Product details
Overview
OPA349SA/3K from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for ultra-low-power battery-operated systems. It delivers 70kHz gain-bandwidth, 1µA quiescent current, and operates from 1.8V to 5.5V supply, with input extending 200mV beyond rails and output swinging within 350mV of rails - enabling high dynamic range in space-constrained portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the OPA349SA/3K datasheet, OPA349SA/3K pinout, OPA349SA/3K application, or OPA349SA/3K equivalent, key selection criteria include micropower operation under 1µA, rail-to-rail I/O capability at sub-2V supply, SC70-5 package footprint, unity-gain stability without external compensation, and verified performance across 0°C to +70°C ambient.
Technical Context
The OPA349SA/3K employs a complementary differential input stage (N-channel + P-channel pairs) to achieve rail-to-rail common-mode input range, with a 400mV transition region where both pairs conduct - requiring design awareness for CMRR and THD degradation in that zone. Its unity-gain stable architecture eliminates need for external phase compensation.
It uses a Class AB output stage delivering ±8mA drive into 10kΩ loads while maintaining rail-to-rail swing, and features internal reference current generation enabling stable operation down to 1.8V with minimal supply sensitivity across temperature and voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8V to 5.5V - supports direct connection to single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), NiMH (1.2V×2), or coin-cell (3V) without regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 1µA typical - enables >1-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes powered by CR2032 (225mAh). |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 70kHz - sufficient for anti-aliasing filters, sensor signal conditioning, and low-speed A/D driver applications. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | (V−) − 0.2V to (V+) + 0.2V - allows direct sensing of signals below ground or above supply in single-supply systems. |
| Output Swing | Within 350mV of rails (RL = 10kΩ) - preserves >90% of full-scale dynamic range at 1.8V supply. |
| Open-Loop Gain | 90dB typical - ensures <0.1% gain error in unity-gain buffer configurations with 10kΩ feedback. |
| Input Bias Current | 10pA max - permits use of >10MΩ source resistors without significant offset drift or signal attenuation. |
Pinout & Package
OPA349SA/3K is packaged in SC70-5 (DCK), a 1.25mm × 2.0mm surface-mount package with 0.65mm pitch, optimized for high-density portable PCBs. Thermal resistance θJA is 250°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (V−) | Negative supply / ground reference | Return path for bias current and output stage; must be low-impedance for rail-to-rail output fidelity. |
| 2 (+In) | Non-inverting input | Differential input node with 10pA max bias current; accepts signals up to 200mV beyond V− or V+. |
| 3 (−In) | Inverting input | Differential input node; used for feedback in standard configurations; matched to +In for CMRR optimization. |
| 4 (Out) | Amplifier output | Class AB stage capable of ±8mA drive; swings to within 350mV of V− or V+ under 10kΩ load. |
| 5 (V+) | Positive supply | Primary power rail; bypassing with 0.01µF ceramic capacitor near pin is mandatory for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input with 200mV beyond rails | Enables direct interface to unbuffered sensors or ADC references without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Unity-gain stable, no external compensation | Reduces BOM count and layout area; eliminates risk of instability due to incorrect capacitor selection. |
| 1µA quiescent current at 1.8V–5.5V | Permits continuous operation in energy-harvesting nodes (e.g., solar-powered remote sensors) with µW-level budgets. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower rail-to-rail op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2401IDBVR | Same 1µA IQ and rail-to-rail I/O, but 5.5kHz GBW (vs 70kHz); higher input offset (±1.5mV typ vs ±2mV max). | Lower bandwidth limits use in >1kHz sensor filtering; better PSRR (100dB) suits noisy supply environments. | Select TLV2401IDBVR when supply rejection >90dB is critical and bandwidth ≤5kHz suffices. |
| OPA347UA/2K5 | 20µA IQ, 350kHz GBW, SO-8 package; wider supply range (1.8V–5.5V), same rail-to-rail I/O. | Higher drive strength (±20mA) and speed support active filters and faster settling; larger SO-8 footprint increases board area. | Select OPA347UA/2K5 when system requires >100kHz signal chain bandwidth and can accommodate SO-8 layout. |
Compared with TLV2401IDBVR and OPA347UA/2K5, the OPA349SA/3K uniquely balances ultra-low 1µA quiescent current with 70kHz bandwidth and SC70-5 size - making it optimal for space- and energy-constrained applications where neither extreme micropower nor high speed dominates.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range specified for the OPA349SA/3K?
The OPA349SA/3K is specified for operation from 0°C to +70°C ambient temperature. While the device may function outside this range, electrical parameters including input offset voltage, CMRR, and quiescent current are only guaranteed within this interval per the SBOS121B datasheet. The SC70-5 package variant (OPA349SA/3K) shares the same temperature specification as the SOT23-5 version.
Does the OPA349SA/3K require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the OPA349SA/3K is internally compensated and unity-gain stable. It does not require external capacitors or resistor networks to maintain stability in buffer, follower, or gain-of-one configurations - a key differentiator from many other micropower op amps that demand careful external phase compensation.
What is the maximum output current drive capability of the OPA349SA/3K?
The OPA349SA/3K delivers ±8mA output current into a 10kΩ load while maintaining rail-to-rail swing. Short-circuit current is ±10mA. This drive strength supports direct interfacing with ADC input capacitors, LED indicators, or moderate-impedance sensor bridges without external buffering.
Can the OPA349SA/3K operate from a 1.8V supply while maintaining rail-to-rail input and output performance?
Yes, the OPA349SA/3K is fully specified and tested from 1.8V to 5.5V. At 1.8V, it retains rail-to-rail input (extending 200mV beyond rails) and output swing (within 350mV of rails at 10kΩ), with only minor reduction in open-loop gain and bandwidth - enabling robust operation across full battery discharge profiles.
What package type and marking code correspond to the OPA349SA/3K orderable part?
The OPA349SA/3K is supplied in the SC70-5 (DCK) package with 5 terminals and a body size of 1.25mm × 2.0mm. Its top-side marking is "S49", as confirmed in TI's PACKAGE OPTION ADDENDUM and ordering information tables.
