Product details
Overview
OPA627AM from Texas Instruments is a precision JFET-input operational amplifier designed for high-speed, low-noise analog signal conditioning in demanding instrumentation and data acquisition systems. It delivers 4.5 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 10 kHz, 550 ns settling time to 0.01%, ±130 µV max input offset voltage, and unity-gain stability - enabling accurate amplification of high-impedance sensor outputs without oscillation.
For engineers reviewing the OPA627AM datasheet, OPA627AM pinout, OPA627AM application, or OPA627AM equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed –55°C to +125°C operating range, SOIC-8 or TO-99 package options, low 5 pA max input bias current, and compatibility with ±4.5 V to ±18 V dual supplies in precision timing, DAC output buffering, and ultrasound front-end designs.
Technical Context
The OPA627AM uses dielectrically isolated complementary NPN/PNP process technology with laser-trimmed input circuitry to achieve precision FET performance - combining ultra-low input bias current (≤10 pA) with voltage noise comparable to bipolar op amps. Its cascode input stage maintains low IB across ±11.5 V common-mode range.
As a unity-gain stable device, the OPA627AM supports direct use in buffers, integrators, and gain-of-one configurations without external compensation. Its 16 MHz gain-bandwidth product and 40–55 V/µs slew rate support fast transient response in closed-loop gains ≥1, while thermal design is aided by RθJA = 121.5°C/W (SOIC-8) and 200°C/W (TO-99).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Noise | 4.8 nV/√Hz at 10 kHz - enables high-fidelity amplification of low-level signals without degrading SNR in sensor interfaces. |
| Settling Time | 550 ns to 0.01% - ensures rapid stabilization after step inputs in 16-bit+ data acquisition systems. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±130 µV max - reduces DC error in precision measurement paths without requiring frequent calibration. |
| Input Bias Current | ±10 pA max - preserves signal integrity when driving from high-impedance sources like piezoelectric sensors or photodiode transimpedance nodes. |
| Supply Range | ±4.5 V to ±18 V - supports operation across industrial and test equipment rails without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Operating Temp | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended-range military, aerospace, and downhole instrumentation applications. |
| Gain-Bandwidth | 16 MHz - allows stable closed-loop bandwidth up to ~15 MHz at unity gain for wideband filtering or active equalization. |
Pinout & Package
OPA627AM is available in two packages: 8-pin SOIC (D package) and 8-pin metal TO-99 (LMC package). Both are hermetically sealed for reliability in harsh environments. Pin functions are identical across packages except for offset trim terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 8 (SOIC); 1, 5 (TO-99) | Offset Trim / NC | TO-99 pins 1 & 5 connect to internal offset adjustment nodes; unused pins must float. SOIC pins 1, 5, 8 have no internal connection and may be left unconnected. |
| 2 | Inverting Input (–IN) | Differential input node; high-impedance JFET gate with ≤10 pA bias current and 10 TΩ || 8 pF input impedance. |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (+IN) | Differential input node; matches –IN in impedance and bias characteristics for balanced source interfacing. |
| 4 | Negative Supply (V–) | Lowest potential rail connection; supports operation down to –18 V; requires local bypassing near pin. |
| 6 | Output (OUT) | Capable of ±30 mA continuous output drive into 1 kΩ load; open-loop output impedance is 55 Ω at 1 MHz. |
| 7 | Positive Supply (V+) | Highest potential rail connection; supports operation up to +18 V; requires local bypassing near pin. |
| 8 (TO-99) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must be floated - not tied to case or ground. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unity-gain stability | Operates stably with gain = 1 without external compensation - simplifies buffer and follower designs in sensitive signal chains. |
| Laser-trimmed input stage | Delivers ±130 µV max VOS and ±2 µV/°C max drift over –55°C to +125°C - reduces system-level calibration burden. |
| Ultra-low input bias current | ≤10 pA max at 25°C and ≤2 nA over –25°C to +85°C - preserves accuracy in high-Z sensor and electrometer applications. |
| High CMRR & PSRR | ≥100 dB CMRR and ≥100 dB PSRR - rejects interference from noisy power rails and common-mode disturbances in mixed-signal PCBs. |
| Wide supply range | ±4.5 V to ±18 V operation - eliminates need for dedicated low-voltage rails in multi-stage analog front ends. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision JFET op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA627BM | Same architecture and package; tighter VOS (±40 µV max) and lower drift (±0.8 µV/°C max) over –25°C to +85°C. | Optimized for commercial/industrial temperature range only; not rated for –55°C operation. | Select OPA627BM when highest DC precision is required within 0°C–85°C ambient and extended temperature qualification is unnecessary. |
| OPA637AM | Same family, same temp range (–55°C to +125°C), but gain-stable only at ≥5; higher GBW (80 MHz) and faster settling (450 ns @ 0.01%). | Requires minimum noise gain of 5 - unsuitable for unity-gain buffers or integrators without compensation. | Select OPA637AM only when closed-loop gain ≥5 is guaranteed and bandwidth >16 MHz is needed; avoid in gain-of-one circuits. |
Compared with OPA627BM, the OPA627AM trades tighter initial offset for extended temperature qualification; compared with OPA637AM, it sacrifices speed for unconditional unity-gain stability - making OPA627AM the sole choice for uncompensated precision buffers across military-grade thermal ranges.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the OPA627AM?
The OPA627AM is specified for operation from –55°C to +125°C, making it suitable for extreme-environment applications including military, aerospace, and downhole instrumentation. This extended range is confirmed in Section 5.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) and Table 5.7 of the SBOS165C datasheet, distinguishing it from commercial variants like OPA627BM.
Is the OPA627AM unity-gain stable, and why does that matter?
Yes, the OPA627AM is unity-gain stable - meaning it remains stable with closed-loop gain = 1 without external compensation. This is critical for buffer, voltage-follower, and integrator applications where phase margin would otherwise collapse. The OPA627AM achieves this via internal compensation optimized for wide supply and temperature ranges, unlike the OPA637AM which requires gain ≥5.
What are the key noise specifications of the OPA627AM?
The OPA627AM has 4.8 nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 10 kHz and 0.8 µVPP integrated noise (0.1 Hz–10 Hz). Its input current noise is 2.5 fA/√Hz at 100 Hz. These values enable high-SNR amplification of microvolt-level signals from high-impedance sources such as piezoelectric sensors or photodiodes - directly supporting precision instrumentation and ultrasound receive chains.
Can the OPA627AM be used in TO-99 and SOIC-8 packages interchangeably?
Yes - the OPA627AM is offered in both 8-pin SOIC (D package) and 8-pin metal TO-99 (LMC package), with identical electrical specifications and pin functions except for offset trim terminals (present only on TO-99). Thermal resistance differs: RθJA = 121.5°C/W (SOIC) vs. 200°C/W (TO-99), so heatsinking or layout must be adapted accordingly for thermal management.
How does the OPA627AM's input bias current compare to other precision op amps?
The OPA627AM specifies ≤10 pA maximum input bias current at 25°C and ≤2 nA over –25°C to +85°C - among the lowest for JFET-input op amps in its class. This outperforms bipolar-input devices (typically nA range) and exceeds many competing FET op amps, enabling accurate amplification of signals from sources with impedances >1 GΩ, such as electret microphones or radiation detectors.
