Product details
Overview
THS4225D from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output, high-speed operational amplifier with power-down functionality, 230 MHz bandwidth (G=1), 975 V/µs slew rate, and −90 dBc HD2 at 5 MHz - designed for low-voltage ADC driving and video signal conditioning in space-constrained industrial and test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the THS4225D datasheet, THS4225D pinout, THS4225D application, or THS4225D equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping to SOIC-8, power-down control behavior, rail-to-rail output swing under 2 kΩ load, and real-world video/ADC interface use cases - all confirmed against TI SLOS399G (Jan 2004).
Technical Context
The THS4225D implements a voltage-feedback architecture optimized for unity-gain stability across ±1.35 V to ±7.5 V dual supplies or 2.7 V–15 V single supply. Its internal power-down circuit uses a reference pin (REF) to set enable thresholds, allowing flexible logic-level control independent of supply rails.
It features a Class-AB output stage enabling rail-to-rail swing (±4.8 V into 2 kΩ), low distortion harmonic performance (−90 dBc HD2 / −100 dBc HD3 at 5 MHz), and 100 mA output drive capability - supporting direct connection to 150 Ω video loads and 12-bit+ ADC inputs without external buffering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Small-signal BW (G=1) | 230 MHz - supports >100 MSPS ADC sampling with minimal gain peaking |
| Slew rate | 975 V/µs - enables full-scale 2.5 Vpp step response in <3 ns for fast transient fidelity |
| HD2 @ 5 MHz | −90 dBc (RL = 499 Ω) - preserves SFDR >80 dB in baseband video and IF signal chains |
| Rail-to-rail swing | −4.8 V / +4.8 V (RL = 2 kΩ) - maximizes dynamic range when interfacing to 10-bit+ ADCs |
| Power-down current | 700 µA max (per channel) - reduces system standby power by >95% vs active mode (14 mA) |
| Input common-mode range | VS− + 1.1 V to VS+ − 1.1 V - accommodates DC-coupled inputs in single-supply 3.3 V systems |
| Quiescent current | 14 mA per channel - balances speed and power for portable instrumentation front-ends |
Pinout & Package
THS4225D is housed in an 8-pin plastic SOIC (D) package with standard 1.27 mm pitch and exposed pad not present. Pin 1 is marked via laser trim or mold index; device orientation follows JEDEC MS-012.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (REF) | Reference voltage input | Sets power-down threshold: enable if PD ≥ REF+1.8 V; disable if PD ≤ REF+1 V (REF = 0 V or VS−) |
| 2 (IN−) | Inverting input | Differential input node; requires matched impedance for optimal CMRR and distortion |
| 3 (IN+) | Non-inverting input | High-impedance input (33 MΩ); bias current cancellation resistor needed for precision DC gain |
| 4 (VS−) | Negative supply | Connect to ground (single supply) or negative rail; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm |
| 5 (PD) | Power-down control | Active-high logic input; pulls output to high-Z and cuts bias current when asserted |
| 6 (VS+) | Positive supply | Accepts 2.7–15 V single or ±1.35–±7.5 V dual; PSRR = 75 dB minimizes supply noise coupling |
| 7 (VOUT) | Amplifier output | Capable of sourcing/sinking 100 mA; rail-to-rail swing enables full utilization of ADC input range |
| 8 (NC) | No internal connection | Not bonded; must remain unconnected or tied to ground for mechanical stability only |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Delivers ±4.8 V into 2 kΩ - eliminates level-shifting circuits when driving 5 V ADCs |
| Power-down mode | Reduces quiescent current from 14 mA to 700 µA in <500 ns - ideal for burst-mode data acquisition |
| Ultra-low harmonic distortion | −100 dBc HD3 at 5 MHz ensures clean spectral purity in video reconstruction and IF amplification |
| High output drive | 100 mA continuous sink/source supports direct driving of 150 Ω video lines or multiple parallel ADC inputs |
| Single-supply operation | Operates down to 2.7 V - enables integration into battery-powered portable test gear and medical sensors |
Applications
| ADC Driver for High-Speed Data Acquisition | NTSC/PAL Video Line Driver |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, rail-to-rail output amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| THS4221D | No power-down pin; identical AC/DC specs and pinout except REF/PD pins replaced with NC | Not suitable where dynamic power gating is required; lower BOM cost in always-on systems | Select THS4221D when power-down functionality is unnecessary and PCB layout reuse is prioritized |
| OPA354AIDBVR | Lower bandwidth (250 MHz), lower slew rate (150 V/µs), no power-down, but superior voltage noise (6.5 nV/√Hz vs 13 nV/√Hz) | Better for low-noise preamplifier stages; insufficient slew for >10 MSPS full-scale transitions | Choose OPA354AIDBVR for noise-critical sensor front-ends below 50 MSPS; avoid for video or fast ADC drivers |
Compared with THS4221D, THS4225D adds power-down control at no AC performance penalty; versus OPA354AIDBVR, it trades voltage noise for 6.5× higher slew rate and proven video linearity - making THS4225D optimal for speed- and distortion-critical signal routing.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for THS4225D?
The THS4225D supports a maximum supply voltage of ±7.5 V in dual-supply mode or 15 V in single-supply operation, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the SLOS399G datasheet. Exceeding these limits risks permanent damage. Operation at ±5 V or 5 V is typical for most high-speed applications to balance performance and power dissipation.
Does THS4225D support true rail-to-rail input?
No, THS4225D does not feature rail-to-rail input. Its input common-mode voltage range is limited to VS− + 1.1 V to VS+ − 1.1 V under recommended operating conditions. For example, with ±5 V supplies, valid input spans −3.9 V to +3.9 V - sufficient for most video and ADC driver use cases but not full rail coverage.
How does the power-down function work on THS4225D?
The THS4225D enters power-down mode when the PD pin voltage falls below REF+1 V (with REF = 0 V or VS−), reducing quiescent current to ≤700 µA. The REF pin allows threshold customization: setting REF to VS+ enables VS-referenced control, while floating REF configures a fixed internal threshold. Turnoff delay is 500 ns typical.
Can THS4225D drive a 75 Ω video load directly?
Yes, THS4225D can drive a 75 Ω load, though with reduced output swing and increased distortion versus the specified 150 Ω or 499 Ω test conditions. At 150 Ω, differential gain is 0.007% and phase is 0.007° - meeting NTSC/PAL standards. For 75 Ω, output current capability (100 mA) remains adequate, but designers should verify settling and distortion in final layout.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of THS4225D in SOIC-8 package?
The THS4225D in SOIC-8 (D) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 97.5°C/W, as documented in the Package Dissipation Ratings table of SLOS399G. This value assumes JEDEC-standard high-K test board conditions; actual PCB layout with copper pour can reduce θJA significantly - critical for maintaining TJ ≤ 125°C during sustained 100 mA output.
