Texas Instruments LMV358ID

Overview

LMV358ID from Texas Instruments is a dual 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 210 μA typical supply current per amplifier - used in portable media players, HVAC sensor conditioning, and netbook power monitoring circuits.

For engineers reviewing the LMV358ID datasheet, LMV358ID pinout, LMV358ID application, or LMV358ID equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail output swing down to 60 mV from rails at 10 kΩ load, input offset voltage of 1.7–7 mV, –40°C to 125°C operating temperature range, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.

Technical Context

The LMV358ID employs a CMOS input stage enabling rail-to-rail output swing and ground-sensing common-mode input range (–0.2 V to VCC – 0.2 V at 2.7 V). Its internal architecture supports stable unity-gain operation with 60° phase margin and 10 dB gain margin into 2 kΩ loads.

It operates as a true single-supply op amp with no shutdown control pins - unlike the LMV324S variant - and maintains 50 dB minimum CMRR and PSRR across 2.7 V to 5 V supply range, making it suitable for precision DC-coupled signal conditioning where supply rejection and offset stability are critical.

Key Specifications

Pinout & Package

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-voltage rail-to-rail op amp applications.

Compared with LMV358IDR, LMV358ID offers tube packaging for prototyping and small-batch assembly; versus MCP6022-I/SN, it trades bandwidth for lower cost and broader temperature qualification (125°C vs. 85°C), making it preferred for industrial HVAC and motor control.

Availability

LMV358ID is available at Aetrix Electronics and suitable for motor control feedback, portable audio line driving, and HVAC temperature sensing requiring stable component supply across industrial and consumer design cycles.

Supply support for LMV358ID includes scheduled delivery planning, volume procurement assistance, BOM continuity management, traceable sourcing, and lifecycle availability coordination for OEM customers, industrial embedded developers, connected-device designers, and electronics production programs.

Manufacturer

Texas Instruments is a global semiconductor company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, designing and manufacturing analog and embedded processing chips for industrial, automotive, and personal electronics markets.

The LMV3xx product line was developed to replace legacy LM358/LM324 op amps in low-voltage systems, prioritizing rail-to-rail output, ground-sensing inputs, and ultra-low power for battery-powered and space-constrained applications.

FAQ

What is the maximum supply voltage for LMV358ID?

The absolute maximum supply voltage for LMV358ID is 5.5 V. Operation beyond this limit risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range is 2.7 V to 5.5 V, with full electrical specifications guaranteed across that span. At 5 V, LMV358ID delivers 120–300 mV output swing from rails into 2 kΩ, supporting robust interfacing with 5 V microcontrollers and ADCs.

Does LMV358ID support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground?

Yes, LMV358ID supports true single-supply operation with inputs extending to ground (–0.2 V minimum common-mode voltage at 2.7 V supply). Its CMOS input stage enables DC-coupled sensor interfaces - such as thermistors or bridge transducers - without external biasing resistors, simplifying circuit design and reducing component count in portable and industrial systems using LMV358ID.

What is the typical input offset voltage of LMV358ID and how does it affect precision applications?

The typical input offset voltage of LMV358ID is 1.7–7 mV at 25°C, with a temperature coefficient of 5 μV/°C. In a 100× gain stage, this introduces up to ±0.7 mV output error - acceptable for HVAC temperature sensing (±0.5°C) but insufficient for sub-0.1% industrial current measurement. For such cases, system calibration or auto-zero op amps like OPA2333 should supplement LMV358ID usage.

Can LMV358ID drive capacitive loads, and what is the stability limit?

LMV358ID remains stable with capacitive loads up to 100 pF when driving a 2 kΩ load, per Figure 7 in the datasheet. Beyond that, phase margin degrades below 60°, risking oscillation. For loads >100 pF (e.g., long cables or LCD bias networks), add a 10–100 Ω isolation resistor in series with the output. This technique preserves stability without compromising DC accuracy in LMV358ID-based signal chains.

Is LMV358ID pin-compatible with LM358, and what are the key layout considerations?

LMV358ID is pin-compatible with LM358 in SOIC-8 packages, sharing identical pinout (1OUT, 1IN–, 1IN+, GND, VCC+, 2OUT, 2IN–, 2IN+). However, LMV358ID requires tighter power supply decoupling (0.1 μF ceramic within 5 mm of VCC+) due to higher sensitivity to supply noise, and its rail-to-rail output demands careful grounding to avoid ground bounce affecting adjacent channels in LMV358ID dual configurations.
