Product details
Overview
OPA3690ID from Texas Instruments is a triple, wideband, voltage-feedback operational amplifier with individual disable control per channel, designed for high-fidelity video and high-speed analog signal conditioning. It delivers 220MHz bandwidth at G = +2, 1800V/µs slew rate, ±4.0V output swing on ±5V supplies, and 190mA output current - enabling RGB line driving and ADC input buffering in compact single-supply systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA3690ID datasheet, OPA3690ID pinout, OPA3690ID application, or OPA3690ID equivalent, key selection criteria include its triple-channel architecture with independent disable pins, 5.5mA/ch quiescent current, ±3.5V common-mode input range, and SO-16 package compatibility with space-constrained video and imaging PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The OPA3690ID uses a novel voltage-feedback architecture with a transconductance-based input stage that enables 1800V/µs slew rate while maintaining unity-gain stability - a performance previously limited to current-feedback op amps. Its output stage supports rail-swing headroom of only 1V on +5V supply, delivering 3VPP output with >150MHz bandwidth.
Each channel features a dedicated disable pin (DIS A/B/C) that reduces supply current to <300µA/ch and places the output in high-impedance state within 25ns enable time. The device operates across –40°C to +85°C with tested DC accuracy including ±1.0mV input offset voltage and 69dB open-loop gain at +25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth (G = +2) | 220MHz - supports NTSC/PAL video signal amplification without phase distortion up to 5.75MHz luminance bandwidth |
| Slew Rate | 1800V/µs - enables clean 4V step response in ≤2.8ns, critical for fast-settling ADC driver applications |
| Output Current | ±190mA - drives 100Ω loads directly, eliminating external buffers in RGB line driver designs |
| Supply Range | ±2.5V to ±6V dual or +5V to +12V single - allows operation from standard logic rails without dedicated analog supplies |
| Disable Current | <300µA/ch - reduces total system power by >98% when channels are idle, ideal for power-gated imaging pipelines |
| Input Voltage Noise | 5.5nV/√Hz - maintains SNR integrity in low-level sensor signal conditioning paths up to 100MHz |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.06%/0.01° - meets broadcast-grade video fidelity requirements for professional RGB and composite video systems |
Pinout & Package
The OPA3690ID is housed in a 16-pin SOIC (SO-16) package with 1.27mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012 compliant, suitable for reflow soldering and automated assembly. Thermal resistance θJA is 100°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (–IN A) | Inverting input, Channel A | Differential pair input node; requires matched impedance to +IN A for optimal CMRR |
| 2 (+IN A) | Non-inverting input, Channel A | Bias point for ac-coupled video signals; 698Ω divider sets 2.5V midpoint on +5V supply |
| 3 (DIS B) | Disable control, Channel B | Active-low logic input; pulls LOW to place Channel B output in high-Z state with <300µA supply current |
| 4 (–IN B) | Inverting input, Channel B | Independent signal path; no crosstalk coupling to Channels A or C (–64dB typical) |
| 5 (+IN B) | Non-inverting input, Channel B | DC-biased at same potential as +IN A for multi-channel synchronization |
| 6 (DIS C) | Disable control, Channel C | Enables per-channel power gating in RGB systems without affecting other channels |
| 7 (–IN C) | Inverting input, Channel C | Third identical signal path; supports simultaneous R/G/B amplification with matched settling (8ns to 0.1%) |
| 8 (+IN C) | Non-inverting input, Channel C | Provides third bias reference; all three +IN pins share common 2.5V bias network |
| 9 (DIS A) | Disable control, Channel A | First disable pin; open or HIGH for normal operation; LOW disables Channel A only |
| 10 (+VS) | Positive supply | Connects to +5V (single) or +5V (dual); decoupling capacitor required within 10mm |
| 11 (OUT A) | Output, Channel A | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±190mA into 100Ω load; 0.04Ω closed-loop output impedance |
| 12 (–VS) | Negative supply | Connects to ground (single) or –5V (dual); 0.1µF capacitor between +VS and –VS improves 2nd-harmonic distortion |
| 13 (OUT B) | Output, Channel B | Electrically isolated from OUT A/C; 70dB off-isolation at 5MHz prevents inter-channel feedthrough |
| 14 (+VS) | Positive supply (redundant) | Second +VS connection for improved current distribution; must be tied to same net as Pin 10 |
| 15 (OUT C) | Output, Channel C | Delivers identical performance to OUT A/B; supports simultaneous triple-output video timing |
| 16 (–VS) | Negative supply (redundant) | Second –VS connection; ties to same net as Pin 12 for thermal and noise reduction |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-channel wideband op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA3691DBVR | Current-feedback architecture; higher 350MHz bandwidth but requires external compensation; no disable function | Lacks per-channel shutdown; unsuitable for power-gated video systems | Select when maximum bandwidth is prioritized over power control and ease of use |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the OPA3690ID?
The OPA3690ID supports a maximum dual-supply voltage of ±6.0V and a maximum single-supply voltage of +12V. Absolute maximum ratings specify ±6.5V on the power supply pins; exceeding this risks permanent damage. For reliable operation in industrial environments, TI recommends staying within the specified operating range of ±2.5V to ±6V (dual) or +5V to +12V (single), with derating above +85°C ambient.
Does the OPA3690ID require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the OPA3690ID is internally compensated for unity-gain stability across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). Unlike many wideband op amps, it does not require external feedback capacitors or resistor networks to maintain stability at G = +1. This simplifies PCB layout and eliminates phase-margin tuning, making it suitable for direct-coupled video line driver configurations without risk of oscillation.
How does the disable function behave on the OPA3690ID?
Each channel of the OPA3690ID has an independent active-low disable pin (DIS A/B/C). When pulled LOW, the corresponding amplifier shuts down, reducing its supply current to <300µA/ch and placing its output in a high-impedance state within 200ns. The output capacitance in disable mode is only 4pF, minimizing loading on downstream circuits. Leaving the pin open or holding it HIGH maintains normal operation with 5.5mA/ch quiescent current.
Can the OPA3690ID drive a 75Ω video load directly?
Yes, the OPA3690ID can drive a 75Ω video load directly while maintaining broadcast-grade performance. At G = +2 and RL = 75Ω, it delivers ±3.9V output swing on ±5V supplies with 0.06% differential gain and 0.01° differential phase error - fully compliant with SMPTE 259M and ITU-R BT.601 standards. No series termination resistor is needed, though a 75Ω back-termination may be added at the display end for optimal cable matching.
What is the thermal resistance of the OPA3690ID in SO-16 package?
The OPA3690ID in SO-16 (D) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 100°C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions (2s2p board). This value assumes proper PCB copper pour and thermal vias beneath the exposed pad (if present) - though the SO-16 variant has no exposed thermal pad. For continuous operation at maximum rated output current, ambient temperature should be limited to ≤+70°C to keep junction temperature below +125°C.
