Product details
Overview
OPA356AIDR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-speed, voltage-feedback CMOS operational amplifier optimized for video signal processing and wideband analog applications. It delivers 450MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 360V/µs slew rate, rail-to-rail output swing within 100mV of rails, 0.02% differential gain / 0.05° differential phase accuracy, and operates from 2.5V to 5.5V single supply. It is used in composite video driver circuits requiring NTSC compliance.
For engineers reviewing the OPA356AIDR datasheet, OPA356AIDR pinout, OPA356AIDR application, or OPA356AIDR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 75MHz 0.1dB gain flatness, ±60mA continuous output current, –40°C to +125°C extended temperature range, thermal shutdown protection at 160°C, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with standard PCB layouts for high-frequency analog designs.
Technical Context
The OPA356AIDR implements a fully differential input stage with CMOS transistors enabling 3pA typical input bias current and 5.8nV/√Hz input voltage noise. Its voltage-feedback architecture supports stable operation at unity gain while maintaining 200MHz gain-bandwidth product under G = +10 conditions.
Common-mode input range extends 100mV below ground and up to 1.5V below V+, enabling true single-supply operation with ground-referenced inputs. The output stage drives 150Ω loads to within 0.2V of rails at ±60mA, and includes on-die thermal shutdown that disables output above 160°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA355AIDR | Includes shutdown mode; 200MHz GBW; rail-to-rail input/output; higher 12mA IQ | Better suited for power-gated systems requiring standby current <1µA; less optimal for pure video due to lower slew rate (210V/µs) | Select OPA355AIDR only if system-level shutdown control is required and video differential phase <0.05° is not mandatory |
| OPA634AU | Higher 150MHz GBW; 1200V/µs slew rate; ±5V supply only; SOIC-8 package | Designed for precision instrumentation with lower noise (2.1nV/√Hz); not specified for –40°C to +125°C | Choose OPA634AU for high-accuracy DC-coupled measurement systems where wide temperature range is not required |
Compared with OPA356AIDR, OPA355AIDR adds power management at the cost of video performance, while OPA634AU trades extended temperature capability and single-supply flexibility for superior DC precision and slew rate in narrower operating conditions.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current specification for OPA356AIDR?
The OPA356AIDR is rated for ±60mA continuous output current per channel under normal operating conditions. Exceeding this limit is not recommended, as confirmed by the "Output Voltage Swing vs Output Current" curves in the SBOS212A datasheet. At ±100mA peak, the device remains functional but thermal shutdown may activate if sustained, and output swing degrades to within 0.8–1.0V of rails.
Does OPA356AIDR support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes, OPA356AIDR supports true single-supply operation with input common-mode voltage extending 100mV below ground (V– – 0.1V). This allows direct interfacing with ground-referenced sources such as DAC outputs or sensor bridges without level-shifting circuitry, as verified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Common-Mode Voltage Range".
What is the thermal shutdown behavior of OPA356AIDR, and how does it recover?
The OPA356AIDR activates thermal shutdown at 160°C junction temperature and resets automatically when junction temperature falls below 140°C. This hysteresis prevents cycling near the trip point. Recovery is passive and requires no external intervention-operation resumes once die temperature cools sufficiently, as documented in the "Thermal Shutdown" section of SBOS212A.
Can OPA356AIDR drive a 75Ω back-terminated video cable without external components?
Yes, OPA356AIDR is explicitly characterized to drive standard back-terminated 75Ω video cables. When properly terminated, the load appears resistive (150Ω), avoiding capacitive loading effects. The datasheet confirms this capability in the "Output Drive" section and specifies differential gain/phase performance under 150Ω load conditions.
Is OPA356AIDR pin-compatible with other members of the OPA356 family in SOIC-8 packaging?
Yes, all SOIC-8 variants of the OPA356 family-including OPA356AID, OPA356AIDR, and OPA356AIDG4-share identical pinout and footprint. Pin 1 is NC, pins 2 and 8 are supplies, pin 3 is output, pins 6 and 7 are inputs, and pins 4–5 are NC. This uniformity enables drop-in replacement across ordering variants without PCB changes.
