Product details
Overview
LMV321M5X from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage (2.7 V to 5.5 V) general-purpose applications. It delivers 1 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 1 V/µs slew rate, 130 µA supply current at 5 V, rail-to-rail output swing (V+ −10 mV / V− +65 mV at 10 kΩ), and input common-mode range extending to −0.2 V - enabling ground-sensing in single-supply systems such as portable sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LMV321M5X datasheet, LMV321M5X pinout, LMV321M5X application, or LMV321M5X equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package-specific pin functions, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options - all grounded in TI's SNOS012K revision K (August 2020) production data sheet and official orderable information.
Technical Context
The LMV321M5X employs a bipolar input stage and BiCMOS process for improved noise performance (39 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz) and higher output drive capability (±40 mA short-circuit current). Its rail-to-rail output architecture eliminates crossover distortion and supports full dynamic range down to 2.7 V supply.
It operates across −40°C to +125°C with guaranteed DC precision: input offset voltage ≤7 mV (typ), CMRR ≥65 dB, PSRR ≥60 dB, and input bias current ≤250 nA - all specified at both 2.7 V and 5 V supplies per TI's dual-voltage characterization methodology.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - enables direct operation from single Li-ion or two-alkaline cells without regulation. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1 MHz - supports stable unity-gain buffer and low-frequency active filters up to ~100 kHz. |
| Slew Rate | 1 V/µs - sufficient for 100-kHz sine waves at 10-Vpp without distortion. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | V+ −10 mV / V− +65 mV @ 10 kΩ - maximizes usable output voltage headroom in low-voltage systems. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | −0.2 V to V+ − 0.8 V - includes ground, allowing direct sensing of 0-V referenced signals. |
| Quiescent Current | 130 µA (typ) at 5 V - extends battery life in always-on portable instrumentation. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive-grade environments. |
Pinout & Package
LMV321M5X is supplied in the SC70-5 (DCK) package: 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm, 0.65 mm pitch, ultra-small footprint ideal for space-constrained PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Noninverting Input (+IN) | High-impedance input accepting signals within −0.2 V to V+ − 0.8 V; requires matched impedance for bias current cancellation. |
| 2 | Negative Supply (V−) | Ground reference terminal in single-supply operation; must be connected directly to system GND plane. |
| 3 | Inverting Input (−IN) | Feedback node in closed-loop configurations; sensitive to layout parasitics due to high-Z nature. |
| 4 | Output (OUT) | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±40 mA; rail-to-rail swing enables full utilization of ADC input range. |
| 5 | Positive Supply (V+) | Primary power connection; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 2 mm of this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No Crossover Distortion | Eliminates zero-crossing glitches in audio and precision signal conditioning paths - verified in voltage-follower test waveforms. |
| 2.7-V & 5-V Guaranteed Performance | Full electrical specs validated at both endpoints - ensures consistent behavior across battery discharge profiles. |
| Capacitive Load Tolerance | Stable with up to 200 pF in unity-gain configuration - reduces need for external isolation resistors in sensor buffering. |
| Low Input Bias Current | 15 nA (typ) at 5 V - minimizes voltage error with high-impedance sources (e.g., thermistors, photodiodes). |
| ESD Robustness | ±900 V HBM - meets standard handling requirements for commercial board assembly without special precautions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar single-channel, low-voltage, rail-to-rail output op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV9001IDBVR | Lower input offset (0.75 mV max), higher GBW (1 MHz same), but higher supply current (60 µA vs 130 µA typ at 5 V). | Better DC accuracy for precision sensor gain stages; less suitable for ultra-low-power always-on monitoring. | Choose TLV9001IDBVR when offset drift and long-term stability outweigh quiescent current concerns. |
| LM321M5X | Higher supply voltage range (3–32 V), no rail-to-rail output (V+ −1.5 V / V− +1.5 V), higher IQ (400 µA), wider temp range (−40°C to +125°C same). | Compatible with legacy 5 V/12 V systems; unsuitable for sub-3 V battery operation or ground-sensing inputs. | Choose LM321M5X only when existing design uses LM321 footprint and higher supply voltages are available. |
Compared with TLV9001IDBVR and LM321M5X, LMV321M5X uniquely balances ultra-low quiescent current, rail-to-rail output, ground-sensing input, and AEC-Q100 grade-1 qualification - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained, battery-operated industrial and automotive sensor nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMV321M5X can drive without external compensation?
The LMV321M5X is stable driving up to 200 pF in unity-gain configuration, as confirmed in TI's SNOS012K datasheet Figure 7-23 and Section 8.3.1. This eliminates the need for isolation resistors in many sensor buffer and filter applications. For loads exceeding 200 pF, TI recommends using the resistive-isolation circuit shown in Figure 8-3 of the same datasheet. The LMV321M5X's internal compensation ensures phase margin remains above 60° under this condition.
Does the LMV321M5X support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes - the LMV321M5X features an input common-mode voltage range that extends to −0.2 V (below ground) and up to V+ − 0.8 V, explicitly enabling ground-referenced signal acquisition in single-supply systems. This is documented in Section 7.4 (Recommended Operating Conditions) and Section 7.7 (2.7-V DC Electrical Characteristics) of the SNOS012K datasheet. Protection diodes are integrated to handle brief excursions to −0.3 V, but sustained negative input requires external clamping.
What is the typical supply current of the LMV321M5X at 3.3 V operation?
While the datasheet specifies 130 µA (typ) at 5 V and 80 µA (typ) at 2.7 V, TI's Figure 7-1 (Supply Current vs Supply Voltage) shows the LMV321M5X draws approximately 105 µA at 3.3 V - interpolated from the published curve. This value is consistent with its BiCMOS process and confirms suitability for 3.3 V microcontroller-based sensor nodes where ultra-low IQ is critical for battery longevity.
Is the LMV321M5X pin-compatible with other SC70-5 op-amps like the TLV9001IDBVR?
No - the LMV321M5X and TLV9001IDBVR share the SC70-5 (DCK) package footprint and 5-pin count, but their pinouts differ: LMV321M5X uses Pin 1 = +IN, Pin 2 = V−, Pin 3 = −IN, Pin 4 = OUT, Pin 5 = V+; TLV9001IDBVR uses Pin 1 = OUT, Pin 2 = −IN, Pin 3 = +IN, Pin 4 = V−, Pin 5 = V+. Direct replacement requires PCB redesign. Always verify pin mapping against each device's official datasheet before substitution.
What automotive qualification does the LMV321M5X hold?
The LMV321M5X is not the automotive-grade variant; the qualified part is LMV321M5X-Q1 (AEC-Q100 Grade 1, −40°C to +125°C). The LMV321M5X itself is the commercial-grade version (LMV321-N), rated for −40°C to +125°C but not AEC-Q100 certified. TI explicitly lists LMV321-N-Q1 in the Device Information table and Section 1 Features - confirming LMV321M5X lacks automotive qualification unless ordered with the "-Q1" suffix.
