Product details
Overview
LM358BPX from Texas Instruments is a dual, low-power operational amplifier optimized for single-supply operation (3 V to 32 V), featuring 1 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 100 dB open-loop gain, and rail-to-ground input/output capability. It delivers 500 μA supply current per amplifier and supports precision signal conditioning in battery-powered sensor interfaces and industrial analog front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LM358BPX datasheet, LM358BPX pinout, LM358BPX application, or LM358BPX equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (DSBGA-8), confirmed electrical parameters (VOS = 2 mV typ, IB = 45 nA typ), real-world use cases in 4–20 mA transmitters and active filters, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The LM358BPX integrates two independent PNP-input op-amps with internal frequency compensation, enabling stable unity-gain operation without external components. Its input common-mode range includes ground, and output swing extends to within 20 mV of ground at V+ = 5 V - critical for single-supply DC-coupled sensing.
It uses a class-A/class-B hybrid output stage to maintain low quiescent current (0.5 mA typical at 5 V) while sourcing up to 40 mA and sinking up to 20 mA. Input bias current remains temperature-compensated, and differential input voltage tolerance exceeds supply rails without damage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | Single supply: 3 V to 32 V - enables direct interface with 3.3-V and 5-V digital systems without level-shifting. |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 1 MHz (temperature compensated) - supports stable amplification of audio-band and low-speed control signals. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 2 mV (typical at 25°C) - ensures ≤20 mV error in unity-gain buffer applications at room temperature. |
| Supply Current per Amplifier | 500 μA (typical at 5 V) - allows continuous operation in battery-powered devices for >1 year on a 200-mAh cell. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | 0 V to V+ − 1.5 V - permits direct connection of grounded sensors (e.g., thermistors, strain gauges) without biasing resistors. |
| Output Voltage Swing | Within 20 mV of ground and within 2–3 V of V+ (at 10-kΩ load) - enables true single-supply operation with full dynamic range utilization. |
| Large-Signal Voltage Gain | 25 V/mV (min) - guarantees ≥25× closed-loop gain stability under load across operating temperature (0°C to 70°C). |
Pinout & Package
LM358BPX is packaged in an 8-bump DSBGA (1.31 mm × 1.31 mm) with 0.4-mm pitch, optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUTA (Pin 1) | Output, Channel A | Amplified output of first op-amp; capable of sourcing 40 mA / sinking 20 mA into 10-kΩ load. |
| –INA (Pin 2) | Inverting Input, Channel A | Differential input node; accepts signals down to ground; input bias current flows *out* of pin (PNP input stage). |
| +INA (Pin 3) | Non-inverting Input, Channel A | Differential input node; supports common-mode voltages from 0 V to V+ − 1.5 V. |
| GND / V– (Pin 4) | Ground / Negative Supply | Reference node for single-supply operation; serves as return path for both amplifiers' bias and load currents. |
| +INB (Pin 5) | Non-inverting Input, Channel B | Second amplifier's high-impedance input; identical electrical behavior to +INA. |
| –INB (Pin 6) | Inverting Input, Channel B | Second amplifier's differential input; shares same input structure and voltage range as –INA. |
| OUTB (Pin 7) | Output, Channel B | Independent output stage; electrically isolated from OUTA; no crosstalk beyond −120 dB (1–20 kHz). |
| V+ (Pin 8) | Positive Supply | Primary power rail; supplies both amplifiers; current draw scales linearly with number of active channels. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-ground input and output | Enables direct interfacing with 0-V referenced sensors and microcontroller ADCs without external level-shifting circuitry. |
| Temperature-compensated unity-gain crossover | Maintains stable 1-MHz bandwidth across −40°C to +85°C ambient, eliminating need for external compensation in most designs. |
| Low 500-μA supply current per amplifier | Reduces thermal load and extends battery life in portable instrumentation - e.g., handheld multimeters and IoT edge nodes. |
| Input bias current compensation | Stabilizes offset drift over temperature, reducing calibration frequency in precision transducer amplifiers (e.g., load cells). |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LM358BPX implements a dual-stage Sallen-Key low-pass filter (10 Hz cutoff) with unity-gain buffers isolating stages. Use Value: Achieves >40 dB attenuation at 1 kHz while maintaining DC accuracy - enabled by 100 dB open-loop gain and low input bias current. |
