Product details
Overview
THS4051CDR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-speed voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for professional video, imaging, and communication signal conditioning. It delivers 70 MHz small-signal bandwidth (G = 1), 240 V/µs slew rate, 60 ns settling time to 0.1%, ±15 V dual-supply operation, and 0.01% differential gain error - enabling precision analog signal amplification in broadcast-grade video distribution systems.
For engineers reviewing the THS4051CDR datasheet, THS4051CDR pinout, THS4051CDR application, or THS4051CDR equivalent, this device is selected for high-fidelity analog signal paths requiring wide bandwidth, low distortion (−82 dBc at 1 MHz), stable unity-gain operation, and robust 100 mA output drive into 150 Ω loads.
Technical Context
The THS4051CDR employs a dielectrically isolated complementary bipolar process with GHz fT transistors, enabling voltage-feedback architecture with inherently wide bandwidth and fast transient response. Its internal compensation ensures stability across all closed-loop gains in both inverting and non-inverting configurations without external compensation.
It features rail-to-rail input common-mode range (±14.3 V at ±15 V supply), 13 Ω open-loop output impedance, and low input capacitance (1.5 pF) - supporting high-frequency feedback networks and minimizing phase shift in active filter or driver stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (−3 dB) | 70 MHz at G = 1, ±15 V - supports full HD baseband video (30 MHz 0.1-dB flatness) without attenuation. |
| Slew rate | 240 V/µs at ±15 V - enables clean 20-Vpp output swings at >3 MHz without slewing distortion. |
| Settling time (0.1%) | 60 ns for 5-V step - meets timing-critical sampling and multiplexing requirements in imaging ADC drivers. |
| Total harmonic distortion | −82 dBc at 1 MHz, RL = 150 Ω - preserves signal fidelity in RF IF stages and composite video amplifiers. |
| Output current (continuous) | 100 mA typ at ±15 V - drives multiple 75-Ω video lines or low-impedance cables without gain compression. |
| Supply voltage range | ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual supply - accommodates legacy ±5 V, ±12 V, and ±15 V system rails. |
| Differential gain/phase error | 0.01% / 0.01° at NTSC, ±15 V - meets SMPTE RP-168 broadcast video linearity standards. |
Pinout & Package
THS4051CDR is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package) with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™). This thermally enhanced plastic small-outline IC supports high-power dissipation (740 mW at TA = 25°C) and improved junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA = 167°C/W).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NULL | No internal connection - unused terminal; must be left floating or tied to ground per layout best practice. |
| 2 | IN− | Inverting input - accepts feedback network; high-impedance node (1 MΩ) with 1.5 pF capacitance. |
| 3 | IN+ | Non-inverting input - reference input node; common-mode range extends to ±14.3 V at ±15 V supply. |
| 4 | VCC− | Negative supply rail - connects to −VCC; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor. |
| 5 | OUT | Amplified output - delivers up to ±13.6 V swing into 1 kΩ and 100 mA into 20 Ω load. |
| 6 | NC | No internal connection - pin 6 is unconnected in D-package variant; not bonded internally. |
| 7 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - connects to +VCC; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor. |
| 8 | NULL | No internal connection - unused terminal; electrically isolated from die. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4031CDR | 100 MHz bandwidth, 10 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 6.5 mA supply current - higher speed but lower output drive (60 mA). | Better suited for low-noise preamp stages than video line driving; limited 0.1-dB flatness (12 MHz). | Select THS4031CDR when priority is input-referred noise over output current capability. |
| THS4081CDR | 175 MHz bandwidth, 12.5 mA supply current, 75 mA output drive - higher speed but reduced video linearity (0.03% DG). | Optimized for low-power portable instrumentation; differential phase error rises to 0.03° at ±5 V. | Choose THS4081CDR only if bandwidth >100 MHz is mandatory and video fidelity is secondary. |
Compared with THS4031CDR and THS4081CDR, the THS4051CDR uniquely balances 70 MHz bandwidth, 100 mA output drive, and broadcast-grade 0.01% differential gain - making it the preferred choice for video distribution and high-current IF amplification where signal integrity and load drive are co-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe supply voltage for THS4051CDR?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for THS4051CDR is ±16.5 V. Operation beyond this rating risks permanent damage. Recommended operating range is ±4.5 V to ±16 V per the datasheet. At ±15 V, THS4051CDR achieves full specified performance including 70 MHz bandwidth and 240 V/µs slew rate. Always use local 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitors on both VCC+ and VCC− pins.
Can THS4051CDR drive a 75-Ω video load directly?
Yes, THS4051CDR can drive a 75-Ω video load directly with minimal degradation. At ±15 V supply, it delivers ±3.5 V output swing into 75 Ω (per RL = 150 Ω test condition scaling), and maintains 0.01% differential gain error critical for NTSC video. For multi-load distribution, its 100 mA output current supports up to four parallel 75-Ω terminations without gain collapse or thermal shutdown.
Is THS4051CDR unity-gain stable?
Yes, THS4051CDR is internally compensated for unity-gain stability in both inverting and non-inverting configurations. No external compensation components are required. This is confirmed in the datasheet description stating "stable at all gains" and verified by the unity-gain bandwidth of 70 MHz. Stability holds across the full temperature range (0°C to 70°C for C-suffix) and supply range (±4.5 V to ±16 V).
What is the input common-mode voltage range of THS4051CDR?
At ±15 V supply, THS4051CDR has a common-mode input voltage range of ±13.8 V to ±14.3 V - extending within 1.2 V of either rail. At ±5 V supply, the range is ±3.8 V to ±4.3 V. This rail-to-rail input capability allows direct interfacing with DAC outputs, sensor bridges, and other mid-rail biased sources without level-shifting circuitry.
Does THS4051CDR require external nulling or offset trimming?
No, THS4051CDR does not require external nulling or offset trimming. Its input offset voltage is specified at 2.5–10 mV (typ/max at 25°C), and pins 1 and 8 are labeled NULL (no internal connection), confirming no offset adjustment terminals. For applications requiring sub-mV offset, external calibration or post-amplifier correction is recommended - the device itself provides no trim capability.
