Product details
Overview
THS4051IDG4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-speed voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for video, imaging, and communication signal conditioning. It delivers 70 MHz small-signal bandwidth (G = 1), 240 V/µs slew rate, 60 ns settling time (0.1%), ±15 V dual-supply operation, and 100 mA output drive - enabling precision analog front-ends in broadcast-grade video routing and high-resolution ADC/DAC buffer stages.
For engineers reviewing the THS4051IDG4 datasheet, THS4051IDG4 pinout, THS4051IDG4 application, or THS4051IDG4 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package-specific pin mapping, real-world video and instrumentation use cases, and validated alternative options with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The THS4051IDG4 employs a dielectrically isolated complementary bipolar process with GHz fT transistors, enabling voltage-feedback architecture with unity-gain stability across inverting and non-inverting configurations. Its internal compensation targets maximum bandwidth/slew rate, requiring external series resistance (≥20 Ω) when driving >10 pF capacitive loads to maintain phase margin.
It achieves professional video performance via ultra-low distortion (−82 dBc THD at 1 MHz, RL = 150 Ω), 0.01% differential gain error, and 0.01° differential phase error under NTSC conditions - all specified over −40°C to +85°C operating range with ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V supply flexibility.
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 gain peaking. |
| Slew rate | 240 V/µs at ±15 V - enables clean 20-Vpp output steps at ≥10 MHz without slewing distortion. |
| Settling time (0.1%) | 60 ns for 5-V step - meets timing-critical sampling requirements in high-speed data acquisition systems. |
| Total harmonic distortion | −82 dBc at 1 MHz, RL = 150 Ω - preserves signal fidelity in RF IF-stages and spectrum analyzer front-ends. |
| Output current | 100 mA typical - drives multiple 75-Ω video lines or low-impedance ADC inputs without external buffers. |
| Supply voltage range | ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual supply - accommodates legacy ±5 V and modern ±12 V/±15 V system rails. |
| Operating temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial video encoders, medical imaging, and telecom infrastructure. |
Pinout & Package
THS4051IDG4 is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package) with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™). The package supports standard surface-mount reflow and provides enhanced thermal dissipation (θJA = 167°C/W on JEDEC Low-K board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NULL) | Offset null adjustment | Unused in most applications; left open or connected per offset trimming requirement. |
| 2 (IN−) | Inverting input | Differential input node; high-impedance (1 MΩ) with 1.5 pF capacitance - requires matched trace routing in high-frequency layouts. |
| 3 (IN+) | Non-inverting input | Differential input node; common-mode range extends to ±14.3 V at ±15 V supply - supports rail-to-rail input in high-voltage signal chains. |
| 4 (VCC−) | Negative supply rail | Connects to system ground or negative supply; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 5 mm. |
| 5 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Capable of ±13.6 V swing into 1 kΩ; series resistor (≥20 Ω) mandatory for >10 pF capacitive loads to prevent oscillation. |
| 6 (NC) | No internal connection | Not bonded; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling or EMI ingress. |
| 7 (VCC+) | Positive supply rail | Connects to system positive supply; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 5 mm. |
| 8 (NULL) | Offset null adjustment | Unused in most applications; left open or connected per offset trimming requirement. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4031ID | 100 MHz bandwidth, 100 V/µs slew rate, lower 14 nV/√Hz input voltage noise vs. THS4051IDG4's 14 nV/√Hz but higher 1.2 pA/√Hz current noise. | Better suited for low-noise preamplification of high-impedance sensors; less optimal for video due to reduced slew rate and differential phase (0.05°). | Select THS4031ID only when bandwidth >70 MHz is critical and video fidelity is secondary. |
| THS4081ID | 175 MHz bandwidth, 350 V/µs slew rate, but higher 18 nV/√Hz noise and 10.5 mA supply current vs. THS4051IDG4's 8.5 mA. | Targeted at ultra-high-speed ADC drivers and optical receiver TIA stages; not optimized for video linearity metrics. | Choose THS4081ID when full-power bandwidth >12 MHz is required and power budget allows +2 mA/channel. |
Compared with THS4051IDG4, THS4031ID trades video-grade linearity for wider bandwidth and lower voltage noise, while THS4081ID prioritizes raw speed and slew rate at the expense of power efficiency and differential phase accuracy - making THS4051IDG4 the optimal choice for broadcast video and mixed-signal instrumentation where fidelity and efficiency coexist.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the THS4051IDG4 can drive without oscillation?
The THS4051IDG4 is internally compensated for unity-gain stability but requires external isolation when driving >10 pF capacitive loads. A minimum 20 Ω series resistor between the OUT pin and the load maintains phase margin and prevents high-frequency ringing. This is confirmed in the "Driving a Capacitive Load" section of the SLOS238D datasheet and validated across −40°C to +85°C operation for THS4051IDG4.
Does the THS4051IDG4 support single-supply operation?
Yes, the THS4051IDG4 operates from a single supply of 9 V to 32 V (VCC+ to VCC−), enabling use in portable and industrial systems without dual-rail generation. Input common-mode range extends to within 1.2 V of each rail at ±15 V supply, and output swing reaches ±3.5 V into 150 Ω with 5 V supply - verified in the Recommended Operating Conditions and Electrical Characteristics tables of the official TI datasheet.
What is the guaranteed settling time specification for THS4051IDG4 over its full temperature range?
The THS4051IDG4 guarantees 60 ns settling time to 0.1% for a 5-V step at ±15 V supply and 2-V step at ±5 V supply, across its full −40°C to +85°C operating range. This is explicitly stated in the "Dynamic Performance" table under "Settling time to 0.1%" for THS405xI devices, confirming consistency for the I-suffix grade used in THS4051IDG4.
How does the THS4051IDG4 achieve 0.01% differential gain in video applications?
The THS4051IDG4 achieves 0.01% differential gain through precision bipolar transistor matching and low-distortion output stage design, verified under NTSC 40 IRE modulation with ±100 IRE ramp at ±15 V and ±5 V supplies. This performance is measured and guaranteed in the "Noise/Distortion Performance" section of the datasheet and applies directly to THS4051IDG4's SOIC-D package configuration.
Is the THS4051IDG4 pin-compatible with other THS405x variants like THS4051CD or THS4051IDGN?
Yes, THS4051IDG4 shares identical pinout and electrical functionality with THS4051CD (commercial temp) and THS4051IDGN (MSOP), as confirmed by the "THS4051 D, DGN, AND JG PACKAGES (TOP VIEW)" diagram in the datasheet. All three use the same 1–8 pin numbering and terminal assignments - including NULL, IN−, IN+, VCC−, OUT, NC, VCC+, and NULL - ensuring drop-in replacement across temperature grades and packages.
