Product details
Overview
LMV821DCKTE4 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, operating across –40°C to 85°C. It serves as a precision signal conditioner in portable sensor interfaces and battery-powered analog front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the LMV821DCKTE4 datasheet, LMV821DCKTE4 pinout, LMV821DCKTE4 application, or LMV821DCKTE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SC-70-5 package footprint, input offset voltage ≤4 mV over temperature, rail-to-rail output swing within 100 mV of rails at 2 kΩ load, and compatibility with space-constrained, single-supply systems requiring low quiescent current.
Technical Context
The LMV821DCKTE4 employs a CMOS input stage enabling rail-to-rail input common-mode range down to ground and rail-to-rail output swing. Its internal architecture supports stable unity-gain operation with 64.2° phase margin at 5 V and 600 Ω load, and achieves 135 dB amplifier-to-amplifier isolation in multi-channel systems.
It operates from a single 2.5–5.5 V supply, with input bias current ≤150 nA and input offset voltage drift of 1 μV/°C. The device features no crossover distortion and maintains ≥70 dB PSRR and CMRR across its full operating temperature range.

Pinout & Package
LMV821DCKTE4 is housed in a 5-pin SC-70 (DCK) package - ultra-small surface-mount outline measuring 2.0 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.9 mm - designed for high-density PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN+) | Non-inverting input | Accepts input signals referenced to ground; supports common-mode range from V– (GND) to V+ – 0.3 V. |
| 2 (IN−) | Inverting input | Provides feedback path; matched input impedance enables precision differential or instrumentation configurations. |
| 3 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Delivers rail-to-rail voltage swing; capable of sourcing/sinking ≥20 mA into 600 Ω loads at 5 V. |
| 4 (GND/VCC−) | Ground / negative supply | Single-supply reference node; must be low-impedance to minimize noise coupling and ensure PSRR performance. |
| 5 (VCC+) | Positive supply | Accepts 2.5–5.5 V; decoupling capacitor (0.1 μF) required within 2 mm for stability and transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No crossover distortion | Eliminates switching artifacts in audio and precision DC signal paths, ensuring clean zero-crossing behavior. |
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Maximizes usable dynamic range in single-supply systems-e.g., drives SAR ADCs directly without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Low 0.3 mA supply current | Reduces thermal load and extends battery runtime in always-on wearable health monitors and IoT edge sensors. |
| 5.5 MHz GBW at 5 V | Enables stable gain-of-10 amplification of 50 kHz sensor signals (e.g., piezoelectric vibration sensors) with <1% gain error. |
| SC-70-5 package | Occupies ~50% less board area than SOT-23-5, facilitating placement adjacent to compact transducers to minimize EMI pickup. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV821DBVT | SOT-23-5 package (larger footprint, higher thermal resistance: θJA = 206°C/W vs. DCK's 252°C/W); identical electrical specs. | Better suited for prototyping or manual assembly due to larger pad pitch; less optimal for ultra-dense layouts. | Select LMV821DBVT only when SC-70 reflow capability is unavailable or thermal dissipation >100 mW is required. |
| TLV2461CDBVR | Lower 500 kHz GBW, higher 0.65 mA supply current, but tighter 1.5 mV max VIO and extended –40°C to 125°C grade. | Preferred for high-precision, high-temp environments where bandwidth demand is <100 kHz and offset voltage is critical. | Choose TLV2461CDBVR when offset voltage <1.5 mV is mandatory and operating temperature exceeds 85°C. |
Compared with LMV821DBVT and TLV2461CDBVR, LMV821DCKTE4 uniquely balances ultra-small size, 5.5 MHz bandwidth, and 0.3 mA quiescent current-making it optimal for miniaturized, battery-sensitive designs where layout density and speed are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating supply voltage for LMV821DCKTE4?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for LMV821DCKTE4 is 5.5 V. Operation above this risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range is 2.5 V to 5.5 V, with full electrical specifications guaranteed across that span at temperatures from –40°C to +85°C. Exceeding 5.5 V violates Absolute Maximum Ratings and may compromise reliability.
Does LMV821DCKTE4 support rail-to-rail input common-mode range?
LMV821DCKTE4 supports rail-to-rail output swing but not rail-to-rail input. Its input common-mode voltage range extends from V– (GND) to V+ – 0.3 V at 25°C, per the datasheet's VICR specification. This allows ground-referenced inputs but excludes signals at the positive rail. For true rail-to-rail input, consider TI's TLV2461 or OPA333 families.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the SC-70 package used by LMV821DCKTE4?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) for LMV821DCKTE4 in the SC-70 (DCK) package is 252°C/W, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions (1 in² copper). Actual thermal performance depends on PCB layout, copper area, and airflow; adding thermal vias under the exposed pad (if present) is not applicable-the DCK package has no thermal pad.
Is LMV821DCKTE4 suitable for driving ADC inputs directly?
Yes, LMV821DCKTE4 is well-suited for driving SAR and delta-sigma ADC inputs. Its rail-to-rail output swing (within 100 mV of rails at 2 kΩ), low 0.3 mA supply current, and 5.5 MHz GBW enable low-noise, low-power buffering of sensor signals into 12–16 bit converters. Ensure proper output RC filtering and layout isolation to maintain SNR, especially at sampling rates >100 kSPS.
Why is LMV821DCKTE4 marked "Not Recommended for New Designs"?
LMV821DCKTE4 is marked "Not Recommended for New Designs" because Texas Instruments has superseded it with newer-generation amplifiers such as the TLV9001 (lower power, enhanced EMI immunity) and OPA316 (higher precision, lower noise). While LMV821DCKTE4 remains fully functional and supported for existing designs, TI advises new projects to evaluate these alternatives for improved performance, longevity, and manufacturing support.
