Product details
Overview
OPA380AIDR from Texas Instruments is a precision transimpedance amplifier optimized for photodiode current-to-voltage conversion, featuring 90MHz gain bandwidth, 25µV max offset voltage, 50pA max input bias current, and 1MHz transimpedance bandwidth in typical configurations-enabling high-speed optical sensing in CAT-scan front-ends and fiber-optic power monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the OPA380AIDR datasheet, OPA380AIDR pinout, OPA380AIDR application, or OPA380AIDR equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, MSOP-8 package details, photodiode interface design guidance, dynamic range validation (4–5 decades), and real-world alternatives for I/V conversion in single-supply, high-stability optical systems.
Technical Context
The OPA380AIDR integrates an auto-zero core with a continuous-time 90MHz signal-path amplifier, correcting offset every 100µs to achieve 0.1µV/°C drift and excellent long-term VOS stability. Its architecture eliminates phase inversion during input overvoltage and supports fast overload recovery (100ns from positive rail).
Designed explicitly for inverting transimpedance configurations, it accepts photodiode current at the inverting input while holding the noninverting input at a fixed bias. Input common-mode range extends from V− to (V+) − 1.8V, and output swing reaches within 100mV of V− (or 0V with optional −5V pulldown resistor) and 600mV of V+ under 2kΩ load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 90MHz - enables >1MHz transimpedance bandwidth with low-CDIODE photodiodes and standard feedback networks. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 25µV max - ensures sub-10nA measurement accuracy in precision I/V stages without trimming. |
| Input Bias Current | 50pA max - minimizes dark-current error in high-impedance photodiode interfaces. |
| Supply Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-supply operation in portable and industrial optical sensors. |
| Quiescent Current | 7.5mA - balances speed and power for battery-sensitive or thermally constrained designs. |
| Transimpedance Dynamic Range | 4–5 decades - measures currents from ~1nA to 100µA in one stage, avoiding log-amp complexity and bandwidth trade-offs. |
| Offset Drift | 0.1µV/°C max - maintains calibration integrity across −40°C to +125°C operating range. |
Pinout & Package
OPA380AIDR is packaged in an MSOP-8 (Mini Small Outline Package) with exposed thermal pad, optimized for space-constrained optical sensor PCBs and compatible with standard reflow profiles. Pin 1 is marked with a dot; pins are numbered counterclockwise.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No Connect (NC) | No internal connection - must be left floating or grounded per layout best practice; not used for signal or bias. |
| 2 | Inverting Input (−IN) | Photodiode cathode connection point; summing junction where transimpedance feedback is applied. |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (+IN) | Fixed DC bias node (e.g., 0.5V); sets output common-mode and reverse-biases photodiode for speed. |
| 4 | V− (Ground/Negative Supply) | Reference for single-supply operation; supports 0V output swing when paired with external pulldown resistor to −5V. |
| 5 | V+ (Positive Supply) | 2.7V–5.5V supply input; requires local 1µF ceramic bypass capacitor per TI layout guidelines. |
| 6 | Output (OUT) | Low-impedance voltage output; swings 0V to 4.4V with pulldown, or 0.1V to (V+ − 0.6V) without. |
| 7 | No Connect (NC) | No internal connection - no routing or termination required. |
| 8 | No Connect (NC) | No internal connection - no routing or termination required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transimpedance amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA300IDBVR | 150MHz GBW, 2.7V–5.5V supply, but 500µV max VOS and 1pA max IB - higher noise and offset than OPA380AIDR. | Better suited for wideband AC-coupled photodiode signals where absolute DC accuracy is secondary to speed. | Select when >100MHz transimpedance bandwidth is required and 500µV offset is acceptable in system calibration. |
| OPA335AIDBVR | 10µV max VOS, zero-drift architecture, but only 2MHz GBW and 1.7V–5.5V supply - slower and less stable at high frequency. | Ideal for ultra-low-offset DC-coupled measurements (e.g., spectrophotometer baseline stability), not high-speed optical pulses. | Choose for sub-10µV offset-critical DC applications below 200kHz; avoid for >100kHz photodiode signals due to limited bandwidth. |
Compared with OPA300IDBVR and OPA335AIDBVR, the OPA380AIDR uniquely balances 90MHz bandwidth, 25µV offset, and 50pA bias current - making it the only option among the three capable of maintaining <0.05% linearity across 1MHz optical modulation while supporting 0V output swing in single-supply CAT-scan front-ends.

FAQ
What is the maximum photodiode capacitance supported by OPA380AIDR for 1MHz transimpedance bandwidth?
The OPA380AIDR achieves >1MHz transimpedance bandwidth with photodiode capacitances up to 100pF when using RF = 1MΩ and CF = 0.5pF, as validated in TI's SBOS291G datasheet Figure 7. At CDIODE = 100pF, the measured −3dB point remains ≥1.05MHz under typical PCB layout conditions with minimized stray capacitance.
Does OPA380AIDR require external components to achieve 0V output swing?
Yes - OPA380AIDR achieves true 0V output swing only when a 2kΩ pulldown resistor (RP) is connected between VOUT (Pin 6) and a −5V supply, as shown in Figure 3 of the SBOS291G datasheet. Without RP, output swing is limited to ≥100mV above V− (ground) under 2kΩ load.
How does the auto-zero architecture of OPA380AIDR affect its noise performance at 10kHz?
At 10kHz, the OPA380AIDR exhibits 67nV/√Hz input voltage noise density - consistent with its high-speed CMOS front-end, not degraded by auto-zero clock feedthrough. TI's characterization confirms negligible energy at the 10kHz correction frequency due to internal filtering; noise remains dominated by broadband thermal sources.
Can OPA380AIDR operate from a 3.3V single supply while maintaining full specified performance?
Yes - OPA380AIDR is fully specified from 2.7V to 5.5V, including all key parameters (25µV VOS max, 50pA IB max, 90MHz GBW, 0.1µV/°C drift) across −40°C to +125°C at 3.3V. Quiescent current is 7.5mA typical, and output swing remains ≥600mV from V+ and ≥100mV from V− under 2kΩ load.
What is the recommended PCB layout practice to minimize noise in OPA380AIDR transimpedance circuits?
TI recommends minimizing stray capacitance at the inverting input (Pin 2) via guard ring routing driven at +IN potential, using short direct traces to the photodiode cathode and feedback resistor, placing 1µF ceramic bypass capacitors within 2mm of Pins 4 (V−) and 5 (V+), and avoiding vias or splits under the MSOP-8 thermal pad to maintain thermal and electrical stability.
