OPA551UA from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | V- | power_in | Negative (lowest) power supply. Operating supply range ±4 V to ±30 V (8 V to 60 V between rails). Pins 1, 4, and 5 are internally connected for improved thermal performance; pin 4 must carry the primary V- supply current, pins 1 and 5 should be connected to a thermal mass rather than used as feedthroughs to V-. |
| 2 | -IN | input | Inverting op-amp input. Common-mode range (V-)+2.5 V to (V+)-2.5 V; input bias current ±20 pA typ (±100 pA max). Internal clamp diodes protect against voltages beyond the rails; external input current must be limited to 5 mA. |
| 3 | +IN | input | Noninverting op-amp input. Common-mode range (V-)+2.5 V to (V+)-2.5 V; input bias current ±20 pA typ. Internal clamp diodes protect against voltages beyond the rails; external input current must be limited to 5 mA. |
| 4 | V- | power_in | Negative (lowest) power supply - primary current carrier for V-. Operating supply range ±4 V to ±30 V (8 V to 60 V total between rails). Bypass with 0.1 µF (and 10 µF) capacitor near the pin. |
| 5 | V- | power_in | Negative (lowest) power supply. Internally tied to pins 1 and 4 for improved thermal performance. Should be connected to a thermal mass rather than used as a PCB feedthrough for V-. |
| 6 | Out | output | Amplifier output. Swings to within ~2 V of the rails at 10 mA and ~3 V of the rails at 200 mA. Continuous output current up to ±200 mA; short-circuit current limited to approximately ±380 mA. Stable driving capacitive loads (see Figure 19 for allowed CL vs. gain). |
| 7 | V+ | power_in | Positive (highest) power supply. Operating supply range ±4 V to ±30 V (8 V to 60 V total between rails). Quiescent current ±7 mA typ (±8.5 mA max). Bypass with 0.1 µF (and 10 µF) capacitor near the pin. |
| 8 | Flag | output | Thermal-shutdown indicator (current-source output). Sources ~50 nA (1 µA max) during normal operation and 80-160 µA (120 µA typ) when the die exceeds ~160 °C and enters thermal shutdown (resets at ~140 °C). Compliance range V- to (V+)-1.5 V; an external pull-down resistor converts the current to a logic-level signal. |
