Product details
Overview
TSH73CPT from STMicroelectronics is a triple rail-to-rail, wide-band, low-power operational amplifier in SO14 package, delivering 90 MHz bandwidth, 70 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 100 V/µs slew rate (typ. at 5 V), ±55 mA output current, and rail-to-rail output swing into 150 Ω loads - deployed as video driver for STi7xxx DAC outputs on 75-Ω coaxial lines.
For engineers reviewing the TSH73CPT datasheet, TSH73CPT pinout, TSH73CPT application, or TSH73CPT equivalent, this page delivers verified circuit role (triple high-speed video op-amp with per-channel standby control), exact package mapping (SO14), validated pin functions, real-world video/ADC/hifi use constraints, and two confirmed drop-in alternatives with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The TSH73CPT integrates three independent high-speed amplifiers in one SO14 package, each with dedicated standby input (Pins 1, 2, 3) enabling individual channel power gating. It operates from single 3–12 V or dual ±5 V supplies, supporting rail-to-rail output swing and specified performance into 150 Ω loads - critical for driving 75 Ω video lines with minimal termination loss.
Each amplifier features 0.5 % differential gain and 0.5 ° differential phase error at 4.5 MHz, 11 nV/√Hz input noise, and −61 dB THD at 4 MHz - confirming suitability for SD/HD video reconstruction filtering and precision ADC buffering where signal fidelity and timing integrity are non-negotiable.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth @ −3 dB | 90 MHz - supports full NTSC/PAL video baseband (0–5.5 MHz) with >16× margin for group delay flatness and transient response. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 70 MHz - enables stable closed-loop gain ≥ +11 at DC while maintaining phase margin ≥40° into 150 Ω // 30 pF. |
| Slew Rate | 100 V/µs (typ. at 5 V) - ensures ≤1 ns rise/fall time for 2 Vpp video signals, preventing edge distortion in sync pulses. |
| Output Current | ±55 mA - drives 75 Ω video loads directly without external buffers, eliminating inter-stage coupling capacitors. |
| Differential Gain / Phase | 0.5 % / 0.5 ° at 4.5 MHz - meets SMPTE 253M broadcast video linearity requirements for Y/C separation fidelity. |
| THD | −61 dB at 4 MHz, 2 Vpp - preserves dynamic range in hi-fi audio line drivers and high-resolution ADC front-ends. |
| Standby Current | 20–55 µA per channel - reduces total quiescent power by >98 % when unused channels are gated during low-power modes. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO14 (Small Outline, 14-pin, 3.9 mm × 8.75 mm, 1.27 mm pitch).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | STANDBY1 | Active-low enable for Op-Amp 1; pulls to VCC− to enter standby (high-Z output, 20 µA ICC). |
| 2 | STANDBY2 | Active-low enable for Op-Amp 2; independent gating allows dynamic channel multiplexing in video switchers. |
| 3 | STANDBY3 | Active-low enable for Op-Amp 3; enables power-aware routing of RGB/YUV signal paths in portable displays. |
| 4 | VCC− | Negative supply rail (GND for single supply, −5 V for dual); referenced for all input common-mode and output swing. |
| 5 | Non-Inverting Input 1 | High-impedance (+) input for Channel 1; supports DC-coupled video or AC-coupled sensor interfaces. |
| 6 | Inverting Input 1 | Inverting node for Channel 1; used with feedback network to set gain and compensate for layout parasitics. |
| 7 | Output 1 | Rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing/sinking ±55 mA into 150 Ω; directly terminates 75 Ω coax via 75 Ω series resistor. |
| 8 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail (3–12 V single or +5 V dual); decoupling required within 5 mm for 90 MHz stability. |
| 9 | Non-Inverting Input 2 | Input for Channel 2; electrically isolated from Ch1/Ch3 to maintain >65 dB channel separation up to 10 MHz. |
| 10 | Inverting Input 2 | Inverting node for Channel 2; matched layout with Pin 6 minimizes inter-channel gain mismatch. |
| 11 | Output 2 | Independent output for Channel 2; supports simultaneous RGB or YUV signal buffering without crosstalk. |
