Product details
Overview
OPA814DR from Texas Instruments is a unity-gain stable, FET-input voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for high-speed, high-precision signal conditioning in wide-dynamic-range systems. It delivers 600 MHz small-signal bandwidth at G = 1 V/V, 750 V/µs slew rate, and ±250 µV max input offset voltage - enabling high-fidelity buffering and amplification in optical front-ends and high-speed data acquisition channels.
For engineers reviewing the OPA814DR datasheet, OPA814DR pinout, OPA814DR application, or OPA814DR equivalent, this device supports critical design decisions involving wideband transimpedance gain stages, low-distortion active probe interfaces, precision high-impedance digitizer front-ends, and test equipment signal path conditioning where JFET input bias current (2 pA) and voltage noise (5.3 nV/√Hz) directly impact SNR and dynamic range.
Technical Context
The OPA814DR employs a proprietary SiGe complementary bipolar process with a low-noise JFET input stage, achieving 250 MHz gain-bandwidth product while maintaining unity-gain stability and 65° phase margin. Its open-loop response features a dominant pole at ~250 kHz and a second pole beyond 0 dB, ensuring robust stability without external compensation.
This amplifier operates from ±6.3 V (6–12.6 V total supply), supports both single- and dual-supply configurations, and maintains specified performance across –40°C to +85°C. Input common-mode range extends to within 1.3 V of either rail, and output swing reaches ±3.7 V into no load with 100 Ω load capability up to ±3.4 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (G = 1) | 600 MHz - enables full-spectrum fidelity in 100+ MHz analog signal paths without gain peaking. |
| Slew rate | 750 V/µs - supports clean 2 VPP large-signal reproduction up to 200 MHz without slewing distortion. |
| Input offset voltage | ±250 µV max - ensures <0.025% gain error in 10 V full-scale precision DAQ front-ends. |
| Input voltage noise | 5.3 nV/√Hz - preserves SNR in high-Z transimpedance stages with >1 MΩ feedback resistors. |
| Input bias current | 2 pA - minimizes DC error and leakage-induced drift in photodiode and sensor interface circuits. |
| Harmonic distortion (10 MHz) | –75 dBc HD2 / –85 dBc HD3 - meets spectral purity requirements for optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR) and oscilloscope front-ends. |
| Supply current | 16 mA - balances high-speed performance with thermal manageability in compact PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
OPA814DR is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), 4.9 mm × 6 mm body size, with exposed pad not present. Pin functions are validated per TI SBOSA14A Rev. November 2023.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 8 | No connect (NC) | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice. |
| 2 | Inverting input (IN–) | Differential input node; requires matched trace length and impedance control for optimal CMRR. |
| 3 | Noninverting input (IN+) | High-impedance JFET input; sensitive to stray capacitance - keep routing short and guard-traced. |
| 4 | Negative supply (VS–) | Return path for bias and output current; requires low-inductance local decoupling (e.g., 100 nF + 10 µF). |
| 6 | Output (OUT) | Low-impedance voltage source; drive capability limited to ±30 mA continuous; isolate with series resistor if driving capacitive loads >10 pF. |
| 7 | Positive supply (VS+) | Primary power rail; supports 6–12.6 V operation; reject ratio >79 dB against supply ripple up to 100 kHz. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| FET-input architecture | Enables 2 pA input bias current and 12 GΩ || 2.5 pF input impedance - critical for photodiode and piezoelectric sensor interfaces. |
| Unity-gain stable | Guarantees stable operation without external compensation at G = 1 V/V - simplifies high-Z buffer design in active probes and scope inputs. |
| 600-MHz SSBW at G = 1 | Supports full-power bandwidth for 100+ MS/s ADC drivers and real-time spectrum analysis front-ends without gain-dependent bandwidth roll-off. |
| Low 1/f noise corner | 2 kHz corner frequency - maintains low integrated noise in DC-coupled medical analyzer and chemical spectroscopy signal chains. |
| ±6.3-V supply range | Permits ±5 V or +10 V single-supply operation - accommodates legacy test equipment rails and high-voltage optical receiver biasing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, high-precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA817 | Higher GBW (400 MHz), faster slew rate (1000 V/µs), lower voltage noise (4.5 nV/√Hz), but same 1-V/V minimum stable gain. | Better suited for >500 MHz closed-loop designs requiring higher loop gain margin; slightly higher quiescent current (18 mA). | Select OPA817 when bandwidth extension beyond 600 MHz is required and supply current budget allows +2 mA increase. |
| OPA656 | Lower GBW (230 MHz), slower slew rate (290 V/µs), higher input noise (7 nV/√Hz), but wider supply range (±5 V to ±12 V) and lower cost. | Targeted at medium-speed precision applications (e.g., 100–200 MHz DAQ); less suitable for OTDR or 1-GHz probe designs. | Choose OPA656 for cost-sensitive, lower-bandwidth instrumentation where 250 µV offset and 2 pA bias remain acceptable. |
Compared with OPA814DR, OPA817 offers measurable bandwidth and noise advantages for next-generation optical receivers, while OPA656 provides a proven, lower-cost alternative for legacy 200 MHz-class test equipment - neither is pin-compatible, requiring layout revision for substitution.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for the OPA814DR?
The OPA814DR supports a total supply voltage range of 6 V to 12.6 V, corresponding to ±6.3 V dual supply or +12.6 V single supply. Exceeding 12.6 V violates absolute maximum ratings and risks permanent damage. Operation at 12 V is common in high-output-swing applications like active probes, where it enables ±3.7 V output swing into high-Z loads.
Does the OPA814DR require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the OPA814DR is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external compensation components. Its open-loop response exhibits >65° phase margin at G = 1 V/V, verified across process, voltage, and temperature. This eliminates design risk in high-impedance buffer configurations used in oscilloscope inputs and DAQ front-ends.
Can the OPA814DR be used in transimpedance amplifier (TIA) circuits?
Yes, the OPA814DR is well-suited for wideband TIA applications due to its 2 pA input bias current, 5.3 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and 250 MHz gain-bandwidth product. In photodiode interfaces, it achieves >1 GHz closed-loop bandwidth with appropriate feedback resistor and capacitor selection - confirmed in TI's application note SBAA354.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of the OPA814DR?
The OPA814DR supports an input common-mode voltage range from (VS– + 1.3 V) to (VS+ – 1.3 V) under typical conditions. For ±5 V supplies, this spans –3.7 V to +3.7 V; for +10 V single supply, it covers +1.3 V to +8.7 V. This wide range accommodates mid-rail referencing in single-supply DAQ systems and differential signaling in dual-supply test equipment.
How does the OPA814DR compare to the OPA818 in terms of bandwidth and application fit?
The OPA818 offers significantly higher gain-bandwidth (2700 MHz) and slew rate (1400 V/µs) but requires minimum stable gain of 7 V/V - making it unsuitable for unity-gain buffers. The OPA814DR remains preferred for G = 1 applications like active probes and high-Z buffers, whereas the OPA818 targets high-gain RF amplifier stages where stability at low gains is not required.
