Product details
Overview
OPA301AIDR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, low-noise, fast-settling CMOS operational amplifier optimized for 16-bit ADC input driving. It delivers 150MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 3nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and 150ns settling to 16-bit accuracy at 5V supply, operating from +2.7V to +5.5V in SOIC-8 package.
For engineers reviewing the OPA301AIDR datasheet, OPA301AIDR pinout, OPA301AIDR application, or OPA301AIDR equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail output swing (±100mV), shutdown current of 5µA, THD+N of 0.003% at 1kHz, and compatibility with high-speed data acquisition systems requiring precision analog front-end performance.
Technical Context
The OPA301AIDR implements a classic two-stage CMOS topology with folded-cascode gain stage and Class AB output driver, enabling unity-gain stability and 80V/µs slew rate. Its input stage features ultra-low bias current (±0.1pA typ) and high impedance (10¹³ Ω || 3pF), supporting high-impedance sensor interfaces without signal degradation.
Unlike the OPA300, the OPA301AIDR lacks an enable/shutdown pin - confirmed by pin configuration diagrams (Fig 4-4) and Table 4-1, where pins 1 and 5 are marked NC and no Enable function is listed. It is specified over −40°C to +125°C and supports single-supply operation with common-mode input range extending to (V−) − 0.2V and (V+) − 0.9V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth | 150MHz unity-gain bandwidth enables stable amplification of signals up to ~75MHz in closed-loop G=2 configuration. |
| Settling Time | 150ns to 16-bit accuracy ensures precise sampling for 1.25MSPS ADCs like ADS8401 without aperture error. |
| Voltage Noise | 3nV/√Hz at >1MHz preserves SNR in wideband preamplifier stages before digitization. |
| THD+N | 0.003% at 1kHz, 3VPP output minimizes harmonic distortion in IF/RF signal chains and active filters. |
| Supply Range | +2.7V to +5.5V single supply simplifies power design in portable and industrial instrumentation. |
| Output Swing | Within 100mV of rails (RL = 2kΩ) supports full-scale utilization of 16-bit ADC input ranges. |
| Input Bias Current | ±0.1pA typical enables direct connection to high-impedance sources (e.g., piezoelectric sensors, photodiode transimpedance nodes) without significant offset drift. |
Pinout & Package
OPA301AIDR is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package per TI's orderable information and mechanical drawings. Pin 1 and Pin 5 are No Connect (NC); functional pins follow standard op-amp configuration with non-inverting input on Pin 3, inverting input on Pin 2, output on Pin 6, V+ on Pin 7, and V− on Pin 4.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | No Connection | Unbonded; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice - no internal circuitry attached. |
| Pin 2 | Inverting Input (−In) | Differential input node; accepts feedback network for closed-loop gain control and signal inversion. |
| Pin 3 | Non-Inverting Input (+In) | High-impedance input node; used for reference biasing or non-inverting signal routing. |
| Pin 4 | Negative Supply (V−) | Ground or negative rail connection; defines lower common-mode and output swing limit. |
| Pin 5 | No Connection | Unbonded; no internal connection - avoid routing traces or placing vias directly beneath. |
| Pin 6 | Output (VOUT) | Class AB buffered output capable of sourcing/sinking ≥70mA; drives 100Ω loads while maintaining >95dB open-loop gain. |
| Pin 7 | Positive Supply (V+) | Primary power rail; supplies internal bias and output stage - requires local 0.1µF ceramic bypass to V−. |
| Pin 8 | Not Used / NC | Per Figure 4-4 and Table 4-1, Pin 8 has no function - not an enable pin (unlike OPA300). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unity-gain stable architecture | Eliminates need for external compensation components in G ≥ 1 configurations, reducing BOM count and board area. |
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Delivers >4.8VPP output from 5V supply into 2kΩ load, maximizing dynamic range for 16-bit ADC drivers. |
| Ultra-low input voltage noise | 3nV/√Hz density ensures minimal added noise floor when amplifying low-level signals from precision sensors. |
| High open-loop gain | 106dB typical AOL maintains <1ppm gain error in precision gain blocks with 1000× closed-loop gain. |
| Wide common-mode input range | Operates with inputs as low as (V−) − 0.2V, enabling level-shifting and single-supply interfacing with bipolar signal sources. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA300AIDR | Includes enable/shutdown pin (Pin 8); otherwise identical AC specs and pinout except for NC vs Enable mapping. | Required where power cycling or battery-saving shutdown is needed; incompatible if PCB uses Pin 8 as NC. | Select OPA300AIDR only if system-level power sequencing mandates active shutdown - OPA301AIDR is preferred for fixed-on, low-noise applications. |
| OPA837IDBVR | Higher 310MHz GBW, 110V/µs slew rate, but higher 4.3nV/√Hz noise and 13.5mA IQ; SOT-23-5 package. | Better suited for >100MHz signal chain stages where speed outweighs noise/power trade-offs. | Choose OPA837IDBVR when bandwidth >200MHz is required and 16-bit settling time is secondary to raw speed. |
Compared with OPA300AIDR, OPA301AIDR removes the enable function to improve PSRR and reduce die area - making it more suitable for always-on, noise-sensitive ADC drivers. Versus OPA837IDBVR, it trades bandwidth for lower noise and quiescent current, better matching 16-bit precision system requirements.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the OPA301AIDR can drive stably in unity-gain configuration?
The OPA301AIDR supports stable unity-gain operation with ≤5pF total capacitive load, including PCB parasitics. As shown in Figure 5-16, adding a 40Ω series resistor enables stable operation with 10pF loads. Layout practices must minimize trace capacitance - typical board parasitics exceeding 1pF risk peaking or oscillation without external isolation resistance.
Does the OPA301AIDR have a shutdown or enable pin?
No, the OPA301AIDR does not include a shutdown or enable pin. Pin 8 is unconnected (NC), and Figures 4-4 and Table 4-1 confirm no enable functionality. This distinguishes it from the OPA300AIDR, which uses Pin 8 as an enable input referenced to V−. The OPA301AIDR is intended for always-on operation.
What is the common-mode input voltage range for the OPA301AIDR at 5V supply?
At VS = 5V, the OPA301AIDR supports a common-mode input range from (V−) − 0.2V to (V+) − 0.9V, i.e., −0.2V to +4.1V when V− = 0V. This allows input signals to extend 200mV below ground and remain 900mV below the positive rail - essential for single-supply interfacing with bipolar signal sources.
Can the OPA301AIDR drive a 100Ω load while maintaining 16-bit accuracy?
Yes, the OPA301AIDR delivers 300–500mV from each rail into 100Ω loads (per Section 5.4), yielding ~4.0VPP output swing at 5V supply. Settling time degrades to 90ns (0.01%) under this condition, still sufficient for 1.25MSPS ADCs. Output impedance remains <20Ω up to 1MHz (Fig 5-28), ensuring minimal gain error.
Is the OPA301AIDR suitable for driving ADCs with differential input architectures?
Yes - the OPA301AIDR is commonly used in single-ended-to-differential conversion circuits with a second matched amplifier or transformer. Its low THD+N (0.003%), 150MHz bandwidth, and excellent channel matching (when paired with OPA2301) support high-performance differential ADC drivers like those for ADS8401, as validated in TI's TIPD182 reference design.
