Product details
Overview
OPA684IDBVTG4 from Texas Instruments is a low-power, current-feedback operational amplifier with disable control, designed for high-bandwidth video and signal conditioning applications. It delivers 120MHz bandwidth at G = +10, –78dBc 2nd-harmonic distortion at 5MHz (RL ≥ 1kΩ), ±4V output swing on ±5V supplies, and 1.7mA quiescent current - enabling broadcast video drivers, ADC input stages, and multichannel summing amplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the OPA684IDBVTG4 datasheet, OPA684IDBVTG4 pinout, OPA684IDBVTG4 application, or OPA684IDBVTG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its CFBplus architecture's gain-independent bandwidth, 100µA shutdown current, SOT-23-6 package footprint, and verified performance in NTSC composite video (0.04% differential gain, 0.02° differential phase) under ±5V operation.
Technical Context
The OPA684IDBVTG4 employs a patented CFBplus architecture featuring an internally closed-loop input buffer stage that linearizes inverting-input impedance, minimizing bandwidth degradation and harmonic distortion across gain settings. This enables stable 0.1dB gain flatness up to 19MHz at G = +2 and supports peaking-free frequency response tuning via external feedback elements.
Its dual-supply (±2.5V to ±6V) and single-supply (+2.8V to +12V) operation is enabled by supply-independent biasing, while the DIS pin provides true high-impedance I/O state during shutdown. The inverting input presents only 2.5Ω open-loop resistance, and the non-inverting input exhibits 50kΩ || 2pF impedance - critical for maintaining stability in high-speed summing and filter configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-Signal Bandwidth (G = +10) | 120MHz - supports >100MHz video baseband and IF signal paths without gain-dependent roll-off |
| 2nd-Harmonic Distortion (5MHz, RL ≥ 1kΩ) | –78dBc - meets broadcast-grade NTSC/PAL video linearity requirements |
| Output Current (Sourcing) | 160mA min - drives 100Ω loads with ±4V swing and supports up to four 150Ω video loads |
| Quiescent Current | 1.7mA max (±5V) - enables battery-powered or thermally constrained portable video systems |
| Shutdown Current | 100µA max - reduces system standby power by >94% while preserving PCB layout |
| Differential Gain/Phase (NTSC) | 0.04% / 0.02° - qualifies for professional camera and studio broadcast signal chain use |
| Rise/Fall Time (G = +2, 4V step) | 6.8ns - ensures sub-10ns transient response for fast-pulse and digital waveform conditioning |

SOT-23-6 package (DBV), 6-pin surface-mount, 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint, 0.95mm height, thermal resistance θJA = 150°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Amplifier Output | Low-impedance, high-current node capable of sourcing/sinking ≥120mA into 100Ω load |
| 2 (–IN) | Inverting Input | 2.5Ω open-loop resistance; senses feedback error current; requires precise RF placement for stability |
| 3 (+IN) | Noninverting Input | 50kΩ || 2pF impedance; sets common-mode reference; DC-biased at VS/2 in single-supply configs |
| 4 (–VS) | Negative Supply Rail | Supports bipolar operation down to –6V; connects to ground in single-supply mode |
| 5 (DIS) | Disable Control (Active-Low) | Pulled LOW disables amplifier, reducing supply current to ≤100µA and placing I/O in high-Z state |
| 6 (+VS) | Positive Supply Rail | Accepts +2.8V to +12V (single) or ±2.5V to ±6V (dual); internal biasing maintains performance across range |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-feedback amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA683IDBVT | Lower quiescent current (1.3mA), reduced bandwidth (80MHz @ G=+10), no disable pin | Better suited for always-on, ultra-low-power portable video where shutdown is unnecessary | Select when system-level power budget is tighter than 1.5mA and full OPA684 bandwidth is not required |
| OPA691IDBVR | Higher slew rate (1800 V/µs), greater output current (200mA), 500MHz bandwidth, 2.5mA supply current | Targeted at high-speed instrumentation requiring >300MHz small-signal BW and >100mA drive into 50Ω | Choose when OPA684IDBVTG4 bandwidth or output current is insufficient for demanding IF or pulse applications |
Compared with OPA684IDBVTG4, OPA683IDBVT trades bandwidth and disable functionality for lower static power, while OPA691IDBVR delivers significantly higher speed and drive at increased supply current - making OPA684IDBVTG4 the optimal balance of low power, video-grade linearity, and integrated disable control in SOT-23-6.

FAQ
What supply voltages does the OPA684IDBVTG4 support?
The OPA684IDBVTG4 operates from ±2.5V to ±6V dual supplies or +2.8V to +12V single supply. Its internal biasing maintains consistent AC performance across this full range. At ±5V, it achieves 120MHz bandwidth at G = +10 and 1.7mA quiescent current; at +5V single supply, bandwidth reduces to 87MHz at G = +10 but retains video-grade linearity and 1.44mA supply current - verified in TI's SBOS219D datasheet Section 4.
How does the OPA684IDBVTG4 achieve gain-independent bandwidth?
The OPA684IDBVTG4 uses a patented CFBplus architecture with an internally closed-loop input buffer that linearizes the inverting-input impedance to ~2.5Ω. This isolates bandwidth from gain-setting resistor (RG) variations, enabling 160MHz bandwidth at G = +2 and 120MHz at G = +10 - a <25% reduction versus conventional CFB amps. This behavior is confirmed in Figure 1 and Table 1 of the SBOS219D datasheet.
What is the function of the DIS pin on the OPA684IDBVTG4?
The DIS pin on the OPA684IDBVTG4 is an active-low disable control. When pulled LOW, it reduces supply current to ≤100µA and places both input and output pins in high-impedance state - enabling dynamic power gating. Leaving DIS open or HIGH maintains normal operation. Enable time is 40ns and disable time is 4ms, as measured in Figure 7 of the SBOS219D datasheet.
Can the OPA684IDBVTG4 drive multiple 150Ω video loads?
Yes - the OPA684IDBVTG4 delivers 160mA sourcing current and ±4V output swing on ±5V supplies, enabling it to drive up to four parallel 150Ω video loads (equivalent to 37.5Ω) while maintaining 0.09% differential gain and 0.09° differential phase per TI's Figure 15. This capability is validated in the "Low-Power Video Line Driver Applications" section of SBOS219D.
What is the typical harmonic distortion performance of the OPA684IDBVTG4 at 5MHz?
At 5MHz, G = +2, VO = 2VPP, and RL ≥ 1kΩ, the OPA684IDBVTG4 achieves –78dBc 2nd-harmonic distortion and –89dBc 3rd-harmonic distortion - meeting broadcast video standards. With RL = 100Ω, distortion degrades to –67dBc (2nd) and –70dBc (3rd), as specified in Table 1 (AC Performance) of SBOS219D. This performance is enabled by the CFBplus input stage's improved linearity.
