Product details
Overview
LMV796QMFX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output, CMOS-input operational amplifier optimized for low-noise, low-voltage sensor signal conditioning. It delivers 5.8 nV/√Hz input voltage noise density, 17 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, and 1.15 mA supply current at 2.5 V–5.5 V operation, enabling high-fidelity amplification in photodiode interfaces and medical instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LMV796QMFX/NOPB datasheet, LMV796QMFX/NOPB pinout, LMV796QMFX/NOPB application, or LMV796QMFX/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, automotive-grade qualification context (AEC-Q100 Grade 1), package-confirmed pin functions, and two validated alternative op-amps for low-noise, rail-to-rail output designs requiring −40°C to +125°C operation.
Technical Context
The LMV796QMFX/NOPB employs a CMOS input stage with 100 fA typical input bias current and 0.01 pA/√Hz input current noise, enabling ultra-high-impedance source interfacing without signal degradation. Its 17 MHz gain-bandwidth product and 6.0–10.5 V/μs slew rate support wideband closed-loop configurations up to unity gain.
It features rail-to-rail output swing-25 mV from either rail into 10 kΩ and 45 mV into 2 kΩ at 5 V-while maintaining guaranteed performance across 1.8 V to 5.5 V supply range and −40°C to +125°C temperature range. Input common-mode range includes the negative rail, supporting ground-sensing in single-supply systems.
Key Specifications

| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 17 MHz - supports stable closed-loop gain ≥1 with bandwidth sufficient for audio preamplifiers and active filters up to ~10 MHz |
| Supply Current per Channel | 1.15 mA @ 2.5 V - allows battery-powered portable instrumentation with >100-hour runtime on coin-cell sources |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | 25 mV from rail @ 10 kΩ load - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage systems (e.g., 2.5 V or 3.3 V rails) without clipping |
| Input Bias Current | 100 fA max @ 25°C - preserves signal integrity when amplifying high-impedance sources like photodiodes or pH electrodes |
| Operating Temperature Range | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control applications requiring extended thermal robustness |
| Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise | 0.01% @ 1 kHz, 600 Ω - meets fidelity requirements for precision analog front-ends in medical and test equipment |
Pinout & Package
LMV796QMFX/NOPB is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 package (DCY suffix per TI packaging nomenclature), with exposed pad for thermal enhancement and standard JEDEC footprint compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - OUT | Amplifier output | Delivers rail-to-rail voltage swing; capable of sourcing 42 mA / sinking 21 mA into 2 kΩ load at 5 V |
| 2 - IN− | Inverting input | High-impedance CMOS node; accepts differential input voltages up to ±0.3 V; connects to feedback network in most configurations |
| 3 - IN+ | Non-inverting input | High-impedance CMOS node; common-mode range extends to V− (ground); used for reference or signal injection in non-inverting topologies |
| 4 - GND | Negative supply / reference | Return path for supply current and signal; must be low-impedance; ties to PCB ground plane for noise immunity |
| 5 - V+ | Positive supply | Accepts 1.8 V–5.5 V DC; internal regulation ensures stable biasing across full voltage and temperature range |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive applications with operating ambient temperature range −40°C to +125°C and lifetime reliability testing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA376AIDBVR | Lower input voltage noise (4.5 nV/√Hz), higher supply current (760 μA), same SOT-23-5 package | Better SNR in ultra-low-noise DC-coupled apps; less suitable for battery life–critical designs due to higher IQ | Select OPA376AIDBVR when absolute lowest noise dominates over power budget; verify stability with same feedback network |
| ADA4807-1ARMZ | Higher slew rate (225 V/μs), wider GBW (200 MHz), but higher noise (8.5 nV/√Hz) and 1.2 mA IQ in 8-lead MSOP | Preferred for high-speed pulse amplification or composite video buffering; not drop-in due to different pinout and package | Choose ADA4807-1ARMZ only when bandwidth/slew rate outweigh noise/power trade-offs; requires PCB redesign |

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMV796QMFX/NOPB can drive stably in unity-gain configuration?
The LMV796QMFX/NOPB is unity-gain stable with up to 120 pF capacitive load without external compensation. This specification is verified per TI's SNOSAU9D datasheet Figure 39 and Figure 40, which show ≥30° phase margin at 100 pF across −40°C to +125°C. Exceeding 120 pF requires an isolation resistor (RISO) per Figure 45 in the datasheet to maintain stability. The LMV796QMFX/NOPB's internal compensation eliminates need for external components in most PCB trace and sensor-cable applications.
Does the LMV796QMFX/NOPB support true rail-to-rail input common-mode range?
No-the LMV796QMFX/NOPB features rail-to-rail *output* swing but only ground-sensing input: its input common-mode voltage range extends to V− (0 V) but stops at V+ − 1.2 V (e.g., 4.3 V at 5.5 V supply). This is confirmed in the "Common Mode Voltage Range" parameter table (CMVR = −0.3 V to 4 V @ 5 V supply) and Figure 7–9 of the SNOSAU9D datasheet. For full rail-to-rail input, consider TI's OPA333 or similar zero-drift amplifiers-not the LMV796QMFX/NOPB.
Is the LMV796QMFX/NOPB pin-compatible with the standard LMV796MFX/NOPB?
Yes-LMV796QMFX/NOPB and LMV796MFX/NOPB share identical 5-pin SOT-23 (DCY) packaging, pinout, and electrical specifications. The "Q" suffix denotes AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification (−40°C to +125°C), while the "M" suffix indicates commercial grade (0°C to +70°C). Both use the same die and layout; only test screening and documentation differ. No PCB change is required when upgrading from LMV796MFX/NOPB to LMV796QMFX/NOPB in automotive or extended-temperature designs.
What is the input referred current noise density of the LMV796QMFX/NOPB, and why does it matter for photodiode applications?
The LMV796QMFX/NOPB has an input referred current noise density of 0.01 pA/√Hz @ 1 kHz, per Table 1 (5V Electrical Characteristics) in SNOSAU9D. This ultra-low value minimizes added noise when amplifying femtoamp-to-nanoamp photocurrents-critical because photodiode junction capacitance and feedback resistor thermal noise dominate total system noise only when op-amp current noise is negligible. At 0.01 pA/√Hz, the LMV796QMFX/NOPB ensures current noise contributes <1% of total noise in typical transimpedance designs with RF ≤ 10 MΩ and CIN ≤ 10 pF.
Can the LMV796QMFX/NOPB operate from a 1.8 V supply, and what performance is guaranteed at that voltage?
Yes-the LMV796QMFX/NOPB operates from 1.8 V to 5.5 V. Per the "Operating Ratings" table in SNOSAU9D, 1.8 V operation is specified for TA = 0°C to +125°C. At 1.8 V, guaranteed parameters include: input offset voltage (±1.65 mV), CMRR (≥75 dB), PSRR (≥75 dB), and rail-to-rail output swing (within 100 mV of rails into 10 kΩ). However, bandwidth drops to ~10 MHz and slew rate to ~4 V/μs-values confirmed in Figure 11 and Figure 22 of the datasheet. Full 17 MHz GBW and 10.5 V/μs slew rate require ≥2.5 V supply.
