Product details
Overview
LMV324QD from Texas Instruments is a quad rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage single-supply operation (2.7 V to 5.5 V), delivering 1 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 1 V/μs slew rate, and 410 μA typical supply current per amplifier - used in motor control feedback loops, HVAC sensor conditioning, and portable media player audio stages.
For engineers reviewing the LMV324QD datasheet, LMV324QD pinout, LMV324QD application, or LMV324QD equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail output swing down to 60 mV from rails at 10 kΩ load, –40°C to 125°C operating temperature range, input offset voltage of 1.7–7 mV, and SOIC-14 package compatibility with legacy LM324 layouts.
Technical Context
The LMV324QD implements a CMOS-input, rail-to-rail output op-amp architecture with common-mode input range extending to ground, enabling direct interfacing with single-ended sensors and microcontroller ADCs. Its internal compensation ensures stable unity-gain operation with capacitive loads up to 100 pF.
It features no crossover distortion due to complementary output stage design and supports both single-supply (2.7–5.5 V) and split-supply configurations. Input bias current remains below 250 nA across temperature, preserving accuracy in high-impedance transducer interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - enables direct integration into 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 1 MHz - supports closed-loop gain ≥10 up to ~100 kHz with adequate phase margin. |
| Slew Rate | 1 V/μs - limits full-scale step response time to ≤1.5 μs for 1.5 V output swing. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 1.7–7 mV (typ) - introduces ≤0.7% error in 1 V full-scale sensor signal conditioning. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 60–180 mV of rails (10 kΩ load) - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage ADC interfaces. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor drive environments. |
| ESD Protection | 2000-V HBM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 for board-level robustness. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM324DR | Wider supply range (3–32 V), higher ICC (1.5 mA), no rail-to-rail output (min swing = 1.5 V from rails at 5 V). | Legacy industrial designs requiring 12/24 V operation; unsuitable for 3.3 V-only systems. | Select LM324DR only when existing PCB layout uses DIP/SOIC-14 and system operates above 5 V. |
| TLV2464CDR | Lower input offset (0.6 mV typ), higher GBW (6.4 MHz), higher ICC (550 μA), same SOIC-14 package. | High-precision sensor signal chains needing sub-0.1% gain error; not cost-optimized for consumer appliances. | Choose TLV2464CDR when offset drift and bandwidth outweigh power and cost constraints. |
Compared with LM324DR and TLV2464CDR, LMV324QD delivers optimal balance of rail-to-rail output, ultra-low supply current, and extended temperature range in cost-sensitive 3.3 V embedded systems - making it preferred for next-generation HVAC, motor control, and portable electronics where voltage headroom is constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for LMV324QD?
The LMV324QD is specified for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature, with electrical characteristics fully guaranteed across this range. This qualification makes LMV324QD suitable for under-hood automotive applications and industrial motor control enclosures where thermal management is limited. The device's thermal resistance (RθJA) is 113°C/W in SOIC-14 package, allowing safe operation at full load up to 125°C with minimal heatsinking.
Does LMV324QD support true rail-to-rail input?
No, LMV324QD does not support rail-to-rail input - its common-mode input voltage range extends to ground (0 V) but stops at VCC – 1.2 V (not VCC). However, it does provide rail-to-rail output swing, reaching within 60 mV of VCC and GND at light loads. For applications requiring full rail-to-rail input, consider TI's TLV2464 or OPA333 families. LMV324QD's ground-sensing capability remains sufficient for most single-supply sensor interfaces.
Can LMV324QD replace LM324 in existing designs?
Yes, LMV324QD is pin-compatible with LM324 in SOIC-14 packages and offers functional improvements including rail-to-rail output, lower supply current (410 μA vs. 1.5 mA), and wider temperature range (–40°C to 125°C vs. 0°C to 70°C). However, note that LMV324QD requires minimum 2.7 V supply - it will not operate below this threshold, unlike LM324 which functions down to 3 V. Verify supply stability and output swing margins before drop-in replacement.
What is the typical input bias current of LMV324QD?
The typical input bias current of LMV324QD is 15 nA at 25°C and 250 nA maximum across the full –40°C to 125°C temperature range. This low bias current enables high-impedance sensor interfaces (e.g., pH electrodes, piezoelectric transducers) without significant DC error. The input stage uses CMOS technology, resulting in bias current that doubles approximately every 10°C - a critical factor in precision thermistor or strain gauge circuits operating at elevated temperatures.
Is LMV324QD RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, LMV324QD is RoHS compliant and lead-free, manufactured in accordance with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 (MSL-3) and qualified to TI's green chemistry standards. The SOIC-14 package uses matte tin lead finish with no lead content exceeding 1000 ppm by weight. Full compliance documentation, including IPC-1752 material declarations and REACH SVHC statements, is available through TI's Quality & Environmental page for LMV324QD.
