Product details
Overview
THS4041IDRG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for high-speed, unity-gain-stable operation with full capacitive load drive capability (up to 1000 pF). It delivers 165 MHz small-signal bandwidth (±15 V, CL = 0 pF), 400 V/µs slew rate, and drives ±100 mA into 20 Ω - making it suitable for video line driving, ADC buffering, and high-fidelity signal conditioning in industrial imaging and test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the THS4041IDRG4 datasheet, THS4041IDRG4 pinout, THS4041IDRG4 application, or THS4041IDRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its C-stable architecture for direct capacitive load interface, low 0.01% differential gain/0.01° differential phase error in NTSC video, ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual-supply flexibility, and SOIC-8 PowerPAD™ thermal performance.
Technical Context
The THS4041IDRG4 employs a dielectrically isolated complementary bipolar process enabling GHz fT transistors, resulting in wide bandwidth, fast settling (120 ns to 0.1%), and low distortion (−75 dBc THD at 1 MHz, RL = 150 Ω). Its internal C-stable compensation dynamically adjusts dominant-pole response based on detected output capacitance, preserving stability without external components.
This architecture supports both inverting and noninverting configurations at all gains while maintaining phase margin >45° across CL = 0–1000 pF. The device features dedicated NULL pins (1 & 8) for offset nulling and operates over −40°C to +85°C, validated for industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (−3 dB) | 165 MHz at ±15 V, CL = 0 pF - enables baseband video and high-speed data acquisition up to ~100 MSPS. |
| Slew rate | 400 V/µs at ±15 V - supports full-scale 20-V step in <60 ns without slewing distortion. |
| THD @ 1 MHz | −75 dBc (RL = 150 Ω), −89 dBc (RL = 1 kΩ) - preserves signal fidelity in precision analog front-ends. |
| Output drive | ±100 mA into 20 Ω (typ) - directly drives coaxial cables, multiple 150-Ω video loads, or low-Z ADC inputs. |
| Supply range | ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual supply - accommodates legacy ±5 V, ±12 V, and ±15 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Differential gain/phase | 0.01% / 0.01° (NTSC, ±15 V) - meets broadcast-grade video specification without external peaking networks. |
| Input voltage noise | 14 nV/√Hz at 10 kHz - low-noise performance critical for sensor amplification prior to high-resolution ADCs. |
Pinout & Package
THS4041IDRG4 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™), designated D package per TI documentation. The thermal pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 167°C/W, θJC = 38.3°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NULL | Offset null adjustment terminal; connect potentiometer wiper to VCC− for fine input offset correction. |
| 2 | IN− | Inverting input; high-impedance node (1 MΩ || 1.5 pF) for feedback network connection. |
| 3 | IN+ | Noninverting input; matched to IN− for common-mode rejection (CMRR ≥ 70 dB). |
| 4 | VCC− | Negative supply rail; must be decoupled with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
| 5 | NULL | Second offset null terminal; connect opposite end of potentiometer to VCC− (see Fig. 66). |
| 6 | OUT | Amplified output; capable of ±100 mA sink/source into 20 Ω with <1% overshoot at CL ≤ 100 pF. |
| 7 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling for high-frequency stability. |
| 8 | NC | No internal connection; electrically isolated - no routing or grounding required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| C-stable capacitive load drive | Guaranteed stability with CL = 0–1000 pF without external compensation - eliminates need for isolation resistors in most video applications. |
| Unity-gain stable | Operates robustly at G = +1 or G = −1 with full bandwidth and minimal peaking - simplifies design of buffer and inverter stages. |
| High output current | Delivers ±100 mA into 20 Ω load - enables direct driving of 75-Ω transmission lines and multi-load video distribution. |
| Low video distortion | 0.01% differential gain and 0.01° differential phase error (NTSC, ±15 V) - meets SMPTE 253M broadcast compliance thresholds. |
| Industrial temperature range | Specified over −40°C to +85°C (I-suffix) - qualified for use in embedded vision, automated test, and harsh-environment instrumentation. |
| Offset null capability | Pins 1 and 8 support external potentiometer-based VOS trimming - reduces system-level calibration burden in precision DC-coupled paths. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4031CD | Lower 100 MHz bandwidth, lower input voltage noise (9 nV/√Hz), higher input bias current (10 µA typ). | Better suited for low-noise, moderate-speed applications where power consumption is constrained; not rated for >1000 pF loads. | Select THS4031CD when noise dominates over speed and capacitive load drive is ≤100 pF. |
| THS4081ID | 175 MHz bandwidth, lower quiescent current (5.5 mA vs. 9.5 mA), reduced output drive (±60 mA), same I-temp range. | Optimized for battery-powered portable test gear; lacks C-stable architecture - requires external isolation resistor for CL > 100 pF. | Select THS4081ID only when power efficiency is prioritized and capacitive load is known to be <100 pF. |
Compared with THS4031CD and THS4081ID, THS4041IDRG4 uniquely combines guaranteed stability into 1000 pF, highest output current, and broadcast-grade video linearity - making it the only choice for unbuffered video distribution and high-current, high-capacitance interface applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the THS4041IDRG4 can drive while remaining stable?
The THS4041IDRG4 is specified to remain stable with capacitive loads up to 1000 pF without external compensation. This is enabled by its internal C-stable architecture, which senses output capacitance and adjusts compensation dynamically. Stability is verified across the full −40°C to +85°C temperature range and ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V supply range. For loads exceeding 1000 pF, an external series isolation resistor (≥20 Ω) is recommended.
Does the THS4041IDRG4 require external components for offset nulling?
Yes - the THS4041IDRG4 provides dedicated NULL pins (1 and 8) for external offset nulling. A 10-kΩ potentiometer is connected between these pins, with its wiper tied to VCC−, as shown in Figure 66 of the datasheet. This configuration allows adjustment of input offset voltage down to <1 mV. No nulling is required for typical applications, as VOS is specified at 2.5–10 mV (typ/max) at 25°C.
Can the THS4041IDRG4 operate from a single supply?
Yes - the THS4041IDRG4 supports single-supply operation from 9 V to 33 V (VCC = VCC+ − VCC−). When used in single-supply mode, the input common-mode range extends to within 1.2 V of the negative rail and 1.7 V below the positive rail (e.g., VICR = 1.2 V to 13.3 V at VCC = 15 V). Output swing is rail-to-rail limited by load impedance and supply voltage.
What is the thermal performance of the THS4041IDRG4 in SOIC-8 PowerPAD™ package?
The THS4041IDRG4 in the D package (SOIC-8 with PowerPAD™) has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 167°C/W under JEDEC Low-K board conditions, and 95°C/W under JEDEC High-K conditions. With the thermal pad soldered to a 3 in × 3 in copper plane, power dissipation is rated at 740 mW at TA = 25°C. Proper thermal land design is essential to maintain TJ < 150°C under continuous 100-mA output loading.
How does the THS4041IDRG4 compare to the dual-channel THS4042 in terms of video performance?
The THS4041IDRG4 and THS4042 share identical electrical specifications including differential gain (0.01%), differential phase (0.01°), bandwidth, slew rate, and distortion performance. The THS4042 adds channel-to-channel crosstalk of −64 dB at 1 MHz but does not improve single-channel video metrics. Therefore, THS4041IDRG4 delivers identical broadcast-grade video fidelity in single-channel applications while offering lower cost and smaller PCB footprint than the dual variant.
