Product details
Overview
LMV321M5X/NOPB 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, −0.2 V to 4.0 V input common-mode range (including ground), and rail-to-rail output swing (V+−10 mV / V−+65 mV at 10 kΩ), enabling precision signal conditioning in battery-powered portable devices.
For engineers reviewing the LMV321M5X/NOPB datasheet, LMV321M5X/NOPB pinout, LMV321M5X/NOPB application, or LMV321M5X/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed 2.7-V/5-V operation, absence of crossover distortion, industrial temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), SC70-5 package footprint, and compatibility with space-constrained, low-power analog front-ends in consumer and industrial systems.
Technical Context
The LMV321M5X/NOPB employs a bipolar input stage and rail-to-rail output stage fabricated on Texas Instruments' submicron BiCMOS process, delivering improved noise performance and higher output drive versus CMOS-input alternatives. Its input common-mode range extends to −0.2 V (below ground) and up to V+−0.8 V, supporting true single-supply sensing near 0 V.
It achieves stable unity-gain operation with up to 200 pF capacitive load without external compensation and exhibits no crossover distortion-unlike legacy LM324-family amplifiers-due to its optimized output stage architecture and biasing scheme.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports full operation across depleted lithium coin-cell (3 V) and standard 5-V rails without level-shifting. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1 MHz - enables stable closed-loop gain ≥10 at 100 kHz for anti-aliasing or sensor signal amplification. |
| Slew Rate | 1 V/µs - sufficient for 100-kHz full-scale sine output at 1.6 Vpp without distortion in unity-gain buffer configurations. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 1.7 mV (max) - ensures ≤17 mV error at 10× gain, suitable for 12-bit ADC interfacing with <0.5% gain error budget. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | V+−10 mV / V−+65 mV @ 10 kΩ - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3-V systems, delivering >3.2 Vpp output swing. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | −0.2 V to V+−0.8 V - allows direct DC-coupled sensing of signals referenced to ground in single-supply topologies. |
| Quiescent Current | 130 µA (typ) at 5 V - enables >1-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes powered by 200-mAh coin cells. |
Pinout & Package
LMV321M5X/NOPB is packaged in a 5-pin SC70 (DCK) package measuring 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and portable electronics. The compact footprint reduces board area by ~50% versus SOT-23-5 while maintaining identical pinout compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Noninverting Input (+IN) | High-impedance node accepting sensor or reference signals; requires matched trace routing to minimize offset drift. |
| 2 | Ground / Negative Supply (V−) | Low-impedance return path; must connect directly to PCB ground plane with minimal trace inductance. |
| 3 | Inverting Input (−IN) | Feedback node for closed-loop configurations; sensitive to parasitic capacitance-keep traces short and guard-ring isolated. |
| 4 | Output (OUT) | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±40 mA; avoid driving >200 pF directly without series isolation resistor. |
| 5 | Positive Supply (V+) | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V; decouple with 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed <1 mm from pin to suppress supply ripple. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No Crossover Distortion | Eliminates zero-crossing glitches in audio buffers and precision comparators, ensuring clean waveform fidelity in AC-coupled sensor outputs. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Delivers >99% of supply rail-to-rail voltage range at 10 kΩ load, preserving SNR in low-voltage data acquisition chains. |
| Ground-Sensing Input Range | Accepts inputs down to −0.2 V, enabling direct interface with transducers biased below ground (e.g., bridge sensors with negative offset). |
| 200-pF Capacitive Load Stability | Operates unconditionally stable in unity-gain follower mode with 200 pF load-critical for driving ADC input capacitors or long cables. |
| Industrial Temperature Range | Specified from −40°C to +125°C junction temperature-validates operation in automotive cabin modules and industrial motor controllers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar general-purpose op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV9001IDBVR | Faster slew rate (2 V/µs), lower input bias current (1 pA), but higher supply current (60 µA typ at 3.3 V); CMOS input vs bipolar. | Better for high-Z sensor interfaces (e.g., pH electrodes), less ideal for driving moderate loads due to lower output current (±40 mA vs TLV9001's ±15 mA). | Select TLV9001IDBVR when ultra-low input bias current dominates design requirements; LMV321M5X/NOPB preferred for cost-sensitive, load-driving applications. |
| LM321DR | Higher supply voltage range (3–32 V), higher VOS (7 mV max), no rail-to-rail output (V+−1.5 V / V−+1.5 V), larger SOIC-8 package. | Compatible with legacy 12-V industrial systems but incompatible with 3.3-V logic domains or space-constrained layouts. | Choose LM321DR only for backward compatibility in existing 5–12 V designs; LMV321M5X/NOPB is superior for new low-voltage, miniaturized implementations. |
Compared with TLV9001IDBVR and LM321DR, LMV321M5X/NOPB uniquely balances rail-to-rail output drive, 130 µA quiescent current, −0.2 V input capability, and SC70-5 size-making it the optimal choice for next-generation portable and automotive sensor signal chains where power, space, and ground-referenced accuracy are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load LMV321M5X/NOPB can drive without oscillation?
