced distortion dominates |
| Input offset voltage | 5 mV max - limits DC error to ≤0.5% of full-scale in 1-V reference circuits without trimming |
| Quiescent current | 585 µA per channel - allows dual op-amp operation on coin-cell batteries for >1 year in duty-cycled sensor front-ends |
| Input bias current | 10 pA max - permits use with high-impedance sources (e.g., pH electrodes, photodiode transimpedance feedback) without significant leakage error |
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Input extends 200 mV beyond rails; output swings to within 18 mV of rails (100 kΩ load) - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3-V or lower systems |
| Operating temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive sensors and industrial PLC analog I/O modules |
Pinout & Package
OPA2374AIDCNT is housed in an 8-pin SOT-23 package (DCN), measuring 2.90 mm × 1.63 mm × 1.10 mm, with exposed thermal pad connected internally to V− for improved power dissipation in compact layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT A | Amplifier A output - directly drives ADC input or next-stage filter; requires local 100-pF bypass if driving >100-pF capacitive load |
| 2 | –IN A | Inverting input, channel A - connects to feedback network in inverting configurations; sensitive to PCB leakage above 100 MΩ |
| 3 | +IN A | Noninverting input, channel A - ties to high-impedance sensor node; guard ring recommended for sub-pA bias current preservation |
| 4 | V− | Negative supply - must be connected to system ground or negative rail; thermal pad soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal stability |
| 5 | +IN B | Noninverting input, channel B - independent of channel A; enables dual-sensor monitoring (e.g., differential thermocouple + reference) |
| 6 | –IN B | Inverting input, channel B - used for second feedback path; no internal crosstalk with channel A (≥120 dB channel separation at DC) |
| 7 | OUT B | Amplifier B output - can drive separate signal chain (e.g., analog monitor path) without sharing load with OUT A |
| 8 | V+ | Positive supply - accepts 2.3–5.5 V; requires 1-µF ceramic + 10-nF ceramic decoupling within 3 mm of pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input range | Extends 200 mV beyond supply rails - eliminates level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with 0–3.3 V DACs or microcontroller GPIOs |
| Low input bias current | ≤10 pA maximum - enables accurate amplification of signals from high-Z sources like piezoelectric sensors without loading error |
| High open-loop gain | 94 dB minimum (5 V supply) - ensures <0.01% gain error in precision instrumentation amplifier topologies using external resistors |
| Wide temperature range | Specified from –40°C to +125°C - supports deployment in unheated outdoor IoT gateways and motor control feedback loops |
| Low noise density | 15 nV/√Hz at 10 kHz - maintains SNR >80 dB in 20-kHz audio preamplifier stages with 10-kΩ source impedance |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel rail-to-rail op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2373AIDCNT | Includes enable/shutdown pin; 1-µA shutdown current per channel; otherwise identical AC specs and pinout | Required where system-level power gating is needed (e.g., sleep-mode data loggers); adds one control line | Select OPA2373AIDCNT only if active power management justifies added complexity and layout space for enable routing |
| MCP6022-I/SN | Lower GBW (10 MHz), higher IQ (1 mA/channel), SOIC-8 only; no SOT-23 option; 2-mV offset max | Better for cost-sensitive, non-space-constrained designs needing higher speed but tolerating higher power and larger footprint | Choose MCP6022-I/SN when board area is unconstrained and 10-MHz bandwidth outweighs 72% higher supply current |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for OPA2374AIDCNT?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for OPA2374AIDCNT is 7 V, but the recommended operating range is 2.3 V to 5.5 V. Operation above 5.5 V risks permanent damage, while operation below 2.3 V may cause degraded gain-bandwidth and increased input offset voltage. The OPA2374AIDCNT is fully specified and tested from 2.7 V to 5.5 V per TI SBOS279F.
Does OPA2374AIDCNT include a shutdown feature?
No, OPA2374AIDCNT does not include a shutdown or enable function. This distinguishes it from the pin-compatible OPA2373AIDCNT, which integrates an enable pin. If power gating is required in your design, OPA2374AIDCNT must be powered down via external supply control - or replaced with OPA2373AIDCNT, which offers <1 µA shutdown current per channel.
Can OPA2374AIDCNT drive a 1000-pF capacitive load?
OPA2374AIDCNT is not unity-gain stable with 1000-pF loads. Its typical stable capacitive load limit is ~250 pF in unity-gain configuration. Driving 1000-pF requires isolation via a series resistor (e.g., 10–20 Ω) between the OPA2374AIDCNT output and the load, or use of a higher-gain configuration (G ≥ +5) to improve phase margin. Refer to Figure 17 in the SBOS279F datasheet for overshoot vs. capacitance curves.
What is the thermal pad connection requirement for OPA2374AIDCNT?
The exposed thermal pad on the underside of the OPA2374AIDCNT (DCN package) is internally connected to V−. It must be soldered to a PCB copper pour tied to the system ground plane to ensure thermal stability and prevent junction temperature rise above 125°C under continuous 585-µA/channel operation. Leaving the pad floating degrades thermal resistance by >40% and risks parametric shift.
How does input common-mode range exceed the supply rails in OPA2374AIDCNT?
OPA2374AIDCNT achieves rail-to-rail input via a complementary CMOS input stage: parallel N-channel and P-channel differential pairs. This allows valid operation from (V−) −0.2 V to (V+) +0.2 V. Inputs beyond this range (but within ±0.5 V of rails) are nondestructive if current-limited to ≤10 mA - enabling safe interfacing with overvoltage-tolerant sensors without external clamping diodes.
