Product details
Overview
THS4061IDR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, high-speed voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for video, imaging, and communication signal conditioning. It delivers 180 MHz bandwidth (G = 1), 400 V/µs slew rate, 40 ns settling time (0.1%), ±11.5 V output swing (RL = 250 Ω), and 0.02% differential gain error - enabling precision analog front-end design in broadcast-grade video line drivers and high-fidelity data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the THS4061IDR datasheet, THS4061IDR pinout, THS4061IDR application, or THS4061IDR equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, SOIC-8 package layout, video-optimized performance metrics, thermal derating guidance, and validated alternative options for industrial and professional AV signal chain design.
Technical Context
The THS4061IDR employs a dielectrically isolated complementary bipolar process with GHz fT transistors to achieve wideband stability across all gains in both inverting and noninverting configurations. Its internal frequency compensation ensures unity-gain stability while preserving 180 MHz small-signal bandwidth and 75 MHz 0.1 dB flatness.
Designed for demanding analog signal paths, it features low distortion (−72 dBc THD at 1 MHz), excellent DC precision (±8 mV input offset voltage, 15 µV/°C drift), and robust output drive (115 mA typ, 150 mA absolute max) into 20 Ω loads - supporting active termination and capacitive load isolation via series output resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (−3 dB) | 180 MHz at G = 1, ±15 V supply - supports full HD video baseband and fast pulse amplification without gain peaking. |
| Slew rate | 400 V/µs at ±15 V - enables clean reproduction of >100 MHz square waves with minimal edge distortion. |
| Settling time (0.1%) | 40 ns for 5-V step - critical for high-speed data acquisition and multiplexed ADC driver applications. |
| Differential gain/phase | 0.02% / 0.02° at NTSC, ±15 V - meets SMPTE 253M broadcast video fidelity requirements. |
| Output current | 115 mA typical into 20 Ω - drives 75 Ω coaxial lines directly or powers multiple downstream buffers. |
| Supply range | ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual or 9 V to 33 V single - accommodates legacy ±12 V and modern low-voltage industrial rails. |
| Input offset voltage | ±8 mV max over −40°C to +85°C - maintains DC accuracy in temperature-varying sensor interfaces. |
Pinout & Package
THS4061IDR is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint (5.3 mm × 6.2 mm, 1.27 mm pitch). Thermal pad is not present; power dissipation relies on PCB copper area under leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NULL) | Offset null adjust | Connects to potentiometer wiper for manual input offset trimming; unused pins must be left open or tied to VCC−. |
| 2 (IN−) | Inverting input | High-impedance node requiring short trace routing and guard ring to minimize parasitic capacitance and phase shift. |
| 3 (IN+) | Noninverting input | DC-coupled reference point; matched impedance to IN− improves CMRR above 10 kHz. |
| 4 (VCC−) | Negative supply rail | Must be decoupled with 0.1 µF ceramic + 6.8 µF tantalum placed ≤2.5 mm from pin per TI layout guidelines. |
| 5 (NC) | No internal connection | Not bonded; electrically isolated - no routing or grounding required. |
| 6 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Capable of sourcing/sinking 115 mA; series 20–75 Ω resistor required for >10 pF capacitive loads to prevent oscillation. |
| 7 (VCC+) | Positive supply rail | Same decoupling as VCC−; shared bulk capacitor allowed only if adjacent channels operate synchronously. |
| 8 (NULL) | Offset null adjust | Paired with Pin 1; connects to opposite end of nulling potentiometer - forms balanced offset cancellation network. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unity-gain stable architecture | Operates reliably at G = 1 without external compensation - eliminates risk of instability in video gain-of-one buffers. |
| Professional video performance | 0.02% differential gain and 0.02° phase error at NTSC ensure broadcast-compliant color fidelity without post-processing. |
| High-output drive capability | 115 mA continuous output current enables direct driving of 75 Ω transmission lines or parallel termination networks. |
| Low harmonic distortion | −72 dBc THD at 1 MHz allows use in high-fidelity audio preamps and RF IF stages where spectral purity is critical. |
| Wide supply flexibility | Supports ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual supplies - compatible with legacy ±12 V systems and modern ±5 V embedded designs. |

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 14.5 nV/√Hz noise, 10 mA quiescent current - optimized for low-noise over raw speed. | Better suited for sensor front-ends where SNR dominates over bandwidth; insufficient for >100 MHz video reconstruction. | Select THS4031IDR when system bandwidth requirement is ≤100 MHz and input-referred noise must be minimized below 15 nV/√Hz. |
| OPA695IDBVR | 1.7 GHz bandwidth, 4300 V/µs slew rate, but higher 2.5 mA quiescent current per channel and no offset null pins. | Enables >500 MHz RF/IF amplification but lacks video-optimized differential gain/phase specs and requires external compensation. | Choose OPA695IDBVR only for ultra-wideband applications beyond 500 MHz where THS4061IDR's 180 MHz limit is exceeded. |
Compared with THS4031IDR and OPA695IDBVR, THS4061IDR uniquely balances 180 MHz bandwidth, broadcast-grade video linearity (0.02%/0.02°), and offset-null capability - making it the optimal choice for professional video infrastructure and mixed-signal systems requiring both speed and DC precision.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe supply voltage for THS4061IDR?
The THS4061IDR has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of ±16.5 V (33 V total). Operation beyond this risks permanent damage. For reliable long-term use, TI specifies recommended operating range as ±4.5 V to ±16.5 V dual supply or 9 V to 33 V single supply. Derating begins at 70°C ambient for SOIC packages - consult the Dissipation Rating Table for thermal limits at elevated temperatures.
Does THS4061IDR require external compensation for unity-gain stability?
No, THS4061IDR is internally compensated for unity-gain stability in both inverting and noninverting configurations. Its frequency compensation ensures unconditional stability at G = 1 without external components. However, for optimal transient response with minimal ringing, TI recommends using a 270 Ω feedback resistor in noninverting unity-gain setups - as documented in Figure 27 of the SLOS234E datasheet.
Can THS4061IDR drive 75 Ω coaxial cables directly?
Yes, THS4061IDR can drive 75 Ω coaxial cables directly when configured as a line driver with G = 2 and proper source termination. Its 115 mA output current capability and ±11.5 V swing (at RL = 250 Ω) support 1 VPP into 75 Ω with headroom. TI's application schematic (Figure 27) shows a 2 kΩ/75 Ω resistive divider achieving G = 2 while maintaining impedance match - ensuring minimal reflections and broadcast-compliant signal integrity.
What is the purpose of Pins 1 and 8 (NULL) on THS4061IDR?
Pins 1 and 8 on THS4061IDR are offset null terminals used to adjust input offset voltage manually. A 10 kΩ potentiometer is connected between these pins, with its wiper tied to VCC−. This forms a balanced current injection network that cancels residual input offset - critical for DC-coupled precision applications like medical instrumentation or calibrated test equipment where offset drift must be actively suppressed.
How does THS4061IDR perform in capacitive load conditions?
THS4061IDR is sensitive to capacitive loading due to its high-speed internal compensation. For loads >10 pF, TI mandates a series resistor (≥20 Ω) between the output and load to maintain phase margin and prevent oscillation. In 75 Ω video systems, a 75 Ω series resistor simultaneously isolates capacitance and matches source impedance - as shown in Figure 28. Without this resistor, even 20 pF of stray capacitance can induce high-frequency ringing or sustained oscillation.
