Product details
Overview
OPA355NA/250 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, 200-MHz CMOS operational amplifier with shutdown control, rail-to-rail output (within 100 mV), 450-MHz unity-gain bandwidth, and 5.8 nV/√Hz input voltage noise-designed for high-fidelity video buffering, photodiode transimpedance amplification, and ADC input conditioning in portable 2.5–5.5 V systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA355NA/250 datasheet, OPA355NA/250 pinout, OPA355NA/250 application, or OPA355NA/250 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100 ns enable time, 30 ns disable time, 0.02% differential gain error, 75 MHz 0.1-dB gain flatness, and thermal shutdown at 160°C-critical for video signal integrity and power-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The OPA355NA/250 implements a voltage-feedback CMOS architecture optimized for unity-gain stability and wideband operation up to 450 MHz small-signal bandwidth. Its input stage supports common-mode voltage down to 100 mV below ground and up to 1.5 V below V+, enabling true single-supply operation across 2.5–5.5 V rails.
It integrates a digital enable function that places the output in high-impedance state during shutdown, drawing only 3.4 µA per channel while maintaining fast 100 ns enable / 30 ns disable timing-enabling dynamic power gating in multiplexed analog signal paths without external isolation switches.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 450 MHz - enables stable 1× voltage follower operation with minimal phase margin degradation at high frequencies. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 200 MHz - defines closed-loop bandwidth limit for non-inverting gains >1 (e.g., 100 MHz at G = 2). |
| Input Voltage Noise | 5.8 nV/√Hz at 1 MHz - preserves SNR in low-level signal amplification (e.g., photodiode current conversion). |
| Differential Gain Error | 0.02% - ensures <0.02% amplitude distortion in NTSC/PAL composite video signal processing. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 100 mV of rails at 150 Ω load - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3 V or 5 V single-supply systems. |
| Shutdown Current | 3.4 µA per channel - reduces system standby power by >99% versus active 8.3 mA quiescent draw. |
| Enable/Disable Time | 100 ns / 30 ns - supports high-speed gated amplification and time-division multiplexing of analog signals. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA356IDBVR | Same 200-MHz GBW but no shutdown function; 5.5 nV/√Hz noise; SO-8 package. | Lacks enable/disable control-unsuitable for power-gated or multiplexed architectures. | Select when continuous operation is required and board space allows removal of external enable logic. |
| LMH6629MA/NOPB | Higher 1.5 GHz GBW; 1.9 nV/√Hz noise; no integrated shutdown; requires dual supply for full performance. | Better noise and bandwidth but higher quiescent current (12.5 mA); no thermal shutdown. | Choose for ultra-low-noise, wideband applications where power budget and thermal safety are managed externally. |
Compared with OPA355NA/250, OPA356IDBVR trades shutdown capability for marginally lower noise and identical bandwidth, while LMH6629MA/NOPB delivers superior noise and speed at the cost of higher supply current and no built-in power management-making OPA355NA/250 optimal for battery-powered, thermally constrained, or time-multiplexed video/analog signal chains.

FAQ
What is the operating supply voltage range for the OPA355NA/250?
The OPA355NA/250 operates from 2.5 V to 5.5 V total supply voltage-supporting both single-supply (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V) and split-supply (±1.25 V to ±2.75 V) configurations. Recommended conditions specify 2.7 V to 5.5 V, with absolute maximum ratings limiting V+ to V– + 7.5 V. This range enables direct integration into Li-ion battery systems and legacy 5 V industrial platforms without level-shifting circuitry. The OPA355NA/250 maintains specified performance across the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range within this supply window.
Does the OPA355NA/250 support rail-to-rail input operation?
No, the OPA355NA/250 does not support rail-to-rail input. Its common-mode input voltage range extends from 100 mV below V– to 1.5 V below V+, meaning it accepts inputs down to ground in single-supply use but cannot swing fully to the positive rail. For example, with V+ = 5 V and V– = 0 V, the valid input range is –0.1 V to +3.5 V. This design prioritizes high-speed performance and low noise over full input rail coverage-distinguishing it from rail-to-rail input op amps like the OPA335. The OPA355NA/250 remains ideal for applications where the signal stays within this extended-but-not-full range, such as video DC-coupled buffers and transimpedance amplifiers.
How does the ENABLE pin function on the OPA355NA/250?
The ENABLE pin (Pin 8) on the OPA355NA/250 is a TTL-compatible digital control input that places the amplifier in low-power shutdown mode when driven LOW (≤0.8 V), reducing quiescent current to 3.4 µA per channel and forcing the output into high-impedance state. When driven HIGH (≥2.0 V), normal operation resumes with 8.3 mA supply current. An internal 100 kΩ pullup to V+ ensures default-enable behavior if left floating. The OPA355NA/250 achieves 100 ns enable time and 30 ns disable time-enabling precise gating in time-division multiplexed analog signal paths without external switches or relays.
What is the thermal shutdown behavior of the OPA355NA/250?
The OPA355NA/250 incorporates internal thermal shutdown that activates at 160°C junction temperature, disabling the amplifier output and reducing current draw to shutdown levels. Operation automatically resumes once the junction cools to approximately 140°C. This protection prevents permanent damage during sustained overload, short-circuit events, or inadequate PCB heat sinking. Thermal metrics for the SOIC-8 package show RθJA = 136.3°C/W, meaning ambient-to-junction rise is ~1.1°C per mW dissipated. The OPA355NA/250's thermal shutdown is independent of supply voltage and functions identically across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C).
Can the OPA355NA/250 drive a 75 Ω video load directly?
Yes, the OPA355NA/250 is explicitly characterized for 75 Ω video loads and delivers 0.02% differential gain and 0.05° differential phase error under NTSC conditions-meeting broadcast video specifications. It sustains rail-to-rail output swing within 100 mV at 150 Ω and provides ±60 mA continuous output current, sufficient for driving 75 Ω back-terminated lines. However, for optimal stability and gain flatness, TI recommends using a 604 Ω feedback resistor in unity-gain configuration with proper PCB layout (short traces, ground plane, decoupling). The OPA355NA/250's 75 MHz 0.1-dB gain flatness ensures minimal amplitude ripple across standard-definition and high-definition video basebands.
