Product details
Overview
OPA349UA/2K5G4 from Texas Instruments is a single, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for ultra-low-power battery-operated systems. It delivers 70kHz gain-bandwidth, 1µA quiescent current, 90dB open-loop gain, and operates from 1.8V to 5.5V supply - enabling precision signal conditioning in smoke detectors and portable medical sensors.
For engineers reviewing the OPA349UA/2K5G4 datasheet, OPA349UA/2K5G4 pinout, OPA349UA/2K5G4 application, or OPA349UA/2K5G4 equivalent, key selection criteria include micropower operation below 2µA, rail-to-rail I/O swing within 350mV of rails, unity-gain stability without external compensation, and SO-8 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The OPA349UA/2K5G4 uses a complementary differential input stage (N-channel + P-channel pairs) to achieve rail-to-rail input common-mode range extending 200mV beyond both supply rails. Its unity-gain stable architecture eliminates need for external phase compensation, supporting direct use in buffers and filters.
Output stage delivers ±8mA drive into 10kΩ loads while swinging to within 350mV of V– and V+ rails at 5.5V supply. Input bias current remains ≤10pA (max), enabling high-impedance sensor interfacing with feedback resistors up to 10MΩ without significant offset error.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8V to 5.5V - supports operation across full Li-ion discharge curve (4.2V → 2.7V) and single-cell alkaline (1.5V with boost or 3.0V nominal). |
| Quiescent Current | 1µA (typ) - enables multi-year battery life in always-on remote sensors and low-duty-cycle smoke detectors. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 70kHz - sufficient for anti-aliasing filtering before 10-bit ADCs sampling at ≤10ksps in portable instrumentation. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | (V–) – 0.2V to (V+) + 0.2V - allows direct sensing of signals referenced to ground or V+ in single-supply systems. |
| Output Swing (RL = 10kΩ) | Within 350mV of rails - preserves >90% dynamic range at 3.3V supply for 12-bit ADC interfaces. |
| Open-Loop Gain | 90dB (min 74dB) - ensures <0.1% gain error with 10kΩ/10kΩ feedback network at room temperature. |
| Input Bias Current | ±10pA (max) - permits use of 10MΩ source resistors with <100µV input offset contribution. |
Pinout & Package
OPA349UA/2K5G4 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) surface-mount package measuring 4.9mm × 3.9mm × 1.75mm, RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish and MSL Level-2 moisture sensitivity rating.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NC | No internal connection - must be left floating or grounded per layout best practices; not used for signal or power. |
| 2 | V+ | Positive supply pin - requires local 0.01µF ceramic bypass capacitor to ground for stability in micropower operation. |
| 3 | Out | Amplifier output - capable of sourcing/sinking ±8mA; output swing limited to ≥350mV from rails under 10kΩ load. |
| 4 | NC | No internal connection - electrically isolated; no routing or thermal relief required. |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection - unused pin; avoid solder bridging or unintended coupling in high-impedance circuits. |
| 6 | –In | Inverting input - high-impedance node (10¹³Ω || 4pF); sensitive to PCB leakage and ESD; guard ring recommended. |
| 7 | +In | Non-inverting input - same impedance as –In; common-mode range extends 200mV beyond rails for true single-supply operation. |
| 8 | V– | Negative supply pin - typically ground in single-supply configurations; must be decoupled identically to V+. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input and output | Enables full utilization of 1.8V–5.5V supply range: input accepts signals from –0.2V to V+ + 0.2V; output drives to within 350mV of either rail. |
| 1µA quiescent current | Reduces average system power by >50% vs. comparable 5µA op amps - critical for coin-cell-powered fire sensors with 10-year shelf life. |
| Unity-gain stable | Operates reliably as buffer or gain-of-one amplifier without external compensation components, simplifying layout and BOM. |
| Low input bias current (10pA max) | Supports high-Z transducer interfaces (e.g., pH electrodes, piezoresistive strain gauges) without requiring guard traces or active guarding. |
| Wide temperature specification | Rated for 0°C to +85°C operating range - validated for use in automotive cabin modules and industrial handheld test equipment. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-power operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2401CDR | Same 1µA IQ and rail-to-rail I/O, but 5.5kHz GBW (vs. 70kHz) and 0°C to +70°C temp range only. | Limited to DC–low-frequency applications (e.g., thermocouple cold-junction compensation), not suitable for 10ksps ADC buffering. | Select TLV2401CDR only when bandwidth <10kHz suffices and extended temperature range is unnecessary. |
| OPA347UA/2K5 | 20µA IQ (20× higher), 350kHz GBW, same SO-8 package and 1.8V–5.5V supply, but not specified below 0°C. | Better for higher-speed microcontroller-based systems where power budget allows; unsuitable for 10-year battery life targets. | Choose OPA347UA/2K5 when 350kHz bandwidth and faster settling (2.5µs) are required, accepting 20× higher quiescent current. |
Compared with TLV2401CDR and OPA347UA/2K5, the OPA349UA/2K5G4 uniquely balances 70kHz bandwidth, 1µA quiescent current, and 0°C to +85°C operation in SO-8 - making it the only option for long-life, single-supply, medium-bandwidth sensor interfaces requiring guaranteed performance across industrial temperatures.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the OPA349UA/2K5G4?
The OPA349UA/2K5G4 is specified for operation from 0°C to +85°C, with storage range from –65°C to +150°C. While the OPA2349 dual variant supports –40°C, the single OPA349UA/2K5G4 is not characterized below 0°C - design validation below this threshold requires customer testing.
Does the OPA349UA/2K5G4 require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the OPA349UA/2K5G4 is internally compensated for unity-gain stability. It can be used directly as a voltage follower or in gain-of-one configurations without external capacitors or resistors - a key advantage over many micropower op amps that require external phase compensation.
What is the maximum output current capability of the OPA349UA/2K5G4?
The OPA349UA/2K5G4 delivers ±8mA continuous output current into resistive loads. Short-circuit current is ±10mA, and capacitive load drive is characterized up to 500pF with appropriate layout techniques - exceeding typical requirements for driving 12-bit ADC inputs or LED bias networks.
Can the OPA349UA/2K5G4 operate from a 1.8V supply while maintaining rail-to-rail output swing?
Yes, the OPA349UA/2K5G4 maintains rail-to-rail input and output functionality down to 1.8V supply. At 1.8V, output swing is specified to within 350mV of each rail under 10kΩ load, preserving usable dynamic range for low-voltage ADC interfaces in energy-harvesting systems.
How does the OPA349UA/2K5G4 handle input signals beyond the supply rails?
The OPA349UA/2K5G4 input stage includes diode clamps to the supply rails. Input signals exceeding (V–) – 0.5V or (V+) + 0.5V must be current-limited to ≤10mA to prevent damage. The specified 200mV rail extension applies only within absolute maximum ratings - external protection is required for overvoltage conditions.
