Product details
Overview
LM224KADRG4 from Texas Instruments is a quad operational amplifier in SOIC-14 package, designed for cost-sensitive industrial and consumer applications. It delivers rail-to-rail input common-mode range (including V–), ±3 mV max input offset voltage at 25°C, 1.2 MHz gain-bandwidth product, and operates from 3V to 30V single-supply or ±15V dual-supply - enabling use in power supply monitoring, sensor signal conditioning, and motor control feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the LM224KADRG4 datasheet, LM224KADRG4 pinout, LM224KADRG4 application, or LM224KADRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed 3 mV offset (vs. 7 mV for standard LM324), –25°C to +85°C operating temperature range, SOIC-14 thermal resistance (RθJA = 99.3°C/W), and compatibility with legacy LM224/LM324 PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LM224KADRG4 belongs to the LMx24 family of high-voltage op amps with unity-gain stability and internal frequency compensation. Its input stage supports common-mode voltages down to the negative rail, and output can swing within 1.5 V of the positive rail and 20 mV of the negative rail under 1 mA load - critical for single-supply precision amplification.
It features low quiescent current (1.2 mA typical for all four amplifiers), integrated EMI/RF filtering, and 500 V HBM ESD rating. Unlike B-version variants, it does not include enhanced ESD (2 kV) or improved offset drift, aligning with legacy LM224K specifications per TI SLOS066AE Rev. SEPTEMBER 2025.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM224KDR | Same electrical specs, identical SOIC-14 package, but lacks G4 suffix (RoHS-compliant plating) | No functional difference; G4 denotes green (lead-free) finish per JEDEC J-STD-609 | Select LM224KDR only if RoHS exemption applies; LM224KADRG4 is preferred for new designs requiring full compliance. |
| LM324ADR | 0°C to +70°C temp range (vs. –25°C to +85°C), 7 mV max offset (vs. 3 mV), same SOIC-14 package | Limited to commercial-grade applications; unsuitable for extended-temperature industrial environments | Choose LM324ADR only for cost-driven consumer products where ambient stays below 70°C and higher offset is acceptable. |
Compared with LM224KDR, LM224KADRG4 adds mandatory lead-free finish and full RoHS traceability; compared with LM324ADR, it extends temperature range by 25°C and halves offset voltage - directly improving accuracy in sensor and power monitoring circuits.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for LM224KADRG4?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for LM224KADRG4 is 32 V, but the recommended operating range is 3 V to 30 V for single-supply operation (or ±15 V dual-supply). Exceeding 30 V risks exceeding safe power dissipation limits in SOIC-14 packaging, especially above 85°C ambient. TI specifies 30 V as the upper limit for reliable long-term operation per SLOS066AE Section 6.1.
Does LM224KADRG4 support rail-to-rail output swing?
No, LM224KADRG4 does not provide rail-to-rail output swing. Its output swings to within 1.5 V of V+ and 20 mV of V– at 1 mA load. At lighter loads (e.g., 50 µA), it reaches within 1.35 V of V+ and 100 mV of V–. This limited swing is inherent to its bipolar input/output architecture and is documented in Section 6.7 of the TI datasheet for LM224K devices.
Is LM224KADRG4 pin-compatible with LM324ADR?
Yes, LM224KADRG4 is pin-compatible with LM324ADR - both use SOIC-14 (D package) with identical pinout per TI's Pin Configuration and Functions table (Figure 5-1). However, LM224KADRG4 offers tighter offset (±3 mV vs. ±7 mV) and extended temperature range (–25°C to +85°C vs. 0°C to +70°C), making it a functional upgrade without layout changes.
What is the input bias current specification for LM224KADRG4?
The input bias current for LM224KADRG4 is –20 nA to –250 nA at 25°C (typical –150 nA), with full-range max of –500 nA across –25°C to +85°C. This value is confirmed in Table 6.7 of TI SLOS066AE for LM224K devices. It reflects the bipolar transistor input stage and impacts high-impedance source applications - e.g., >1 MΩ sensor bridges require offset compensation.
Can LM224KADRG4 be used in single-supply configurations?
Yes, LM224KADRG4 is explicitly designed for single-supply operation. Its input common-mode range includes V– (ground), and output can swing close to V– (20 mV at 1 mA), enabling direct interface with 0 V referenced sensors and microcontroller ADCs. TI recommends using V– as system ground and VCC+ as the positive rail, with proper decoupling at Pin 4.
