Product details
Overview
LMV321ILT from STMicroelectronics is a single, rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier in SOT23-5 package, designed for low-voltage portable systems. It operates from 2.7 V to 6 V, draws only 145 µA supply current per amplifier, delivers 1 MHz gain bandwidth product, and supports extended common-mode input range (VDD − 0.2 V to VCC + 0.2 V) at 25 °C - enabling precision signal conditioning in glucose meters and battery-powered medical sensors.
For engineers reviewing the LMV321ILT datasheet, LMV321ILT pinout, LMV321ILT application, or LMV321ILT equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail I/O capability at sub-3 V operation, 3 mV max input offset voltage at 25 °C, 48 mA output drive strength, −40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range, and SOT23-5 thermal resistance (250 °C/W).
Technical Context
This op-amp uses a CMOS input stage enabling rail-to-rail input common-mode range up to VCC + 0.2 V and VDD − 0.2 V at 25 °C, with guaranteed operation across −40 °C to +125 °C. Its 1 MHz GBP and 0.45 V/µs slew rate support stable unity-gain buffer and low-frequency active filtering in space-constrained designs.
The device features 85 dB typical CMRR and 90 dB typical PSRR at 5 V supply, ensuring robust performance against supply noise and common-mode interference in mixed-signal sensor front-ends. Input bias current remains below 63 nA over full temperature range, minimizing error in high-impedance transducer interfaces.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-power rail-to-rail op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSV851IST | Higher GBP (1.5 MHz), lower input offset (1.5 mV max), but 220 µA supply current. | Better for higher-frequency sensor excitation (e.g., ultrasonic distance sensing), less optimal for multi-year coin-cell life. | Select when bandwidth >1.2 MHz required and power budget allows +50% ICC increase. |
| LMV321LILT | Same pinout and specs, but specified for −40 °C to +85 °C only; not qualified for automotive or extended industrial temp. | Approved for consumer portables only; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and extended temperature validation. | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer electronics where full −40 °C to +125 °C operation is unnecessary. |
Compared with TSV851IST, LMV321ILT trades 0.5 MHz bandwidth and 1.5 mV offset for 55% lower supply current - making it superior for decade-long battery life in medical disposables. Versus LMV321LILT, it adds 40 °C higher max operating temperature and full industrial qualification, justifying premium for field-deployed diagnostics.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of LMV321ILT?
The LMV321ILT delivers ±48 mA output current under specified test conditions (Vid = ±100 mV, VO = VDD or VCC). This allows direct driving of 10 kΩ loads to rail at 2.7 V supply with <100 mV saturation voltage, eliminating need for external buffers in most portable sensor interfaces.
Does LMV321ILT support true rail-to-rail input at 125 °C?
At full temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C), the common-mode input range is guaranteed from VDD to VCC when VCC ≤ 5.5 V. At 125 °C and 6 V supply, the extended Vicm (VDD − 0.2 V to VCC + 0.2 V) is not guaranteed - design margin requires limiting supply to 5.5 V for full rail access across temperature.
Can LMV321ILT drive capacitive loads without instability?
LMV321ILT is unity-gain stable with capacitive loads ≤100 pF, as verified in DS4539 Figure 10–11. For larger loads (e.g., ADC input capacitance >100 pF), a series resistor (≥100 Ω) between output and load is required to maintain phase margin >44° and prevent peaking or oscillation.
Is LMV321ILT qualified for automotive applications?
No - LMV321ILT is rated for −40 °C to +125 °C industrial operation but is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For automotive use, ST offers LMV321IYLT (SOT23-5, AEC-Q100 Grade 2) and LMV321RIYLT (AEC-Q100 Grade 1), both with enhanced screening and qualification documentation.
