Product details
Overview
LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a quad, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage (2.7 V to 5.5 V), single-supply operation in automotive and industrial applications. It delivers 1 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 1 V/µs slew rate, 410 µA typical supply current per amplifier, −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 sensor interfaces and portable control systems.
For engineers reviewing the LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB datasheet, LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB pinout, LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB application, or LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualification (−40°C to +85°C), SOIC-14 package compatibility, guaranteed 2.7-V operation, no crossover distortion, and bipolar-input noise performance suitable for cost-sensitive analog front-ends.
Technical Context
The LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB implements a bipolar-input, rail-to-rail output stage on TI's submicron BiCMOS process - delivering improved noise performance and higher output drive versus CMOS-input alternatives. Its input stage supports common-mode voltage down to −0.2 V (enabling ground-referenced sensing), while the output stage achieves V+ −10 mV high-side and V− +65 mV low-side swing into 10 kΩ loads.
Designed as a drop-in upgrade to LM324 in low-voltage systems, it eliminates crossover distortion and maintains full functionality across 2.7–5.5 V supply range. Phase margin remains ≥60° with 200 pF capacitive load, supporting stable unity-gain follower configurations without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - ensures full operation across depleted Li-ion (3.0 V) and regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 1 MHz - supports stable closed-loop gain up to ~100× at 10 kHz for anti-aliasing or sensor amplification. |
| Slew Rate | 1 V/µs - enables clean 100-kHz sine wave output at 1 VPP without distortion. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 1.7 mV (max) - limits DC error to <±2 mV in unity-gain buffer or 10× gain stages. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | V+ −10 mV / V− +65 mV @ 10 kΩ - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3 V systems (e.g., 0.065–3.29 V output span). |
| Input Common-Mode Range | −0.2 V to V+ −0.8 V - allows direct connection of grounded sensors (e.g., thermistors, RTDs) without level-shifting. |
| Quiescent Current (per amp) | 410 µA (typ) - enables four-channel operation at <1.65 mA total, critical for always-on battery nodes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV324DTBRG4 | Same SOIC-14 package, identical electrical specs, but Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C) and non-automotive qualified. | Lacks AEC-Q100 certification; unsuitable for automotive under-hood or cabin modules requiring Grade 3 validation. | Select LMV324DTBRG4 only for industrial or consumer designs where extended temperature range is needed without automotive qualification. |
| TSV914IQ4T | Higher 8 MHz GBW, 15 V/µs slew rate, but 650 µA per amp supply current and narrower −0.3 V to V+ −0.1 V input range. | Better for high-speed filtering but less suitable for low-power, ground-sensing, or battery-critical applications. | Choose TSV914IQ4T when bandwidth >1 MHz is mandatory and power budget allows +50% current increase per channel. |
Compared with LMV324DTBRG4, LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB trades extended temperature capability for automotive qualification and lower risk in safety-critical cabin systems; versus TSV914IQ4T, it prioritizes ultra-low power and ground-referenced input operation over raw speed - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, battery-powered sensor hubs.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB?
LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB is qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 3, specifying reliable operation from −40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This range covers most automotive cabin and consumer industrial environments, though it does not extend to under-hood Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C) conditions. All electrical parameters in the datasheet are ensured across this full range.
Does LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground?
Yes. LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB features an input common-mode voltage range extending to −0.2 V (below ground) and up to V+ − 0.8 V, enabling direct connection of grounded sensors like thermistors or bridge circuits without level-shifting components. This is confirmed in Section 7.4 Recommended Operating Conditions and Figure 7-14 CMRR vs Input Common-Mode Voltage.
What is the maximum capacitive load LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB can drive without oscillation?
LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB is stable with up to 200 pF capacitive load in unity-gain follower configuration, as verified in Figure 7-23 Gain and Phase vs Capacitive Load and Section 8.3.1. Driving heavier loads requires isolation resistors (e.g., 620 Ω) or feedback compensation per Figure 8-3 to maintain ≥60° phase margin.
How does the rail-to-rail output of LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB improve system dynamic range?
At 3.3 V supply, LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB delivers output swing from 65 mV above ground to within 10 mV of V+, yielding a usable 3.235 V span - 98% of full rail. This maximizes resolution in 12-bit ADCs (e.g., 0.79 V per LSB vs 0.81 V for ideal 3.3 V), reducing quantization error in precision measurement systems.
Is LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB pin-compatible with standard LM324 variants?
No. While LMV324Q3MTX/NOPB shares the same SOIC-14 pinout as LM324, its electrical behavior differs significantly: it operates down to 2.7 V (vs LM324's 3 V minimum), exhibits no crossover distortion, and has rail-to-rail output (vs LM324's limited swing). Direct replacement requires verifying supply voltage, load, and AC performance - especially in legacy designs originally using LM324.
