Product details
Overview
LM324BAIPWR from Texas Instruments is a quad operational amplifier in 14-pin TSSOP package, designed for cost-sensitive industrial and consumer applications. It delivers ±2 mV max input offset voltage (25°C), 3V–36V supply range, 1.2 MHz gain-bandwidth product, and rail-to-rail input common-mode range extending to V–. It serves as a precision signal conditioning and sensor interface IC in power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the LM324BAIPWR datasheet, LM324BAIPWR pinout, LM324BAIPWR application, or LM324BAIPWR equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, validated pin functions, real-world use cases in AC inverters and multi-function printers, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented technical and application differences.
Technical Context
The LM324BAIPWR implements four independent high-voltage op-amps in a single monolithic silicon die, each featuring unity-gain stability, integrated EMI/RF filtering, and input stage biasing that enables operation with inputs at V–. Its architecture supports single-supply operation down to 3V while maintaining 240 µA typical quiescent current per amplifier across –40°C to +125°C.
It uses a bipolar input stage with low input bias current (≤35 nA max at 25°C) and achieves 70–80 dB common-mode rejection over its full operating temperature range. The output stage drives capacitive loads up to 100 pF and delivers ±30 mA short-circuit current without latch-up under specified conditions.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3V to 36V - supports wide-input industrial power rails and battery-backed systems without external regulation |
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | ±2 mV at 25°C - enables accurate DC-coupled amplification in sensor front-ends and current-sense circuits |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1.2 MHz - sufficient for closed-loop control of switching power supplies up to ~100 kHz |
| Quiescent Current (per amp) | 240 µA typical at –40°C to +125°C - allows low-power operation in always-on monitoring subsystems |
| Common-Mode Input Range | V– to (V+) – 1.5V - permits direct interfacing with ground-referenced transducers and single-supply ADC drivers |
| Output Swing (V– side) | 5–20 mV above V– at 1 mA load - ensures usable headroom for low-voltage logic-level signal generation |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | 2 kV - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 requirements for board-level robustness in factory environments |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM324BIPWR | ±3 mV max input offset voltage (vs. ±2 mV); same 3V–36V supply and 1.2 MHz GBW | Suitable where ±3 mV offset is acceptable (e.g., non-precision threshold detection) | Select LM324BIPWR for cost-optimized designs where tighter offset is not required |
| LM2902BAIPWR | Identical offset (±2 mV), but rated for –40°C to +125°C extended temp range (vs. –40°C to +85°C) | Required for automotive engine bay or industrial outdoor enclosures exceeding 85°C ambient | Choose LM2902BAIPWR when full automotive-grade temperature compliance is mandatory |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the LM324BAIPWR?
The LM324BAIPWR is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This specification is confirmed in Section 6.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) of the official Texas Instruments datasheet SLOS066AE, where LM324Bx devices-including LM324BAIPWR-are explicitly assigned the 85°C upper limit. Exceeding this temperature may degrade offset voltage drift and output drive capability.
Does the LM324BAIPWR support single-supply operation?
Yes, the LM324BAIPWR supports true single-supply operation with its common-mode input voltage range extending to V– (ground). As specified in Table 6-5, VCM = V– is valid across the full 3V–36V supply range. This allows direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors and eliminates the need for dual-rail supplies in applications like battery-powered monitors and PC motherboard voltage supervisors.
What is the output drive capability of the LM324BAIPWR?
The LM324BAIPWR can source up to –30 mA and sink up to +20 mA per amplifier under standard test conditions (VS = 15V). At 5V supply and –40°C to +85°C, it maintains ≥5 mA sink capability near the negative rail and ≥1.4 V swing from the positive rail at 1 mA load. These values are measured per Section 6.5 Electrical Characteristics and enable direct driving of LEDs, small relays, or logic inputs without external buffers.
Is the LM324BAIPWR pin-compatible with older LM324 variants?
Yes, the LM324BAIPWR uses the industry-standard 14-pin TSSOP (PW) footprint and identical pinout to LM324IPWR, LM324AIPWR, and LM324BIPWR. Pin functions-including NC pins at positions 1, 5, 7, and 11-are fully aligned per Figure 5-1 and Table 5-1 of the TI datasheet. This enables drop-in replacement without layout changes in existing designs.
What packaging and thermal characteristics define the LM324BAIPWR?
The LM324BAIPWR is supplied in a 14-pin TSSOP (PW) package measuring 5 mm × 6.4 mm with 0.65 mm lead pitch. Its thermal resistance is RθJA = 124.7°C/W (JEDEC High-K board), enabling 350 mW maximum power dissipation at 85°C ambient. The package includes an exposed thermal pad that must be soldered to a copper pour for optimal heat transfer in high-density layouts.
