Product details
Overview
LM2904YST from STMicroelectronics is a dual, low-power operational amplifier optimized for automotive-grade operation (AEC-Q100 qualified), featuring rail-to-rail input (including negative rail) and output swing to 0 V on single supply, 1.1 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 100 dB open-loop gain, and 20 nA input bias current. It enables transducer signal conditioning and DC gain blocks in engine control units, battery management systems, and industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LM2904YST datasheet, LM2904YST pinout, LM2904YST application, or LM2904YST equivalent, key selection criteria include its -40 °C to +125 °C operating range, MiniSO8 wettable-flank-compatible footprint, input common-mode range extending to ground, and guaranteed 1.5 V headroom from positive rail at full output swing.
Technical Context
This dual op-amp uses PNP input-stage topology enabling input voltage range down to VCC−, with internal frequency compensation ensuring stable unity-gain operation. Its architecture supports single-supply operation from 3 V to 30 V while maintaining consistent 0.7–1.2 mA supply current across voltage and temperature.
The device implements enhanced ESD protection (2 kV HBM), thermal shutdown, and output short-circuit robustness up to 40 mA per channel. Input offset voltage is trimmed to 1–2 mV (typ.) for LM2904A-grade performance, and slew rate is specified at 0.3–0.6 V/µs under 15 V supply with 2 kΩ load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 30 V - Enables direct interface with 5 V logic rails and 24 V industrial buses without level-shifting. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1.1 MHz - Supports closed-loop gains up to ~100 at 10 kHz for sensor amplification and filtering. |
| Input Offset Voltage (25 °C) | 1–2 mV (LM2904A grade) - Ensures ≤20 mV error in 10× non-inverting DC gain stages at room temperature. |
| Input Bias Current | 20 nA - Allows use with high-impedance sources (e.g., thermistors, pH electrodes) without significant voltage drop. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | VCC− to (VCC+ − 2 V) - Permits direct sensing of signals referenced to ground in single-supply systems. |
| Output Voltage Swing | 0 V to (VCC+ − 1.5 V) - Delivers full dynamic range into loads tied to ground, critical for ADC driver stages. |
| Quiescent Current per Amp | 0.35–0.6 mA - Enables dual-channel amplification in power-constrained automotive modules (<1.2 mA total). |
Pinout & Package
LM2904YST is supplied in MiniSO8 package (3.0 mm × 4.9 mm, 1.27 mm pitch), AEC-Q100 qualified, with wettable flank capability for automated optical solder-joint inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Out1 | Amplifier 1 output | Drives external load; capable of sourcing/sinking ≥20 mA; swings 0 V to (VCC+ − 1.5 V). |
| 2 - In1− | Inverting input of Amp1 | Differential pair emitter node; accepts input down to VCC−; biased by 20 nA PNP input stage. |
| 3 - In1+ | Non-inverting input of Amp1 | Differential pair base node; shares same input voltage range and bias current as In1−. |
| 4 - VCC− | Negative supply / ground reference | Return path for both amplifiers; input common-mode extends to this pin; must be low-impedance. |
| 5 - In2+ | Non-inverting input of Amp2 | Independent of Amp1 inputs; identical electrical behavior; enables dual-channel signal processing. |
| 6 - In2− | Inverting input of Amp2 | Matches In1− characteristics; supports differential or single-ended configurations per channel. |
| 7 - Out2 | Amplifier 2 output | Electrically isolated from Out1; same drive strength and swing limits as Out1. |
| 8 - VCC+ | Positive supply | Single-supply rail (3–30 V); quiescent current independent of voltage magnitude; decoupling required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input (down to VCC−) | Enables direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors (e.g., thermocouples, strain gauges) without level shifters. |
| Output swing to 0 V | Permits full-scale driving of single-supply ADCs (e.g., SAR or sigma-delta) without negative supply or clamping diodes. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive ambient temperatures (−40 °C to +125 °C) and lifetime reliability in engine bay applications. |
| Enhanced ESD protection (2 kV HBM) | Reduces field failure risk during PCB handling and in-vehicle ESD events without external protection components. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2904DT | SO8 package, commercial temperature range (−40 °C to +105 °C), no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Suitable for non-automotive industrial controls where extended temperature and automotive reliability are not required. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification needs and SO8 footprint is preferred. |
| TSB572IST | Lower quiescent current (380 µA vs. 700 µA), higher GBP (2.5 MHz), but reduced output drive (±25 mA). | Better suited for ultra-low-power portable instrumentation; less ideal for driving heavy capacitive loads or low-Z sensors. | Choose for battery-powered sensor nodes needing faster settling and lower power, accepting reduced output current. |
Compared with LM2904DT, LM2904YST provides guaranteed automotive-grade reliability and wider temperature margin; compared with TSB572IST, it trades bandwidth and quiescent current for higher output drive and proven robustness in noisy automotive power domains.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for LM2904YST?
The maximum junction temperature is 150 °C, validated under AEC-Q100 stress testing. Thermal resistance junction-to-ambient (RthJA) is 190 °C/W for the MiniSO8 package, requiring appropriate PCB copper area and airflow to maintain safe operation at full 30 V supply and 125 °C ambient.
Can LM2904YST drive a 10 kΩ load to rail with 5 V supply?
Yes - with VCC+ = 5 V, the output swings to 0 V and up to 3.5 V (VCC+ − 1.5 V) into 10 kΩ, confirmed by VOL ≤ 20 mV and VOH ≥ 3.4 V in datasheet Table 3. This meets rail-to-rail output requirements for driving 5 V ADC references and comparators.
Does LM2904YST require external compensation capacitors?
No - internal frequency compensation ensures unity-gain stability across all operating conditions. The device is characterized for stable operation in inverting, non-inverting, and voltage-follower configurations without added external components, simplifying layout and reducing BOM count.
How does the input bias current behave over temperature?
Input bias current remains ≤200 nA across −40 °C to +125 °C (max), with typical value of 20 nA at 25 °C. Its PNP-input architecture causes bias current to flow *out* of the inputs, making it stable and predictable - unlike CMOS op-amps - which simplifies high-impedance source interfacing.