The LMV321M5X/NOPB is specified to remain stable in unity-gain configuration with up to 200 pF capacitive load at the output. This is verified per TI's datasheet Figure 7-23 (Gain and Phase vs Capacitive Load). Driving heavier loads (e.g., >500 pF) requires series isolation resistance (e.g., 620 Ω) between the output and load capacitor to restore phase margin. Exceeding 200 pF without compensation risks ringing or sustained oscillation in the LMV321M5X/NOPB output stage.
Does LMV321M5X/NOPB support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes. The LMV321M5X/NOPB features an input common-mode voltage range extending to −0.2 V (below ground) and up to V+−0.8 V, explicitly enabling DC-coupled operation with inputs referenced to 0 V in single-supply systems. This is confirmed in Section 7.7 and 7.9 of the datasheet under "VCM Input Common-Mode Voltage Range." No level-shifting circuitry is required for ground-referenced transducer interfaces, making LMV321M5X/NOPB suitable for direct connection to bridge sensors or current-sense resistors tied to system ground.
What is the typical supply current of LMV321M5X/NOPB at 3.3 V operation?
While the datasheet specifies 130 µA typical supply current at 5 V (Section 7.9), measurements in Figure 7-1 show that LMV321M5X/NOPB draws approximately 105 µA at 3.3 V and 25°C. This value scales sublinearly with supply voltage due to internal biasing architecture. At 2.7 V, typical current drops to ~95 µA. These values are critical for estimating battery runtime in 3.3-V IoT sensor nodes, where LMV321M5X/NOPB enables multi-year operation on primary lithium cells.
Is LMV321M5X/NOPB pin-compatible with other SC70-5 op amps like TLV2371 or MCP6001?
No. Although LMV321M5X/NOPB uses the SC70-5 (DCK) package, its pinout differs from TLV2371 (which places V− on Pin 2 and V+ on Pin 5) and MCP6001 (which places V+ on Pin 5 and V− on Pin 2 but swaps IN+ and IN− positions). LMV321M5X/NOPB follows the industry-standard SC70 op amp pinout: Pin 1 = +IN, Pin 2 = V−, Pin 3 = −IN, Pin 4 = OUT, Pin 5 = V+. Substituting without layout revision will cause functional failure. Always verify pin mapping using TI's official LMV321-N datasheet Figure 6-1.
What thermal performance can be expected from LMV321M5X/NOPB in a 2-layer PCB design?
In a standard 2-layer PCB with 1-in² copper pour connected to Pin 2 (V−) and Pin 5 (V+), the LMV321M5X/NOPB exhibits a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 478°C/W (per Section 7.5). At 130 µA supply current and 5 V, power dissipation is ~0.65 mW, resulting in <0.3°C junction rise above ambient-well within safe limits. For continuous 125°C ambient operation, this margin ensures reliable performance without derating, confirming LMV321M5X/NOPB's suitability for enclosed industrial enclosures.
