Product details
Overview
OPA634N/3K from Texas Instruments is a wideband, single-supply voltage-feedback operational amplifier in SOT23-5 package, featuring 150MHz small-signal bandwidth (G = +2, +5V supply), 250V/µs slew rate, 5.6nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 80mA output drive, and rail-to-rail output swing within 30mV of ground and 140mV of VS. It serves as high-fidelity ADC input buffer and composite video line driver in portable instrumentation and low-power imaging systems.
For engineers reviewing the OPA634N/3K datasheet, OPA634N/3K pinout, OPA634N/3K application, or OPA634N/3K equivalent, key selection criteria include its +3V to +10V single-supply operation, ground-sensing input range, 4.8V output swing on +5V, low distortion at 5–20MHz, and SOT23-5 thermal resistance of 150°C/W - all critical for space-constrained, battery-powered signal conditioning designs.
Technical Context
The OPA634N/3K employs a voltage-feedback architecture with complementary common-emitter output stage, enabling output swing to within 30mV of ground and 140mV of VS while maintaining unity-gain stability. Its input stage operates down to –0.25V (at +3V supply) and up to 1.8V, supporting true DC-coupled level-shifting interfaces.
Unlike disable-capable OPA635, the OPA634N/3K lacks a DIS pin and delivers continuous operation with 10.8–13.5mA quiescent current across –40°C to +85°C. Its gain-bandwidth product remains stable at ≥140MHz (G ≥ +10), and peaking is limited to 5dB at G = +1 - optimized for flat response in gain-of-2 video and ADC buffer configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-Signal Bandwidth | 150MHz at G = +2, +5V supply - enables full HD video signal amplification without attenuation |
| Slew Rate | 250V/µs - supports clean 2V-step transient response in <15ns settling time to 0.1% |
| Input Voltage Noise | 5.6nV/√Hz above 1MHz - preserves SNR in wide-dynamic-range CCD and ultrasound front-ends |
| Output Drive Current | 80mA sourcing / 100mA sinking - drives 150Ω video loads and 1kΩ ADC inputs simultaneously |
| Input Voltage Range | –0.25V to +1.8V at +3V supply - allows direct coupling of 0–0.5V sensor outputs with no level-shifter |
| Output Voltage Swing | 0.035V to 2.9V (RL = 1kΩ, +3V) - delivers >2.8Vp-p usable swing for 10-bit ADCs like ADS900 |
| Supply Voltage Range | +2.7V to +10.5V - supports operation from Li-ion battery (3.0–4.2V) to industrial +5V/+10V rails |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 package (Texas Instruments drawing 331), 5-pin surface-mount, thermal resistance θJA = 150°C/W, rated for –40°C to +85°C ambient operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NC) | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice |
| 2 (Inverting Input) | Inverting input node | Accepts feedback network; requires matched impedance to non-inverting input for offset minimization |
| 3 (Non-Inverting Input) | Non-inverting input node | DC-biased via resistor divider for level-shifting; supports input down to –0.25V at +3V supply |
| 4 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for input bias current and output load; must connect to low-impedance ground plane |
| 5 (+VS) | Positive supply terminal | Accepts +2.7V to +10.5V; bypassing with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor directly at pin is mandatory |
| 6 (Output) | Amplifier output | Drives resistive or capacitive loads up to 1000pF; output impedance <0.2Ω below 100kHz |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wideband single-supply operation | 150MHz bandwidth at G = +2 on +5V - eliminates need for dual supplies in portable video/ADC systems |

| Rail-to-rail output swing | Swings to within 30mV of GND and 140mV of VS - maximizes dynamic range into 3V ADCs |
| Low distortion at high frequency | –63dBc SFDR at 5MHz, 2Vp-p - meets NTSC differential gain (0.10%) and phase (0.16°) specs |
| High output drive capability | 80mA sourcing into 150Ω - sustains 4.65V output swing driving composite video standard loads |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, single-supply op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA635N/3K | Includes DIS pin; 0µA disabled quiescent current vs 10.8mA active; same SOT23-6 pinout except DIS added | Required where system-level power gating is needed; not pin-compatible due to extra DIS pin and 6-pin footprint | Select OPA635N/3K only if hardware-level enable/disable control is required; otherwise OPA634N/3K offers identical performance with simpler layout |
| OPA695U | Higher bandwidth (1.7GHz GBW), higher supply current (17mA), SO-8 only; no ground-sensing input (min VIN = VS–1.2V) | Better for RF IF stages >100MHz; unsuitable for sub-1V sensor interfacing due to input range limitation | Choose OPA695U when >500MHz closed-loop bandwidth is needed; avoid for DC-coupled low-voltage sensor buffers |
Compared with OPA635N/3K, OPA634N/3K eliminates disable circuitry to reduce cost and board area in always-on applications; compared with OPA695U, it trades bandwidth for ground-referenced input and lower power - making it optimal for 3–20MHz portable signal chains where input headroom and efficiency are critical.

FAQ
What supply voltage range does the OPA634N/3K support?
The OPA634N/3K operates from +2.7V to +10.5V single supply, with guaranteed specifications at +3V and +5V. At +3V, it delivers 110MHz bandwidth (G = +2) and 2.8Vp-p output swing into 1kΩ; at +5V, bandwidth increases to 150MHz and output swing reaches 4.8V. Minimum operating voltage is strictly 2.7V - operation below this risks undefined behavior and is not characterized.
Does the OPA634N/3K have a disable pin?
No, the OPA634N/3K does not include a disable (DIS) pin. That feature is exclusive to the OPA635 variant (e.g., OPA635N/3K), which uses a 6-pin SOT23-6 package. The OPA634N/3K is a 5-pin SOT23-5 device with fixed operation and 10.8–13.5mA quiescent current across temperature - ideal for always-on signal paths where power gating is unnecessary.
What is the input voltage range of the OPA634N/3K at +3V supply?
At +3V supply, the OPA634N/3K input voltage range is specified from –0.25V (minimum) to +1.8V (maximum) at TA = 25°C, extending to –0.01V and +1.5V over full –40°C to +85°C range. This ground-sensing capability enables direct connection of 0–0.5V sensor outputs without level-shifting circuitry - a key advantage over rail-to-rail input op amps that require VIN ≥ 0V.
Can the OPA634N/3K drive a 150Ω video load?
Yes, the OPA634N/3K is explicitly characterized to drive 150Ω loads to VS/2, delivering 4.65V minimum output voltage swing on +5V supply and 2.8V on +3V supply. Its 80mA sourcing and 100mA sinking capability, combined with <0.2Ω closed-loop output impedance below 100kHz, ensures stable NTSC-compliant video drive with 0.10% differential gain and 0.16° differential phase error - verified in TI's SBOS097A datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance of the OPA634N/3K package?
The OPA634N/3K uses the SOT23-5 package (TI drawing 331) with a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 150°C/W, as specified in the SBOS097A datasheet. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions; actual thermal performance improves with copper pour and thermal vias. Maximum junction temperature is 175°C, limiting max ambient to +85°C at 13.5mA IQ and typical PCB layout.
