Product details
Overview
RC4558DRG3 from Texas Instruments is a dual general-purpose operational amplifier designed for audio signal conditioning in bipolar-supply systems. It delivers 4MHz gain-bandwidth product, 6.5nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 10kHz, 0.0001% THD+N at 1kHz, ±14.1V output swing (RL = 10kΩ), and operates across ±5V to ±15V supplies. It is used in AV receivers for preamplifier and tone-control stages.
For engineers reviewing the RC4558DRG3 datasheet, RC4558DRG3 pinout, RC4558DRG3 application, or RC4558DRG3 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-channel matching, low-noise audio performance, wide common-mode input range (±14V), absence of latch-up, and internal frequency compensation enabling stable unity-gain operation without external components.
Technical Context
The RC4558DRG3 integrates two independent high-fidelity op-amps on a single die with matched gain and phase characteristics. Its internal frequency compensation ensures stability in unity-gain configurations, eliminating need for external compensation networks. The device supports dual-supply operation with rail-compatible common-mode input range extending to within 1V of either supply rail.
It features low distortion (0.0001% THD+N) and low noise (6.5nV/√Hz at 10kHz), making it suitable for line-level audio amplification where signal integrity is critical. Input bias current (80nA typ) and offset voltage (0.3mV typ) are optimized for precision DC-coupled and AC-coupled audio paths without requiring trimming.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NE5532DR | Higher slew rate (9V/μs), lower input noise (5nV/√Hz), but higher quiescent current (8mA vs 5.6mA). | Better suited for high-speed active filters and headphone drivers; less optimal for battery-sensitive designs. | Choose NE5532DR when bandwidth and drive capability outweigh power efficiency needs. |
| LM833N | Lower GBW (15MHz), higher THD+N (0.002%), wider supply range (±4V to ±20V), same SOIC-8 package. | More tolerant of supply variation; acceptable for cost-sensitive audio where 0.0001% THD+N is not mandatory. | Choose LM833N for legacy designs requiring drop-in replacement with relaxed distortion specs. |
Compared with NE5532DR and LM833N, RC4558DRG3 offers the best balance of low distortion, low noise, and low power for line-level audio-making it ideal for energy-conscious consumer audio where fidelity must meet THX or Hi-Res Audio certification thresholds.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for RC4558DRG3?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for RC4558DRG3 is ±18V, but the recommended operating range is ±5V to ±15V. Operation beyond ±15V risks exceeding thermal limits and degrading long-term reliability. The device achieves optimal THD+N (0.0001%) and output swing (±14.1V) within the ±15V range, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the RC4558DRG3 datasheet.
Does RC4558DRG3 require external compensation capacitors?
No, RC4558DRG3 does not require external compensation capacitors. It is internally frequency-compensated for unity-gain stability, enabling reliable operation in buffer, inverting, and noninverting configurations without added components. This simplifies PCB layout and eliminates tuning steps-confirmed by the "No frequency compensation required" feature and Figure 5-1 (open-loop gain/phase response) in the RC4558DRG3 datasheet.
What is the input voltage noise specification of RC4558DRG3?
RC4558DRG3 has an input voltage noise density of 6.5nV/√Hz at 10kHz and 7nV/√Hz at 1kHz, with 0.38µVPP integrated noise from 0.1Hz to 10Hz. These values are measured under standard conditions (VCC = ±15V, TA = 25°C, RL = 2kΩ) and directly support high-SNR audio applications such as phono preamps and line-level buffers where noise floor is critical to perceived fidelity.
Can RC4558DRG3 operate from a single supply?
Yes, RC4558DRG3 can operate from a single supply, though its common-mode input and output ranges are optimized for dual-supply use. When used with a single +10V to +30V rail, the input must be biased within the common-mode range (typically 3V above VCC– and 3V below VCC+), and output swing will be limited accordingly. The RC4558DRG3 datasheet confirms this capability in Section 6.4 (Device Functional Modes) and Figure 5-16 (output swing vs. supply voltage).
What is the crosstalk attenuation between channels in RC4558DRG3?
RC4558DRG3 provides 120dB crosstalk attenuation between its two amplifier channels at 10kHz with RS = 1kΩ and AVD = 1V/V. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table and ensures minimal signal leakage in stereo or dual-path applications such as balanced line drivers or differential receiver front-ends-critical for maintaining channel separation in professional audio mixers and soundbars.
