Product details
Overview
THS3091DDAG3 from Texas Instruments is a high-voltage, current-feedback operational amplifier optimized for large-signal, high-fidelity output drive. It delivers ±310 mA output current, 6000 V/μs slew rate (G = 5, VO = 20 VPP), and 305 MHz small-signal bandwidth (G = 2, RL = 100 Ω) while operating from ±5 V to ±16 V supplies. It is used in pin drivers, power-FET drivers, and high-voltage arbitrary waveform generators.
For engineers reviewing the THS3091DDAG3 datasheet, THS3091DDAG3 pinout, THS3091DDAG3 application, or THS3091DDAG3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its current-feedback architecture, low 1.1-nV/√Hz voltage noise, –84-dBc HD2 at 10 MHz (RL = 1 kΩ), thermal performance in SO PowerPAD™ package, and absence of power-down functionality compared to THS3095.
Technical Context
The THS3091DDAG3 implements a current-feedback op-amp topology with transimpedance gain stage, enabling wide bandwidth independent of closed-loop gain. Its input stage uses matched bipolar transistors for low input bias current drift (±20 nA/°C noninverting, ±80 nA/°C inverting) and high common-mode rejection (78 dB typ at ±10 V).
It features a robust output stage capable of sourcing/sinking ±310 mA into 40 Ω loads while maintaining <18.5 ns settling time to 0.01% (2-VPP step). The device lacks a power-down pin-unlike THS3095-and operates continuously with 9.5 mA quiescent current at ±15 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | ±5 V to ±16 V - supports high-voltage signal generation without rail-to-rail limitation |
| Slew Rate | 6000 V/μs (G = 5, VO = 20 VPP) - enables fast large-signal transitions in pulse and waveform applications |
| Small-Signal Bandwidth | 305 MHz (G = 2, RL = 100 Ω) - maintains fidelity up to UHF frequencies in current-feedback configuration |
| Output Current Drive | ±310 mA - drives low-impedance loads including FET gates and piezo elements directly |
| Harmonic Distortion | –84 dBc HD2 / –99 dBc HD3 at 10 MHz, RL = 1 kΩ - preserves spectral purity in precision waveform synthesis |
| Voltage Noise Density | 1.1 nV/√Hz - minimizes contribution to system noise floor in high-gain, wideband stages |
| Input Current Noise | 15 pA/√Hz (noninverting), 14 pA/√Hz (inverting) - critical for high-source-impedance sensor interfaces |
Pinout & Package
THS3091DDAG3 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC PowerPAD™ (DDA) package with exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation. The package supports surface-mount assembly and requires PCB thermal vias under the pad for optimal junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB = 32.6 °C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 8 | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or grounded per layout best practices |
| 2 | Inverting Input (VIN−) | Current-summing node for feedback path; low impedance (30 Ω) enables stable CFB compensation |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (VIN+) | High-impedance input (0.7 MΩ) with 2.4 pF capacitance; sets reference point for differential operation |
| 4 | Negative Supply (VS−) | Return path for internal bias and output stage; requires low-ESR decoupling near pin |
| 6 | Output (VOUT) | Capable of ±310 mA drive into 40 Ω; output impedance 0.06 Ω at 1 MHz ensures minimal gain error |
| 7 | Positive Supply (VS+) | Primary power rail; supports up to ±16 V; total supply range 32 V enables high-voltage swing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current-feedback architecture | Enables constant bandwidth across gains (e.g., 305 MHz at G = 2, 205 MHz at G = 5), unlike voltage-feedback op-amps |
| High output current capability | ±310 mA drive allows direct interfacing with power-FET gates and capacitive piezo loads without external buffers |
| Low distortion at high frequency | –84 dBc HD2 at 10 MHz ensures clean spectral output in arbitrary waveform generator front-ends |
| Wide supply range | ±5 V to ±16 V operation supports both low-power test equipment and industrial high-voltage systems |
| Thermally enhanced PowerPAD™ | SOIC-DDA package with exposed die paddle reduces RθJA to 58.4 °C/W, enabling sustained high-output operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage, high-speed amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS3095DDAG3 | Includes PD pin and REF input; quiescent current drops from 9.5 mA to 500 μA in power-down mode | Required where intermittent operation or standby power reduction is mandated (e.g., portable test gear) | Select THS3095DDAG3 only if power-down functionality is needed; THS3091DDAG3 has identical AC/DC specs otherwise |
| THS3491IRGTT | Higher 900-MHz bandwidth (G = 5), 8000-V/μs slew rate, ±420-mA output, but narrower ±6-V to ±16-V supply range | Better suited for >100-MHz RF signal paths or ultrafast pulse generation where THS3091DDAG3 bandwidth is limiting | Choose THS3491IRGTT when bandwidth >305 MHz is required; note higher 17.3-mA quiescent current and different package (QFN) |
Compared with THS3095DDAG3, THS3091DDAG3 offers identical dynamic performance without power management overhead; versus THS3491IRGTT, it trades bandwidth and slew for lower noise (1.1 vs 1.7 nV/√Hz) and broader supply flexibility (±5 V min).

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for THS3091DDAG3?
The THS3091DDAG3 supports dual-supply operation from ±5 V to ±16 V, with absolute maximum supply rating of ±16 V (32 V total). Exceeding ±16 V risks permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings. Operation at ±15 V is typical for achieving full 305 MHz bandwidth and ±310 mA output drive.
Does THS3091DDAG3 have a power-down feature?
No, THS3091DDAG3 does not include a power-down pin or circuitry. That functionality is exclusive to THS3095DDAG3, which adds PD and REF pins. THS3091DDAG3 operates continuously with 9.5 mA quiescent current at ±15 V and cannot be placed in low-power standby mode.
What package type is used for THS3091DDAG3?
THS3091DDAG3 uses the 8-pin SOIC PowerPAD™ (DDA) package, featuring an exposed thermal pad on the underside for enhanced heat dissipation. This differs from the HVSSOP (DGN) variant offered for THS3091, and is not compatible with THS3095's DDA-only offering.
What is the small-signal bandwidth of THS3091DDAG3 at G = 2?
At G = 2, RL = 100 Ω, and VS = ±15 V, the THS3091DDAG3 delivers a small-signal bandwidth of 305 MHz (–3 dB). This value is measured with RF = 1.21 kΩ and VO = 200 mVPP, and reflects the current-feedback architecture's gain-bandwidth independence.
How does THS3091DDAG3 handle capacitive loads?
THS3091DDAG3 requires external isolation resistor (RISO) for stability with capacitive loads. For example, with CL = 47 pF, a 22.1-Ω RISO is recommended; with CL = 100 pF, use 15.8 Ω. These values are derived from TI's Figure 7-8 and prevent peaking or oscillation in high-current drive scenarios.
