Product details
Overview
LMV821M5X-TI 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 systems. It delivers 5 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 1.4 V/µs minimum slew rate, and 3.5 mV maximum input offset voltage at 2.7 V supply, enabling precision signal conditioning in space-constrained portable electronics such as cordless phones and PCMCIA modem transceivers.
For engineers reviewing the LMV821M5X-TI datasheet, LMV821M5X-TI pinout, LMV821M5X-TI application, or LMV821M5X-TI equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed rail-to-rail output swing into 600 Ω (2.50 V min / 0.30 V max at 2.7 V), ultra-small SC70-5 package (2.0 × 2.0 × 1.0 mm), and stable operation with capacitive loads up to 10,000 pF using isolation resistors.
Technical Context
The LMV821M5X-TI employs a CMOS input stage with ground-sensing common-mode range (−0.3 V to 4.3 V at 5 V) and achieves rail-to-rail output via complementary push-pull output transistors. Its 5 MHz unity-gain bandwidth and 61° phase margin at 2.7 V ensure stability under varying load conditions including 600 Ω resistive and 100–200 pF capacitive loads.
It operates across −40°C to +85°C with quiescent current of 220 µA per amplifier at 2.7 V, and supports single-supply configurations without external level-shifting circuitry due to its input common-mode range extending to ground and output swing within 160 mV of rails into 600 Ω.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
The LMV821M5X-TI is housed in an ultra-small SC70-5 surface-mount package (2.0 × 2.0 × 1.0 mm), optimized for high-density PCB layouts in handheld and modular designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Output | Amplified signal node; rail-to-rail capable into 600 Ω; requires no external pull-up for basic operation but benefits from 600 Ω pull-up when driving >220 pF loads. |
| 2 (−IN) | Inverting Input | Differential input terminal; accepts signals down to −0.3 V (beyond ground) at 5 V supply; bias current ≤90 nA max limits resistor-induced offset. |
| 3 (GND) | Ground | Reference node for single-supply operation; connects to system ground plane; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
| 4 (+IN) | Non-Inverting Input | Differential input terminal; identical common-mode range and bias current spec as −IN; used for unity-gain follower or non-inverting amplification. |
| 5 (V+) | Positive Supply | Power input; accepts 2.5–5.5 V; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 5 mm of pin for AC stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-voltage, low-power op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2461IDBVR | Higher quiescent current (550 µA), wider supply range (2.7–6 V), lower GBW (6.4 MHz), same SC70-5 package. | Better for higher-speed filtering but consumes >2× more power; less suitable for multi-day battery operation. | Select TLV2461IDBVR only if >5 MHz bandwidth is required and power budget allows ≥500 µA per channel. |
| MCP6001UT-E/OT | Lower quiescent current (100 µA), lower GBW (1 MHz), same rail-to-rail I/O, SOT23-5 package (slightly larger than SC70-5). | Optimized for ultra-low-power sensor wake-up circuits but insufficient for audio or modem baseband bandwidth. | Choose MCP6001UT-E/OT for sub-100 µA standby modes where bandwidth <1 MHz suffices. |
Compared with TLV2461IDBVR and MCP6001UT-E/OT, the LMV821M5X-TI uniquely balances 5 MHz bandwidth, 220 µA quiescent current, and SC70-5 footprint-making it optimal for portable communication interfaces requiring both speed and space efficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMV821M5X-TI can drive without oscillation?
The LMV821M5X-TI remains stable driving up to 10,000 pF when paired with a 20 Ω isolation resistor in series with the output, as verified in Figure 5 of the official datasheet. Without isolation, stability is maintained up to ~200 pF with 600 Ω parallel pull-up. Direct capacitive loading beyond 220 pF risks phase margin degradation below 61°, potentially causing ringing or oscillation in the LMV821M5X-TI output waveform.
Does the LMV821M5X-TI support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes, the LMV821M5X-TI supports true single-supply operation with input common-mode voltage range extending to −0.3 V (at 5 V supply) and down to ground (0 V) across its full operating temperature range. This allows direct connection of ground-referenced sensors or DAC outputs without level-shifting circuitry, preserving accuracy in the LMV821M5X-TI signal chain.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the LMV821M5X-TI in its SC70-5 package?
The LMV821M5X-TI in the SC70-5 package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 440 °C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions (single-layer board, no copper pour). This value implies a 97°C junction temperature rise at 220 µA quiescent current and 5.5 V supply - well within the 150°C absolute maximum rating, confirming safe operation in sealed portable enclosures.
How does the LMV821M5X-TI's input offset voltage compare across supply voltages?
The LMV821M5X-TI guarantees ≤3.5 mV maximum input offset voltage at 2.5 V, 2.7 V, and 5 V supplies - confirmed in Tables 1, 3, and 5 of the datasheet. No significant supply-dependent VOS shift is specified, ensuring consistent DC accuracy whether powered from lithium coin cells (3 V) or regulated 5 V rails, a key advantage of the LMV821M5X-TI over many competing micropower op amps.
Is the LMV821M5X-TI pin-compatible with other members of the LMV82x family?
No - the LMV821M5X-TI (SC70-5, 5-pin) is not pin-compatible with dual LMV822 or quad LMV824 variants, which use SOIC-8, MSOP-8, SOIC-14, or TSSOP-14 packages. While electrical specifications are closely matched across the LMV82x family, physical pin count and layout differ fundamentally; board redesign is required when substituting LMV821M5X-TI for LMV822 or LMV824 in existing designs.
