Texas Instruments LM358LVIPWR

Overview

LM358LVIPWR from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, low-voltage operational amplifier designed for cost-sensitive, single-supply systems. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, delivers ±1 mV input offset voltage, 1 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, and 90 µA per channel quiescent current-enabling precision signal conditioning in battery-powered environmental sensors and low-side current sensing circuits.

For engineers reviewing the LM358LVIPWR datasheet, LM358LVIPWR pinout, LM358LVIPWR application, or LM358LVIPWR equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail input (common-mode range includes ground), unity-gain stability, robust 2-kV HBM ESD rating, and guaranteed operation across –40°C to 125°C for industrial embedded and power management designs.

Technical Context

The LM358LVIPWR implements a P-channel input differential pair with parallel N-channel stage to eliminate phase reversal during overdrive-critical for reliable low-voltage sensor front-ends. Its internal architecture supports stable unity-gain operation without external compensation while maintaining 75° phase margin at 5.5 V supply.

It features rail-inclusive common-mode input range (V– to V+ – 1 V), enabling direct interfacing with grounded shunt resistors in current-sense topologies, and integrates ESD protection diodes steering transients to V+ and V– rails-validated to 2-kV HBM per ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating temperature for LM358LVIPWR?

The LM358LVIPWR is fully specified and tested from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. This extended range is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 and supports deployment in under-hood automotive modules, industrial HVAC controllers, and enclosed power supply enclosures where thermal management is limited. The device maintains all electrical characteristics-including offset voltage, bandwidth, and output swing-within this full range.

Does LM358LVIPWR support rail-to-rail input?

LM358LVIPWR supports rail-to-rail *input common-mode range*, extending from V– (including ground in single-supply use) to V+ – 1 V across its full 2.7–5.5 V supply range. However, its output swing is not rail-to-rail: it reaches within 40 mV of V– and 1 V of V+ under 2-kΩ load. This input behavior enables direct interfacing with grounded shunts and thermistors without level-shifting circuitry.

Is LM358LVIPWR unity-gain stable?

Yes, LM358LVIPWR is explicitly unity-gain stable per TI's SBOS944E datasheet. It achieves ≥75° phase margin at 5.5 V supply with 100-pF capacitive load and requires no external compensation components. This allows direct implementation in voltage followers, active filters, and gain-of-1 sensor buffers without risk of oscillation-reducing design complexity and bill-of-materials cost.

What package type is LM358LVIPWR supplied in?

LM358LVIPWR is supplied exclusively in the 8-pin TSSOP (PW) package, with nominal dimensions of 3.00 mm × 4.40 mm and 0.65-mm lead pitch. This surface-mount package supports automated pick-and-place assembly, offers superior thermal performance versus SOIC (RθJA = 200.7°C/W), and is footprint-compatible with industry-standard TSSOP-8 land patterns.

Can LM358LVIPWR replace standard LM358 in existing designs?

LM358LVIPWR can replace standard LM358 in designs operating at 2.7–5.5 V supply with attention to pinout compatibility (both are 8-pin dual op-amps) and output swing limitations. It offers lower power (90 µA vs ~700 µA), better offset (±1 mV vs ±2 mV), and guaranteed 125°C operation-but requires verification of load drive capability due to reduced output voltage headroom near V+.
