Product details
Overview
LMV641MAX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a low-power, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for battery-powered and portable systems. It delivers 10 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, 138 µA supply current, 500 µV max input offset voltage, 120 dB CMRR, and operates from 2.7 V to 12 V single or ±5 V dual supplies - enabling precision signal conditioning in space-constrained sensor front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LMV641MAX/NOPB datasheet, LMV641MAX/NOPB pinout, LMV641MAX/NOPB application, or LMV641MAX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low quiescent current at wide supply range, rail-to-rail output swing within 40 mV of rails (at 2 kΩ), 14 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, and guaranteed −40°C to +125°C operation - critical for portable instrumentation and industrial sensing designs.
Technical Context
The LMV641MAX/NOPB employs a unity-gain-stable transconductance architecture with internal compensation optimized for 10 MHz GBW at 138 µA. Its input stage supports common-mode voltage down to the negative rail, enabling ground-sensing in single-supply configurations. The rail-to-rail output uses complementary push-pull circuitry delivering 22 mA sourcing and 25 mA sinking capability into 2 kΩ loads.
Stability is maintained up to 100 pF capacitive load without external compensation; beyond that, in-loop RC compensation (e.g., series RISO or feedback CF) is required to preserve phase margin. Thermal performance is characterized across SOIC-8 (RθJA = 166°C/W), SOT-23-5 (325°C/W), and SC70-5 (456°C/W) packages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 12 V single supply or ±5 V dual supply - supports direct interface with Li-ion, 3.3 V, and 5 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 10 MHz - enables stable amplification of audio-band and low-MHz sensor signals (e.g., piezoelectric, strain gauge) with minimal phase lag. |
| Supply Current | 138 µA typical at 2.7 V - extends battery life in always-on monitoring nodes; increases to 190 µA at 10 V but remains sub-200 µA across full range. |
| Input Offset Voltage | Max 500 µV at 25°C - ensures ≤0.5 mV DC error in 10× gain sensor amplifiers without trimming. |
| CMRR / PSRR | 120 dB CMRR, 105 dB PSRR - rejects power rail noise and common-mode interference in noisy embedded environments. |
| Output Swing | 40 mV from rail (high/low) at 2 kΩ load - maximizes dynamic range in 3.3 V ADC interfaces, preserving >97% of full-scale resolution. |
| Voltage Noise Density | 14 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - outperforms typical micropower op amps by 3–5×, critical for low-level thermocouple or bridge sensor amplification. |
Pinout & Package
LMV641MAX/NOPB is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC package (4.90 mm × 3.91 mm body size) with standard industry pinout and JEDEC-compliant thermal characteristics (RθJA = 166°C/W).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input (VIN−) | Differential input node; high-impedance (90 nA bias current) for feedback network connection in inverting configurations. |
| 2 | Negative Supply (V−) | Ground reference for single-supply operation or −5 V rail in dual-supply systems; supports rail-to-rail input common-mode down to this pin. |
| 3 | Noninverting Input (VIN+) | High-impedance input for sensor reference or signal source; accepts voltages from V− to V+ − 0.7 V. |
| 4 | Positive Supply (V+) | Primary power rail; must be decoupled with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed ≤2 mm from pin to minimize supply-induced noise. |
| 5 | Output (VOUT) | Rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing 22 mA/sinking 25 mA into 2 kΩ; requires external isolation resistor for >100 pF capacitive loads. |
| 6 | No Connect (N/C) | Internally unused; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice to reduce parasitic coupling. |
| 7 | No Connect (N/C) | Internally unused; same handling as Pin 6 - no routing or soldering required. |
| 8 | No Connect (N/C) | Internally unused; electrically isolated; PCB pad may be omitted or grounded for thermal relief. |

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 VOS (1.5 mV max), same 138 µA IQ, SC70-5 only | Not suitable for >100 kHz signal paths or precision DC measurements requiring <1 mV error | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs bandwidth/noise needs and SOIC-8 footprint is not required. |
| TLV9001IDBVR | Higher bandwidth (1 MHz → 1 MHz), lower VOS (0.25 mV max), 150 µA IQ, rail-to-rail I/O, SOT-23-5 | Superior DC precision but 3× lower bandwidth limits AC-coupled sensor use above 100 kHz | Prefer for ultra-low-offset, low-frequency applications (e.g., pH meters); avoid where 10 MHz GBW is essential. |
Compared with MCP6001T-E/OT and TLV9001IDBVR, LMV641MAX/NOPB uniquely balances 10 MHz bandwidth, 138 µA quiescent current, and rail-to-rail output in an SOIC-8 package - making it optimal for portable instrumentation requiring both speed and battery efficiency without sacrificing output drive or thermal robustness.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMV641MAX/NOPB can drive without external compensation?
The LMV641MAX/NOPB remains stable with capacitive loads up to 100 pF when configured in unity-gain or non-inverting configurations. Beyond 100 pF, external compensation (e.g., series output resistor or feedback capacitor) is required to maintain phase margin. Datasheet Figure 13–14 confirms stability degradation above this threshold, and Table 1 provides recommended RS/CF values for 0.5–1.5 nF loads. For LMV641MAX/NOPB, exceeding 100 pF un-compensated risks oscillation or excessive ringing in time-domain response.
Does the LMV641MAX/NOPB support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes. The LMV641MAX/NOPB features a common-mode input voltage range extending to the negative supply rail (V−), enabling direct connection of 0 V-referenced sensors such as current shunts, thermistors, or bridge circuits in single-supply configurations. This ground-sensing capability is explicitly verified across −40°C to +125°C and at all supply voltages from 2.7 V to 12 V. For LMV641MAX/NOPB, no level-shifting or biasing network is needed to interface with ground-referenced sources.
What is the output voltage swing specification for LMV641MAX/NOPB at 3.3 V supply?
At V+ = 3.3 V and V− = 0 V, the LMV641MAX/NOPB delivers a minimum output swing of 42 mV from the positive rail and 38 mV from the negative rail into a 2 kΩ load (per Section 6.5, VO parameters). This yields >3.2 V of usable output range - sufficient to fully drive 3.3 V ADCs with minimal headroom loss. These values are production-tested at 25°C and derated to 68 mV/58 mV at temperature extremes, ensuring reliable performance across the full −40°C to +125°C range for LMV641MAX/NOPB.
How does the input voltage noise of LMV641MAX/NOPB compare to other micropower op amps?
The LMV641MAX/NOPB specifies 14 nV/√Hz input voltage noise density at 1 kHz - significantly lower than typical micropower op amps (e.g., MCP6001: 29 nV/√Hz; TLV2461: 28 nV/√Hz). Its 4 Hz 1/f corner further reduces low-frequency noise, making it suitable for DC-coupled, sub-10 Hz sensor applications. This noise performance is achieved without increasing supply current beyond 138 µA - a key differentiator confirmed in TI's SNOSAW3D datasheet for LMV641MAX/NOPB.
Is LMV641MAX/NOPB pin-compatible with other op amps in the LMV64x family?
No. The LMV641MAX/NOPB is a single-channel SOIC-8 device. The LMV642 (dual) and LMV644 (quad) variants use MSOP-8 and TSSOP-14 packages respectively - differing in pin count, pinout, and thermal characteristics. While electrical specifications are closely matched across the LMV64x family, LMV641MAX/NOPB has no pin-compatible drop-in replacements. Board layout must be designed specifically for its SOIC-8 footprint and 8-pin configuration, as defined in the LMV641MAX/NOPB datasheet Pin Functions table.
