Product details
Overview
LMV981TLX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, rail-to-rail input/output operational amplifier optimized for 1.8-V to 5-V battery-powered systems. It delivers 1.4-MHz gain bandwidth, 100-µA supply current per channel, 4-mV max input offset voltage, and output swing within 80 mV of rails under 600-Ω load - enabling precision signal conditioning in wearables and portable audio.
For engineers reviewing the LMV981TLX/NOPB datasheet, LMV981TLX/NOPB pinout, LMV981TLX/NOPB application, or LMV981TLX/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low quiescent current, shutdown functionality with 19-µs turnon time, rail-to-rail operation beyond supplies (±200 mV), and DSBGA-6 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LMV981TLX/NOPB implements a CMOS input stage supporting rail-to-rail common-mode input range extending 200 mV beyond V− and V+, and an output stage capable of driving 600-Ω loads while maintaining stability with up to 1000-pF capacitive loads. Its architecture achieves 101-dB DC open-loop gain and 0.35-V/µs slew rate at 1.8 V.
Shutdown control is active-low: pulling SHDN below 0.55 V (1.8 V supply) disables the amplifier, reducing supply current to ≤1 µA and placing the output in high-impedance state. The device operates across −40°C to +125°C and is specified for 1.8-V, 2.7-V, and 5-V supplies with guaranteed performance at all three voltages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–3.7 V), two-cell alkaline (2.4–3.2 V), and 3.3-V/5-V logic domains without level shifting. |
| Quiescent Current | 100 µA per channel at 1.8 V - enables >1-year battery life in always-on sensor front-ends powered by CR2032 coin cells. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 1.4 MHz - sufficient for anti-aliasing filters, microphone preamps, and supply monitoring loops up to ~100 kHz. |
| Input Offset Voltage | Max 4 mV at 25°C - ensures ≤0.2% error in 12-bit ADC reference buffers or current-sense amplifiers with 100-mV full-scale signals. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 80 mV of rails into 600 Ω at 1.8 V - preserves dynamic range in low-voltage audio DAC output stages and battery voltage monitors. |
| Shutdown Current | ≤1 µA - reduces system standby power by >99% versus active mode, critical for intermittent-sensing IoT nodes. |
| Turnon Time from Shutdown | 19 µs at 1.8 V - fast enough for burst-mode sensing (e.g., motion-triggered wake-up) without missing initial signal transients. |
Pinout & Package
LMV981TLX/NOPB is packaged in a 1.006 mm × 1.514 mm, 0.945-mm height DSBGA-6 (YZR) package - optimized for ultra-thin portable devices. The bottom-side ball layout supports automated optical inspection and high-density routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| +IN (C1) | Noninverting input | Accepts signals from V− − 0.2 V to V+ + 0.2 V - enables direct sensing of battery voltage or thermistor dividers without external biasing. |
| −IN (C2) | Inverting input | Used for closed-loop configurations (e.g., inverting amplifier, transimpedance); matched input bias current minimizes offset drift. |
| OUT (A2) | Amplifier output | Drives 600-Ω loads to within 80 mV of rails; stable with 1000-pF capacitive loads - eliminates need for external isolation resistors in LCD bias or LED drive. |
| SHDN (B1) | Active-low shutdown control | Pull ≤0.55 V to disable; output goes high-Z - allows shared shutdown bus across multiple sensors in modular wearables. |
| V+ (A1) | Positive supply | Connects to main system rail (1.8–5 V); internal ESD protection rated ±2000 V HBM ensures robustness during board handling. |
| V− (B2) | Negative supply / ground | Supports single-supply (0 V) or split-supply (e.g., ±0.9 V) operation; common-mode range extends 200 mV below this node. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail input beyond supplies | ±200 mV common-mode range enables direct measurement of signals outside supply rails - e.g., battery voltage above V+ in fuel-gauge circuits. |
| Ultra-low shutdown current | ≤1 µA at 25°C - reduces average system power in duty-cycled applications such as step-counting accelerometers. |
| Guaranteed 1.8-V operation | Full AC/DC specs validated at 1.8 V - eliminates design margin uncertainty when scaling down from 3.3-V legacy systems. |
| High DC open-loop gain | 101 dB - ensures <0.001% gain error in precision instrumentation amplifiers and closed-loop current sources. |
| Capacitive load drive capability | Stable with up to 1000-pF loads - supports direct connection to long traces, LCD segments, or piezoelectric transducers without phase compensation. |
Applications
| Battery Voltage Monitoring | Wearable Sensor Signal Conditioning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP6001T-E/OT | No shutdown pin; 100-µA IQ; 1-MHz GBW; SOT-23-5 package. | Lacks independent shutdown - unsuitable for burst-mode sensing where power gating is required. | Choose when board space permits larger SOT-23 and shutdown is managed externally via supply switching. |
| TSV911ILT | Includes shutdown; 160-µA IQ; 8-MHz GBW; SC70-6 package; higher VOS (1.5 mV typ). | Higher bandwidth and supply current - better for active filters but less optimal for multi-year battery life. | Prefer when faster settling (<1 µs) is needed for multiplexed sensor arrays, accepting 60% higher active current. |
Compared with MCP6001T-E/OT and TSV911ILT, LMV981TLX/NOPB uniquely balances ultra-low shutdown current (≤1 µA), guaranteed 1.8-V operation, and DSBGA-6 footprint - making it the only option meeting simultaneous requirements for miniaturized, multi-year battery-powered wearables with programmable power states.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for LMV981TLX/NOPB?
The LMV981TLX/NOPB is fully specified from −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. Its thermal resistance (RθJA) is 138.2°C/W in the YZR DSBGA package, enabling reliable operation in sealed wearable enclosures or automotive cabin modules without forced cooling.
Does LMV981TLX/NOPB support true single-supply operation?
Yes, LMV981TLX/NOPB supports true single-supply operation down to 1.8 V. Its input common-mode range extends 200 mV below V− (ground), and its output swings to within 80 mV of V− and V+ - allowing direct interfacing with unipolar sensors and ADCs without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical input bias current of LMV981TLX/NOPB?
The typical input bias current of LMV981TLX/NOPB is 15 nA at 25°C and remains ≤50 nA across −40°C to +125°C. This low bias current minimizes voltage errors in high-impedance sensor interfaces such as pH electrodes or photodiode transimpedance amplifiers.
Can LMV981TLX/NOPB drive a 1000-pF capacitive load stably?
Yes, LMV981TLX/NOPB is characterized for stable operation with up to 1000-pF capacitive loads without external compensation. This capability simplifies designs involving long PCB traces, LCD bias networks, or piezoelectric actuator drivers where phase margin degradation is a concern.
Is LMV981TLX/NOPB pin-compatible with other packages in the LMV98x-N family?
No, LMV981TLX/NOPB in DSBGA-6 (YZR) is not pin-compatible with SC70-6 (DCK) or SOT-23-6 (DBV) variants of LMV981-N. Pin functions are identical, but physical ball/pad locations differ - requiring separate PCB footprints for each package option.
