Product details
Overview
THS4061CDR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for high-speed video, imaging, and communication signal conditioning. It delivers 180 MHz small-signal bandwidth (G = 1), 400 V/µs slew rate, 40 ns settling time to 0.1%, ±11.5 V output swing into 250 Ω at ±15 V supply, and 0.02% differential gain error - enabling precision analog front-end design in broadcast-quality SD/HD video line drivers.
For engineers reviewing the THS4061CDR datasheet, THS4061CDR pinout, THS4061CDR application, or THS4061CDR equivalent, this page provides verified circuit role, SOIC-8 package mapping, video-grade AC performance metrics, thermal derating data, and validated alternatives for professional video, test equipment, and high-fidelity analog signal path design.
Technical Context
The THS4061CDR employs a dielectrically isolated complementary bipolar process with GHz fT transistors, enabling wideband voltage-feedback architecture stable at all gains in both inverting and noninverting configurations. Its internal compensation targets unity-gain stability while preserving bandwidth and slew rate.
It features dual null pins (1 and 8) for external offset trimming, supports dual-supply (±4.5 V to ±16.5 V) or single-supply (9 V to 33 V) operation, and requires careful PCB layout - including local 0.1 µF ceramic + 6.8 µF tantalum decoupling per supply rail and avoidance of sockets - to maintain 180 MHz bandwidth and low distortion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (−3 dB) | 180 MHz at G = 1, ±15 V - enables baseband video and fast pulse amplification without roll-off |
| Slew rate | 400 V/µs at ±15 V - supports clean 5-V step response in ≤40 ns with minimal overshoot |
| Differential gain error | 0.02% at NTSC 40 IRE, G = 2, ±15 V - preserves color fidelity in composite video systems |
| Total harmonic distortion | −72 dBc at f = 1 MHz - ensures low spurious content in RF IF stages and ADC driver applications |
| Output drive current | 115 mA typical into 20 Ω - drives 75 Ω coaxial lines directly or multiple parallel loads |
| Supply range | ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual or 9 V to 33 V single - accommodates legacy ±15 V and modern low-voltage rails |
| Quiescent current | 7.8 mA per channel at ±15 V - balances speed and power in multi-amplifier video signal chains |
Pinout & Package
THS4061CDR is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint (5.3 mm × 6.2 mm, 1.27 mm pitch). Thermal derating begins above 25°C at 6 mW/°C; maximum power dissipation is 475 mW at 70°C ambient.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Null (Offset Adjust) | Connects to potentiometer wiper for manual input offset correction; referenced to VCC− |
| 2 | Inverting Input (IN−) | High-impedance node for feedback network connection; critical for stability with capacitive loads |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (IN+) | High-impedance signal input; requires shortest possible trace to minimize parasitic capacitance |
| 4 | VCC− | Negative supply rail; must be decoupled locally with 0.1 µF ceramic + 6.8 µF tantalum |
| 5 | NC | No internal connection; left unconnected per TI datasheet |
| 6 | Output (OUT) | Capable of ±11.5 V swing into 250 Ω; series resistor (≥20 Ω) required for >10 pF capacitive loads |
| 7 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail; identical decoupling requirement as VCC− |
| 8 | Null (Offset Adjust) | Paired with Pin 1 for external trim; tied to VCC− via potentiometer wiper |
Key Features

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, 150 V/µs slew rate, lower quiescent current (5.3 mA), higher input bias current (10 µA) | Better suited for low-power, medium-bandwidth applications where 180 MHz is unnecessary | Select THS4031CDR when power budget is constrained and video fidelity requirements are relaxed |
| OPA695IDBVR | 1.7 GHz bandwidth, 4300 V/µs slew rate, higher supply current (12.5 mA), requires external compensation | Targeted at RF IF amplification and ultra-high-speed pulse applications beyond video bandwidth | Choose OPA695IDBVR only when >500 MHz small-signal bandwidth or sub-5 ns settling is required |
Compared with THS4031CDR and OPA695IDBVR, the THS4061CDR uniquely balances 180 MHz bandwidth, video-grade linearity (0.02% DG), and unity-gain stability - making it the optimal choice for broadcast-compliant video line drivers and precision high-speed instrumentation where ease of use and signal fidelity are co-prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the THS4061CDR?
The THS4061CDR is rated for operation from 0°C to 70°C ambient temperature (C-suffix grade). Its absolute maximum junction temperature is 150°C, and thermal derating begins at 25°C ambient, reducing power dissipation by 6 mW/°C above that point. This makes the THS4061CDR suitable for commercial-grade video equipment and benchtop instrumentation but not extended-temperature industrial or automotive environments.
Does the THS4061CDR require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, the THS4061CDR is internally compensated and unity-gain stable in both inverting and noninverting configurations. However, for optimal settling behavior and minimal ringing in noninverting unity-gain applications, TI recommends using a 270 Ω feedback resistor - a design detail confirmed in the THS4061CDR datasheet Figure 27 and application note SLOS234E.
Can the THS4061CDR drive a 75 Ω coaxial cable directly?
Yes, the THS4061CDR can drive a 75 Ω coaxial cable directly when configured as a line driver with gain = 2 and proper source termination. Its 115 mA output current capability and ±11.5 V swing into 250 Ω (derated to ~±3.5 V into 75 Ω) support standard video levels. A series 75 Ω resistor at the output is recommended to isolate capacitive load effects and match characteristic impedance.
What is the purpose of Pins 1 and 8 on the THS4061CDR?
Pins 1 and 8 on the THS4061CDR are dedicated null terminals for external input offset voltage adjustment. A potentiometer is connected between these pins, with its wiper tied to VCC−, allowing fine-tuning of DC offset to <1 mV. This feature is explicitly documented in the THS4061CDR datasheet Section "Offset Nulling" and Figure 26.
Is the THS4061CDR pin-compatible with other members of the THS406x family?
Yes, the THS4061CDR (single-channel) shares identical SOIC-8 pinout with THS4062CDR (dual-channel), except that THS4062CDR uses Pins 1 and 8 for second-channel IN− and IN+, respectively. The THS4061CDR's Pin 1 and Pin 8 are both null terminals, whereas THS4062CDR repurposes them for functional inputs - confirming pin compatibility only within same-channel count variants.
