Product details
Overview
THS3061D from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-voltage, current-feedback amplifier optimized for low-distortion, high-slew-rate signal conditioning. It delivers 7000 V/µs slew rate at ±15 V supplies, 300 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, –81 dBc 3rd-harmonic distortion at 10 MHz (G = 2, RL = 150 Ω), and ±145 mA output drive into 50 Ω - enabling use in video line drivers, VDSL line drivers, and high-voltage ADC preamplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the THS3061D datasheet, THS3061D pinout, THS3061D application, or THS3061D equivalent, key selection criteria include its current-feedback architecture's gain-bandwidth independence, PowerPAD-enhanced thermal performance in SOIC-8, and verified operation across ±5 V to ±15 V supplies with < 0.3 dB peaking in unity gain.
Technical Context
The THS3061D implements a current-feedback topology using TI's BiCOM-1 dielectrically isolated bipolar process, enabling high fT transistors and stable wideband response without gain-dependent bandwidth roll-off. Its transimpedance gain of 0.6–1 MΩ (min) and low 71 Ω inverting-input resistance define its feedback node impedance behavior.
It operates with dual supplies from ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V absolute max, supports noninverting and inverting configurations, and requires external feedback/gain resistors selected per gain (e.g., 560 Ω at G = 2, 357 Ω at G = 5). The device exhibits 0.1-dB flat bandwidth up to 120 MHz (G = 2) and maintains < 0.3 dB peaking at unity gain.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 300 MHz - enables stable high-frequency closed-loop operation without phase-margin collapse at G = 1. |
| Slew Rate | 7000 V/µs at ±15 V - supports full-scale 20-V step response in < 3 ns with minimal slewing distortion. |
| 3rd Harmonic Distortion | –81 dBc at 10 MHz, G = 2, RL = 150 Ω - meets broadcast video differential gain/phase specs (0.02%/0.01°). |
| Output Current Drive | ±145 mA into 50 Ω - drives twisted-pair telecom lines or back-terminated video loads without external buffers. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±5 V to ±15 V - supports industrial and instrumentation rails; quiescent current remains ≤12 mA across range. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 2.6 nV/√Hz - dominates system noise when source impedance < 500 Ω, critical for low-noise preamp stages. |
| 0.1-dB Flat Bandwidth | 120 MHz at G = 2 - ensures amplitude fidelity across HD video baseband (0–108 MHz) with < 0.1 dB ripple. |
Pinout & Package
The THS3061D is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package) with PowerPAD thermally enhanced construction. The exposed thermal pad must be soldered to a PCB copper plane for reliable operation at full output current.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NC) | No internal connection | Unused pin; must be left floating or grounded per layout best practices for noise immunity. |
| 2 (VIN−) | Inverting input | Low-impedance node (71 Ω); sets feedback path; sensitive to trace inductance in high-speed layouts. |
| 3 (VIN+) | Noninverting input | High-impedance node (518 kΩ); used for reference biasing or signal injection in noninverting configurations. |
| 4 (VS−) | Negative supply rail | Return path for internal bias and output stage; requires low-ESR local decoupling (0.1 µF + 10 µF). |
| 5 (NC) | No internal connection | Unused pin; no electrical function; avoid routing signals underneath. |
| 6 (VS+) | Positive supply rail | Power input for output stage and bias circuits; shares thermal pad thermal path with VS−. |
| 7 (VOUT) | Amplifier output | Capable of ±145 mA sink/source into 50 Ω; requires controlled-impedance routing and ground return symmetry. |
| 8 (NC) | No internal connection | Unused pin; electrically isolated; ties to package thermal slug but not silicon. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current-feedback architecture | Decouples bandwidth from closed-loop gain - 220 MHz –3 dB BW maintained at G = 10 via 200 Ω feedback resistor. |
| PowerPAD thermal enhancement | θJA = 97.5°C/W (SOIC-8); enables 1.02 W dissipation at TA ≤ 25°C - critical for sustained 145 mA output into 50 Ω. |
| Low harmonic distortion | –81 dBc 3rd HD at 10 MHz ensures compliance with NTSC/PAL video standards and VDSL spectral mask requirements. |
| Wide supply range | Operates from ±5 V to ±15 V with monotonic PSRR > 63 dB - simplifies integration into mixed-rail systems without level-shifting. |
| Fast settling time | 125 ns to 0.01% for 2 V step (G = –2) - supports high-throughput data acquisition and pulse-amplification applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed current-feedback amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS3061DGNR | Same die, MSOP-8-PP package with lower θJA (58.4°C/W) and smaller footprint; identical AC/DC specs. | Preferred for space-constrained PCBs requiring higher power density; requires thermal pad soldering. | Select THS3061DGNR when board area is limited and thermal management via PCB copper is feasible. |
| OPA691 | Wider 350 mA output drive, higher 350 MHz GBW, but higher 12.5 mA IQ; uses voltage-feedback architecture. | Better suited for ultra-high-current loads (>200 mA) or where voltage-feedback stability margins simplify design. | Choose OPA691 only if ≥350 mA drive or >300 MHz bandwidth is required; THS3061D offers superior distortion at 10–100 MHz. |
Compared with THS3061DGNR, the THS3061D offers identical electrical performance in a larger SOIC-8 package with simpler thermal layout; versus OPA691, it trades peak current and bandwidth for lower distortion and quiescent power in standard video and telecom line-driving roles.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating voltage for the THS3061D?
The THS3061D has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of ±16.5 V. Continuous operation is specified from ±5 V to ±15 V, with thermal limits dictating derating above ±15 V. Exceeding ±16.5 V risks permanent damage per TI SLOS394B Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does the THS3061D require external compensation components?
No, the THS3061D is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and does not require external capacitors. Stability is ensured by selecting appropriate feedback resistors per Table 1 in the datasheet (e.g., 750 Ω for G = 1, 560 Ω for G = 2), with 1% tolerance recommended for optimal phase margin.
Can the THS3061D drive a 75 Ω coaxial cable directly?
Yes, the THS3061D can drive 75 Ω loads directly with full performance: at ±15 V supplies, it delivers ±13 V output swing into 75 Ω and maintains –81 dBc 3rd-harmonic distortion at 10 MHz, meeting SMPTE 259M and ITU-R BT.601 video line-driver requirements without external buffering.
How does the PowerPAD on the THS3061D package affect thermal design?
Although the THS3061D (SOIC-8 D package) does not incorporate PowerPAD - that feature is exclusive to DGN and DDA variants - its standard SOIC-8 still requires adequate copper pour on the VS+ and VS− pins. For THS3061D, thermal design relies on standard SOIC-8 θJA = 97.5°C/W; no thermal pad soldering is needed or possible.
Is the THS3061D suitable for driving ADC inputs in DC-coupled configurations?
Yes, the THS3061D supports DC-coupled ADC driving with ±13.3 V output swing into 150 Ω at ±15 V supplies, input offset voltage ≤ ±4.5 mV, and 0.02% differential gain error - preserving DC accuracy and dynamic range for 16-bit+ converters in instrumentation and medical imaging systems.
