Product details
Overview
LMC8101MM from Texas Instruments is a rail-to-rail input and output CMOS operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage (2.7V–10V) battery-powered systems, delivering 1MHz gain-bandwidth, ±5mV max offset voltage, and 36nV/√Hz input voltage noise in an 8-pin VSSOP package. It integrates a user-configurable shutdown feature with 1µA max shutdown current and 10µs turn-on time, enabling power-sensitive applications such as cellular phone power amp control loops and portable data buffers.
For engineers reviewing the LMC8101MM datasheet, LMC8101MM pinout, LMC8101MM application, or LMC8101MM equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail swing within 35mV of supplies (RL = 2kΩ), 1mA max supply current at 2.7V, shutdown threshold flexibility via SL pin referencing, THD of 0.18% at 1kHz, and compatibility with single- or split-supply operation across −40°C to +85°C.
Technical Context
The LMC8101MM implements a CMOS input stage with 10GΩ common-mode input resistance and 10pF input capacitance, supporting rail-to-rail input voltage range from −0.2V to 2.7V (at VS = 2.7V) and output swing to within 35mV of either rail under 2kΩ load. Its internal architecture includes a dedicated shutdown control path with hysteresis on the SD pin and selectable reference (V+ or V−) via the SL pin, enabling deterministic active/shutdown transitions without chatter.
It features a unity-gain-stable compensation scheme with 1MHz GBW and 1V/µs slew rate (AV = +1, RL = 10kΩ), optimized for driving moderate capacitive loads up to 8.2nF when combined with resistive output loading or isolation resistors. The device achieves 78dB CMRR and 57dB PSRR at 2.7V supply, with input offset drift of 4µV/°C and 1/f noise significantly lower than LMC7101.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7V to 10V - supports single-supply portable systems and dual-supply industrial signal conditioning without level-shifting. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1MHz - enables stable unity-gain buffer configurations and first-order active filters up to ~100kHz. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±5mV max - ensures ≤10mV total error in precision DC-coupled sensing paths at room temperature. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 35mV of V+ or V− (RL = 2kΩ) - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage ADC driver or sensor interface stages. |
| Shutdown Current | 1µA max - extends battery life in intermittent-sampling systems by reducing quiescent draw by >1000×. |
| Voltage Noise Density | 36nV/√Hz at 10kHz - suitable for low-noise preamplification of microvolt-level signals in audio or instrumentation front-ends. |
| THD | 0.18% at 1kHz, 2.2Vpp, RL = 600Ω - meets fidelity requirements for voice-band analog signal routing in communication devices. |
Pinout & Package
The LMC8101MM is packaged in an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) measuring 3.0mm × 4.9mm with 0.65mm lead pitch, offering surface-mount compatibility and thermal resistance (θJA) of 230°C/W on standard PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive Supply Rail | Accepts 2.7V–10V; powers internal bias circuitry and output stage; must be decoupled near pin with ≥0.1µF ceramic capacitor. |
| V− | Negative Supply Rail / Ground | Reference node for single-supply operation (0V) or negative rail in split-supply mode (e.g., −5V); ties to system ground plane. |
| IN+ | Non-Inverting Input | High-impedance CMOS node (10GΩ RIN); accepts common-mode voltages from −0.2V to 2.7V at 2.7V supply. |
| IN− | Inverting Input | High-impedance CMOS node; used for feedback configuration; matched to IN+ for optimal CMRR performance. |
| OUTPUT | Amplifier Output | Capable of sourcing/sinking 10mA (short-circuit limited); swings rail-to-rail within 35mV under 2kΩ load. |
| SD | Shutdown Control Input | Digital logic input with hysteresis; asserts shutdown when voltage is within ~1V of selected supply (V+ or V−) referenced by SL pin. |
| SL | Shutdown Reference Select | Configures SD threshold reference: tied to V− → SD referenced to V−; tied to V+ → SD referenced to V+. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input and output | Enables full-supply utilization in single-ended 2.7V systems, eliminating need for external level shifters in sensor interfaces. |
| Versatile shutdown with SL/SD pins | Allows system-level power sequencing by selecting V+ or V− as shutdown reference, avoiding external voltage dividers or logic translators. |
| Low 1/f noise vs. LMC7101 | ~60% lower integrated noise (0.1Hz–100Hz) improves accuracy in DC-coupled precision measurement applications like battery voltage monitoring. |
| Threefold higher output current vs. LMC7101 | Delivers 10mA short-circuit current (vs. ~3mA for LMC7101), sustaining larger output swing into 2kΩ loads at low supply voltages. |
| DSBGA and VSSOP packaging options | VSSOP (DGK) variant provides proven manufacturability and thermal performance; DSBGA (YPB) offers 75% smaller footprint for space-constrained handheld designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rail-to-rail op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMC7101M5/NOPB | Lower output drive (3mA SC), higher 1/f noise, no shutdown pin, SOT-23-5 package (5-pin, no SD/SL). | Lacks configurable shutdown and rail-to-rail output swing; suited only for always-on, low-current buffer roles. | Select only if board space is critical and shutdown is unnecessary; verify output swing margin at 2.7V. |
| TLV2462IDR | Higher supply current (650µA typ), 6.4MHz GBW, dual-channel, no shutdown, SOIC-8 package. | Offers higher speed but consumes >2× more quiescent power; no power-gating capability for battery longevity. | Prefer when bandwidth >1MHz is required and shutdown is not needed; avoid in ultra-low-power intermittent-sensing systems. |
Compared with LMC7101M5/NOPB and TLV2462IDR, the LMC8101MM uniquely combines rail-to-rail I/O, sub-1mA quiescent current, hardware shutdown control, and 1MHz bandwidth in a standardized 8-pin VSSOP footprint-making it the only option among the three that satisfies simultaneous low-power, precision, and configurability requirements in portable power management circuits.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for the LMC8101MM?
The LMC8101MM supports a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 10V, with absolute maximum rating of 12V across V+ and V−. Operation above 10V voids guaranteed specifications and risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. For reliable long-term use, maintain supply within 2.7V–10V and ensure proper decoupling at the V+ pin.
Does the LMC8101MM support single-supply operation?
Yes, the LMC8101MM fully supports single-supply operation from 2.7V to 10V. Its rail-to-rail input common-mode range extends to V− −0.2V and V+ +0.0V (at 2.7V), and output swings to within 35mV of either rail under 2kΩ load. This allows direct interfacing with microcontroller ADCs and digital logic without external biasing networks.
How does the shutdown function work on the LMC8101MM?
The LMC8101MM uses two dedicated pins-SD (shutdown) and SL (shutdown reference select)-to enable flexible power gating. When SL is tied to V−, the SD pin threshold is referenced to V− (~1.5V above V−); when SL is tied to V+, SD is referenced to V+ (~1.5V below V+). Asserting SD within ~1V of the selected reference places the device in shutdown, reducing supply current to ≤1µA and tri-stating the output.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the LMC8101MM in VSSOP package?
The LMC8101MM in VSSOP (DGK) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 230°C/W when mounted on a standard FR-4 PCB with typical copper pour. This value assumes no additional heatsinking and defines the maximum allowable power dissipation as PD = (150°C − TA)/230°C/W, where TA is ambient temperature. Derate linearly above 25°C ambient.
Is the LMC8101MM pin-compatible with the LMC7101?
No, the LMC8101MM is not pin-compatible with the LMC7101. The LMC8101MM uses an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) package with dedicated SD and SL pins for shutdown control, whereas the LMC7101 is offered in 5-pin SOT-23 (no shutdown capability) and 8-pin SOIC packages with different pin assignments. Board layout changes are required for substitution.
