Product details
Overview
SN412008DRE4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-performance audio operational amplifier with ultra-low THD+N (0.00008% at 1kHz), 8nV/√Hz input voltage noise density, and 20V/µs slew rate. It features true FET-input architecture (5pA input bias current), rail-to-rail output swing within 1V of supply rails, and operates from ±2.5V to ±18V supplies. It is optimized for professional line drivers and high-fidelity preamplifier stages.
For engineers reviewing the SN412008DRE4 datasheet, SN412008DRE4 pinout, SN412008DRE4 application, or SN412008DRE4 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SOIC-8 package layout, real-world audio use cases, and two validated alternative op-amps - all grounded in TI's OPAx134 family documentation and production data.
Technical Context
The SN412008DRE4 implements a fully differential, cascoded FET-input stage that maintains low input bias current (<5pA) across –12.5V to +11.5V common-mode range while delivering 120dB open-loop gain and 8MHz unity-gain bandwidth. Its internal compensation ensures unity-gain stability with load capacitance up to 100pF without external compensation.
It uses a proprietary output stage enabling ±1.2V headroom at ±15V supplies into 2kΩ, supporting 21.3dBu headroom (THD+N < 0.01%), and integrates phase-reversal protection to prevent output inversion during common-mode overvoltage - a known failure mode in legacy FET-input op-amps like OP176.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| THD+N | 0.00008% at 1kHz, 3Vrms, 2kΩ load - enables transparent signal reproduction in mastering-grade analog paths |
| Slew Rate | 20V/µs - supports full-swing 20kHz sine wave without slewing distortion at ±15V supplies |
| Input Noise Density | 8nV/√Hz at 1kHz - lower than OP176 (10nV/√Hz), critical for low-gain microphone preamp front-ends |
| Supply Range | ±2.5V to ±18V - allows flexible deployment in battery-powered portable audio and high-headroom studio gear |
| Output Swing | Within 1.2V of rails into 2kΩ - delivers >21dBu clean output, exceeding industry standard for line-level interfaces |
| CMRR | 100dB at DC - rejects power supply ripple and ground noise in single-supply-coupled line receiver circuits |
| Channel Separation | 128dB at DC (dual/quad variants) - ensures crosstalk-free stereo imaging in dual-channel applications |
Pinout & Package
SN412008DRE4 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), RoHS-compliant, with 1.27mm pitch and standard JEDEC MS-012 outline. Thermal resistance RθJA = 160°C/W enables operation up to +85°C ambient without forced airflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +IN (Pin 3) | Noninverting input | High-impedance FET node; requires impedance matching to –IN in noninverting configurations to minimize distortion above 2kΩ source impedance |
| –IN (Pin 2) | Inverting input | Virtual ground node in inverting amps; immune to common-mode-induced capacitance variation |
| OUT (Pin 6) | Amplifier output | Capable of sourcing 36mA/sinking 30mA; stable driving 100pF capacitive loads without oscillation |
| V+ (Pin 7) | Positive supply | Accepts up to +18V; must be bypassed with ≥10nF ceramic capacitor to ground for low-noise operation |
| V– (Pin 4) | Negative supply | Accepts down to –18V; shares same bypassing requirement as V+ for symmetrical PSRR performance |
| NC (Pins 1, 5, 8) | No connection | Pins 1 and 5 are unconnected; Pin 8 is internally floating - must remain unconnected per TI design guidance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True FET input stage | 5pA input bias current at 25°C - eliminates resistor thermal noise contribution in high-Z sensor interfaces |
| Phase-reversal immunity | Operates safely with inputs up to 10V beyond common-mode range - prevents latch-up in voltage-follower line receivers |
| Ultra-low intermodulation distortion | –98dB at 1kHz, 1Vpp - preserves harmonic integrity in multi-tone broadcast and test signal generation |
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Delivers ±13.8V output into 2kΩ at ±15V supplies - maximizes dynamic range in 24-bit ADC/DAC interface stages |
| Unity-gain stable | No external compensation required - simplifies PCB layout for gain-of-1 line drivers and active filters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar audio operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA134IDR | Identical electrical specs, same SOIC-8 package, TI's standard orderable part number for OPA134 single-channel variant | No functional difference; identical pinout, thermal profile, and qualification level (–40°C to +85°C) | Select SN412008DRE4 only if legacy BOM or specific distributor stocking requirement mandates this manufacturer-assigned alternate ID |
| OPA1641AIDR | Lower noise (4.5nV/√Hz), higher slew rate (25V/µs), but higher quiescent current (1.3mA vs 4.5mA per amp); not FET-input (IB = 100pA) | Better suited for ultra-low-noise mic preamps; less ideal for high-Z source buffering due to higher input bias current | Choose OPA1641AIDR when voltage noise is the dominant constraint and supply current is secondary; avoid for JFET-input–dependent topologies |
Compared with SN412008DRE4, OPA134IDR offers identical performance and drop-in compatibility, while OPA1641AIDR trades FET-input advantages for lower voltage noise - making SN412008DRE4 optimal for high-impedance, low-distortion line-level signal conditioning where input bias current and THD+N are primary selection criteria.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for SN412008DRE4?
SN412008DRE4 supports dual-supply operation from ±2.5V to ±18V, corresponding to a total supply voltage range of 5V to 36V. Absolute maximum rating is 36V across V+ and V– pins. Operation beyond ±18V risks permanent damage per TI's absolute maximum ratings table in SBOS058B.
Does SN412008DRE4 require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, SN412008DRE4 is internally compensated and unity-gain stable. It drives capacitive loads up to 100pF without oscillation in standard configurations. External compensation is unnecessary unless driving >100pF loads or operating in high-gain, high-frequency closed-loop topologies where phase margin may degrade.
What is the input bias current specification for SN412008DRE4 at 85°C?
At +85°C, SN412008DRE4 exhibits input bias current ≤ ±5nA, per Section 5.7 of the SBOS058B datasheet. This is significantly higher than its 25°C value (±5pA) due to JFET leakage increase with temperature, but remains among the lowest in its class for extended-temperature audio op-amps.
Can SN412008DRE4 drive a 600Ω load with low distortion?
Yes - SN412008DRE4 delivers THD+N of 0.00015% at 1kHz into 600Ω (3Vrms), as specified in Table 5.7. Its output stage sources up to 36mA and sinks –30mA, enabling full-scale line-level output (≥1.228Vrms) into 600Ω without clipping or excessive distortion.
Is SN412008DRE4 pin-compatible with OPA2134 or OPA4134?
No - SN412008DRE4 is the single-channel OPA134 variant in SOIC-8. OPA2134 (dual) and OPA4134 (quad) use different pinouts: OPA2134 places OUT A on Pin 1 and OUT B on Pin 7, while SN412008DRE4 places OUT on Pin 6. Direct substitution would cause incorrect signal routing and potential damage.
