Product details
Overview
THS4140IDGNR from Texas Instruments is a high-speed fully differential amplifier designed for precision signal conditioning in ADC driver, antialiasing, and differential transmitter/receiver applications. It delivers 160 MHz –3 dB bandwidth (±15 V supply), 450 V/µs slew rate, –79 dB third-harmonic distortion at 1 MHz, 6.5 nV/√Hz input noise, and features shutdown mode with 0.88 mA quiescent current.
For engineers reviewing the THS4140IDGNR datasheet, THS4140IDGNR pinout, THS4140IDGNR application, or THS4140IDGNR equivalent, key selection criteria include differential output swing (±12 V @ ±15 V), VOCM-controlled common-mode level, PowerPAD™ thermal performance, and PD pin active-low shutdown behavior.
Technical Context
The THS4140IDGNR implements a true fully differential signal path-differential input to differential output-enabling balanced noise rejection, reduced second-harmonic distortion via output symmetry, and improved CMRR (84 dB typical) and PSRR (70 dB dc). Its BiComI bipolar process supports wide supply range (±2.5 V to ±15 V or 5 V single supply) and rail-to-rail output swing capability.
Unlike standard op-amps, it uses VOCM to set output common-mode voltage independently of input, and includes an active-low PD pin that places outputs in high-impedance state (<1 MΩ) while reducing ICC to 0.88 mA. The internal architecture avoids cross-coupling between input and output stages, preserving phase margin under capacitive loads when series output resistors are used.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| –3 dB Bandwidth | 160 MHz at ±15 V supply - enables baseband signal integrity up to Nyquist frequency of 80 MSPS ADCs |
| Slew Rate | 450 V/µs - supports fast transient response without slewing-induced distortion in high-dynamic-range systems |
| THD @ 1 MHz | –79 dB differential-in/differential-out - meets SFDR requirements for 14-bit+ ADC drivers |
| Input Noise | 6.5 nV/√Hz at 10 kHz - preserves SNR in low-level sensor or audio front-end amplification |
| Shutdown Current | 0.88 mA - reduces system power during idle cycles without compromising wake-up latency |
| CMRR | 84 dB typical - rejects coupled noise on shared PCB traces or noisy power rails |
| Output Swing | ±12 V @ ±15 V supply - delivers full-scale differential drive into 800 Ω loads without clipping |
Pinout & Package
The THS4140IDGNR is housed in an 8-pin MSOP PowerPAD™ package (DGN), featuring an exposed thermal pad on the underside for enhanced heat dissipation. This thermally optimized construction supports continuous operation at junction temperatures ≤125°C when properly soldered to a copper pour.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: VIN− | Inverting input | Differential input node; requires matched external feedback network for gain stability and CMRR optimization |
| 2: VOCM | Common-mode output control | Sets DC level of both outputs; bypass with 0.1 µF capacitor to suppress noise coupling |
| 3: VCC+ | Positive supply | Accepts +2.5 V to +15 V (dual) or +5 V (single); must be decoupled with 0.1 µF ceramic + 6.8 µF tantalum |
| 4: VOUT+ | Positive differential output | Delivers inverted-phase signal relative to VOUT−; drives one leg of differential ADC input |
| 5: VIN+ | Non-inverting input | Differential input node; symmetric layout critical to preserve balance and harmonic cancellation |
| 6: PD | Power-down control | Active-low enable; tie to VCC− to enter shutdown; leaves outputs in high-Z state (>1 MΩ) |
| 7: VCC− | Negative supply | Accepts –2.5 V to –15 V (dual); same decoupling as VCC+ required for PSRR performance |
| 8: VOUT− | Negative differential output | Delivers non-inverted-phase signal relative to VOUT+; completes balanced drive to ADC or transmission line |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully differential I/O architecture | Enables true differential signaling with inherent common-mode noise rejection and second-harmonic cancellation |
| Wide supply range support | Operates from 5 V single supply to ±15 V dual supply - simplifies integration across mixed-voltage systems |
| VOCM-controlled output bias | Allows precise setting of output common-mode level independent of input, enabling seamless interface to ADC reference voltages |
| Integrated shutdown mode | Reduces quiescent current to 0.88 mA while placing outputs in high-impedance state - ideal for power-gated signal chains |
| PowerPAD™ thermal package | MSOP-DGN's exposed thermal pad lowers θJA to 58.4°C/W - sustains 1.71 W power dissipation at 25°C ambient |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4141IDGNR | No PD pin; fixed operation only; identical bandwidth, noise, and distortion specs | Used where continuous operation is required and power gating is unnecessary | Select THS4141IDGNR if shutdown functionality is not needed and board space allows same footprint |
| THS4131IDGNR | 150 MHz bandwidth, 51 V/µs slew rate, 1.3 nV/√Hz noise - lower speed but superior noise performance | Better suited for low-frequency, ultra-low-noise applications like precision instrumentation | Choose THS4131IDGNR when SNR >100 dB is prioritized over bandwidth >150 MHz |

FAQ
What is the function of the PD pin on the THS4140IDGNR?
The PD (Power-Down) pin on the THS4140IDGNR is an active-low control terminal. When pulled below ~1.4 V above VCC− (e.g., to VCC−), it disables the amplifier core, reducing quiescent current to 0.88 mA and placing both VOUT+ and VOUT− in high-impedance state (>1 MΩ). Leaving PD unconnected defaults to active mode due to an internal 50 kΩ pull-up to VCC. This behavior is confirmed in the THS4140IDGNR datasheet Section "Power-Down Mode".
How does VOCM affect the output of the THS4140IDGNR?
VOCM sets the common-mode voltage of both differential outputs (VOUT+ and VOUT−) in the THS4140IDGNR. With no external voltage applied, VOCM defaults to midrail (e.g., 2.5 V on 5 V supply). Applying a precise voltage-such as an ADC's VREF-directly to VOCM aligns the amplifier's output common-mode level with the ADC input requirement, eliminating level-shifting circuitry. This is validated in the THS4140IDGNR application diagram Figure 22 and Principles of Operation section.
Can the THS4140IDGNR operate from a single 5-V supply?
Yes, the THS4140IDGNR supports single-supply operation from 5 V (VCC+ = 5 V, VCC− = GND). In this configuration, VOCM defaults to 2.5 V, and the output swing is specified as 1.2 V to 3.8 V (differential) at 25°C. Input common-mode range extends from –4 V to +4.5 V relative to VCC−, allowing ground-referenced inputs. These values are explicitly listed in the THS4140IDGNR Recommended Operating Conditions and Electrical Characteristics tables.
What thermal considerations apply to the THS4140IDGNR in the DGN package?
The THS4140IDGNR in the MSOP PowerPAD™ (DGN) package requires soldering its exposed thermal pad to a PCB copper pour for effective heat dissipation. With proper thermal design, θJA is 58.4°C/W, enabling 1.71 W power dissipation at 25°C ambient. Operation above 125°C junction temperature degrades distortion performance and reliability. Thermal guidelines are detailed in TI technical briefs SLMA002 and SLMA004, referenced in the THS4140IDGNR Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
How does resistor matching impact THS4140IDGNR performance?
Resistor matching directly affects CMRR, PSRR, and second-harmonic distortion in the THS4140IDGNR. Mismatched feedback or gain-setting resistors unbalance the differential path, degrading common-mode rejection and increasing even-order harmonics. TI recommends 1% tolerance or better resistors for Rf and Rg networks. This requirement is documented in the THS4140IDGNR Application Information section "Resistor Matching" and supported by measured CMRR vs. frequency curves showing >10 dB degradation with 0.5% mismatch.
