Product details
Overview
THS4051IDR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-speed voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for professional video, imaging, and broadband signal conditioning. It delivers 70 MHz small-signal bandwidth (G = 1), 240 V/µs slew rate, 60 ns settling time (0.1%), ±100 mA output drive, and 0.01% differential gain / 0.01° differential phase error at ±15 V supply - enabling precision analog front-ends in broadcast-grade video routing and high-fidelity test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the THS4051IDR datasheet, THS4051IDR pinout, THS4051IDR application, or THS4051IDR equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, SOIC-8 package layout, video-optimized distortion performance, thermal design guidance, and validated alternatives for signal-chain upgrades requiring stable gain, low group delay, and wide dynamic range across ±4.5 V to ±15 V supplies.
Technical Context
The THS4051IDR employs a dielectrically isolated complementary bipolar process with multi-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 trade-off, requiring external series resistance (>20 Ω) when driving >10 pF capacitive loads to maintain ≥45° phase margin.
It features dual null pins (Pin 1 and Pin 8) for offset trimming, rail-to-rail input common-mode range (±13.8 V at ±15 V supply), and robust 150 mA short-circuit current capability. Power supply rejection exceeds 70 dB up to 1 MHz, and CMRR remains ≥70 dB over full temperature range (−40°C to +85°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (−3 dB) | 70 MHz at G = 1, ±15 V - supports baseband video (NTSC/PAL) and IF signal amplification without roll-off |
| Slew rate | 240 V/µs at ±15 V - enables clean 20-Vpp transient response within 83 ns, critical for pulse fidelity |
| Settling time (0.1%) | 60 ns for 5-V step - ensures sub-pixel timing accuracy in high-resolution imaging digitization |
| Total harmonic distortion | −82 dBc at 1 MHz, RL = 150 Ω - meets SMPTE 253M broadcast linearity requirements |
| Differential gain/phase | 0.01% / 0.01° at NTSC, ±15 V - preserves color fidelity in RGB/YUV component video paths |
| Supply voltage range | ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V - supports legacy ±5 V, standard ±12 V, and high-headroom ±15 V systems |
| Output current (continuous) | ±100 mA typical - drives 150 Ω video lines, multiple ADC inputs, or active filters without gain compression |
Pinout & Package
THS4051IDR is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package with exposed pad (PowerPAD™ option not applicable to D package per datasheet). Pin 1 and Pin 8 are dedicated null terminals for external offset adjustment; Pin 4 is VCC− (negative supply); Pin 7 is VCC+ (positive supply).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NULL | Offset null input - connects to potentiometer wiper for DC offset calibration |
| 2 | IN− | Inverting input - accepts feedback network for precise gain control and stability |
| 3 | IN+ | Non-inverting input - high-impedance node (1 MΩ) for sensor or reference signal injection |
| 4 | VCC− | Negative supply rail - must be decoupled with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection - left unconnected; no PCB trace required |
| 6 | OUT | Amplified output - capable of ±3.5 V swing into 150 Ω at ±5 V supply |
| 7 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - requires local 0.1 µF + 4.7 µF bulk decoupling |
| 8 | NULL | Offset null output - completes trim circuit with Pin 1 for symmetrical offset correction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 70-MHz bandwidth with unity-gain stability | Enables direct replacement of legacy video op-amps (e.g., LM6361) without loop compensation redesign |
| 0.01% differential gain error | Eliminates hue shift in RGB video distribution over long coaxial runs at 1080p60 |
| 240 V/µs slew rate | Supports >100 MHz small-signal edge rates while maintaining <0.1% overshoot in pulse applications |
| ±100 mA output drive | Drives two 75 Ω video loads simultaneously or one 150 Ω load with 20 dB headroom |
| Null pins for offset trimming | Allows <2 mV residual offset after calibration - critical for DC-coupled CCD/TDI sensor interfaces |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4031IDR | 100 MHz bandwidth, 10 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 12 mA supply current - higher speed but lower output drive (±60 mA) | Better suited for low-noise preamplification where bandwidth >70 MHz is mandatory and load ≤1 kΩ | Select THS4031IDR when SNR >85 dB is required and output current demand is <60 mA |
| OPA695IDBVR | 1.7 GHz bandwidth, 1200 V/µs slew rate, 125 mA output - significantly faster but requires careful layout and external compensation | Targeted at RF/IF gain blocks above 100 MHz; not unity-gain stable without feedback network modification | Choose OPA695IDBVR only for >500 MHz small-signal applications with expert high-frequency design support |
Compared with THS4051IDR, THS4031IDR trades output drive for lower noise and higher bandwidth, making it preferable in low-level signal chains; OPA695IDBVR offers extreme speed but demands rigorous stability analysis and adds layout complexity - neither is pin-compatible, and both require schematic and layout revision.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for THS4051IDR?
The THS4051IDR is rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C (I-suffix grade), validated across all key parameters including bandwidth, distortion, and output swing. This range supports deployment in industrial enclosures, outdoor broadcast gear, and medical devices without derating - confirmed by TI's full-range electrical characteristics tables on pages 6–8 of SLOS238D.
Does THS4051IDR require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No - the THS4051IDR is internally compensated for unity-gain stability in both inverting and non-inverting configurations, as explicitly stated in the device description and functional specifications. No external compensation components are needed for G ≥ 1, simplifying layout and reducing bill-of-materials cost compared to decompensated high-speed op-amps.
Can THS4051IDR drive a 75-Ω video load directly?
Yes - THS4051IDR delivers ±100 mA continuous output current and maintains 0.01% differential gain into 150 Ω (dual 75 Ω in parallel), meeting SMPTE 253M video line driver requirements. For single 75 Ω loads, use series termination (e.g., 22 Ω) at the output to match impedance and suppress reflections, as recommended in TI's application notes.
What is the purpose of Pins 1 and 8 (NULL) on THS4051IDR?
Pins 1 and 8 are dedicated offset null terminals. Connecting a 10-kΩ potentiometer between them, with its wiper grounded, allows precise adjustment of input offset voltage to <2 mV - essential for DC-coupled applications like CCD sensor interfaces or precision instrumentation where residual offset impacts measurement accuracy.
How does THS4051IDR perform in single-supply operation?
THS4051IDR supports single-supply operation from 9 V to 33 V (e.g., +24 V with ground reference). Input common-mode range extends to within 1.2 V of rails, and output swing reaches ±3.5 V into 150 Ω at +5 V supply. Full performance is maintained only when VCM and VOUT remain within specified limits - refer to Table 1 (page 5) for exact values at 9 V, 12 V, and 24 V.
