Product details
Overview
TS951ILT from STMicroelectronics is a single-channel rail-to-rail input/output BiCMOS operational amplifier optimized for 3 V and 5 V battery-powered systems. It delivers 3 MHz gain-bandwidth, 1 V/µs slew rate, 0.9 mA supply current at 3 V, ±12 V absolute max supply, and operates across –40 °C to +125 °C - used in portable headphone speaker drivers and DAC output buffering.
For engineers reviewing the TS951ILT datasheet, TS951ILT pinout, TS951ILT application, or TS951ILT equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail I/O swing at low supply (2.7–12 V), latch-up immunity, SOT23-5 footprint constraints, and THD of 0.01% at 10 kHz with 4 Vpk-pk output.
Technical Context
The TS951ILT uses BiCMOS process technology to achieve rail-to-rail input common-mode range (VDD − 0.2 V to VCC + 0.2 V) and rail-to-rail output swing (2.8 V high / 0.25 V low at 3 V supply, RL = 600 Ω). Its 60° phase margin and 10 dB gain margin ensure stable unity-gain operation with capacitive loads up to 100 pF.
It features 80 dB supply voltage rejection ratio (SVR) and 80 dB common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR), enabling robust performance in noisy industrial signal conditioning. Input offset voltage is 6–8 mV over temperature, with drift as low as 2 µV/°C - suitable for precision DC-coupled sensor interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 12 V - supports single-supply operation from Li-ion (3.3 V) up to industrial 12 V rails. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 3 MHz - enables stable closed-loop gain ≥10 at 300 kHz for active filter stages. |
| Slew Rate | 1 V/µs - sufficient for 10 kHz full-scale audio signals with ≤0.01% THD at 4 Vpk-pk. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 6–8 mV (typ/max) - sets DC error floor in precision transimpedance or instrumentation amp front-ends. |
| Supply Current per Amplifier | 0.9–1.3 mA at 3 V - allows integration into ultra-low-power wearable medical sensors. |
| Output Short-Circuit Current | ±10 mA - drives 600 Ω headphones directly without external buffer stage. |
| THD + Noise | 0.01% at 10 kHz, AV = 2, RL = 10 kΩ - meets Class D audio preamp linearity requirements. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 micropackage (2.9 mm × 2.8 mm × 1.3 mm), RoHS-compliant ECOPACK® grade, thermal resistance RthJA = 250 °C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input (−) | Differential input node; accepts signals within VDD − 0.2 V to VCC + 0.2 V common-mode range. |
| 2 | Non-inverting Input (+) | Differential input node; same rail-to-rail CMVR as Pin 1; bias current ≤100 nA at Tmax. |
| 3 | Output | Rail-to-rail swing: VOH ≥ 2.8 V / VOL ≤ 0.25 V at 3 V supply, RL = 600 Ω. |
| 4 | VCC (Positive Supply) | Primary power rail; absolute max 14 V; SVR = 80 dB ensures noise rejection from noisy DC-DC outputs. |
| 5 | VDD (Ground / Negative Rail) | Reference node for single-supply operation; supports true 0 V output down to 80 mV at 3 V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input common-mode range | Extends 0.2 V beyond both supply rails - eliminates level-shifting in 3 V sensor front-ends. |
| Rail-to-rail output voltage swing | Delivers >95% of supply rail-to-rail span at 600 Ω load - maximizes dynamic range in portable audio. |
| Latch-up immunity | Rated for 200 mA injection - prevents failure during ESD events or transient overvoltage on inputs. |
| Low 0.9 mA supply current at 3 V | Enables >100-hour battery life in coin-cell-powered medical patch monitors. |
| 80 dB supply voltage rejection | Suppresses ripple from switching regulators feeding adjacent MCU or RF sections. |
Applications
| Portable Headphone Driver | DAC Output Buffer |
|---|---|
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision unity-gain buffer with <8 mV offset to maintain DC accuracy across –40 °C to +85 °C. Use Value: 2 µV/°C offset drift and 80 dB CMRR reject ground noise from shared PCB return paths, ensuring <0.1% FSR error. |
| Industrial Signal Conditioning | Medical Instrumentation Front-End |
|
Use Scenario: Amplifying low-level thermocouple or strain gauge signals in factory-floor sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise (25 nV/√Hz), rail-to-rail input stage preceding 24-bit ΣΔ ADC. Use Value: 0.9 mA quiescent current enables always-on sensing nodes; latch-up immunity survives 2 kV HBM ESD events near motor drives. |
Use Scenario: Biopotential acquisition in portable ECG patches with single 3 V coin cell. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: First-stage instrumentation amplifier input buffer with rail-to-rail CMVR covering full electrode offset range.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar single-channel rail-to-rail op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TS951ID | SO8 package (5.0 × 4.0 mm), RthJA = 125 °C/W, identical electrical specs. | Better thermal dissipation for continuous 10 mA output; requires larger PCB area. | Select when board space permits and sustained output current >5 mA is required. |
| MCP6001T-I/OT | Lower GBW (1 MHz), higher VIO (1.5 mV typ), 0.6 µA IQ, SOT23-5. | Ultra-low power but insufficient bandwidth for audio or fast DAC buffering. | Select only for sub-100 kHz sensor signal conditioning where <1 µA supply current is mandatory. |
Compared with TS951ID and MCP6001T-I/OT, the TS951ILT uniquely balances 3 MHz bandwidth, rail-to-rail I/O, and 0.9 mA quiescent current in the smallest footprint - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-powered audio and precision analog modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the TS951ILT can drive stably?
The TS951ILT maintains 60° phase margin and 10 dB gain margin with up to 100 pF capacitive load at unity gain, as verified in Figure 3 (gain/phase vs. frequency) and Table 3/4 of DS1256. For loads >100 pF, a series isolation resistor (≥10 Ω) is required at the output to prevent peaking or oscillation.
Does the TS951ILT support dual-supply operation?
Yes - the TS951ILT operates with split supplies (e.g., ±1.5 V to ±6 V) as confirmed by absolute maximum ratings (VCC = 14 V, VIN = VDD − 0.3 V to VCC + 0.3 V) and electrical test conditions in Tables 3–4 using VDD = 0 V reference. Common-mode range remains rail-to-rail relative to each supply rail.
Is the TS951ILT qualified for automotive applications?
No - the TS951ILT (marking K101) is industrial-grade (–40 °C to +125 °C). Automotive qualification is reserved for TS951IYLT (K102) and TS951RIYLT (K103), which meet AEC-Q100 Grade 2 and undergo additional screening per AEC-Q001/Q002.
How does the TS951ILT's input bias current affect high-impedance sensor interfaces?
Input bias current is 35–200 nA over temperature (Table 3–4), causing ≤2 mV error across 10 MΩ source impedance. For pH or piezoelectric sensors (>100 MΩ), use guard traces and low-leakage PCB materials - or select a JFET-input op-amp with <1 pA IIB.
