Product details
Overview
LMV821DBVTE4 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 0.4 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 LMV821DBVTE4 datasheet, LMV821DBVTE4 pinout, LMV821DBVTE4 application, or LMV821DBVTE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOT-23-5 package footprint, –40°C to 85°C operating range, rail-to-rail output swing down to 100 mV from rails (at 2 kΩ load), and absence of crossover distortion in audio and sensor front-end designs.
Technical Context
The LMV821DBVTE4 employs a CMOS input stage with rail-to-rail output stage, supporting input common-mode voltage down to ground and output swing within 100 mV of supply rails under 2 kΩ load. Its 5.5 MHz unity-gain bandwidth and 64.2° phase margin ensure stable operation with capacitive loads up to 22 pF when driving 600 Ω–100 kΩ loads.
Designed for single-supply operation, it features 72 dB CMRR and 75 dB PSRR at 5 V, with input offset voltage ≤4 mV over –40°C to 85°C and 0.5 μV/°C average drift - making it suitable for DC-coupled sensor amplification where offset stability matters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.5 V to 5.5 V - supports direct integration into 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Gain Bandwidth | 5.5 MHz typ at 5 V - enables stable closed-loop gain ≥10 at 500 kHz for anti-aliasing or active filtering. |
| Slew Rate | 1.9 V/μs typ at 5 V - supports 100 kHz full-power sine wave output at 1 Vpp without distortion. |
| Output Swing | 0.1 V from rail (high/low) at 2 kΩ - preserves dynamic range in low-voltage ADC driver stages. |
| Supply Current | 0.4 mA typ at 5 V - allows battery-powered operation for >1 year in always-on sensor nodes drawing <10 μA avg. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ≤4 mV max over –40°C to 85°C - ensures ≤20 mV error in 5× gain instrumentation paths without trimming. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and automotive cabin electronics. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 package (DBV): 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.15 mm body, gull-wing leads, 0.95 mm pitch - compatible with standard pick-and-place and reflow processes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN+) | Non-inverting input | Accepts signals from 0 V to VCC; supports DC-coupled sensor interfaces with ground-referenced sources. |
| 2 (IN−) | Inverting input | Used for feedback network connection; high impedance (>10¹² Ω) minimizes loading on precision dividers. |
| 3 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Rail-to-rail capable: drives 600 Ω loads to within 170 mV of VCC and GND at 5 V. |
| 4 (GND/VCC−) | Ground / negative supply | Single-supply reference node; must be low-impedance to minimize PSRR degradation. |
| 5 (VCC+) | Positive supply | Accepts 2.5–5.5 V; internal regulation ensures consistent biasing across supply range. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No crossover distortion | Enables clean audio amplification and zero-crossing detection without notch errors in comparator-like configurations. |
| Rail-to-rail output | Maximizes signal swing in 3.3 V systems - delivers >3.1 Vpp into 2 kΩ, preserving SNR for 12-bit ADCs. |
| Low 0.4 mA supply current | Reduces thermal rise in dense layouts and extends battery life in portable medical sensors. |
| 5.5 MHz bandwidth at 5 V | Supports closed-loop gain of 11 with >500 kHz small-signal bandwidth for active filter design. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV321DBVR | Lower 1 MHz GBW, 0.25 mA ICC, same SOT-23-5 package and pinout. | Targeted at cost-sensitive, lower-bandwidth applications like simple comparators or LED drivers. | Select LMV321DBVR only if bandwidth <1 MHz suffices and supply current reduction is critical. |
| TLV9001IDBVR | Higher 1 MHz GBW, 0.15 mA ICC, rail-to-rail I/O, but specified only for –40°C to 125°C. | Optimized for automotive cabin modules requiring extended temperature qualification. | Choose TLV9001IDBVR when AEC-Q100 compliance or 125°C operation is mandatory. |
Compared with LMV321DBVR, LMV821DBVTE4 provides 5.5× higher bandwidth and 1.6× faster slew rate at modest current penalty; versus TLV9001IDBVR, it offers superior 5.5 MHz bandwidth and proven industrial temperature performance at lower cost, though without automotive qualification.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for LMV821DBVTE4?
The LMV821DBVTE4 has an absolute maximum supply voltage of 5.5 V. Operation beyond this risks permanent damage. Recommended operating range is 2.5 V to 5 V per TI SLOS434I datasheet Section 6.1. This rating applies regardless of ambient temperature or load condition, and must be respected in both single- and dual-supply configurations.
Does LMV821DBVTE4 support rail-to-rail input operation?
No, LMV821DBVTE4 supports rail-to-rail *output* swing but not rail-to-rail *input*. Its input common-mode voltage range extends from VCC− (GND) to VCC+ − 0.3 V at 25°C, per Section 7.3 of the datasheet. For true rail-to-rail input capability, consider TI's TLV9001 or OPA316 families instead.
Is LMV821DBVTE4 pin-compatible with other LMV8xx variants?
LMV821DBVTE4 (SOT-23-5) is not pin-compatible with LMV822 (8-pin SOIC/DGK) or LMV824 (14-pin SOIC/PW). Within the LMV821 family, all SOT-23-5 versions (e.g., LMV821DBVR, LMV821DBVT) share identical pinout. However, SC-70-5 variants (DCK) use different pin numbering and are not mechanically or electrically interchangeable.
What is the typical output current drive capability of LMV821DBVTE4?
At 5 V supply, LMV821DBVTE4 delivers ±20 mA typical short-circuit output current (sourcing/sinking), with guaranteed minimum ±15 mA over –40°C to 85°C. Under 600 Ω load, it swings to within 170 mV of each rail while maintaining linearity - sufficient for driving ADC references or small relays directly.
Why is LMV821DBVTE4 marked "Not Recommended for New Designs"?
TI designated LMV821DBVTE4 as "Not Recommended for New Designs" (NRND) in 2016 due to newer alternatives like TLV9001 offering improved specs (lower noise, wider temp range, better PSRR) in the same SOT-23-5 package. LMV821DBVTE4 remains fully functional and supported for legacy production, with no announced discontinuance date as of latest TI packaging addendum.
