Product details
Overview
THS4150CD from Texas Instruments is a high-speed fully differential amplifier optimized for ADC driver, antialiasing, and differential signal transmission applications. It delivers 150 MHz –3 dB bandwidth at ±5 V supply, 650 V/µs slew rate at ±15 V, –83 dB total harmonic distortion at 1 MHz, 7.6 nV/√Hz input-referred voltage noise, and supports dual-supply (±2.5 V to ±15 V) or single-supply (5 V to 30 V) operation in precision data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the THS4150CD datasheet, THS4150CD pinout, THS4150CD application, or THS4150CD equivalent, key selection criteria include differential output swing (±3.6 V at ±5 V), shutdown current (1.3 mA), VOCM-controlled common-mode level setting, and resistor-matched gain configuration for CMRR preservation in high-fidelity analog front-ends.
Technical Context
The THS4150CD implements a true fully differential signal path from input to output using TI's BiComI complementary bipolar process, enabling balanced output rejection of common-mode noise and intrinsic reduction of second-harmonic distortion. Its internal architecture supports both differential-input/differential-output and single-ended-input/differential-output configurations with gain set by external resistor ratios.
Operation requires matched feedback and gain-setting resistors (e.g., 390 Ω/390 Ω for unity gain) to preserve CMRR, PSRR, and harmonic cancellation. The VOCM pin sets output common-mode voltage-internally biased to midrail when floating-and must be bypassed with a 0.1 µF capacitor to suppress noise coupling into the output stage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| –3 dB Bandwidth | 150 MHz at ±5 V supply - enables wideband signal conditioning up to UHF frequencies without gain peaking or phase degradation |
| Slew Rate | 650 V/µs at ±15 V - supports fast transient response for high-resolution, high-speed ADC sampling without slewing-induced distortion |
| Total Harmonic Distortion | –83 dB at 1 MHz, 2 Vpp output - ensures minimal spectral contamination in precision digitization paths |
| Input Voltage Noise | 7.6 nV/√Hz above 10 kHz - maintains SNR integrity in low-level sensor signal amplification stages |
| Supply Range | ±2.5 V to ±15 V dual or 5 V to 30 V single - accommodates legacy industrial rails and modern low-voltage mixed-signal systems |
| Shutdown Current | 1.3 mA at ±5 V - reduces system power during idle cycles while retaining fast wake-up capability |
| Output Swing | ±3.6 V at ±5 V supply into 800 Ω - delivers full-scale differential drive for 12–16-bit SAR and sigma-delta ADCs |
Pinout & Package
The THS4150CD is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package with exposed PowerPAD™ thermal pad on the underside, requiring connection to a PCB copper plane for thermal management per TI SLMA002/SLMA004 guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN− | Inverting input | Differential input node; paired with VIN+ to define VID = VIN+ − VIN−; requires matched trace routing and impedance control |
| VOCM | Output common-mode voltage control | Sets DC level of both outputs; floating default = VCC/2; must be bypassed with 0.1 µF capacitor to ground for stability |
| VCC+ | Positive supply rail | Accepts +2.5 V to +15 V (dual) or +5 V to +30 V (single); decoupling required within 1 cm of pin |
| VOUT+ | Positive differential output | Delivers amplified, phase-inverted replica of VIN− relative to VOCM; drives one leg of differential ADC input |
| VIN+ | Non-inverting input | Differential input node; paired with VIN−; symmetry critical for CMRR >75 dB across temperature |
| PD | Power-down control | Active-low logic input; pulls output to high-impedance state (636 Ω) and reduces ICC to 1.3 mA when asserted |
| VCC− | Negative supply rail | Accepts −2.5 V to −15 V (dual); tied to GND in single-supply mode; requires local decoupling |
| VOUT− | Negative differential output | Delivers amplified, phase-inverted replica of VIN+ relative to VOCM; complements VOUT+ for noise-rejecting signal transfer |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully differential I/O architecture | Enables true differential signaling end-to-end, rejecting coupled noise at input, output, and power supply nodes |
| Resistor-matched gain configuration | Supports precise gain accuracy (e.g., 1×, 2×, 5×, 10×) via external Rf/Rg networks with 1% tolerance recommended |
| VOCM-controlled common-mode level | Allows dynamic adjustment of output DC offset independent of signal path, essential for interfacing with varying ADC reference levels |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fully differential amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4131CDGN | 150 MHz BW, 51 V/µs SR, 1.3 nV/√Hz noise - lower noise but slower slew rate than THS4150CD | Better suited for low-noise, moderate-speed precision instrumentation; less ideal for fast transient ADC drivers | Select THS4131CDGN when input-referred noise dominates system SNR budget and slew-limited distortion is not critical |
| THS4561IRGET | 1.8 GHz GBW, 5000 V/µs SR, 1.6 nV/√Hz - higher speed, wider supply range (2.7–5.5 V), no shutdown pin | Targets high-speed communication and RF sampling; lacks PD pin and dual-supply flexibility of THS4150CD | Choose THS4561IRGET for >100 MSPS sampling rates or battery-powered designs requiring 3.3 V operation |
Compared with THS4131CDGN and THS4561IRGET, the THS4150CD uniquely balances high slew rate (650 V/µs), wide supply adaptability (±2.5 V to ±15 V), and integrated shutdown functionality-making it optimal for industrial data acquisition where robustness, configurability, and power cycling are essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the THS4150CD?
The THS4150CD is rated for operation from 0°C to 70°C (C-suffix). Its absolute maximum junction temperature is 125°C for continuous reliability, and storage temperature spans –65°C to 150°C. Thermal derating is required above 85°C ambient due to SOIC package thermal resistance (θJA = 97.5°C/W).
Does the THS4150CD support single-supply operation?
Yes, the THS4150CD supports single-supply operation from 5 V to 30 V. When VCC− is tied to ground, VOCM defaults to VCC/2, enabling rail-to-rail differential output swing. Input common-mode range extends from (VCC− +1.5 V) to (VCC+ −1.5 V), so for 5 V supply, VICR is 1.5 V to 3.5 V.
How does the PD pin function on the THS4150CD?
The PD (Power-Down) pin is an active-low control that places THS4150CD into low-power state when pulled below 0.8 V. In shutdown, quiescent current drops to 1.3 mA (at ±5 V), outputs enter high-impedance (636 Ω), and recovery time is ≤1.1 µs. A pull-up resistor to VCC+ is required for normal operation.
What resistor tolerance is recommended for THS4150CD gain networks?
Texas Instruments recommends 1% or better tolerance for all external resistors in THS4150CD feedback (Rf) and gain-setting (Rg) networks. Mismatch >0.1% degrades CMRR, increases second-harmonic distortion, and reduces PSRR-critical for maintaining –83 dB THD performance at 1 MHz.
Can the THS4150CD drive a 50 Ω transmission line directly?
Yes, but only with a 20 Ω series resistor at each output (VOUT+, VOUT−) to isolate capacitive loading and maintain stability. Direct 50 Ω termination causes phase margin loss and potential oscillation due to internal compensation optimized for >800 Ω loads. The 20 Ω resistor also provides source impedance matching for 50 Ω lines.
