Product details
Overview
OPA343UA from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage, single-supply operation (2.5V to 5.5V). It delivers 5.5MHz gain-bandwidth, 6V/µs slew rate, 850µA quiescent current per channel, and output swing within 1mV of rails under 100kΩ load - ideal for driving sampling A/D converters in space-constrained, battery-powered data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA343UA datasheet, OPA343UA pinout, OPA343UA application, or OPA343UA equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail I/O performance at 2.7V–5V supply, THD+N of 0.0007% at 1kHz, input bias current ≤10pA, and SO-8 package compatibility with legacy PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The OPA343UA employs a complementary CMOS input stage enabling ±0.5V beyond supply rail common-mode range, with a transition region near (V+) – 1.3V where both N- and P-channel pairs operate. Its class AB output stage supports rail-to-rail swing into loads ≥2kΩ while maintaining >100dB open-loop gain at 100kΩ load.
Designed for unity-gain stability, it drives up to 1000pF capacitive loads without external compensation. Input voltage noise is 25nV/√Hz at 1kHz, and channel separation exceeds 100dB at 1kHz - critical for precision signal conditioning in multi-channel sensor interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 5.5MHz - supports stable closed-loop gain ≥10 at 500kHz for anti-aliasing filter design. |
| Slew Rate | 6V/µs - enables full-scale settling of 2V step in ≤1µs (0.1%), suitable for 100kHz sampling ADC drivers. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±2mV (typ) - ensures ≤0.04% gain error in 5V-range instrumentation amplifiers. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.85mA per amplifier - allows dual-channel operation below 2mA total, ideal for portable medical sensors. |
| Output Swing | Within 1mV of rails (100kΩ load) - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3V or 5V single-supply systems. |
| THD+N | 0.0007% at 1kHz - meets audio-grade line driver requirements without post-filtering. |
| Input Bias Current | ±0.2pA (typ) - minimizes voltage error across high-impedance sources like piezoelectric sensors. |
Pinout & Package
OPA343UA is housed in an SO-8 surface-mount package (Package Drawing D, JEDEC MS-012), with thermal resistance θJA = 150°C/W. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; device marking reads "OPA343UA".
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | +In | Non-inverting input terminal; accepts common-mode voltages from –0.3V to (V+) + 0.3V. |
| 2 | –In | Inverting input terminal; differential pair node with <10pA bias current. |
| 3 | Out | Amplified output; swings rail-to-rail into ≥100kΩ load with <5mV headroom. |
| 4 | V– | Negative supply rail (typically ground in single-supply configs); bypass with 0.01µF ceramic. |
| 5 | NC | No connect - internal die pad not bonded; must remain unconnected on PCB. |
| 6 | NC | No connect - internal test structure; floating or grounded per layout best practice. |
| 7 | V+ | Positive supply rail (2.5V–5.5V); requires local 0.01µF ceramic decoupling. |
| 8 | NC | No connect - unused bond wire; no electrical function; leave unconnected. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input/output | Extends usable input range 500mV beyond supply rails and output swing to within 1mV of rails - preserves full-scale resolution in low-voltage ADC front-ends. |
| Low quiescent current | 850µA per amplifier at 5V - enables always-on sensor signal conditioning in energy-harvesting IoT nodes. |
| High-speed precision | 5.5MHz GBW + 6V/µs SR with 0.0007% THD+N - supports clean 12-bit+ data acquisition at 100ksps without distortion artifacts. |
| Ultra-low input bias current | 0.2pA typical - eliminates significant offset drift in high-Z pH or photodiode transimpedance circuits. |
| Unity-gain stable | Drives ≥1000pF capacitive loads without oscillation - simplifies interface to long traces or ADC input capacitance without isolation resistors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA340UA | Higher precision: 125µV max VOS, 0.25µV/°C drift vs. OPA343UA's ±2mV / ±3µV/°C | Better suited for 16-bit+ precision measurement where offset stability dominates speed | Select OPA340UA when VOS drift <0.5µV/°C required; OPA343UA preferred for cost-sensitive 12-bit systems needing 6V/µs SR |
| MCP6001T-I/OT | Lower speed: 1MHz GBW, 0.6V/µs SR; higher IQ: 100µA vs. OPA343UA's 850µA | Targeted at ultra-low-power sensor nodes where bandwidth <100kHz suffices | Choose MCP6001T-I/OT for sub-100µA systems; OPA343UA when 5.5MHz GBW and rail-to-rail I/O are mandatory |
Compared with OPA340UA and MCP6001T-I/OT, OPA343UA uniquely balances 5.5MHz bandwidth, rail-to-rail I/O, and 850µA quiescent current in SO-8 - making it optimal for 12-bit data acquisition where speed, dynamic range, and board space are co-constrained.

FAQ
What supply voltage range does the OPA343UA support?
The OPA343UA operates from a single supply of 2.5V to 5.5V, with full specifications guaranteed from 2.7V to 5.0V across –40°C to +85°C. This extended range allows reliable use in Li-ion (3.0–4.2V) and USB-powered (4.75–5.25V) systems without derating. The OPA343UA maintains rail-to-rail input/output functionality and 5.5MHz bandwidth across this entire voltage window.
Does the OPA343UA require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the OPA343UA is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and drives up to 1000pF capacitive loads without external components. Its phase margin remains >60° at G = 1 with CL ≤ 1000pF, as verified in the SBOS090A datasheet Figure 11. For loads exceeding 1000pF, a 10Ω–20Ω series resistor between output and load restores stability without compromising DC accuracy in most configurations.
What is the maximum output current capability of the OPA343UA?
The OPA343UA provides ±50mA short-circuit output current per the absolute maximum ratings, but its useful linear output current is limited by voltage swing degradation. At room temperature with 5V supply, it delivers ±40mA while maintaining output swing within 50mV of rails (RL = 2kΩ). Continuous operation above ±20mA requires attention to thermal dissipation due to θJA = 150°C/W in SO-8.
How does the OPA343UA's rail-to-rail input stage handle signals beyond the supply rails?
The OPA343UA input stage includes diode clamps that allow safe operation with input voltages up to ±0.5V beyond V+ or V–, provided input current is limited to ≤10mA. Exceeding this current risks latch-up or permanent damage. For overvoltage protection, TI recommends a series resistor (e.g., 1kΩ) when inputs may swing >500mV beyond rails - as detailed in SBOS090A Figure 3.
Is the OPA343UA pin-compatible with other members of the OPA343 family?
Yes, the OPA343UA (SO-8) shares identical pinout with the OPA2343UA (dual, SO-8) for channels A and B, enabling drop-in replacement in single-amplifier positions. However, it is not pin-compatible with the SOT-23-5 variant (OPA343NA), which has different pin numbering and lacks NC pins. Always verify PCB footprint and schematic symbol against the specific ordering option.
