Product details
Overview
OPA350UAG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage, single-supply operation. It delivers 38 MHz gain-bandwidth, 22 V/µs slew rate, and 5 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, enabling high-fidelity signal conditioning in space-constrained A/D converter driver and video line-driver applications with 75-Ω load capability.
For engineers reviewing the OPA350UAG4 datasheet, OPA350UAG4 pinout, OPA350UAG4 application, or OPA350UAG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail swing within 10 mV of supply rails at 10-kΩ load, THD+N of 0.0006% at 1 kHz, and guaranteed operation from 2.7 V to 5.5 V across −40°C to 85°C.
Technical Context
The OPA350UAG4 employs a complementary CMOS input stage-parallel N-channel and P-channel differential pairs-to achieve rail-to-rail input common-mode range extending 100 mV beyond both supply rails. Its class AB output stage enables rail-to-rail output swing while maintaining >100 dB open-loop gain up to 10 kHz.
It features unity-gain stability and drives capacitive loads up to 100 pF without external compensation. The device uses laser trimming to minimize offset voltage mismatch between input stages, ensuring smooth transition behavior and stable CMRR/PSRR outside the ±400-mV internal transition region.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-bandwidth product | 38 MHz - supports stable closed-loop gain ≥10 up to ~3.8 MHz, suitable for medium-speed ADC buffering. |
| Slew rate | 22 V/µs - enables clean 2.5 VPP output at 1 MHz without slewing distortion in G = 1 configuration. |
| Input voltage noise density | 5 nV/√Hz at 10 kHz - preserves SNR in audio and precision sensor interfaces with bandwidth <100 kHz. |
| THD+N | 0.0006% at 1 kHz, RL = 600 Ω, VO = 2.5 VPP - meets broadcast-grade video and high-fidelity audio requirements. |
| Output swing from rail | ≤10 mV at 10-kΩ load - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3 V or 5 V single-supply systems. |
| Supply voltage range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - operates from Li-ion battery (3.0–4.2 V) or regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails without level-shifting. |
| Quiescent current | 5.2 mA per amplifier - balances speed and power for portable instrumentation and battery-powered signal chains. |
Pinout & Package
The OPA350UAG4 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package measuring 3.91 mm × 4.90 mm, with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and 1.27 mm pitch.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No connect (NC) | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice. |
| 2 | Inverting input (−In) | Differential input node; accepts signals from −0.1 V to (V+) + 0.1 V with rail-to-rail CM range. |
| 3 | Noninverting input (+In) | Differential input node; same CM range as Pin 2; laser-trimmed for matched bias current (<10 pA). |
| 4 | Negative supply (V−) | Ground reference for single-supply operation; supports inputs down to −0.1 V relative to this pin. |
| 5 | No connect (NC) | Internally unconnected; no electrical function; avoid routing signals or traces to this pad. |
| 6 | Output | Class AB rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing/sinking ±40 mA; swings to within 10 mV of V− or V+ under 10-kΩ load. |
| 7 | Positive supply (V+) | Single-supply input; accepts 2.7–5.5 V; requires local 0.01 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to V−. |
| 8 | No connect (NC) | Internally unconnected; electrically isolated; PCB pad may be used for thermal relief or grounding if needed. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input | CM range extends 100 mV beyond both supply rails, enabling direct interfacing with DAC outputs or sensors near supply limits. |
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 10 mV of V+ and V− at light loads, preserving >99% of available voltage headroom in 3.3 V systems. |
| Low THD+N | 0.0006% at 1 kHz ensures minimal harmonic contamination in video sync pulses and audio midband signals. |
| 75-Ω drive capability | Stable into 75-Ω video loads with <0.17% differential gain/phase error, meeting NTSC/PAL broadcast linearity specs. |
| Unity-gain stable | No external compensation required for G ≥ 1 configurations, simplifying layout and reducing BOM count in buffer applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA350UA | Same die, identical electrical specs; differs only in tape-and-reel packaging (UAG4 = tube, UA = reel). | No functional difference; both rated for −40°C to 85°C; same SOIC-8 footprint and pinout. | Select OPA350UA for automated SMT assembly; OPA350UAG4 for prototyping or low-volume hand-soldering. |
| TLV2462CDR | Lower GBW (6.4 MHz), slower slew rate (1.6 V/µs), higher THD+N (0.003%), but lower IQ (550 µA). | Not suitable for >100 kHz video or fast-settling ADC drivers; acceptable for DC-coupled sensor buffers or audio line-outs. | Choose TLV2462CDR only when power budget is critical and bandwidth <1 MHz suffices. |
Compared with OPA350UAG4, OPA350UA offers identical performance in reel format for production use, while TLV2462CDR trades speed and linearity for ultra-low quiescent current-making it viable only in low-bandwidth, power-sensitive roles where OPA350UAG4's 38 MHz and 0.0006% THD+N are unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the OPA350UAG4?
The OPA350UAG4 supports a maximum supply voltage of 5.5 V across its V+ and V− pins. Absolute maximum rating is 7 V, but electrical specifications are guaranteed only from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Operation above 5.5 V risks permanent damage and invalidates all published AC/DC parameters. Always observe the 5.5 V limit in production designs using OPA350UAG4.
Does the OPA350UAG4 require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the OPA350UAG4 is internally compensated and unity-gain stable. It drives capacitive loads up to 100 pF in G = 1 configuration without oscillation or peaking, as verified in Figure 21 of the SBOS099D datasheet. External compensation is unnecessary unless driving >100 pF or operating in non-inverting G < 1 configurations, which are not recommended for OPA350UAG4.
Can the OPA350UAG4 drive a 75-Ω video load directly?
Yes, the OPA350UAG4 is characterized for 75-Ω video drive with 0.17% differential gain and 0.17° differential phase error at NTSC frequencies, meeting broadcast linearity standards. It delivers stable 1.4 VPP output into 75 Ω with <0.0006% THD+N at 1 kHz. For sustained 75-Ω operation, ensure thermal design accounts for ~120 mW dissipation at 5 V supply.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of the OPA350UAG4?
The OPA350UAG4 input common-mode voltage range extends from −0.1 V to (V+) + 0.1 V, verified over −40°C to 85°C. This rail-to-rail capability allows direct interface with sensors, DACs, or other ICs whose outputs swing near ground or V+. Note that PSRR and CMRR degrade within the ±400-mV internal transition region near (V+) – 1.8 V, so avoid biasing inputs there for precision DC applications.
Is the OPA350UAG4 pin-compatible with other members of the OPAx350 family?
No-OPA350UAG4 (single, SOIC-8) is not pin-compatible with OPA2350 (dual) or OPA4350 (quad), which use different pinouts and package counts. However, all OPAx350 variants share identical electrical specifications and thermal characteristics per channel. Board redesign is required to substitute channel count; only OPA350-series singles (e.g., OPA350UA, OPA350DGK) are mechanically and electrically interchangeable with OPA350UAG4.
