Product Overview

The OPA855 is a Texas Instruments wideband low-noise bipolar-input operational amplifier for Signal_Chain designs that require high bandwidth, fast settling, and low input voltage noise. It has an 8 GHz gain bandwidth product and is decompensated for stable operation at gains of 7 V/V and above. With 2.5 GHz typical small-signal bandwidth, 850 MHz typical large-signal bandwidth, and 200 MHz typical 0.1-dB flatness bandwidth, it fits high-speed gain and measurement paths.

Dynamic performance includes 0.98 nV/sqrt(Hz) input voltage noise at 1 MHz, 2.5 pA/sqrt(Hz) typical input-referred current noise, 2750 V/us slew rate for a 2 V output step, 0.17 ns rise and fall times for a 100 mV step, and 2.3 ns settling to 0.1% for a 2 V step. Harmonic distortion is specified at 10 MHz and 100 MHz with 2 VPP output.

The device is offered in an 8-pin DSG WSON package and as bare die. Package and assembly data include a 2 mm x 2 mm WSON body, thermal pad connection to VS-, 80.1°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance, and bare-die backside electrically connected to VS-.
