Product details
Overview
LM2904QDR from Texas Instruments is a dual operational amplifier optimized for industrial and automotive applications requiring wide supply range (3V to 30V), low quiescent current (300 µA per channel), and rail-to-rail input capability including ground-sensing. It delivers 0.7 MHz gain-bandwidth product, ±3 mV max input offset voltage at 25°C, and operates across –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature - enabling use in motor control feedback loops, power supply monitoring, and sensor signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LM2904QDR datasheet, LM2904QDR pinout, LM2904QDR application, or LM2904QDR equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (SOIC-8), confirmed electrical specifications per TI SLOS068AB Rev. October 2024, thermal metrics (RθJA = 124.7°C/W), ESD rating (±500 V HBM), and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and parametric differences.
Technical Context
The LM2904QDR implements a bipolar-input, internally compensated dual op-amp architecture with common-mode input voltage range extending to the negative rail - supporting single-supply operation and direct sensing of signals near ground. Its unity-gain stable design eliminates external compensation requirements in standard configurations.
It features matched amplifier pairs with typical open-loop gain of 100 V/mV, 0.3 V/µs slew rate, and output swing within 20 mV of the negative rail at 1 mA load - enabling accurate low-voltage signal amplification in cost-sensitive embedded systems without rail-splitting circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 30 V - supports single-supply operation in 5 V, 12 V, and 24 V industrial systems without level-shifting. |
| Input Offset Voltage (max, 25°C) | ±3 mV - enables accurate DC-coupled amplification of low-level sensor outputs (e.g., thermistor, RTD) without trimming. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 0.7 MHz - sufficient for closed-loop bandwidths up to ~100 kHz in unity-gain buffers or non-inverting amplifiers. |
| Quiescent Current (per channel) | 350 µA (typ) - allows battery-powered or energy-constrained designs to maintain dual-channel analog functionality with minimal standby draw. |
| Operating Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial motor drives, and outdoor power electronics environments. |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±500 V - meets basic IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 robustness for board-level handling and system integration. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Includes V– (ground) - permits direct interface with 0–5 V sensors, current-sense resistors tied to ground, and single-ended transducer outputs. |
Pinout & Package
LM2904QDR is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package measuring 4.9 mm × 6.0 mm, with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and gull-wing leads. Thermal resistance RθJA = 124.7°C/W enables reliable operation at up to 750 mW dissipation in still-air conditions.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT1) | Amplifier 1 output | Drives feedback networks or downstream stages; capable of sourcing/sinking ±20 mA into resistive loads. |
| 2 (IN1–) | Amplifier 1 inverting input | Accepts feedback signal or inverted input; high common-mode rejection supports precision differential measurement. |
| 3 (IN1+) | Amplifier 1 non-inverting input | Receives reference or sensor signal; rail-to-rail input enables ground-referenced signal acquisition. |
| 4 (V–) | Negative supply / ground | Reference node for both amplifiers; must be connected directly to PCB ground plane for noise immunity. |
| 5 (IN2+) | Amplifier 2 non-inverting input | Independent signal path for second channel; identical electrical characteristics to Pin 3. |
| 6 (IN2–) | Amplifier 2 inverting input | Supports independent feedback configuration; no crosstalk between channels below –80 dB at 1 kHz. |
| 7 (OUT2) | Amplifier 2 output | Provides second analog channel without external components; matches OUT1 in drive strength and settling behavior. |
| 8 (V+) | Positive supply | Accepts 3–30 V DC; internal regulation ensures stable biasing across full supply range and temperature. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input (includes ground) | Enables direct connection to ground-referenced current-sense resistors and 0–V sensor outputs without level-shifting. |
| Low input bias current (20 nA typ) | Minimizes error in high-impedance source applications such as photodiode transimpedance amplifiers or pH probe interfaces. |
| Unity-gain stable | Eliminates need for external compensation capacitors in buffer, follower, or gain-of-1 configurations - reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| High CMRR (70 dB min) | Rejects noise coupled onto shared supply or ground lines in noisy industrial environments like motor drives and inverters. |
| Output short-circuit protection | Withstands indefinite short to ground or supply rails at ≤15 V - improves system reliability during fault conditions. |

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for LM2904QDR?
The LM2904QDR supports a maximum supply voltage of 30 V (V+ – V–). This is confirmed in Section 5.3 "Recommended Operating Conditions" of the TI SLOS068AB datasheet, where VS(max) = 30 V applies specifically to LM2904, LM2904B, and LM2904QDR variants. Exceeding this may cause permanent damage.
Does LM2904QDR support rail-to-rail input?
Yes, LM2904QDR supports rail-to-rail input with common-mode voltage range extending to the negative supply rail (V–). As specified in Table 4-1 and Section 5.3 of the datasheet, VCM = V– to (V+ – 1.5 V) at 3–30 V supply, enabling direct sensing of ground-referenced signals - a key feature distinguishing LM2904QDR from earlier LM358-family parts.
What is the input offset voltage specification for LM2904QDR?
The LM2904QDR has a maximum input offset voltage of ±3 mV at 25°C, as stated in Section 5.8 "Electrical Characteristics: LM2904, LM2904V" of the TI SLOS068AB datasheet. This value holds across the full operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C, with worst-case drift of ±10 µV/°C.
Is LM2904QDR pin-compatible with LM2904DR?
Yes, LM2904QDR and LM2904DR share identical SOIC-8 (D) package dimensions, pinout, and electrical interface. Both follow the standard LM2904 pin configuration shown in Figure 4-1 and Table 4-1 of the datasheet - making LM2904QDR a direct drop-in replacement where automotive qualification is required.
What thermal metrics apply to LM2904QDR in SOIC-8 package?
For the SOIC-8 (D) package, LM2904QDR has RθJA = 124.7°C/W, RθJC(top) = 66.9°C/W, and RθJB = 67.9°C/W, per Section 5.4 "Thermal Information" in the TI SLOS068AB datasheet. These values assume JEDEC-standard PCB layout with 1 in² copper pad and 2 oz copper weight.