| Single-Supply Sensor Signal Conditioning | DC-Coupled Level Shifter |
Use Scenario: Amplifying millivolt-level outputs from bridge-based pressure sensors powered from a shared 5-V rail in automotive cabin air quality modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LM358BPX functions as a non-inverting amplifier (gain = 100) with grounded reference, eliminating need for split supplies. Use Value: Input common-mode range including ground allows direct connection to bridge midpoints; output swing to ground preserves full 0–5 V ADC range. |
Use Scenario: Shifting a ±2.5 V DAC output to 0–5 V range for driving analog actuators in programmable logic controller (PLC) I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LM358BPX acts as a summing amplifier with precision resistor network to add +2.5 V offset to bipolar input. Use Value: Low input offset (2 mV typ) minimizes zero-error; rail-to-rail input enables accurate summing without clamping diodes or external references. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM358DR | SOIC-8 package (4.9 mm × 3.91 mm); identical electrical specs but higher thermal resistance (189°C/W vs. 230°C/W for DSBGA). | Preferred for through-hole prototyping or boards requiring manual rework; less suitable for ultra-dense layouts. | Select LM358DR when board space allows larger footprint and thermal management via copper pour is feasible. |
| LM2904VQDR | Automotive-grade (AEC-Q100 qualified); wider temp range (−40°C to +125°C); slightly higher input offset (max 7 mV vs. 5 mV for LM358BPX). | Required for under-hood automotive sensors; not necessary for commercial/industrial ambient (0°C–70°C). | Choose LM2904VQDR only if AEC-Q100 compliance and extended temperature operation are mandatory. |
Compared with LM358DR and LM2904VQDR, the LM358BPX offers the smallest PCB footprint and lowest thermal resistance among standard-compatibility dual op-amps - making it optimal for space- and thermally constrained consumer and industrial edge devices where automotive qualification is unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for LM358BPX?
The LM358BPX is rated for operation from 0°C to +70°C ambient temperature, consistent with the commercial-grade LM358-N family. This specification is defined in Section 6.3 of the official TI datasheet (SNOSBT3J). Exceeding +70°C may cause parametric shift in input offset voltage and gain accuracy. For extended temperature applications, consider the automotive-qualified LM2904VQDR instead of the LM358BPX.
Does LM358BPX support rail-to-rail output?
The LM358BPX does **not** provide rail-to-rail output swing. Its output can swing to within approximately 20 mV of ground and to within 2–3 V of V+ (depending on load), as specified in Section 6.5 of the TI datasheet. While it achieves true ground-referenced output - a key advantage over older op-amps - it cannot reach the positive rail. For full rail-to-rail output, consider TI's TLV2372 or similar modern alternatives, not the LM358BPX.
Can LM358BPX be used with a 3.3-V supply?
Yes, the LM358BPX is fully specified to operate from 3 V to 32 V single supply, including 3.3 V. At 3.3 V, it maintains 1 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 100 dB open-loop gain, and rail-to-ground input/output functionality. The minimum recommended supply is 3 V per Section 6.3; operation below this risks reduced gain and increased distortion. All performance data in the LM358BPX datasheet applies down to 3 V.
Is LM358BPX pin-compatible with LM358DR?
No - LM358BPX (DSBGA-8) and LM358DR (SOIC-8) share identical pin numbering and function mapping (per Table 5-1 in SNOSBT3J), but their physical footprints are incompatible. The DSBGA-8 package has 0.4-mm ball pitch and 1.31 mm × 1.31 mm body size, while SOIC-8 uses 1.27-mm lead pitch and 4.9 mm × 3.91 mm body. PCB layout must be redesigned to switch between them; no drop-in replacement is possible without mechanical revision.
What is the input bias current of LM358BPX at 25°C?
The LM358BPX exhibits a typical input bias current of 45 nA at 25°C, with a maximum of 250 nA across the full operating temperature range (0°C to +70°C), as stated in Section 6.6 of the TI datasheet. This value reflects the PNP-input architecture and is temperature-compensated - meaning it remains stable over ambient changes, unlike many JFET-input op-amps. This low, stable bias current directly enables high-impedance sensor interfacing without significant voltage drop errors.
