Product details
Overview
LMC7101BIM5 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail input/output CMOS operational amplifier in a 5-pin SOT-23 package, specified for supply voltages from 2.7V to 15V, with 1MHz gain bandwidth, 0.5mA typical quiescent current at 5V, and 0.01% THD at 10kHz - enabling precision signal conditioning in space-constrained battery-powered sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LMC7101BIM5 datasheet, LMC7101BIM5 pinout, LMC7101BIM5 application, or LMC7101BIM5 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated pin functions, confirmed industrial temperature operation (–40°C to +85°C), rail-to-rail dynamic range behavior, and real-world alternative part comparisons - all grounded in TI's SBOSAL2 production data sheet.
Technical Context
The LMC7101BIM5 employs a high-input-impedance CMOS input stage (>1TΩ) with rail-to-rail common-mode voltage range extending 300mV beyond both supply rails, eliminating phase inversion under overvoltage conditions. Its output stage delivers rail-to-rail swing with sourcing/sinking capability up to ±24mA (at 5V) and low output impedance (110Ω/80Ω at 5V).
It operates across single-supply (2.7V–15V) and split-supply configurations, with PSRR ≥65dB (LMC7101B grade) and CMRR ≥51dB over full temperature range. Open-loop gain reaches 340V/mV (80dB) at 7.5V–12.5V output, supporting stable unity-gain and closed-loop configurations with capacitive loads up to 100pF when properly compensated.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7V to 15V - supports direct integration into 3.3V, 5V, and 12V systems without level-shifting. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 1MHz at 5V - enables stable amplification of audio and low-frequency sensor signals up to ~100kHz closed-loop. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.5mA typical at 5V - reduces thermal load and extends battery life in portable instrumentation. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±0.11mV (min), ±9mV (max, LMC7101B) - ensures <10µV error in precision DC-coupled gain stages. |
| Total Harmonic Distortion | 0.01% at 10kHz, 5V supply - preserves signal fidelity in audio preamps and transducer signal chains. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for automotive cabin electronics and industrial field sensors. |
| Rail-to-Rail I/O | Input common-mode extends to V− –0.3V and V+ +0.3V; output swings within 0.1V of rails (RL = 2kΩ) - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage systems. |
Pinout & Package
LMC7101BIM5 is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package measuring 2.9mm × 2.8mm × 1.43mm - optimized for PCB area reduction and proximity placement near signal sources.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Output | Amplified signal node; capable of sourcing/sinking up to ±24mA (5V); rail-to-rail swing enables full-scale ADC interfacing. |
| 2 (V+) | Positive Supply | Primary power connection; accepts 2.7V–15V single-supply or positive rail in split-supply mode. |
| 3 (+IN) | Noninverting Input | High-impedance (≥1TΩ), rail-to-rail CMVR input; used for unity-gain buffers and high-Z sensor front-ends. |
| 4 (–IN) | Inverting Input | High-impedance, rail-to-rail CMVR input; forms feedback path in inverting amplifiers and difference configurations. |
| 5 (V−) | Negative Supply | Ground reference in single-supply operation or negative rail in dual-supply mode; must be connected for functionality. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input and output | Enables full utilization of supply voltage headroom in 3.3V and 5V systems, reducing need for external biasing networks. |
| 0.5mA typical supply current at 5V | Lowers self-heating on dense PCBs and extends runtime in coin-cell or Li-ion powered devices. |
| 0.01% THD at 10kHz | Supports clean amplification of audio-band and ultrasonic sensor outputs without harmonic contamination. |
| 1TΩ input resistance | Minimizes loading error on high-impedance sources like piezoelectric sensors and pH electrodes. |
| No phase inversion beyond rails | Allows safe operation with input transients exceeding V+ or V− by ≤300mV - simplifies protection design. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMC6482IMX/NOPB | Dual-channel SOIC-8; higher IQ (1.2mA), wider GBW (1.5MHz), but larger footprint and no SOT-23 option. | Used where dual amplifiers are needed on same board; not suitable for ultra-compact single-channel layouts. | Select LMC6482IMX/NOPB only if dual-channel functionality and higher speed justify added area and power. |
| TLV2461IDBVR | Single-channel SOT-23-5; lower IQ (0.65mA), 6.4MHz GBW, but rail-to-rail output only (not input); VOS max ±3.5mV. | Better for higher-speed AC-coupled apps; unsuitable for DC-critical sensor front-ends requiring rail-to-rail input. | Choose TLV2461IDBVR when bandwidth >1MHz is required and input common-mode range beyond rails is not needed. |
Compared with LMC6482IMX/NOPB and TLV2461IDBVR, the LMC7101BIM5 uniquely balances ultra-small size, true rail-to-rail I/O, sub-1mA quiescent current, and industrial temperature rating - making it the only option among the three qualified for compact, low-power, DC-precision sensor nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for LMC7101BIM5?
The absolute maximum supply voltage (VS = V+ – V−) for LMC7101BIM5 is 16V, with recommended operation up to 15.5V. Operation at 15V is fully characterized per TI's SBOSAL2 datasheet, including gain bandwidth, output swing, and THD performance - making it suitable for 12V automotive auxiliary circuits with margin.
Does LMC7101BIM5 support rail-to-rail input at 3V supply?
Yes, LMC7101BIM5 supports rail-to-rail input at 3V supply: its input common-mode voltage range extends from V− –0.3V to V+ +0.3V, enabling full-swing operation down to 0V and up to 3.3V. At 3V, minimum guaranteed CMVR is 0V to 3.3V with CMRR ≥47dB - confirmed in Section 5.6 of the datasheet.
What is the typical output swing of LMC7101BIM5 at 5V supply with 2kΩ load?
At 5V supply and 2kΩ load, LMC7101BIM5 delivers a typical output swing of 4.7V to 4.9V relative to V+ (positive rail) and 0.1V to 0.18V relative to V− (negative rail), per Section 5.7 of the SBOSAL2 datasheet. This 4.8Vpp usable range maximizes resolution when driving 5V ADCs.
Is LMC7101BIM5 suitable for automotive applications?
LMC7101BIM5 is rated for industrial temperature (–40°C to +85°C) and meets key automotive subsystem requirements, but TI designates the automotive-qualified variant as LMC7101Q-Q1. For non-safety-critical cabin electronics (e.g., climate sensors, infotainment aux inputs), LMC7101BIM5 is widely deployed - though AEC-Q100 qualification applies only to the Q1 version.
How does LMC7101BIM5 handle capacitive loads?
LMC7101BIM5 can directly drive up to 100pF at unity gain with 15V supply without oscillation. For larger capacitive loads (e.g., ADC inputs, multiplexers), TI recommends resistive isolation (e.g., 300Ω series resistor) as shown in Figure 7-1 of SBOSAL2 - preserving stability while maintaining signal integrity.