| 12 | Non-Inverting Input 3 | Input for Channel 3; identical bias structure to Pins 5/9 ensures <1 mV inter-channel Vio mismatch. |
| 13 | Inverting Input 3 | Inverting node for Channel 3; enables unity-gain follower or gain-of-2 configurations per channel. |
| 14 | Output 3 | Third rail-to-rail output; allows full triple-output video driver (e.g., Y, Pb, Pr) in single SO14 footprint. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing into 150 Ω | Delivers 2.45 V minimum VOH and 40 mV maximum VOL at 3 V supply - eliminates level-shifting ICs in battery-powered video gear. |
| Per-channel standby control | Three independent STANDBY pins (1,2,3) reduce system power by >95 % when only one video channel is active - essential for portable HDMI transmitters. |
| 75 Ω video line drive capability | Specified for 150 Ω load (75 Ω source + 75 Ω termination) with <0.5 % differential gain error - meets broadcast video signal integrity standards. |
| Low 11 nV/√Hz input noise | Enables clean amplification of low-level sensor or audio signals without degrading SNR in 24-bit ADC front-ends. |
| Single-supply operation from 3 V | Operates down to 3 V with full 90 MHz bandwidth - extends battery life in handheld test equipment and portable media players. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple high-speed op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMH6703MA/NOPB | Single-channel, 1.8 GHz GBW, no standby function, SO8 package; higher power (12.5 mA/ch) and noise (12 nV/√Hz). | Requires three separate SO8s for triple function; lacks per-channel power gating - unsuitable for portable video with dynamic channel usage. | Select when ultra-wideband (>500 MHz) small-signal gain is prioritized over power efficiency and integration density. |
| ADA4891-3ARZ | Triple 225 MHz GBW op-amp in SO14; no standby pins; lower output current (60 mA); 10.5 nV/√Hz noise; 12 V max supply. | Matches pin count but cannot gate individual channels - forces full-device power-down, increasing latency in video switching. | Select when highest possible bandwidth is needed and standby functionality is managed externally via analog switches. |
Compared with LMH6703MA/NOPB and ADA4891-3ARZ, the TSH73CPT uniquely combines triple-channel integration, per-amplifier standby control, and 75 Ω video drive compliance in a single SO14 package - reducing BOM count by 2× and enabling sub-10 µs channel switching in portable video systems.

FAQ
What supply voltage ranges does the TSH73CPT support?
The TSH73CPT operates from single 3 V to 12 V supplies or dual ±5 V supplies. At 3 V, it maintains 87 MHz bandwidth and 45 V/µs slew rate; at ±5 V, bandwidth reaches 100 MHz and slew rate hits 118 V/µs. Common-mode input range spans VCC− to (VCC+ − 1.1 V), enabling direct interfacing with 0–3.3 V logic and legacy video DACs.
How does the standby mode affect output impedance and recovery time?
In standby mode, each amplifier's output transitions to high-impedance state with 10 MΩ || 17 pF output impedance, and recovery time (Ton) is 2 µs to full performance. Standby current drops to 20–55 µA per channel. This allows seamless signal multiplexing without loading downstream stages - verified in Figure 14 of the datasheet under VCC = ±1.5 V open-loop conditions.
Can the TSH73CPT drive 75 Ω coaxial cables directly without external termination?
Yes - the TSH73CPT is explicitly characterized into 150 Ω loads (75 Ω source + 75 Ω termination). Its ±55 mA output current and rail-to-rail swing ensure full 2 Vpp video signals with <0.5 % differential gain error at 4.5 MHz. Layout requires 75 Ω series resistor at the output pin and proper ground plane - as shown in Figure 1 of the datasheet for STi7xxx DAC interface.
What is the maximum ambient temperature for continuous operation?
The TSH73CPT has an operating free-air temperature range of 0 °C to +70 °C. Junction temperature must not exceed 150 °C, and thermal resistance is 22 °C/W (junction-to-case) and 125 °C/W (junction-to-ambient) for SO14 package. At 10.5 mA supply current per channel and 5 V supply, power dissipation is ~160 mW - requiring no heatsink below 50 °C ambient with standard PCB copper pour.
