Product details
Overview
THS4151CDGN from Texas Instruments is a high-speed fully differential amplifier optimized for ADC driver, antialiasing, and differential signal conditioning in precision data acquisition systems. It delivers 150 MHz –3 dB bandwidth (VCC = ±5 V), 650 V/µs slew rate (VCC = ±15 V), –83 dB total harmonic distortion at 1 MHz, 7.6 nV/√Hz input-referred voltage noise, and operates from ±2.5 V to ±15 V dual supply or 5 V single supply.
For engineers reviewing the THS4151CDGN datasheet, THS4151CDGN pinout, THS4151CDGN application, or THS4151CDGN equivalent, key selection criteria include differential output swing (±3.9 V at ±5 V), VOCM-controlled common-mode level setting, resistor-matched gain configuration (Rf = 390 Ω, Rg = 390 Ω for G = 1), and thermal performance in MSOP PowerPAD™ package with θJA = 58.4°C/W.
Technical Context
The THS4151CDGN implements a true fully differential signal path using TI's BiComI complementary bipolar process, enabling balanced differential input-to-differential output operation without internal feedback splitting. Its architecture inherently rejects common-mode noise on both input and power rails while reducing second-harmonic distortion via symmetric signal cancellation.
It supports both differential-input/differential-output and single-ended-input/differential-output configurations. Gain is set externally by matched resistor pairs (e.g., Rf = Rg = 390 Ω for unity gain), and the VOCM pin directly controls output common-mode voltage-critical for interfacing with differential ADCs requiring precise mid-rail or reference-derived bias levels.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
The THS4151CDGN is housed in an 8-pin MSOP PowerPAD™ package (DGN) with exposed thermal pad on underside, requiring connection to PCB copper pour for thermal management per TI SLMA002/SLMA004 guidelines. Package dimensions: 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 1.0 mm, pitch 0.65 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN− | Inverting input terminal | Accepts differential or single-ended input; paired with VIN+ to define VID = VIN+ − VIN− |
| VOCM | Output common-mode control | Sets average DC level of VOUT+ and VOUT−; bypass with 0.1 µF capacitor for stability |
| VCC+ | Positive supply rail | Connects to +VS; must be decoupled locally with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor |
| VOUT+ | Positive differential output | Delivers amplified, phase-inverted or non-inverted signal depending on configuration |
| VIN+ | Non-inverting input terminal | Accepts differential or single-ended input; defines common-mode input range with VIN− |
| NC | No-connect terminal | Internally unused; leave unconnected and unbonded - not for grounding or routing |
| VCC− | Negative supply rail | Connects to –VS; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling |
| VOUT− | Negative differential output | Complementary output to VOUT+; together forms fully differential output pair |
Key Features

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4131CDGN | 150 MHz BW, 51 V/µs slew rate, 1.3 nV/√Hz noise - lower noise but slower slew rate than THS4151CDGN | Better suited for ultra-low-noise, moderate-speed applications (e.g., audio ADC drivers); less ideal for fast transient-heavy waveforms | Select THS4131CDGN when input-referred noise dominates system SNR budget and slew-limited distortion is not a concern. |
| THS4141CDGN | 160 MHz BW, 450 V/µs slew rate, 6.5 nV/√Hz noise - higher bandwidth and faster slew than THS4151CDGN, slightly higher noise | Optimized for highest-speed applications (e.g., >20 MSPS digitizers); may require tighter layout control due to increased bandwidth sensitivity | Choose THS4141CDGN when system bandwidth exceeds 150 MHz and slew-induced distortion must be minimized at multi-volt step amplitudes. |
Compared with THS4131CDGN and THS4141CDGN, the THS4151CDGN strikes a balance between slew rate (650 V/µs), noise (7.6 nV/√Hz), and distortion (–83 dB THD), making it the preferred choice for general-purpose high-fidelity differential ADC driving where both speed and linearity are critical.

FAQ
What is the recommended power supply decoupling for THS4151CDGN?
Each supply pin (VCC+ and VCC−) requires a local 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed within 2 mm of the pin and connected to a low-inductance ground plane. For high-current or noisy environments, add a 4.7 µF–10 µF bulk capacitor nearby. The VOCM pin also needs a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor to suppress noise coupling into the output common-mode level. These values are validated in TI's THS4151CDGN evaluation board layout.
Does THS4151CDGN support single-supply operation?
Yes, THS4151CDGN operates from a single 5 V supply. In this mode, the VOCM pin defaults to mid-rail (2.5 V) if left unconnected, enabling direct interfacing with differential ADCs that accept 2.5 V common-mode input. Input common-mode range is limited to 1.5 V to 3.5 V, and output swing reaches ±3.9 V differentially - sufficient for most 5 V-domain ADC drivers.
How does resistor matching affect THS4151CDGN performance?
Resistor mismatch in the external Rf/Rg feedback network directly degrades CMRR, PSRR, and second-harmonic distortion. TI specifies ≤1% tolerance resistors for optimal performance. A 0.1% mismatch can reduce CMRR by >10 dB at 1 MHz and increase even-order harmonics. Matched thin-film arrays or precision discrete resistors are recommended for THS4151CDGN designs targeting <–90 dB THD.
Can THS4151CDGN drive capacitive loads directly?
No - THS4151CDGN is internally compensated for optimal bandwidth/slew rate and becomes unstable with >10 pF capacitive load directly at the output. For any capacitive load (e.g., PCB trace, ADC input capacitance), a series isolation resistor (≥20 Ω) must be placed between the THS4151CDGN output and the load. This maintains phase margin and prevents ringing, especially critical in high-frequency signal paths.
What is the function of the NC pin on THS4151CDGN?
The NC (No Connect) pin on THS4151CDGN is an unconnected, unbonded terminal inside the die. It serves no electrical function and must remain floating - do not tie to ground, supply, or any other node. Routing traces to or placing vias near the NC pin may introduce parasitic coupling; TI's layout guidelines specify keeping this pin isolated and unpopulated on the PCB.
