Product details
Overview
LMV551MF/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output, micropower operational amplifier in a 5-pin SOT-23 package. It delivers 3 MHz unity-gain bandwidth with only 37 µA supply current per amplifier, supports 2.7 V to 5.5 V operation, and features 93 dB CMRR and 1 V/µs slew rate - enabling precision signal conditioning in ultra-low-power battery-powered sensor front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LMV551MF/NOPB datasheet, LMV551MF/NOPB pinout, LMV551MF/NOPB application, or LMV551MF/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include its verified rail-to-rail output swing (70 mV from rail at 5 V, 100 kΩ), −40°C to +125°C automotive-grade temperature range, and low 70 nV/√Hz input voltage noise - critical for portable instrumentation and high-accuracy analog sensing.
Technical Context
The LMV551MF/NOPB employs TI's VIP50 process to achieve exceptional bandwidth-to-power efficiency (3 MHz / 37 µA). Its input stage extends below ground, supporting true single-supply operation with common-mode range from V− to (V+ − 1.2 V) at 5 V. The amplifier is unity-gain stable but requires external compensation when driving >100 pF capacitive loads.
It exhibits flatband input voltage noise of 70 nV/√Hz and a low 1/f corner at 4 Hz - optimized for low-frequency sensor amplification. Output swing is specified down to 70 mV from either rail under 100 kΩ load at 5 V, and large-signal transient response shows minimal overshoot with proper layout and bypassing.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP6001T-I/OT | Lower bandwidth (1 MHz), higher supply current (100 µA), same SOT-23-5 package | Less suitable for >100 kHz signal paths; better for cost-sensitive, lower-speed sensor buffers | Choose MCP6001T-I/OT if bandwidth <1 MHz suffices and higher quiescent current is acceptable |
| TSV611ILT | Similar 3 MHz bandwidth, lower supply current (32 µA), but only 85 dB CMRR and −40°C to +85°C rating | Not qualified for automotive under-hood use; reduced noise rejection in electrically noisy environments | Choose TSV611ILT only for commercial-temperature consumer applications where CMRR >90 dB is not required |
Compared with MCP6001T-I/OT and TSV611ILT, LMV551MF/NOPB uniquely combines automotive temperature range, 93 dB CMRR, and 3 MHz bandwidth at 37 µA - making it the only option among the three qualified for precision, noise-immune, wide-temperature sensor front-ends.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMV551MF/NOPB can drive without external compensation?
The LMV551MF/NOPB remains stable with capacitive loads ≤100 pF. Beyond that, phase margin degrades significantly - e.g., 42° at 100 pF and 40° at 150 pF per TI's characterization. For loads >100 pF, external compensation (e.g., isolation resistor or in-loop RC network) is required to maintain stability. LMV551MF/NOPB datasheet Figure 26 and Table 1 provide validated compensation values.
Does the LMV551MF/NOPB support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes. The LMV551MF/NOPB features an input common-mode range extending to V− (GND in single-supply setups), enabling direct amplification of 0 V-referenced sensor outputs such as thermistors or bridge transducers. This is confirmed in Section 6.5 CMVR specification (0 V to 4.1 V at 5 V supply) and Functional Description Section 7.3.4.
What is the typical output voltage swing of the LMV551MF/NOPB at 3.3 V supply?
At 3.3 V supply and 100 kΩ load, LMV551MF/NOPB delivers typical output swing within 70 mV of each rail - i.e., ~0.07 V to ~3.23 V. This is extrapolated from the 5 V test data (70 mV from rail) and confirmed by Figure 22/23 in the datasheet showing monotonic rail approach across 2.7–5.5 V. Performance is guaranteed per Electrical Characteristics Table 6.5/6.6.
Is the LMV551MF/NOPB pin-compatible with other members of the LMV55x family?
No. LMV551MF/NOPB (5-pin SOT-23) has a different pin count and assignment than LMV552 (8-pin VSSOP) and LMV554 (14-pin TSSOP). While functional behavior is consistent across the family, PCB layout and routing must be redesigned for each variant. Pin compatibility applies only within identical package types - e.g., LMV551MF/NOPB and LMV551IDCKR (SC70) share identical pinout.
What packaging options are available for the LMV551MF/NOPB?
LMV551MF/NOPB is exclusively offered in the 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package per TI's official orderable addendum. The SC70-5 variant is designated LMV551IDCKR - a distinct part number with identical electrical specs but smaller 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm footprint. LMV551MF/NOPB itself is not available in SC70, SOIC, or any other package.
