Product details
Overview
LMV551MFX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output, micropower operational amplifier optimized for battery-powered and space-constrained systems. It delivers 3 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 37 µA supply current per amplifier, and 70 mV rail-to-rail output swing (at 100 kΩ load, 5 V supply), enabling precision signal conditioning in portable instrumentation and automotive sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the LMV551MFX/NOPB datasheet, LMV551MFX/NOPB pinout, LMV551MFX/NOPB application, or LMV551MFX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low quiescent current, −40°C to +125°C operation, input common-mode range extending to ground, and compatibility with 2.7–5.5 V single-supply systems.
Technical Context
The LMV551MFX/NOPB employs TI's VIP50 CMOS process to achieve exceptional bandwidth-to-power efficiency (3 MHz at 37 µA). Its input stage supports ground-sensing operation with rail-to-rail common-mode range, while the output stage drives within 70 mV of both supply rails under light loads.
It is unity-gain stable but requires external compensation (e.g., isolation resistor or in-loop RC network) when driving capacitive loads >100 pF. Phase margin remains ≥75° with 10 kΩ resistive load and 20 pF capacitive load, ensuring robust stability in standard gain configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 3 MHz - enables audio-band filtering and fast sensor signal amplification without excessive power penalty |
| Supply Current per Amplifier | 37 µA at 5 V - supports multi-year battery life in always-on IoT nodes and portable medical devices |
| Input Offset Voltage | 3 mV max at 25°C - ensures <0.1% error in 3 V full-scale sensor front-ends without trimming |
| Output Swing (100 kΩ) | 70 mV from rail (high), 60 mV from rail (low) at 5 V - maximizes dynamic range in single-supply data acquisition |
| CMRR / PSRR | 93 dB / 90 dB - rejects supply noise and common-mode interference in noisy automotive or industrial environments |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control applications |
| Input Voltage Noise | 70 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - suitable for low-level transducer amplification where noise dominates resolution |
Pinout & Package
LMV551MFX/NOPB is packaged in a 5-pin SC70 (2.00 mm × 1.25 mm) - one of the smallest surface-mount op amp packages available, ideal for wearables and miniaturized sensor modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: +IN | Noninverting Input | Accepts signal referenced to ground; supports DC-coupled inputs down to V− |
| 2: V− | Negative Supply | Connect to ground in single-supply operation; enables true ground-sensing capability |
| 3: −IN | Inverting Input | Used for feedback configuration; high impedance (>10⁹ Ω) minimizes loading on source |
| 4: OUT | Amplifier Output | Rail-to-rail capable; drives 100 kΩ loads to within 70 mV of either supply rail |
| 5: V+ | Positive Supply | Operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V; internal regulation ensures consistent performance across voltage range |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Delivers >98% of full supply voltage range at light loads, preserving ADC input headroom in 3.3 V systems |
| Ground-sensing input | Common-mode range extends to V− (ground), enabling direct interface with 0 V-referenced sensors like thermistors |
| Ultra-low 37 µA quiescent current | Reduces system standby power by >50% vs comparable 1–5 MHz op amps, critical for coin-cell applications |
| 70 nV/√Hz input voltage noise | Enables sub-10 µV RMS noise floor in 10 Hz–10 kHz bandwidths, supporting high-resolution analog front-ends |
| Specified 3 V and 5 V operation | Guarantees performance across common battery chemistries (Li-ion, alkaline, coin cell) without derating |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP6001T-E/OT | Lower bandwidth (1 MHz), higher supply current (100 µA), same SC70-5 package | Less suitable for audio-band or fast transient response; better for cost-sensitive, lower-speed designs | Select when bandwidth >2 MHz is unnecessary and budget constraints outweigh power savings |
| TSV611ICT | Higher offset voltage (4.5 mV), lower PSRR (75 dB), same 37 µA supply current and SC70-5 footprint | Reduced noise immunity in noisy automotive or industrial supply rails | Choose only if TI supply chain continuity is unavailable and PSRR >85 dB is not required |
Compared with MCP6001T-E/OT and TSV611ICT, LMV551MFX/NOPB provides superior bandwidth-to-power ratio and tighter DC specifications-critical for precision, low-voltage, and wide-temperature applications where signal fidelity and battery longevity are prioritized over unit cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMV551MFX/NOPB can drive without external compensation?
The LMV551MFX/NOPB maintains stability with ≤100 pF capacitive load when driving a 10 kΩ resistive load. For loads exceeding 100 pF, external compensation-such as an isolation resistor (5–50 Ω) or in-loop RC network-is required to preserve phase margin ≥75° and prevent oscillation. This limitation stems from its optimized 3 MHz bandwidth at 37 µA quiescent current.
Does the LMV551MFX/NOPB support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes. The LMV551MFX/NOPB features an input common-mode voltage range that extends to V− (ground), allowing it to accurately amplify signals referenced to 0 V in single-supply configurations. This makes it suitable for interfacing directly with grounded sensors such as thermistors, RTDs, or bridge-based pressure transducers without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical output voltage swing of the LMV551MFX/NOPB at 3.3 V supply with 100 kΩ load?
At 3.3 V supply and 25°C, the LMV551MFX/NOPB delivers a typical output swing of 40 mV above V− (ground) and 48 mV below V+ (3.3 V), meaning it operates from ~40 mV to ~3.26 V. This rail-to-rail capability ensures >97% usable dynamic range, maximizing resolution when paired with 12-bit ADCs in low-voltage systems.
How does the LMV551MFX/NOPB perform in terms of input-referred voltage noise?
The LMV551MFX/NOPB exhibits a flatband input-referred voltage noise density of 70 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz and 100 kHz, with a low 1/f noise corner at 4 Hz. This noise profile supports high-fidelity amplification of low-frequency sensor signals-such as those from strain gauges or electrochemical sensors-without degrading signal-to-noise ratio in bandwidths up to 10 kHz.
Is the LMV551MFX/NOPB pin-compatible with other members of the LMV55x family?
No. The LMV551MFX/NOPB is a single-channel device in 5-pin SC70, while LMV552 (dual) uses 8-pin VSSOP and LMV554 (quad) uses 14-pin TSSOP. Pin functions differ across variants-only the LMV551 derivatives (e.g., LMV551IDBVR, LMV551IDCKR) share identical 5-pin SC70/SOT-23 pinout and electrical behavior with LMV551MFX/NOPB.
