Product details
Overview
OPA843ID from Texas Instruments is a wideband, low-distortion, medium-gain voltage-feedback operational amplifier in SO-8 package, featuring 800MHz gain-bandwidth product, –96dBc 3rd-harmonic distortion at 5MHz, and 2.0nV/√Hz input voltage noise. It delivers ±100mA output current and settles to 0.01% in 10.5ns - optimized for high-fidelity ADC/DAC buffering and wideband transimpedance applications up to 5MHz.
For engineers reviewing the OPA843ID datasheet, OPA843ID pinout, OPA843ID application, or OPA843ID equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, SO-8 pin mapping, real-world distortion vs. load data, differential driver configuration guidance, and two validated alternative op amps with documented performance trade-offs.
Technical Context
The OPA843ID uses a two-stage voltage-feedback architecture delivering 800MHz gain-bandwidth while maintaining DC precision: 110dB open-loop gain, ±300µV input offset voltage, and >95dB CMRR at DC. Its classic differential input stage enables simultaneous high-speed operation and low-noise signal conditioning without sacrificing DC accuracy.
It supports both noninverting (G = +3 to +20) and inverting (G = –1 to –40) configurations with stable small-signal bandwidths up to 500MHz (G = +3) and maintains <0.1dB gain flatness to 65MHz at G = +5 into 100Ω. Harmonic distortion is dominated by 2nd-harmonic at low frequencies and 3rd-harmonic above 1MHz, with RL-dependent suppression down to –110dBc at 500Ω.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 800MHz minimum - enables stable G = +5 operation up to 260MHz and G = +10 up to 85MHz with predictable closed-loop response. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 2.0nV/√Hz typical above 1MHz - ensures minimal added noise in 12–16-bit converter interfaces and low-noise receiver front-ends. |
| 3rd-Harmonic Distortion | –96dBc maximum at 5MHz, RL = 500Ω - supports high-SFDR signal chains in IF amplification and professional audio where even-order cancellation is critical. |
| Settling Time (0.01%) | 10.5ns typical for 2V step - meets timing budget for fast 12-bit SAR and pipeline ADC drivers requiring sub-12ns acquisition windows. |
| Output Current Drive | ±100mA minimum - sustains full-scale output into 100Ω loads (±3.0V swing) and enables direct driving of 50Ω transmission lines with external termination. |
| Open-Loop Gain | 110dB minimum - provides high loop gain for precise gain accuracy (<0.2dB error with 1% resistors) and robust common-mode rejection in single-ended and differential configurations. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±4V to ±6V - operates from standard ±5V rails with 20.2mA typical quiescent current, enabling compatibility with legacy analog signal chains. |
Pinout & Package
OPA843ID is housed in an SO-8 (D) package with exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 is marked with a dot; pins are numbered counter-clockwise. The device features two no-connect (NC) pins to isolate input and power domains and minimize crosstalk in high-frequency layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No Connection (NC) | Electrically isolated; used for mechanical symmetry and thermal relief - must remain unconnected per TI design guidelines. |
| 2 | Inverting Input (–IN) | Differential input node; requires matched trace length and impedance control when used in inverting or differential configurations. |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (+IN) | Differential input node; referenced to ground or common-mode bias in single-ended applications; sensitive to PCB parasitics above 10MHz. |
| 4 | –VS | Negative supply rail; must be decoupled with 0.1µF ceramic + 2.2µF tantalum close to pin to suppress high-frequency PSRR degradation. |
| 5 | Output (OUT) | Class-AB output stage; capable of ±100mA drive; requires series resistor (e.g., 402Ω) for 50Ω source/load matching in RF test setups. |
| 6 | +VS | Positive supply rail; identical decoupling requirements as –VS; shared return path with –VS must avoid ground bounce in high-slew-rate switching. |
| 7 | No Connection (NC) | Electrically isolated; serves as thermal pad anchor point but carries no signal or power - must not be tied to ground or supply. |
| 8 | No Connection (NC) | Unused terminal; maintains package symmetry and aids automated optical inspection - no routing or soldering required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High dynamic range at medium gain | Combines 260MHz bandwidth at G = +5 with –96dBc 3rd-harmonic distortion - enables clean signal amplification across 12–16-bit converter interfaces without post-processing correction. |
