THS3096D Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The THS3096D is a dual-channel current feedback amplifier manufactured by Texas Instruments, housed in a 14-SOIC surface mount package. This device is classified as Last Time Buy, indicating discontinued production with limited remaining inventory. The THS3096D delivers high-speed amplification with a 5700V/µs slew rate and 145 MHz gain bandwidth product, suitable for applications requiring fast transient response and wide bandwidth performance. Alternative equivalent parts are necessary due to product status transition and to ensure long-term design continuity and supply chain reliability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the THS3096D is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Amplifier Type: Current Feedback architecture
• Number of Circuits: Dual-channel configuration (2 circuits)
• Slew Rate: 5700V/µs minimum
• Gain Bandwidth Product: 145 MHz minimum
• -3dB Bandwidth: 160 MHz minimum
• Current - Input Bias: 4 µA maximum
• Voltage - Input Offset: 900 µV maximum
• Current - Supply: 9.5mA per channel maximum
• Current - Output / Channel: 280 mA minimum
• Voltage - Supply Span: 10V to 30V range
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
• RoHS3 Compliance: Required
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

Substitute Parts Identified:

1. THS3096PWP — Direct functional equivalent with identical electrical specifications. Differs only in package format (14-HTSSOP vs. 14-SOIC) and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 2 vs. MSL 1). Active product status ensures ongoing availability.

2. THS3095DDAR — Partial equivalent with single-channel configuration (1 circuit vs. 2 circuits). Exceeds electrical performance in slew rate (7300V/µs) and -3dB bandwidth (235 MHz). Suitable only for applications requiring single-channel amplification. Different package (8-PowerSOIC).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

THS3096PWP is the primary recommended substitute for the THS3096D. Both devices share identical electrical specifications, dual-channel configuration, and ROHS3 compliance. The THS3096PWP is in Active product status, ensuring sustained supply chain availability. The package transition from 14-SOIC to 14-HTSSOP requires PCB layout modification due to increased width (4.40mm vs. 3.90mm). The moisture sensitivity level increase from MSL 1 to MSL 2 requires adherence to a 1-year floor life storage protocol. This substitution is suitable for new designs and production transitions.

THS3095DDAR is a secondary option applicable only to applications requiring single-channel amplification. This device cannot serve as a direct replacement for dual-channel designs due to its single-circuit configuration. The THS3095DDAR offers superior performance metrics (7300V/µs slew rate, 235 MHz bandwidth) and is available in higher inventory quantities. The 8-PowerSOIC package requires significant PCB redesign. This substitution is not recommended for existing THS3096D designs without circuit topology modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can THS3096PWP directly replace THS3096D without PCB modification?

A: No. While electrical specifications are identical, the package format differs. THS3096PWP uses 14-HTSSOP (4.40mm width) versus THS3096D's 14-SOIC (3.90mm width). PCB footprint and layout must be updated accordingly.

Q: Is THS3095DDAR suitable as a drop-in replacement for THS3096D?

A: No. THS3095DDAR contains a single amplifier circuit, while THS3096D contains two circuits. Applications requiring dual-channel amplification cannot use THS3095DDAR without circuit redesign.

Q: What is the impact of MSL 2 rating on THS3096PWP versus MSL 1 on THS3096D?

A: MSL 2 requires floor life management with a maximum 1-year storage period from manufacturing date before soldering. MSL 1 has unlimited floor life. THS3096PWP requires stricter inventory control and handling protocols.

Q: Are all three devices RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. THS3096D, THS3096PWP, and THS3095DDAR are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: Why is THS3096D classified as Last Time Buy?

A: Last Time Buy status indicates Texas Instruments has discontinued this product line. Existing inventory is limited to 1111 pieces. THS3096PWP (Active status, 748 pieces) and THS3095DDAR (Active status, 60200 pieces) represent the ongoing product alternatives.

Q: Can supply voltage range differ between substitutes?

A: No. All three devices operate within the identical 10V to 30V supply span range.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Current feedback amplifier type, input bias current (4 µA), input offset voltage (900 µV), supply current per channel (9.5mA), and output current per channel (280 mA) must remain constant across all substitutes.
