Product details
Overview
THS4051IDRG4 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 (0.1%), ±100 mA output drive, and 0.01% differential gain / 0.01° differential phase error at NTSC video frequencies - enabling precision analog front-end amplification in broadcast-grade SD/HD video routing and reconstruction circuits.
For engineers reviewing the THS4051IDRG4 datasheet, THS4051IDRG4 pinout, THS4051IDRG4 application, or THS4051IDRG4 equivalent, this device is selected for demanding AC-coupled gain stages requiring wide 0.1-dB flatness (30 MHz), ultra-low harmonic distortion (−82 dBc @ 1 MHz, RL = 150 Ω), stable operation at all gains, and dual-supply flexibility (±4.5 V to ±16.5 V).
Technical Context
The THS4051IDRG4 employs a dielectrically isolated complementary bipolar process with GHz-class fT transistors, enabling its voltage-feedback architecture to achieve simultaneous high bandwidth, fast settling, and low distortion without external compensation. Its internal nulling pins (Pin 1 and Pin 8) support precise DC offset trimming in precision video chains.
It operates stably in both inverting and non-inverting configurations across all closed-loop gains, with input common-mode range extending to ±14.3 V (VCC = ±15 V) and output swing up to ±13.6 V into 1 kΩ - making it suitable for high-voltage, high-fidelity analog signal paths where rail-to-rail operation is not required but headroom and linearity are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (−3 dB) | 70 MHz at G = 1, ±15 V supply - supports full-bandwidth amplification of HD video baseband signals without attenuation. |
| Slew rate | 240 V/µs at ±15 V - ensures faithful reproduction of fast transient edges in composite video and pulse-based imaging waveforms. |
| Settling time (0.1%) | 60 ns for 5-V step - enables accurate multi-level video DAC output reconstruction and fast data acquisition sampling. |
| Differential gain/phase | 0.01% / 0.01° at NTSC, ±15 V - meets SMPTE 170M broadcast video fidelity requirements for color accuracy. |
| Total harmonic distortion | −82 dBc @ 1 MHz, RL = 150 Ω - minimizes spurious content in RF-adjacent analog signal chains and IF amplifiers. |
| Supply voltage range | ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual supply - allows integration into legacy ±5 V, ±12 V, and ±15 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Output current (typ) | 100 mA per channel - drives multiple 75-Ω video loads or low-impedance ADC inputs directly. |
Pinout & Package
THS4051IDRG4 is packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (D package) with exposed pad thermal enhancement. The device uses standard op-amp pinout alignment compatible with industry layout practices.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NULL | Offset null adjustment terminal (connects to external trim potentiometer wiper for DC calibration). |
| 2 | IN− | Inverting input - accepts feedback network and sets closed-loop gain in inverting configuration. |
| 3 | IN+ | Non-inverting input - reference node for single-ended or differential input signal injection. |
| 4 | VCC− | Negative supply rail - must be decoupled locally with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to ground. |
| 5 | OUT | Amplified output - capable of sourcing/sinking ±100 mA into resistive or capacitive loads. |
| 6 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - requires local decoupling; power supply rejection ratio exceeds 70 dB up to 1 MHz. |
| 7 | NC | No internal connection - left unconnected; no electrical function or thermal role. |
| 8 | NULL | Second offset null terminal - completes external trim circuit with Pin 1 for balanced nulling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Stable at all gains | Internally compensated for unity-gain and higher closed-loop configurations - eliminates need for external compensation networks in video gain blocks. |
| 0.1-dB flatness to 30 MHz | Preserves amplitude integrity across entire SD/HD video baseband spectrum (DC–30 MHz), critical for chroma/luma separation fidelity. |
| Low distortion at 1 MHz | −82 dBc THD into 150 Ω - reduces intermodulation artifacts in multi-tone communication IF stages and broadband test equipment. |
| High output drive | 100 mA continuous output current - enables direct driving of coaxial cables, multiple video receivers, or low-RIN ADC buffers without external boost stages. |
| Wide supply range | Operates from ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V - supports reuse across legacy industrial, broadcast, and instrumentation platforms with varying rail voltages. |

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, lower noise (9 nV/√Hz), but only 50 mA output drive and no NULL pins. | Better suited for low-noise preamplification; unsuitable for multi-load video distribution due to limited drive capability. | Select THS4031IDR when input-referred noise dominates system SNR and load current ≤50 mA. |
| THS4081IDR | 175 MHz bandwidth, 1.8 mA supply current (vs. 8.5 mA), but reduced output drive (60 mA) and higher THD (−72 dBc @ 1 MHz). | Optimized for portable/battery-powered instruments; insufficient for broadcast video fidelity requirements. | Choose THS4081IDR only when bandwidth >100 MHz is mandatory and power budget is constrained below 2 mA per channel. |
Compared with THS4031IDR and THS4081IDR, the THS4051IDRG4 uniquely balances high output drive (100 mA), broadcast-grade video linearity (0.01% DG/DP), and robust stability across all gains - making it the preferred choice for fixed-power, multi-load, high-fidelity analog signal routing where distortion and drive strength are primary constraints.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the THS4051IDRG4?
The THS4051IDRG4 is rated for industrial operation from −40°C to +85°C (I-suffix grade). This range is validated across all key specifications including bandwidth, slew rate, and differential gain/phase error - ensuring consistent performance in broadcast equipment racks, medical imaging enclosures, and factory-floor test systems without derating.
Does the THS4051IDRG4 require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the THS4051IDRG4 is internally compensated and remains stable at unity gain and all higher closed-loop gains in both inverting and non-inverting configurations. This eliminates the need for external compensation capacitors or feedback network adjustments - simplifying PCB layout and reducing bill-of-materials cost in video gain blocks and instrumentation amplifiers.
Can the THS4051IDRG4 drive a 75-Ω video load directly?
Yes, the THS4051IDRG4 delivers ±100 mA output current and maintains specified distortion and settling performance into 75-Ω loads. When driving 75-Ω coaxial cables, use a series 20-Ω resistor at the output (per TI application guidance) to prevent ringing caused by capacitive loading - preserving signal integrity in SDI and analog video transmission paths.
What is the purpose of Pins 1 and 8 (NULL) on the THS4051IDRG4?
Pins 1 and 8 are offset null terminals used to minimize input offset voltage via an external 10-kΩ potentiometer connected between them, with the wiper grounded. This feature enables sub-millivolt DC calibration in precision video reconstruction and medical sensor amplification - critical for eliminating static color shifts or baseline drift in long-integration imaging systems.
How does the THS4051IDRG4 compare to the THS4051CDRG4 in terms of performance?
The THS4051IDRG4 and THS4051CDRG4 share identical AC and DC specifications except for temperature range: the 'I' grade operates from −40°C to +85°C, while the 'C' grade is limited to 0°C to +70°C. All key parameters - 70 MHz bandwidth, 240 V/µs slew rate, 0.01% differential gain, and −82 dBc THD - are guaranteed across their respective full temperature ranges per TI's datasheet test conditions.
