Product details
Overview
OPA2836IRMCT from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, ultra-low-power, rail-to-rail output, negative-rail input voltage-feedback operational amplifier. It delivers 205 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 560 V/µs slew rate, and 1 mA typical quiescent current per channel at 5 V supply, operating from –40°C to +125°C - ideal for portable SAR ADC drivers and low-power signal conditioning in space-constrained industrial systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA2836IRMCT datasheet, OPA2836IRMCT pinout, OPA2836IRMCT application, or OPA2836IRMCT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 205 MHz bandwidth at 1 mA/ch power consumption, rail-to-rail output swing with –0.2 V input capability, and validated performance across extended temperature range without thermal derating.
Technical Context
The OPA2836IRMCT implements a voltage-feedback architecture optimized for high-speed, low-power operation. Its internal design supports stable unity-gain configuration with 205 MHz bandwidth and achieves 22 ns (0.1%) settling time on 2-V step signals, enabled by fast overdrive recovery (60 ns) and low 4.6 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 100 kHz.
It features independent power-down pins (PD1/PD2) enabling channel-level sleep mode with <1.5 µA quiescent current per disabled amplifier, while maintaining full rail-to-rail output swing (within 20 mV of rails) and 116 dB CMRR - critical for precision DC-coupled gain stages in battery-powered instrumentation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth | 205 MHz at G = 1 - enables accurate amplification of multi-MHz sensor or ADC interface signals without phase loss. |
| Slew Rate | 560 V/µs - supports clean 2-V step reproduction in ≤3 ns, essential for driving fast-switching ADC inputs. |
| Quiescent Current | 1 mA per channel - allows dual-channel high-speed amplification in sub-20-mW total power budget at 5 V. |
| Input Voltage Range | –0.2 V to +3.9 V (5-V supply) - accepts signals below ground, simplifying single-supply interfacing with bipolar sensors. |
| Output Drive | ±45 mA - drives 1-kΩ loads to full rail-to-rail swing, sufficient for direct connection to SAR ADC reference buffers. |
| THD + Noise | –130 dBc THD and –117.6 dBc SNR at 1 kHz - preserves dynamic range in audio and precision measurement front-ends. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and downhole sensing applications. |
Pinout & Package
The OPA2836IRMCT is packaged in a 10-pin UQFN (Ultra-Thin Quad Flat No-Lead) with 2.00 mm × 2.00 mm body size and 0.4-mm pitch, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and thermal performance (RθJA = 143.2°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN1– | Inverting input, Channel 1 | Differential node for closed-loop feedback; supports –0.2 V common-mode input with 116 dB CMRR. |
| VIN1+ | Non-inverting input, Channel 1 | High-impedance node (100 MΩ || pF) for sensor or DAC interface with minimal loading. |
| VOUT1 | Output, Channel 1 | Rail-to-rail capable (within 20 mV of rails), drives ≥45 mA into resistive loads. |
| PD1 | Power-down control, Channel 1 | Active-low logic input; pulls quiescent current to 0.5 µA when driven ≤0.7 V (VS–). |
| VIN2– | Inverting input, Channel 2 | Independent channel with –120 dB crosstalk at 10 kHz - suitable for dual-path signal chains. |
| VIN2+ | Non-inverting input, Channel 2 | Matched offset drift (±1.1 µV/°C) ensures tracking between channels in differential configurations. |
| VOUT2 | Output, Channel 2 | Fully symmetric to VOUT1; maintains 22 ns 0.1% settling on 2-V steps with identical drive strength. |
| VS+ | Positive supply | Accepts 2.5 V to 5.5 V; PSRR of 108 dB suppresses supply noise coupling into signal path. |
| VS– | Negative supply | Reference for dual-supply operation (±1.25 V to ±2.75 V) or ground in single-supply systems. |
