Product details
Overview
OPA3691ID from Texas Instruments is a triple-channel, current-feedback operational amplifier optimized for wideband video and high-speed data acquisition. It delivers 280MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 2100V/µs slew rate, ±4.0V output swing (±5V supply), 190mA output current per channel, and integrated disable control enabling <150µA/ch power-down mode - making it ideal for RGB line drivers and single-supply ADC input buffering in portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the OPA3691ID datasheet, OPA3691ID pinout, OPA3691ID application, or OPA3691ID equivalent, key selection criteria include its current-feedback architecture's gain-independent bandwidth, low 5.1mA/ch quiescent current with precise 25°C trim, high-frequency pinout optimization for reduced crosstalk, and verified performance at +5V single-supply operation with 190MHz G=+2 bandwidth.
Technical Context
The OPA3691ID employs a current-feedback topology with transimpedance gain (ZOL) of 225kΩ (min, ±5V), enabling stable high-frequency operation independent of closed-loop gain. Its output stage architecture minimizes voltage headroom and crossover distortion, supporting ±4.0V swing into no load and >120mA drive at ±3.9V into 100Ω on ±5V supplies.
Each channel features an independent disable (DIS) pin that, when pulled LOW, reduces supply current to <150µA/ch while placing the output in high-impedance state; enable/disable times are 25ns and 400ns respectively, with turn-on/off glitches limited to ±50mV and ±20mV under specified conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth (G = +1) | 280MHz - enables full-power signal fidelity up to NTSC/PAL video baseband without gain-dependent roll-off. |
| Slew Rate | 2100V/µs - supports clean 5VPP step response in <2ns with minimal overshoot for imaging and pulse applications. |
| Output Current | ±190mA/ch - drives 75Ω video cables, 100Ω ADC inputs, or multiple parallel loads without external buffers. |
| Supply Range | ±2.5V to ±6V dual or +5V to +12V single - allows direct integration into legacy ±5V systems or modern low-voltage portable designs. |
| Disable Current | <150µA/ch - reduces total system standby power by >97% versus active mode (15.3mA), critical for battery-powered instruments. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 1.7nV/√Hz @ >1MHz - preserves SNR in high-bandwidth signal chains such as cable drivers and active filters. |
| Differential Gain/Phase | 0.07%/0.02° @ NTSC - meets broadcast-grade video linearity requirements without post-compensation. |
Pinout & Package
OPA3691ID is packaged in SO-16 surface-mount (D package), 16-pin small-outline integrated circuit with exposed pad thermal enhancement. Pin numbering follows standard SOIC top-view convention with pin 1 marked by notch or dot.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 9 | –IN A/B/C | Inverting inputs for channels A, B, C - high-impedance current-summing nodes with 37Ω internal resistance. |
| 2, 6, 10 | +IN A/B/C | Noninverting inputs - 100kΩ || 2pF impedance; common-mode range extends to ±3.5V on ±5V supply. |
| 3, 7, 11 | DIS A/B/C | Active-low disable control per channel - logic HIGH enables; LOW disables output and reduces supply current. |
| 4, 12 | +VS / –VS | Positive/negative supply pins - decoupling required; θJA = 100°C/W for thermal management. |
| 8, 13, 16 | OUT A/B/C | High-current outputs - capable of ±190mA sourcing/sinking; output impedance <0.03Ω at 100kHz. |
| 14, 15 | No Connect | Internally unused - must be left floating or grounded per layout best practices to avoid parasitic coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-channel wideband amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA3691IDBQT | Same die, SSOP-16 (DBQ) package with tape-and-reel packaging (250 units); identical electrical specs and pinout. | Preferred for automated SMT assembly; same thermal resistance (θJA = 100°C/W) but smaller footprint. | Select OPA3691IDBQT for volume production requiring pick-and-place compatibility and space-constrained PCBs. |
| OPA3690ID | Voltage-feedback architecture; lower bandwidth (250MHz G=+1), higher supply current (6.5mA/ch), no disable function. | Lacks power-down capability and exhibits gain-dependent bandwidth; unsuitable for battery-powered or multi-channel switching systems. | Choose OPA3690ID only if voltage-feedback linearity advantages outweigh need for disable control and current-feedback bandwidth stability. |
Compared with OPA3691IDBQT, the OPA3691ID offers identical performance in SO-16 packaging for manual prototyping or through-hole-compatible reflow; compared with OPA3690ID, it provides 30MHz higher unity-gain bandwidth, 1.4mA/ch lower quiescent current, and integrated channel disable - essential for portable and power-aware designs.

FAQ
What supply voltages does the OPA3691ID support?
The OPA3691ID operates from ±2.5V to ±6V dual supply or +5V to +12V single supply. Its specified operating range is ±5V or +5V, with maximum ratings up to ±6.5V. At +5V single supply, it delivers 190MHz bandwidth (G=+2) and 3VPP output swing centered at 2.5V - validated in TI's SBOS227E datasheet Figure 2 test circuit.
How does the disable function work on the OPA3691ID?
The OPA3691ID has three independent DIS pins (pins 3, 7, 11). Pulling any DIS pin LOW disables its corresponding amplifier channel, reducing supply current to <150µA/ch and placing the output in high-impedance state. The feature uses make-before-break timing to prevent output float during switching - critical for RGB multiplexing. Enable/disable times are 25ns and 400ns respectively.
Can the OPA3691ID drive 75Ω video cables directly?
Yes - the OPA3691ID delivers ±190mA output current and supports 75Ω loads with minimal distortion. In RGB multiplexer applications (TI Figure 4), it drives 75Ω lines using 82.5Ω series output resistors to achieve matched 75Ω source impedance and +1 gain. Differential gain/phase of 0.07%/0.02° at NTSC confirms broadcast-grade video fidelity without external equalization.
What is the thermal performance of the OPA3691ID in SO-16 package?
The OPA3691ID in SO-16 (D package) has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 100°C/W, per TI SBOS227E datasheet. With 15.3mA total quiescent current at ±5V, power dissipation is ~153mW - resulting in ~15°C junction rise above ambient at steady state. Layout with copper pour under the exposed pad (if present) or thermal vias improves heat transfer in high-density designs.
Is the OPA3691ID suitable for driving ADC inputs in single-supply systems?
Yes - the OPA3691ID is explicitly characterized for single +5V ADC driving (TI Figure 3). It delivers >150MHz full-power bandwidth with 3VPP output swing into 100Ω, matching typical 2VPP input ranges of CMOS pipelined ADCs like the ADS831. Its low 1.7nV/√Hz input voltage noise and –74dBc 3rd-harmonic distortion ensure no degradation of ADC SFDR performance.
