Product details
Overview
OPA2743EA/250 from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for 12V operation, delivering 7MHz gain-bandwidth, 10V/µs slew rate, and 1.1mA quiescent current per amplifier. It operates from single supplies (3.5V–12V) or dual supplies (±1.75V–±6V), with input common-mode range extending 100mV beyond rails and output swing within 100mV of rails under light load - making it suitable for LCD gamma correction reference buffering and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2743EA/250 datasheet, OPA2743EA/250 pinout, OPA2743EA/250 application, or OPA2743EA/250 equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail I/O performance at 12V, low input bias current (1pA), full-spectrum CMRR (84dB), thermal stability across –40°C to +85°C, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained analog signal chains.
Technical Context
The OPA2743EA/250 employs a complementary CMOS input stage enabling rail-to-rail input operation with a 500mV transition region where both N- and P-channel pairs are active - resulting in predictable but region-dependent CMRR and THD behavior. Its class AB output stage delivers ±20mA output current and sustains >100kHz small-signal bandwidth into 1kΩ loads while maintaining 86dB open-loop gain.
Designed for unity-gain stability, the device features internal compensation and supports capacitive load drive up to 1000pF; stability under unity-gain conditions is enhanced by adding a 20Ω series resistor inside the feedback loop. Input protection diodes clamp signals exceeding supply rails by >300mV, requiring external current limiting to ≤10mA for overvoltage events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 7MHz - enables stable closed-loop operation up to ~5MHz at G = +2 without peaking. |
| Slew Rate | 10V/µs - supports 1Vpp signals up to ~1.6MHz before slew limiting dominates distortion. |
| Input Bias Current | 1pA (typ) - preserves high-impedance sensor node accuracy and minimizes offset drift in precision integrators. |
| CMRR | 84dB (full-scale) - rejects common-mode noise in single-supply systems with shared ground references. |
| Output Swing | Within 100mV of rails (RL = 100kΩ) - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3V or 5V data acquisition front-ends. |
| Quiescent Current | 1.1mA per amplifier - enables dual-channel operation in battery-powered equipment with <2.5mA total supply draw. |
| Supply Range | 3.5V–12V single or ±1.75V–±6V dual - supports direct interface with 10V LCD bias rails and industrial 5V/12V buses. |
Pinout & Package
OPA2743EA/250 is packaged in an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) - a 3mm × 3mm, 0.65mm pitch surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad, rated MSL Level-2-260°C-1 year, and RoHS-compliant NiPdAuAg finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Out A) | Amplifier A output | Delivers rail-to-rail buffered signal; capable of ±20mA drive into 1kΩ loads. |
| 2 (–In A) | Inverting input A | High-impedance node (5TΩ || 4pF); accepts inputs 100mV beyond V– or V+ rails. |
| 3 (+In A) | Non-inverting input A | Matches –In A characteristics; used for unity-gain buffer or differential sensing configurations. |
| 4 (V–) | Negative supply rail | Reference for dual-supply operation; connects to ground in single-supply designs. |
| 5 (V+) | Positive supply rail | Accepts 3.5V–12V; bypassing with 1000pF ceramic + 1µF tantalum recommended. |
| 6 (+In B) | Non-inverting input B | Independent channel input; electrically isolated from Channel A except via shared supply pins. |
| 7 (–In B) | Inverting input B | Same specs as Pin 2; supports independent gain-setting networks per channel. |
| 8 (Out B) | Amplifier B output | Functionally identical to Pin 1; enables dual-channel signal conditioning on one die. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel rail-to-rail operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2333AIDR | Chopper-stabilized architecture; 0.02µV/°C offset drift vs. OPA2743EA/250's ±8µV/°C; lower 1/f noise but 350kHz GBW. | Better for µV-level DC precision (e.g., weigh scales); unsuitable for >500kHz signal paths due to chopping artifacts. | Select OPA2333AIDR when ultra-low drift dominates over speed; choose OPA2743EA/250 for mixed-signal timing-critical buffering. |
| LMV722MMX/NOPB | Lower supply range (2.7V–5.5V); 10MHz GBW but only 1.5V/µs slew rate; 80dB CMRR vs. 84dB; 65°C/W θJA in same MSOP-8. | Optimized for 3.3V logic-compatible systems; insufficient output drive for 12V LCD gamma rails. | Use LMV722MMX/NOPB in cost-sensitive 3.3V IoT nodes; retain OPA2743EA/250 for 12V industrial or display applications. |
Compared with OPA2333AIDR and LMV722MMX/NOPB, OPA2743EA/250 uniquely balances 7MHz bandwidth, 12V operation, rail-to-rail I/O, and 1pA bias current - making it the only option among the three qualified for LCD gamma correction and high-dynamic-range portable instrumentation simultaneously.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for OPA2743EA/250?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for OPA2743EA/250 is 13.2V between V+ and V– pins. Continuous operation is specified from 3.5V to 12V single supply or ±1.75V to ±6V dual supply. Exceeding 12V during normal operation risks parametric degradation, though brief transients up to 13.2V are tolerated per absolute maximum ratings.
Does OPA2743EA/250 require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, OPA2743EA/250 is internally compensated and unity-gain stable. It maintains phase margin >60° at G = +1 across its full operating temperature and supply range. No external compensation components are needed, though a 20Ω resistor in series with the feedback path improves capacitive load drive up to 1000pF.
Can OPA2743EA/250 drive a 1kΩ load rail-to-rail?
Yes - OPA2743EA/250 delivers output swing within 325mV of each rail when driving a 1kΩ load, while maintaining ≥86dB open-loop gain. This meets rail-to-rail output requirements for most 12V systems where 95% of full scale is acceptable, such as LCD gamma reference buffering.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the OPA2743EA/250 MSOP-8 package?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) for OPA2743EA/250 in the VSSOP-8 (DGK) package is 150°C/W, measured under JEDEC-standard PCB conditions (2-layer board, 1in² copper). With proper thermal vias to inner ground planes, actual θJA can be reduced to ~85°C/W in optimized layouts.
Is OPA2743EA/250 suitable for automotive under-hood applications?
OPA2743EA/250 is specified for –40°C to +85°C operation and qualified per AEC-Q200 stress testing for passive components, but it is not AEC-Q100 qualified as an integrated circuit. It is appropriate for automotive cabin applications (e.g., infotainment, HVAC sensors), but not for under-hood engine control units requiring AEC-Q100 Grade 0 or 1 qualification.
