12 MHz GBW in a SOT-23-5 — what it buys you
The STMicroelectronics TS461CLT is a single-channel general-purpose op amp in a SOT-23-5 package, offering a 12 MHz gain-bandwidth product and a 4 V/µs slew rate. The 200 nA input bias current and 1 mV input offset are typical for this class — adequate for non-critical signal conditioning, ADC buffering, or active filtering in the audio band. The commercial temperature grade (-20°C to 70°C) suits indoor equipment, office gear, or benchtop instrumentation, not automotive or extended-industrial environments.
SOT-23-5 — rework and layout
The SOT-23-5 (SC-74A) footprint is a 5-pin, 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm body with 0.95 mm pitch. It's a hand-solderable package — hot air at 300°C for 10 seconds lifts it clean if you pre-tin the pads. The small thermal mass means it reaches reflow temperature fast, so watch the ramp rate to avoid tombstoning. No exposed pad, so all dissipation goes through the leads — at 2 mA supply current that's not a concern.
