Product details
Overview
LMV821DBVRE4 from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage (2.5 V to 5.5 V), low-power applications. It delivers 5.5 MHz gain bandwidth, 1.9 V/μs slew rate, and 0.3 mA typical supply current at 5 V - enabling precision signal conditioning in space-constrained portable electronics such as cordless phones and PDAs.
For engineers reviewing the LMV821DBVRE4 datasheet, LMV821DBVRE4 pinout, LMV821DBVRE4 application, or LMV821DBVRE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOT-23-5 package footprint, –40°C to 85°C operating range, rail-to-rail output swing, input common-mode range extending to ground, and compatibility with 2.5-V/2.7-V/5-V supply rails.
Technical Context
The LMV821DBVRE4 employs a CMOS input stage with rail-to-rail output architecture, supporting single-supply operation down to 2.5 V while maintaining low crossover distortion and stable unity-gain performance. Its internal compensation ensures stability with capacitive loads up to 22 pF across 600 Ω–100 kΩ load ranges.
It features an input common-mode voltage range from –0.2 V to VCC+ – 0.3 V (at 5 V), 72 dB minimum CMRR, and 75 dB typical PSRR - making it suitable for sensor front-ends and battery-powered analog signal chains where ground-referenced inputs and noise immunity are critical.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV821IDBVR | Same electrical specs but rated for –40°C to 125°C; DBV package; top-side marking RB1B. | Required for under-hood automotive or industrial control environments exceeding 85°C ambient. | Select LMV821IDBVR only if extended temperature qualification is mandatory; otherwise LMV821DBVRE4 suffices for commercial-grade designs. |
| TLV2461CDBVR | Lower 1.2-mA supply current at 5 V, 6.4-MHz GBW, but higher 2.5-mV max VIO and no guaranteed rail-to-rail output below 100 mV of rails. | Better for ultra-low-noise, higher-speed applications where offset and output swing margins are relaxed. | Choose TLV2461CDBVR when bandwidth >5.5 MHz is needed and supply current <1.2 mA is acceptable; avoid if rail-to-rail output within 100 mV is required. |
Compared with LMV821IDBVR, LMV821DBVRE4 offers identical performance at lower cost and qualification scope, while TLV2461CDBVR trades guaranteed rail-to-rail output and lower offset for higher speed and slightly higher quiescent current - making LMV821DBVRE4 optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 2.5–5.5-V systems requiring precision output swing.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for LMV821DBVRE4?
The LMV821DBVRE4 is characterized for operation from –40°C to +85°C. This commercial-grade temperature range is validated per TI's SLOS434I datasheet and applies to all electrical specifications unless otherwise noted. The device is not rated for extended temperature operation beyond this range, and use outside these limits may result in parametric degradation or functional failure.
Does LMV821DBVRE4 support true rail-to-rail output swing?
Yes, LMV821DBVRE4 provides rail-to-rail output swing: at 5 V supply and 2 kΩ load, it swings to within 0.1 V of GND and 0.17 V of VCC+. This is confirmed in the 5-V Electrical Characteristics table (page 9) of the datasheet, enabling full utilization of ADC reference voltage in single-supply systems without external level-shifting circuitry.
What is the input common-mode voltage range of LMV821DBVRE4?
The input common-mode voltage range of LMV821DBVRE4 extends from –0.2 V to VCC+ – 0.3 V at 25°C (e.g., –0.2 V to 4.7 V at 5 V supply). This includes ground, allowing direct connection of ground-referenced sensors like thermistors or strain gauges without input biasing - a key feature documented in the 5-V Electrical Characteristics section (page 9).
Is LMV821DBVRE4 pin-compatible with other LMV8xx variants?
No, LMV821DBVRE4 is not pin-compatible with LMV822 or LMV824. It uses a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package, whereas LMV822 is 8-pin and LMV824 is 14-pin. However, LMV821DBVRE4 shares identical pinout with other LMV821 variants in DBV packaging (e.g., LMV821DBVR, LMV821DBVT), as shown in the "LMV821 … DBV OR DCK PACKAGE (TOP VIEW)" diagram on page 1 of the datasheet.
What is the typical supply current of LMV821DBVRE4 at 5 V?
The typical supply current of LMV821DBVRE4 is 0.3 mA at VCC+ = 5 V and TA = 25°C, as specified in the "Features" section (page 1) and confirmed in the 5-V Electrical Characteristics table (page 9). This value increases to 0.4 mA max over the full –40°C to 85°C operating range, supporting ultra-low-power design goals in battery-operated systems.
