Product details
Overview
OPA4344EA/2K5 from Texas Instruments is a quad, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for precision, low-power, single-supply operation (2.7V to 5.5V). It delivers 1MHz gain-bandwidth, 0.8V/µs slew rate, ±1mV max input offset voltage, 0.006% THD+N at 1kHz, and 150µA typical quiescent current per amplifier-enabling high-fidelity signal conditioning in space-constrained, battery-powered data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA4344EA/2K5 datasheet, OPA4344EA/2K5 pinout, OPA4344EA/2K5 application, or OPA4344EA/2K5 equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail I/O swing within 1mV of rails, unity-gain stability, low-noise (30nV/√Hz), and TSSOP-14 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The OPA4344EA/2K5 implements a complementary CMOS input stage enabling rail-to-rail common-mode input range extending 300mV beyond supply rails, paired with a class AB output stage delivering rail-to-rail output swing down to 1mV from V+ or V– under light loads. Its unity-gain stable architecture supports direct use in buffers, active filters, and ADC driver configurations without external compensation.
Each of the four amplifiers operates independently with matched specifications across temperature (–40°C to +85°C), including 122dB open-loop gain, 92dB CMRR at 5.5V, and 130dB PSRR at 1kHz-ensuring consistent channel separation and minimal crosstalk in multi-channel signal chains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1MHz - enables stable unity-gain operation with sufficient bandwidth for audio and sensor signal conditioning up to ~100kHz closed-loop. |
| Slew Rate | 0.8V/µs - supports clean 10kHz full-scale sine wave output at 5Vpp without distortion in single-supply systems. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±1mV max - ensures ≤0.02% gain error in 50mV–5V sensor interface applications without trimming. |
| Quiescent Current | 150µA per amplifier typ - allows four-channel operation at <600µA total, critical for coin-cell or energy-harvesting systems. |
| THD + Noise | 0.006% at 1kHz - meets high-fidelity audio and precision measurement requirements where harmonic artifacts must be suppressed below –84dBc. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 1mV of rails (RL ≥100kΩ) - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3V or 5V systems, preserving >99.9% of available signal headroom. |
| Input Voltage Range | –0.3V to (V+) + 0.3V - permits direct interfacing with sensors or DACs operating slightly outside supply rails without external clamping. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad rail-to-rail op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA4344UA/2K5 | SO-14 package (larger footprint, 8.65mm × 3.91mm vs TSSOP-14's 5.0mm × 4.4mm); identical electrical specs and temperature range. | Better thermal dissipation (θJA = 100°C/W vs 100°C/W for TSSOP-14) but requires more PCB area; compatible with legacy SOIC footprints. | Select OPA4344UA/2K5 when board layout prioritizes ease of rework or thermal margin over miniaturization. |
| TLV2464IDR | Higher quiescent current (550µA per amp), lower GBW (6.4MHz), no guaranteed rail-to-rail output swing below 10mV; specified only to 125°C. | Not suitable for ultra-low-power designs or applications requiring <1mV output swing; better for higher-speed, non-battery-critical systems. | Choose TLV2464IDR only if higher bandwidth is required and power budget exceeds 2.2mA total for four channels. |
Compared with OPA4344UA/2K5, the OPA4344EA/2K5 saves >50% PCB area while maintaining identical precision and low-power performance; versus TLV2464IDR, it reduces total quiescent current by 73% and guarantees sub-millivolt rail-to-rail output-critical for 3.3V data acquisition.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for the OPA4344EA/2K5?
The OPA4344EA/2K5 has an absolute maximum supply voltage of 7.5V between V+ and V–, but its specified operating range is 2.7V to 5.5V. Operation outside this range may cause parametric degradation or reliability issues. For reliable long-term performance, maintain VS within 2.7V–5.5V as validated in the SBOS107A datasheet.
Is the OPA4344EA/2K5 unity-gain stable?
Yes, the OPA4344EA/2K5 is explicitly unity-gain stable, as confirmed in the Applications Information section of the SBOS107A datasheet. It requires no external compensation and maintains phase margin >45° at G = 1, making it suitable for buffer, active filter, and I/V converter configurations without risk of oscillation.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the OPA4344EA/2K5 in its TSSOP-14 package?
The OPA4344EA/2K5 in the TSSOP-14 (PW) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 100°C/W, as specified in the Thermal Resistance table on page 3 of SBOS107A. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions and enables continuous operation at up to +85°C ambient with appropriate PCB copper pour.
Does the OPA4344EA/2K5 support rail-to-rail output swing under load?
Yes-the OPA4344EA/2K5 delivers rail-to-rail output swing within 1mV of V+ or V– when driving RL ≥100kΩ, and within 400mV under 5kΩ loads while maintaining ≥96dB open-loop gain. This behavior is verified in the Output Voltage Swing specification table (page 2) and "Output Voltage Swing vs Output Current" curve (page 7).
Can the OPA4344EA/2K5 drive capacitive loads directly?
The OPA4344EA/2K5 can directly drive up to 250pF capacitive loads in unity-gain configuration without instability, as stated in the Capacitive Load and Stability section (page 10). For larger loads or improved phase margin, a 10Ω–20Ω series resistor at the output (Figure 5) is recommended to suppress ringing while preserving DC accuracy.
