Product details
Overview
UA741ID from STMicroelectronics is a general-purpose single operational amplifier in SO-8 package, featuring ±15 V supply operation, 200 V/mV large-signal voltage gain, 0.5 V/μs slew rate, and internal frequency compensation. It serves as a foundational analog building block in feedback circuits, integrators, and active filters for industrial instrumentation and signal conditioning systems.
For engineers reviewing the UA741ID datasheet, UA741ID pinout, UA741ID application, or UA741ID equivalent, key selection considerations include input offset voltage (≤6 mV), common-mode rejection ratio (≥70 dB), output short-circuit current (10–40 mA), thermal resistance (125 °C/W), and SO-8 footprint compatibility with legacy DIP8 layouts.
Technical Context
The UA741ID implements a classic bipolar-input op-amp architecture with NPN differential pair input stage, Class-A output stage, and internal 30 pF Miller compensation capacitor ensuring unity-gain stability without external components. Its 6 dB/octave dominant-pole compensation provides predictable phase margin (50°) across temperature and load conditions.
It operates over -40°C to +105°C with ±22 V absolute maximum supply rating, supports rail-to-rail input common-mode range (±12 V), and delivers ±10 V output swing into 2 kΩ. Input bias current (10–200 nA) and input resistance (0.3–2 MΩ) reflect its bipolar transistor design heritage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | ±5 V to ±22 V - supports dual-rail analog systems with headroom for signal swing and transient margins |
| Large-Signal Voltage Gain | 25–200 V/mV - enables high-precision closed-loop gain accuracy in summing and differential configurations |
| Slew Rate | 0.25–0.5 V/μs - limits full-power bandwidth to ~300 kHz, suitable for audio and DC-coupled control loops |
| Input Offset Voltage | 1–6 mV - determines DC error in precision integrators and low-gain sensor amplifiers |
| Common-Mode Rejection Ratio | 70–90 dB - suppresses noise and interference in non-inverting configurations with unbalanced source impedances |
| Output Short-Circuit Current | 10–40 mA - provides inherent protection against momentary overload without external current limiting |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 0.7–1 MHz - defines unity-gain stable bandwidth; usable up to ~100 kHz at gain ≥10 |
Pinout & Package
UA741ID is supplied in an SO-8 (Small Outline Integrated Circuit, 8-pin) plastic micropackage with gull-wing leads, compliant with ECOPACK® environmental standards. Thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 125 °C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Offset null 1 | Adjustment terminal for trimming input offset voltage using external potentiometer |
| 2 | Inverting input | Negative input node for feedback configuration; high-impedance bipolar base connection |
| 3 | Non-inverting input | Positive input node; matched to pin 2 for CMR optimization |
| 4 | VCC− | Negative supply rail connection; must be decoupled locally for stability |
| 5 | Offset null 2 | Second adjustment terminal completing the offset trim network |
| 6 | Output | Class-A push-pull output stage capable of sourcing/sinking ≥10 mA continuously |
| 7 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail connection; referenced to pin 4 for symmetric operation |
| 8 | No connect | Internally unconnected; left floating per design-no external tie required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external frequency compensation required | Internal 30 pF Miller capacitor ensures unity-gain stability without added components or layout risk |
| Large input voltage range | ±12 V common-mode range allows direct interfacing with sensors and DACs operating near supply rails |
| Short-circuit protection | Current-limited output stage prevents latch-up or thermal runaway during accidental shorts |
| No latch-up | Bipolar process and isolation structure eliminate destructive parasitic SCR conduction under overvoltage |
| Same pin configuration as UA709 | Enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs without PCB rework or schematic revision |
Applications
| Instrumentation Amplifier Front-End | DC Motor Speed Controller |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Amplifying low-level thermocouple or strain gauge signals in programmable logic controller (PLC) analog input modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configured as non-inverting amplifier with gain ≥100, providing DC-coupled signal conditioning before ADC sampling. Use Value: Input offset voltage ≤6 mV and CMRR ≥70 dB minimize drift-induced measurement error across industrial temperature ranges. |
Use Scenario: Generating PWM-comparable analog reference voltage for H-bridge gate drivers in 24 V DC motor drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Used as error amplifier in closed-loop speed regulation, comparing tachometer feedback to setpoint. Use Value: Internal compensation and ±10 V output swing ensure stable loop response without oscillation under varying motor load inertia. |
| Active Low-Pass Filter (1 kHz) | Summing Amplifier for Sensor Fusion |
Use Scenario: Anti-aliasing filtering of vibration sensor outputs prior to microcontroller ADC acquisition in predictive maintenance edge nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Second-order Sallen-Key topology with unity-gain buffer output stage. Use Value: 0.5 V/μs slew rate and 1 MHz GBW support clean 1 kHz cutoff with <5% passband ripple and monotonic roll-off. |
Use Scenario: Combining outputs from multiple gas concentration sensors (CO, NO₂, VOC) into weighted analog sum for air quality index calculation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverting summing configuration with precision resistor network and buffered output. Use Value: High input impedance (>300 kΩ) prevents cross-talk between sensor channels; 200 V/mV gain maintains resolution across 0–3 V input range. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar general-purpose op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM741CDR | Higher input bias current (80–500 nA), wider offset voltage range (3–15 mV), same SO-8 footprint | Less suitable for high-impedance sensor interfaces; acceptable for power supply monitoring or basic comparators | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision requirements and LM741 design heritage is preferred |
| TL081CD | JFET input (50 pA bias current), higher slew rate (13 V/μs), no internal compensation (requires external capacitor) | Requires external compensation network; better for wideband AC-coupled applications but increases BOM count | Choose for audio preamps or fast integrators where input impedance >10⁹ Ω and bandwidth >100 kHz is needed |
Compared with LM741CDR and TL081CD, UA741ID offers balanced performance: lower input bias than LM741, built-in stability unlike TL081, and guaranteed -40°C to +105°C operation-making it optimal for industrial analog signal chains requiring reliability without design complexity.

FAQ
Can UA741ID operate from a single supply?
Yes, UA741ID can operate from a single supply (e.g., +10 V and GND) by biasing the inputs within the common-mode range (0 V to +3 V typical). Output swing remains limited to ~1.5 V below VCC and ~1 V above GND. External level-shifting or rail-splitting networks may be required for true ground-referenced signals.
What is the purpose of pins 1 and 5 (offset null)?
Pins 1 and 5 form a two-terminal interface for connecting a 10 kΩ potentiometer to nullify input offset voltage. The wiper connects to VCC− (pin 4), and each end connects to pins 1 and 5. This adjustment reduces DC error in precision integrators and low-gain amplifiers where offset contributes significantly to output drift.
Does UA741ID require external compensation capacitors?
No. UA741ID includes an internal 30 pF Miller compensation capacitor, making it unity-gain stable without external components. This eliminates layout sensitivity and component count in standard inverting/non-inverting configurations, distinguishing it from uncompensated op-amps like TL081.
How does UA741ID differ from UA741CD?
UA741ID is rated for -40°C to +105°C operation and uses SO-8 packaging, while UA741CD is specified for 0°C to +70°C and also uses SO-8. Both share identical electrical characteristics and pinout, but UA741ID is qualified for extended-temperature industrial environments, including factory automation and outdoor control cabinets.