| DC precision in high-speed op amp | ±300µV max input offset voltage and 110dB open-loop gain - preserves absolute accuracy in active filters and precision IF gain stages where gain error must stay below 0.05%. |
| Low-noise transimpedance capability | 2.0nV/√Hz input voltage noise + 2.8pA/√Hz input current noise - supports photodiode amplifiers with >24MHz bandwidth and <1pF feedback capacitance requirements. |
| Fast settling with low overshoot | 10.5ns to 0.01% on 2V step and <1.2ns rise time - eliminates acquisition delay in multiplexed data acquisition systems and high-speed test instrumentation. |
| Differential driver optimization | Validated dual-OPA843 configuration achieves <–100dBc 3rd-harmonic at 4VPP into 400Ω - delivers professional audio line drivers and broadband communications signals with minimal even-order artifacts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar wideband, low-distortion operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA842ID | Lower GBW (200MHz), higher input voltage noise (2.6nV/√Hz), same SO-8 package and pinout. | Reduced bandwidth limits use in >3MHz ADC buffers; acceptable for cost-sensitive IF amplifiers where –90dBc distortion suffices. | Select OPA842ID only when 260MHz bandwidth and –96dBc distortion are not required - saves ~15% BOM cost with identical layout. |
| OPA846IDBVR | Higher GBW (1750MHz), lower noise (1.2nV/√Hz), SOT-23-5 package (5-pin, no NC pins), different pinout. | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB redesign; superior for >100MHz transimpedance or RF sampling clock distribution. | Choose OPA846IDBVR only for new designs targeting >500MHz small-signal bandwidth - not a drop-in replacement for OPA843ID. |
Compared with OPA843ID, OPA842ID trades 30% bandwidth and 0.6nV/√Hz noise for lower cost and identical footprint, while OPA846IDBVR offers 2.2× bandwidth in a smaller 5-pin package but mandates layout revision and lacks NC pins for isolation-critical analog routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended supply voltage for OPA843ID?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for OPA843ID is ±6.5VDC, but the specified operating range is ±4V to ±6V. For reliable long-term operation with full parameter guarantees, TI specifies ±5V as the typical supply - exceeding ±6V risks permanent damage to the internal ESD protection structures and may degrade harmonic distortion performance beyond datasheet limits.
Does OPA843ID support unity-gain stable operation?
OPA843ID is not unity-gain stable - it is optimized for medium-gain configurations (G ≥ +3). At G = +1, the phase margin drops below 30°, causing peaking and potential oscillation. TI explicitly recommends minimum noninverting gain of +3; for lower gains, external compensation (e.g., capacitor across feedback resistor) or inverting configurations with noise gain ≥ +3 are required to ensure stability.
Can OPA843ID drive a 50Ω load directly?
Yes, OPA843ID can drive a 50Ω load directly: its ±100mA output current rating supports ±3.0V swing into 100Ω and ±2.6V into 50Ω per datasheet specifications. However, for optimal 50Ω source termination in RF test setups, TI recommends adding a 402Ω series resistor at the output to match the 50Ω measurement load - preserving bandwidth and minimizing reflections without exceeding current limits.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of OPA843ID in SO-8 package?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) for OPA843ID in SO-8 (D) package is 125°C/W under standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions. This value assumes proper PCB copper pour under the exposed pad area; omitting thermal vias or reducing copper area increases θJA significantly - TI recommends ≥4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter) under the pad to maintain safe junction temperature below 150°C at 20.2mA quiescent current.
How does OPA843ID compare to OPA643 in terms of upgrade path?
OPA843ID is positioned as a direct upgrade to OPA643, offering 2.5× higher gain-bandwidth (800MHz vs. 320MHz), 30% lower input voltage noise (2.0nV/√Hz vs. 2.9nV/√Hz), and 12dB better 3rd-harmonic distortion at 5MHz (–96dBc vs. –84dBc). Unlike OPA643, OPA843ID maintains DC precision (±300µV offset) while achieving these RF-grade specs - making it suitable for next-generation 14-bit+ data acquisition without changing PCB layout.
