Product details
Overview
LM2902N/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a low-power, quad operational amplifier optimized for single-supply operation from 3 V to 26 V, featuring 1 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 100 dB DC open-loop gain, 700 μA typical supply current per amplifier, and rail-to-rail input common-mode range including ground - widely used in industrial sensor signal conditioning and battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LM2902N/NOPB datasheet, LM2902N/NOPB pinout, LM2902N/NOPB application, or LM2902N/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), package mapping (PDIP-14/SOIC-14/TSSOP-14), and real-world design context for transducer amplification, DC gain blocks, and single-supply analog interface circuits.
Technical Context
The LM2902N/NOPB implements a PNP-input stage enabling true ground-sensing capability and output swing down to 0 V (with load-dependent headroom), while maintaining temperature-compensated input bias current (45 nA typ) and offset voltage (2 mV typ). Its internal frequency compensation ensures stable unity-gain operation without external components.
It supports dual-supply operation (±1.5 V to ±16 V) but is primarily deployed in single-rail systems where input signals extend to ground and output must drive logic-compatible levels. The device exhibits 50–100 V/mV large-signal voltage gain and 50–70 dB common-mode rejection over its full operating range, with output sourcing/sinking capability up to 40 mA short-circuit current.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM324N/NOPB | Wider temperature range (0°C to +70°C vs. −40°C to +85°C); higher input offset voltage (7 mV max vs. 2 mV max); same pinout and package options. | Optimized for commercial-grade consumer electronics; not rated for extended industrial temperature operation. | Select LM324N/NOPB only for cost-sensitive, ambient-temperature applications where extended temp range is unnecessary. |
| TLV2464CDR | Rail-to-rail input/output; lower supply current (550 μA per amp); higher GBW (6.4 MHz); SOIC-14 only; requires 2.7–6 V supply. | Suitable for high-precision, low-voltage battery systems (e.g., 3.3 V IoT sensors); incompatible with >6 V supplies or legacy 5 V designs requiring 26 V tolerance. | Choose TLV2464CDR when rail-to-rail performance and sub-1 mA total current are critical, and supply voltage remains ≤6 V. |
Compared with LM324N/NOPB and TLV2464CDR, LM2902N/NOPB uniquely balances extended industrial temperature operation, 3–26 V supply flexibility, ground-sensing capability, and proven reliability in legacy and new industrial designs - making it the preferred choice for robust single-supply analog signal chains where voltage range and environmental resilience are primary constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for LM2902N/NOPB?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for LM2902N/NOPB is 32 V, but the recommended operating range is 3 V to 26 V for single-supply use. Exceeding 26 V may violate specified electrical characteristics and reduce reliability. This limit is defined in the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions table and applies across the full −40°C to +85°C junction temperature range. LM2902N/NOPB maintains stable operation at 26 V with verified parameters including input offset, gain, and output swing.
Does LM2902N/NOPB support rail-to-rail output?
LM2902N/NOPB does not provide true rail-to-rail output: its output swings from 0 V to V+ −1.5 V (for RL ≥2 kΩ) at 25°C. It achieves ground-referenced output (0 V minimum) but cannot reach the positive rail. This behavior is inherent to its PNP-input, NPN-output stage architecture. For applications requiring V+ −0.1 V output swing, LM2902N/NOPB is unsuitable; alternatives like TLV2464CDR should be evaluated. LM2902N/NOPB's 0 V output capability remains critical for interfacing with grounded loads and logic inputs.
Can LM2902N/NOPB operate with a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, LM2902N/NOPB is fully specified to operate from 3 V to 26 V single supply, including 3.3 V systems. At 3.3 V, it maintains functional input common-mode range (0 V to 1.8 V), usable gain (≥25 V/mV), and output swing (0 V to ~1.8 V). However, slew rate and bandwidth decrease versus 5 V operation, and output current capability reduces proportionally. Verified performance at 3.3 V is documented in TI's LM2902-N Electrical Characteristics tables, confirming suitability for low-voltage industrial and battery-powered applications where 3.3 V rails are standard.
What is the input bias current specification for LM2902N/NOPB?
The input bias current for LM2902N/NOPB is 45 nA typical and 250 nA maximum at 25°C, with temperature compensation ensuring stability across −40°C to +85°C. This value reflects current flowing *out* of the PNP input terminals due to base current requirements. It is independent of supply voltage and remains constant across the operating range, enabling predictable resistor selection in high-impedance sensor interfaces. The 45 nA typ value is confirmed in Section 6.6 of the SNOSC16D datasheet and applies identically across all four amplifiers in the LM2902N/NOPB package.
Is LM2902N/NOPB pin-compatible with LM324N/NOPB?
Yes, LM2902N/NOPB is pin-compatible with LM324N/NOPB in all shared packages (PDIP-14, SOIC-14, TSSOP-14): both share identical pin numbering, function mapping, and footprint dimensions. However, they differ in temperature rating (LM2902N/NOPB: −40°C to +85°C; LM324N/NOPB: 0°C to +70°C), input offset voltage (2 mV vs. 7 mV max), and supply voltage upper limit (26 V vs. 32 V absolute max). Substitution is electrically safe but requires validation of thermal and precision requirements in the target application. LM2902N/NOPB retains full functionality when dropped into LM324N/NOPB layouts.
