Product details
Overview
THS3061DGNR 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 VDSL line drivers and high-voltage ADC preamplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the THS3061DGNR datasheet, THS3061DGNR pinout, THS3061DGNR application, or THS3061DGNR equivalent, key selection criteria include its current-feedback architecture's gain-dependent bandwidth behavior, PowerPAD™ thermal performance in MSOP-8 packaging, ±5 V to ±15 V supply flexibility, and verified video-grade differential gain (0.02%) and phase (0.01°) accuracy.
Technical Context
The THS3061DGNR employs a current-feedback topology with transimpedance gain of 0.7 MΩ (min), where bandwidth scales inversely with feedback resistor value (e.g., 275 MHz at G = 2 with Rf = 560 Ω, 220 MHz at G = 10 with Rf = 200 Ω). Its input stage features asymmetric impedance: 518 kΩ noninverting, 71 Ω inverting, requiring careful layout to minimize imbalance-induced distortion.
It operates across ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V supply rails, with quiescent current ranging 6.3–12 mA depending on voltage and temperature. The device achieves < 0.3 dB peaking in unity-gain configuration and maintains 0.1-dB flatness to 120 MHz (G = 2, ±15 V), supporting wideband linear amplification without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unity-gain bandwidth | 300 MHz - enables stable high-frequency closed-loop operation without external compensation |
| Slew rate | 7000 V/μs at ±15 V - supports full-scale 20-V step response in <1 ns with minimal slewing error |
| 3rd harmonic distortion | –81 dBc @ 10 MHz, G = 2, RL = 150 Ω - meets broadcast video and DSL spectral purity requirements |
| Output current | ±145 mA into 50 Ω - drives terminated twisted-pair lines and capacitive loads without external buffers |
| Supply range | ±5 V to ±15 V - compatible with industrial, test equipment, and legacy analog signal chains |
| Differential gain/phase | 0.02% / 0.01° (NTSC/PAL) - preserves color fidelity in composite video distribution |
| Input voltage noise | 2.6 nV/√Hz - low enough to avoid degrading SNR in 12–14-bit ADC front ends |
Pinout & Package
The THS3061DGNR is housed in an 8-pin MSOP package with exposed PowerPAD™ thermal pad (DGN), requiring solder connection to a PCB copper plane for thermal management per TI SLMA002 guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NC) | No internal connection | Must remain unconnected; no routing or grounding required |
| 2 (VIN−) | Inverting input | Low-impedance node (71 Ω); sensitive to parasitic capacitance - requires short, guarded trace |
| 3 (VIN+) | Noninverting input | High-impedance node (518 kΩ); matches typical source impedances in line-driver applications |
| 4 (VS−) | Negative supply rail | Return path for internal bias and output stage; must be low-inductance with local 0.1 µF + 10 µF decoupling |
| 5 (NC) | No internal connection | Must remain unconnected; no routing or grounding required |
| 6 (VS+) | Positive supply rail | Primary power input; connects to exposed PowerPAD™ for thermal conduction |
| 7 (VOUT) | Amplifier output | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±145 mA; requires direct routing to load with controlled impedance |
| 8 (NC) | No internal connection | Must remain unconnected; no routing or grounding required |
Key Features

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS3061DR | Same die in SOIC-8 (D) package; higher θJA (97.5°C/W) limits max power dissipation to 410 mW at TA = +85°C | Preferred for prototyping or low-power designs where thermal budget allows larger footprint | Select THS3061DR when board space permits SOIC and thermal load is ≤400 mW |
| OPA691 | 350 mA output drive, lower slew rate (1100 V/μs), wider supply range (±5 V to ±12 V), no PowerPAD™ | Better suited for high-current, moderate-bandwidth applications (e.g., laser diode drivers) where distortion < –70 dBc suffices | Choose OPA691 only when ≥300 mA output current is mandatory and bandwidth ≤200 MHz is acceptable |
Compared with THS3061DR and OPA691, the THS3061DGNR uniquely balances ultra-high slew rate (7000 V/μs), low distortion (–81 dBc), and thermally robust MSOP-PowerPAD packaging - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-fidelity line-driving applications demanding sustained 1.7 W dissipation.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating voltage for THS3061DGNR?
The THS3061DGNR has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of ±16.5 V. For reliable long-term operation, TI specifies a maximum junction temperature of +125°C under continuous conditions. At ±15 V supplies, the device draws up to 12 mA per channel and dissipates ~1.7 W in the MSOP-PowerPAD package - requiring adequate PCB copper area per SLMA002 to maintain TJ ≤ +125°C. Exceeding ±16.5 V risks permanent damage.
Does THS3061DGNR require external compensation components?
No, the THS3061DGNR is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and exhibits <0.3 dB peaking in G = 1 configuration. Its current-feedback architecture means bandwidth is set by the external feedback resistor (Rf), not by compensation capacitors. Recommended Rf values are 750 Ω (G = 1), 560 Ω (G = 2), and 357 Ω (G = 5) at ±15 V - all yielding stable, predictable responses without added components.
Can THS3061DGNR drive a 150-Ω video load while maintaining NTSC/PAL specifications?
Yes, the THS3061DGNR delivers 0.02% differential gain error and 0.01° differential phase error when driving a 150-Ω load at G = 2, fully compliant with NTSC and PAL broadcast video standards. These values are measured under standard conditions (±15 V supplies, RL = 150 Ω) and remain stable across temperature - confirming suitability for professional video line drivers and distribution amplifiers.
How does the PowerPAD™ thermal pad on THS3061DGNR affect PCB layout?
The exposed PowerPAD™ on the THS3061DGNR's underside must be soldered to a dedicated thermal copper plane on the PCB to achieve its rated θJA of 58.4°C/W. TI recommends using ≥4 thermal vias (0.3-mm diameter) connecting the pad to inner-layer ground planes. Failure to connect the PowerPAD™ results in excessive junction temperature - potentially exceeding +150°C and causing parametric drift or failure. Refer to TI technical brief SLMA002 for verified layout patterns.
Is THS3061DGNR suitable for repetitive high-slew-rate sine-wave applications?
No - TI explicitly advises against using THS3061DGNR for repetitive signals exceeding 900 V/μs (e.g., high-amplitude, high-frequency sine waves), due to excessive supply current draw and risk of thermal overstress. For such applications, TI recommends the THS3091 or THS3095, which are rated for higher continuous slew rates. THS3061DGNR is optimized for pulsed, large-signal applications with ≥20 ns inter-pulse delay.
