Product details
Overview
LMV793MA/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, decompensated CMOS-input operational amplifier optimized for high-speed, low-noise signal conditioning in 1.8V–5.5V systems. It delivers 88 MHz gain bandwidth at AV = +10, 5.8 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz, and rail-to-rail output swing within 25 mV of either rail into 10 kΩ - enabling precision photodiode amplification and ADC driver stages in portable medical and sensor instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LMV793MA/NOPB datasheet, LMV793MA/NOPB pinout, LMV793MA/NOPB application, or LMV793MA/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include its minimum stable gain of +10, 1.15 mA supply current at 5V, −40°C to +125°C operating range, and SOT-23-5 package compatibility with space-constrained, low-voltage analog front-ends.
Technical Context
The LMV793MA/NOPB uses a decompensated two-pole architecture with dominant pole at 1.6 kHz and second pole at 45 MHz, enabling 88 MHz GBW while maintaining 1.15 mA quiescent current. Its CMOS input stage provides 100 fA typical input bias current and rail-to-rail input common-mode range down to V−, supporting ground-sensing in single-supply configurations.
Stability requires closed-loop gain ≥10 (18–20 dB) without external compensation; lead-lag RC networks enable stable operation at lower gains. Output stage delivers ±45 mA sourcing/sinking capability and drives 600 Ω loads with <0.04% THD+N at 1 kHz - critical for high-fidelity active filters and transimpedance amplifiers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 88 MHz at AV = +10 - enables wideband signal amplification up to ~8.8 MHz closed-loop bandwidth before 3 dB roll-off. |
| Input Voltage Noise Density | 5.8 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves SNR in low-level sensor interfaces like photodiodes and strain gauges. |
| Supply Current per Channel | 1.15 mA at 5V - supports battery-powered designs requiring high speed without excessive power draw. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | 25 mV from rail into 10 kΩ - maximizes dynamic range in 1.8V–5.5V supplies, reducing headroom loss by >50% vs. non-RRO op amps. |
| Input Bias Current | 100 fA typical - minimizes voltage error across high-impedance sources (e.g., >100 MΩ photodiode feedback paths). |
| Operating Temperature Range | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood, industrial control, and medical equipment environments. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Includes V− (ground) - allows direct DC-coupled sensing of signals referenced to system ground in single-supply topologies. |
Pinout & Package
LMV793MA/NOPB is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), with exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 is marked via dot; pin numbering follows standard SOT-23 counterclockwise from mark.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Output | Amplified signal output node; capable of sourcing/sinking ±45 mA and driving 600 Ω loads with minimal distortion. |
| 2 | Inverting Input (−IN) | Differential input terminal; accepts feedback network connection for inverting configurations and sets closed-loop gain. |
| 3 | Non-Inverting Input (+IN) | Differential input terminal; referenced to ground or bias voltage in non-inverting buffers and sensors. |
| 4 | Ground / Negative Supply (V−) | Return path for supply current and reference for input/output voltage ranges; supports single-supply operation from 1.8V. |
| 5 | Positive Supply (V+) | Power input for 1.8V–5.5V operation; supply rejection ratio exceeds 80 dB across 2.0V–5.5V range. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Decompensated architecture | Enables 88 MHz GBW at 1.15 mA - 5× higher bandwidth than unity-gain-stable LMV796 (17 MHz) with identical supply current. |
| CMOS input stage | 100 fA input bias current and 0.01 pA/√Hz current noise - essential for ultra-high-impedance transimpedance amplifiers. |
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 25 mV of rails into 10 kΩ - preserves >95% of available voltage swing in 1.8V systems, improving ADC utilization. |
| Low-voltage operation | Specified performance at 2.5V and 5V; functional down to 1.8V (0°C to 125°C) - extends battery life in portable instrumentation. |
| High PSRR & CMRR | ≥80 dB PSRR (2.0V–5.5V) and ≥80 dB CMRR (0V–3.7V) - rejects supply ripple and common-mode interference in noisy embedded systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, low-noise operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV796MFX/NOPB | Unity-gain stable; 17 MHz GBW; 1.15 mA supply current; same SOT-23-5 package. | Preferred where gain < +10 is required without external compensation; trades bandwidth for ease of use. | Select LMV796MFX/NOPB when design constraints prohibit external RC compensation or require AV = +1 stability. |

FAQ
What is the minimum stable gain for LMV793MA/NOPB without external compensation?
The LMV793MA/NOPB requires a minimum closed-loop gain of +10 (18–20 dB) for stable operation without external compensation. This is due to its decompensated internal architecture, which places the dominant pole at 1.6 kHz and second pole at 45 MHz. Operating below gain +10 risks oscillation unless lead-lag RC compensation is applied per TI's Application Report SNOSAX6D.
Does LMV793MA/NOPB support true rail-to-rail input operation?
LMV793MA/NOPB supports rail-to-rail output swing but not rail-to-rail input. Its input common-mode voltage range extends to V− (ground) but only to 1.5 V at 2.5V supply and 4 V at 5V supply - meaning it cannot accept signals at V+ without clipping. The input stage is CMOS-based with guaranteed operation from V− to (V+ − 1.0 V) across temperature.
What is the maximum capacitive load LMV793MA/NOPB can drive without instability?
LMV793MA/NOPB can safely drive up to 20 pF capacitive load in unity-gain follower configuration with proper layout (short traces, local bypassing). For loads >20 pF, isolation resistor (10–100 Ω) between output and capacitance is recommended. Data sheet Figure 27 shows overshoot remains <10% up to 120 pF with 10 Ω series resistor - confirming robustness in moderate-capacitance ADC driver roles.
How does LMV793MA/NOPB perform at 1.8V supply voltage?
LMV793MA/NOPB is fully specified at 2.5V and 5V, and functional at 1.8V for temperatures from 0°C to 125°C. At 1.8V, it maintains 88 MHz GBW and 5.8 nV/√Hz noise, though output swing reduces to ~200 mV from rail into 10 kΩ and supply current drops to ~0.95 mA. Full −40°C to +125°C operation requires ≥2.0V supply per Electrical Characteristics tables.
Can LMV793MA/NOPB be used as a comparator?
No - LMV793MA/NOPB is not intended for open-loop comparator use. Its output stage employs positive feedback to enhance current drive, causing unpredictable propagation delay, latch-up risk, and degraded response when overdriven. TI explicitly advises against using LMV793MA/NOPB as a comparator; dedicated comparators like TLV3501 or LMV7215 are recommended instead.
