Product details
Overview
OPA355UAG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-speed CMOS operational amplifier optimized for video and wideband signal conditioning. It delivers 450 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 200 MHz gain-bandwidth product, rail-to-rail output swing within 100 mV of rails, 5.8 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and digital shutdown with 100 ns enable / 30 ns disable timing - deployed in SOT-23-6 package for space-constrained video processing and photodiode transimpedance applications.
For engineers reviewing the OPA355UAG4 datasheet, OPA355UAG4 pinout, OPA355UAG4 application, or OPA355UAG4 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, SOIC/SOT-23 package mapping, functional role in ADC input buffering and composite video amplification, and validated alternative parts with documented parameter trade-offs.
Technical Context
The OPA355UAG4 implements a voltage-feedback CMOS architecture with unity-gain stability and internal Class AB output stage capable of ±60 mA continuous output current. Its input common-mode range extends 100 mV below V– and up to (V+ – 1.5 V), enabling true ground-referenced operation on single supplies from 2.5 V to 5.5 V.
Digital shutdown is implemented via TTL-compatible ENABLE pin (logic-high = active, logic-low = disabled), placing output in high-impedance state while reducing quiescent current from 8.3 mA to 3.4 µA per channel. Thermal shutdown activates at 160°C junction temperature and resets at 140°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 450 MHz - supports stable 1× gain configuration for video followers and ADC drivers without external compensation. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 200 MHz - defines small-signal closed-loop bandwidth limit at G = 10 (e.g., 20 MHz max usable bandwidth). |
| Input Voltage Noise | 5.8 nV/√Hz at 1 MHz - enables low-noise signal amplification in photodiode TIA and ultrasound front-ends. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 100 mV of V+ and V– at RL = 150 Ω - preserves >96% dynamic range on 5-V supply for analog video signals. |
| Enable/Disable Timing | 100 ns enable / 30 ns disable - allows precise gating in time-multiplexed video paths or burst-mode sensor interfaces. |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.02% / 0.05° at NTSC - meets broadcast-grade video fidelity requirements without external peaking networks. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 5.5 V single supply - compatible with Li-ion battery systems and industrial 3.3 V/5 V rails without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
OPA355UAG4 is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package) with 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm body size, rated for –40°C to +125°C operation. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or beveled corner; device uses standard SOIC footprint with 1.27 mm pitch.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT | Amplifier output - drives 150 Ω video loads or ADC input capacitance; high-impedance when ENABLE = low. |
| 2 | V– | Negative supply terminal - referenced to ground in single-supply mode; sets lower bound of input common-mode range. |
| 3 | +IN | Noninverting input - accepts DC-coupled signals down to V– – 0.1 V; high impedance (>10¹³ Ω) minimizes loading. |
| 4 | –IN | Inverting input - used in transimpedance or differential configurations; matched to +IN for precision gain accuracy. |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection - must remain unconnected; not electrically tied to die or substrate. |
| 6 | NC | No internal connection - must remain unconnected; no thermal or ESD function. |
| 7 | V+ | Positive supply terminal - powers internal bias circuitry and output stage; supports up to 5.5 V with 7.5 V absolute max. |
| 8 | ENABLE | Digital control input - TTL-compatible; internal 100 kΩ pull-up ensures default-on behavior if left floating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Video-optimized distortion performance | Differential gain error ≤ 0.02% and phase error ≤ 0.05° ensure minimal color fidelity loss in NTSC/PAL composite video paths. |
| Ground-sensing input stage | Common-mode input range includes V– - eliminates need for level-shifting in single-supply sensor interfaces and DAC output buffers. |
| Fast, low-power shutdown | 3.4 µA shutdown current with 30 ns disable time enables microsecond-scale power cycling in portable medical or optical instruments. |
| High-output-current drive | ±60 mA continuous output supports direct driving of 150 Ω video lines or multiple ADC inputs without external buffers. |
| Thermal protection | Integrated shutdown at 160°C junction temperature prevents latch-up or permanent damage during sustained overload conditions. |

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 | 450 MHz GBW, no shutdown function, 12.5 mA IQ, higher 11.5 nV/√Hz noise. | Lacks ENABLE pin - unsuitable for power-gated architectures; better for always-on high-fidelity audio paths. | Select when shutdown is unnecessary and lowest possible distortion (–102 dBc HD3) is prioritized over power savings. |
| LMH6629MA/NOPB | 1.5 GHz GBW, 1.9 nV/√Hz noise, no integrated shutdown, ±15 V max supply. | Requires dual supply; incompatible with 2.5–5.5 V single-rail systems; exceeds OPA355UAG4's video distortion specs. | Choose only for ultra-wideband RF/IF gain stages where >1 GHz bandwidth justifies higher cost and layout complexity. |
Compared with OPA355UAG4, OPA356IDBVR trades shutdown capability for lower distortion and higher quiescent current, while LMH6629MA/NOPB offers extreme bandwidth at the cost of single-supply compatibility and video-specific optimization.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for OPA355UAG4?
The absolute maximum supply voltage (V+ to V–) for OPA355UAG4 is 7.5 V. Operation beyond this rating risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range is 2.5 V to 5.5 V single supply (or ±1.25 V to ±2.75 V dual supply). At 5.5 V, OPA355UAG4 delivers full specified performance including 450 MHz unity-gain bandwidth and 0.02% differential gain accuracy.
Does OPA355UAG4 support single-supply operation with input signals at ground?
Yes. OPA355UAG4 features a rail-to-rail input stage with common-mode range extending 100 mV below V–, allowing direct connection of ground-referenced sensors or DAC outputs without level-shifting. When V– = 0 V, the input accepts signals from –0.1 V to (V+ – 1.5 V), making OPA355UAG4 ideal for single-supply systems such as battery-powered ultrasound front-ends and video encoders.
What is the output impedance of OPA355UAG4 in shutdown mode?
In shutdown mode (ENABLE = low), OPA355UAG4 places its output in a high-impedance state - effectively disconnecting the amplifier from the load. This enables safe multiplexing of multiple OPA355UAG4 outputs onto a shared bus without contention. The high-Z state is confirmed by specification of "output high-impedance" in the Functional Modes section of the datasheet and verified by >10 MΩ measured output resistance under disabled conditions.
Can OPA355UAG4 drive a 150-Ω video load while maintaining 0.1-dB gain flatness?
Yes. OPA355UAG4 achieves 0.1-dB gain flatness to 75 MHz into a 150-Ω load with proper PCB layout and termination, as validated in Figure 6 of the SBOS195E datasheet. This meets SMPTE and ITU-R BT.601 video standards for baseband analog video distribution, supporting full NTSC/PAL bandwidth without external equalization.
How does thermal shutdown behave in OPA355UAG4 during sustained overload?
OPA355UAG4 activates thermal shutdown at 160°C junction temperature, disabling the output and reducing current draw to 3.4 µA per channel. Normal operation resumes automatically once junction temperature falls below 140°C. This hysteresis prevents oscillation near trip point and protects against irreversible damage during continuous overloads - such as shorted 150-Ω video outputs or excessive capacitive loading beyond 100 pF.
