Product details
Overview
LMX358IDT from STMicroelectronics is a dual, rail-to-rail output, low-voltage operational amplifier optimized for battery-powered and portable signal conditioning. It operates from 2.3 V to 5.5 V, draws only 120 µA per channel at 2.7 V, delivers 1.3 MHz gain bandwidth, and supports full industrial temperature range (−40 °C to +125 °C) - enabling use in medical instrumentation front-ends and active filtering stages.
For engineers reviewing the LMX358IDT datasheet, LMX358IDT pinout, LMX358IDT application, or LMX358IDT equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, SO8 package pin mapping, real-world application cards, and validated alternative op-amps with documented functional differences for low-power, rail-to-rail output design scenarios.
Technical Context
The LMX358IDT integrates two independent high-precision amplifiers sharing a common supply domain, each featuring input common-mode voltage range extending to ground (VCC− − 0.2 V) and rail-to-rail output swing within 100 mV of both rails under 10 kΩ load. Its unity-gain stable architecture supports capacitive loads up to 500 pF without oscillation.
It exhibits no phase reversal or crossover distortion, achieves 75 dB typical CMRR and 79 dB SVRR at 5 V, and maintains 60° phase margin across −40 °C to +125 °C - making it suitable for precision DC-coupled sensing and low-distortion AC signal paths where supply headroom is constrained.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.3 V to 5.5 V - enables direct operation from single Li-ion or two alkaline cells without regulation. |
| Quiescent Current per Channel | 120 µA at 2.7 V - reduces battery drain in always-on sensor interfaces and portable diagnostics. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 1.3 MHz - supports stable unity-gain buffer configurations and low-frequency active filters up to ~100 kHz. |
| Rail-to-Rail Output Swing | Within 100 mV of VCC+ and VCC− at 10 kΩ load - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage ADC driver applications. |
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 6 mV over −40 °C to +125 °C - ensures <1% error in 1 V full-scale medical transducer amplification without trimming. |
| Operating Temperature Range | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive sensors and industrial motor control feedback loops. |
| THD+N | 0.002% at 1 kHz, 1 VPP, 10 kΩ - meets audio-grade signal integrity requirements in portable ultrasound front-ends. |
Pinout & Package
LMX358IDT is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (SO8) package with industry-standard pinout and 1.27 mm pitch. The exposed pad is not present - thermal dissipation relies on PCB copper area connected to VCC− via standard SO8 footprint.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input (Channel 2) | Accepts differential signal reference or feedback node for second op-amp stage. |
| 2 | Non-inverting Input (Channel 2) | Connects to sensor output or reference voltage for differential amplification. |
| 3 | Output (Channel 2) | Drives up to 26 mA sink / 21 mA source into resistive or moderate capacitive loads. |
| 4 | VCC− | Ground reference for dual-supply operation or negative rail in single-supply systems. |
| 5 | Non-inverting Input (Channel 1) | Primary sensor interface point for first amplifier channel - includes ground in common-mode range. |
| 6 | Inverting Input (Channel 1) | Feedback or reference input for programmable gain or comparator hysteresis configuration. |
| 7 | Output (Channel 1) | Delivers rail-to-rail output with <100 mV headroom - suitable for driving SAR ADC inputs directly. |
| 8 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - accepts 2.3–5.5 V; decoupling capacitor required within 5 mm. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No phase reversal | Prevents latch-up and output instability when input exceeds common-mode limits - critical in overvoltage-tolerant sensor interfaces. |
| No crossover distortion | Ensures clean zero-crossing in AC-coupled audio or pulse amplification without harmonic artifacts. |
| Stable at unity gain | Eliminates need for external compensation components in buffer or follower configurations - reduces BOM count and layout area. |
| Extended temperature range | Validated operation from −40 °C to +125 °C - supports deployment in automotive cabin modules and industrial PLC I/O stages. |
| Low input bias current | Max 110 nA over temperature - minimizes voltage error in high-impedance pH or thermocouple sensor circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual, rail-to-rail output, low-power operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSV852IST | Lower input offset voltage (1.6 mV max), higher supply current (280 µA/ch), same SO8 package. | Better DC accuracy for precision weight scales; less suitable for ultra-low-power battery designs. | Select when offset drift and long-term stability outweigh quiescent current constraints. |
| LMV358IDR | Higher quiescent current (150 µA/ch), wider supply range (2.7–5.5 V), identical pinout and rail-to-rail output. | Marginally better noise performance (28 nV/√Hz), but lacks extended −40 °C to +125 °C qualification. | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer applications where industrial temperature range is not required. |
Compared with TSV852IST and LMV358IDR, LMX358IDT uniquely balances ultra-low power (120 µA), full industrial temperature support, and rail-to-rail output in SO8 - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-dependent industrial and medical edge devices where longevity and environmental robustness are non-negotiable.

FAQ
Is LMX358IDT unity-gain stable?
Yes, the LMX358IDT is explicitly designed for unity-gain stability and does not require external compensation. Its internal compensation ensures ≥60° phase margin with capacitive loads up to 500 pF, enabling direct use as a voltage follower or buffer in sensor interface circuits without risk of oscillation.
What is the maximum capacitive load the LMX358IDT can drive reliably?
The LMX358IDT maintains stability with capacitive loads up to 500 pF when configured in unity gain, as confirmed by phase margin measurements across temperature. For loads exceeding 500 pF, a series resistor (≥10 Ω) between output and capacitance is recommended to preserve stability in active filter or ADC driver applications.
Does LMX358IDT support single-supply operation?
Yes - the LMX358IDT supports true single-supply operation from 2.3 V to 5.5 V. Its input common-mode range extends to VCC− (typically ground), and its rail-to-rail output swings within 100 mV of both supply rails, enabling full-swing signal processing without level-shifting circuitry.
How does LMX358IDT handle input overvoltage conditions?
The LMX358IDT features no phase reversal behavior: if input voltage exceeds the common-mode range (VCC− − 0.2 V to VCC+ − 1 V), the output remains well-behaved and predictable rather than latching or inverting. This eliminates risk of system fault propagation in sensor front-ends exposed to transient overvoltages.