| PD2 | Power-down control, Channel 2 | Independent enable/disable; allows asymmetric power management in mixed-signal SoC interfaces. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low power / high speed ratio | 205 MHz bandwidth at only 1 mA/ch - sets industry benchmark for portable high-frequency amplifiers. |
| True negative-rail input | Operates with inputs down to –0.2 V (5-V supply), eliminating level-shifting for bipolar transducer outputs. |
| Channel-independent power-down | PD1/PD2 reduce each amplifier's IQ to 0.5 µA without affecting the other channel's bias or output state. |
| Low distortion at high frequency | –85 dBc HD2 and –105 dBc HD3 at 1 MHz - preserves signal integrity in wideband RF sampling front-ends. |
| Extended temperature qualification | Full electrical specs guaranteed from –40°C to +125°C - no derating required for industrial or automotive use. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel, high-speed, low-power operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2835IDGSR | Lower bandwidth (30 MHz), lower IQ (0.25 mA/ch), same UQFN-10 package. | Better suited for sub-10-MHz sensor signal chains where power is more critical than speed. | Select OPA2835IDGSR when bandwidth demand is <50 MHz and system power budget is <1 mW per channel. |
| LMH6619MMX/NOPB | Higher IQ (1.25 mA/ch), higher noise (10 nV/√Hz), SOIC-8 package, rail-to-rail input/output. | Preferred for legacy designs requiring through-hole compatibility and RRO input for AC-coupled sources. | Choose LMH6619MMX/NOPB only if rail-to-rail input is mandatory and UQFN assembly capability is unavailable. |
Compared with OPA2836IRMCT, OPA2835IDGSR trades 85% bandwidth for 75% lower power, while LMH6619MMX/NOPB offers RRO input at the cost of 117% higher input noise and larger footprint - making OPA2836IRMCT optimal for new high-density, high-speed, battery-sensitive designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for the OPA2836IRMCT?
The OPA2836IRMCT supports a maximum total supply voltage of 5.5 V across VS+ and VS– terminals. This applies to both single-supply (e.g., VS+ = 5.5 V, VS– = 0 V) and dual-supply (e.g., VS+ = +2.75 V, VS– = –2.75 V) configurations. Exceeding 5.5 V risks permanent damage per absolute maximum ratings, and operation above this limit is not characterized or guaranteed.
Does the OPA2836IRMCT support rail-to-rail input?
No, the OPA2836IRMCT does not support rail-to-rail input. It features negative-rail input capability - allowing the input common-mode range to extend 0.2 V below VS– - but the upper input limit is +3.9 V with a 5-V supply (i.e., 0.1 V below VS+). For true rail-to-rail input, consider alternatives like the OPA2365 or LMH6619, though these differ in power, speed, and noise performance versus the OPA2836IRMCT.
What is the typical power-down current for each channel of the OPA2836IRMCT?
The typical power-down current for each channel of the OPA2836IRMCT is 0.5 µA when the respective PD1 or PD2 pin is driven low (≤0.7 V relative to VS–). This value is specified at TA = 25°C and VS = 5 V, with a maximum of 1.5 µA across the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range. Both channels can be powered down independently without affecting the other.
Can the OPA2836IRMCT drive a 50-Ω load directly?
The OPA2836IRMCT is not designed for direct 50-Ω load driving. Its specified output current is ±45 mA into resistive loads, which corresponds to a minimum load of ~111 Ω at 5 V supply (VOUT = 2.5 V). Driving 50 Ω would require >50 mA and cause output saturation or thermal stress. For 50-Ω transmission lines, use a dedicated line driver (e.g., THS3201) or add an external buffer stage - the OPA2836IRMCT remains optimal for high-impedance ADC or filter interfaces.
Is the OPA2836IRMCT pin-compatible with other OPA2836 variants?
Yes, the OPA2836IRMCT (UQFN-10) shares identical pinout and function mapping with the OPA2836IRMC (UQFN-10) and OPA2836IRUN (WQFN-10) variants - all feature 10-pin layouts with matching VIN1–, VIN1+, VOUT1, PD1, VIN2+, VIN2–, VOUT2, PD2, VS+, and VS– assignments. However, it is not pin-compatible with the SOIC-8 (OPA2836ID) or VSSOP-10 (OPA2836IDGS) packages due to differing pin counts and arrangements.
