Texas Instruments LMV358IPWRE4

Overview

LMV358IPWRE4 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 LMV358IPWRE4 datasheet, LMV358IPWRE4 pinout, LMV358IPWRE4 application, or LMV358IPWRE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail output swing down to 60 mV from rails at 10 kΩ load, input offset voltage ≤7 mV (typ), –40°C to 125°C operating temperature range, and TSSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.

Technical Context

The LMV358IPWRE4 implements a CMOS input stage with rail-to-rail output stage using complementary push-pull drivers, enabling full-swing operation from GND to VCC+ across its specified 2.7–5.5 V supply range. Its internal architecture supports common-mode input voltage down to –0.2 V and up to VCC+ – 0.2 V at 2.7 V supply.

It features no crossover distortion due to seamless transition between output transistor conduction regions, and maintains stable unity-gain operation with ≥60° phase margin into 100 pF capacitive loads when driving 2 kΩ resistive loads - verified at both 2.7 V and 5 V supplies.

FAQ

What is the maximum supply voltage for LMV358IPWRE4?

The absolute maximum supply voltage for LMV358IPWRE4 is 5.5 V. Operation above this risks permanent damage. Recommended operating range is 2.7 V to 5.5 V; at 5 V supply, output swing reaches within 40 mV of VCC+ and 65 mV of GND with 10 kΩ load, as confirmed in Section 7.6 of the SLOS263W datasheet.

Does LMV358IPWRE4 support rail-to-rail input?

No, LMV358IPWRE4 does not support rail-to-rail input. Its common-mode input voltage range is specified from –0.2 V to VCC+ – 0.2 V at 2.7 V supply, and from 0 V to 4.2 V at 5 V supply. Input signals must stay within these bounds to maintain CMRR ≥50 dB; grounding the negative supply rail is required for true ground-referenced inputs.

Can LMV358IPWRE4 drive capacitive loads?

Yes, LMV358IPWRE4 can drive capacitive loads up to 100 pF while maintaining ≥60° phase margin and stable unity-gain operation, as verified in Figure 6 and Figure 7 of the datasheet. For loads >100 pF, external series resistance (≥100 Ω) at the output is recommended to isolate capacitance and preserve stability.

What is the input bias current specification for LMV358IPWRE4?

The input bias current for LMV358IPWRE4 is 15 nA (typ) at 25°C and 2.7 V supply, rising to 500 nA maximum across –40°C to 125°C. This low bias current minimizes voltage error across high-value feedback resistors (e.g., 1 MΩ), making it suitable for precision sensor interfaces where leakage-induced offset must be <10 μV.

Is LMV358IPWRE4 pin-compatible with LM358?

No, LMV358IPWRE4 is not pin-compatible with standard LM358. While both are dual op-amps in 8-pin packages, LM358 uses SOIC-8 pinout (1OUT, 1IN–, 1IN+, VCC+, 2IN+, 2IN–, 2OUT, GND), whereas LMV358IPWRE4 in TSSOP-8 follows TI's LMV358-specific pinout: 1OUT, 1IN–, 1IN+, GND, VCC+, 2OUT, 2IN–, 2IN+. PCB layout must match the TSSOP-8 assignment.
