Product details
Overview
LP2904DR from Texas Instruments is a dual ultra-low-power operational amplifier optimized for battery-powered and industrial sensing applications. It delivers 54 μA typical supply current, 2 mV typical input offset voltage, and rail-to-rail input operation down to GND, enabling single-supply signal conditioning in portable instrumentation and LCD bias circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LP2904DR datasheet, LP2904DR pinout, LP2904DR application, or LP2904DR equivalent, key selection criteria include its –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range, SOIC-8 package compatibility with LM2904/LM358, and verified performance at 3 V to 32 V supply voltages with input common-mode range extending to ground.
Technical Context
The LP2904DR integrates two independent, unity-gain-stable op-amps with Darlington-source/emitter-follower output stages that maintain quiescent current independence from load current. Its input common-mode range spans 0 V to VCC – 1.5 V, supporting true single-supply operation without level-shifting circuitry.
It operates across 3 V–32 V supplies with guaranteed functionality over –40°C to +85°C, distinguishing it from the LP358 (0°C–70°C). Electrical characteristics-including 40–70 V/mV large-signal voltage gain and 80–90 dB CMRR-are specified separately for full-temperature-range performance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 54 μA typical per amplifier - enables multi-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes |
| Input Offset Voltage | 2 mV typical - supports accurate DC-coupled amplification of low-level sensor signals |
| Input Bias Current | 2 nA typical - minimizes voltage error in high-impedance source interfaces (e.g., thermistors) |
| Common-Mode Input Range | 0 V to VCC – 1.5 V - allows direct connection of GND-referenced sensors without biasing resistors |
| Output Swing (Low) | 0.7 V typical at 0.35 mA sink - supports logic-level interfacing when driving TTL/CMOS inputs |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for automotive interior, industrial control, and outdoor metering environments |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 100 kHz - sufficient for DC–10 kHz signal conditioning in precision analog front-ends |
Pinout & Package
LP2904DR is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package measuring 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm, with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish (MSL Level-1).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT1 | Channel 1 output - drives external loads up to 10 mA sink/source; not rail-to-rail |
| 2 | IN1− | Channel 1 inverting input - accepts differential signals within 0 V to VCC – 1.5 V common-mode range |
| 3 | IN1+ | Channel 1 noninverting input - enables unity-gain buffer or precision comparator configurations |
| 4 | GND | Analog ground reference - must be connected directly to system ground plane for noise immunity |
| 5 | IN2+ | Channel 2 noninverting input - electrically isolated from Channel 1; supports dual independent signal paths |
| 6 | IN2− | Channel 2 inverting input - shares same input stage architecture and specifications as IN1− |
| 7 | OUT2 | Channel 2 output - identical electrical behavior to OUT1; no crosstalk between channels |
| 8 | VCC | Positive supply rail - accepts 3 V–32 V; requires 0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low supply current | 54 μA per amplifier enables >10-year operation on coin-cell batteries in continuous-sense applications |
| Ground-sensing input stage | Input common-mode range includes 0 V - eliminates need for input bias networks in single-supply transducer interfaces |
| Pin compatibility with industry standards | SOIC-8 pinout matches LM2904 and LM358 - allows drop-in replacement without PCB redesign |
| Wide supply voltage range | 3 V–32 V operation supports both low-voltage portable systems and industrial 24 V rails |
| Thermal robustness | Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 118.8°C/W - sustains full performance under 85°C ambient conditions |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2904DR | Same SOIC-8 pinout and basic specs, but wider input offset voltage (3 mV typ), higher supply current (700 μA), and narrower temp range (0°C–70°C) | Not suitable for extended-temperature industrial or automotive interior use; higher power draw limits battery life | Select LM2904DR only for cost-sensitive, non-battery, commercial-temp applications where legacy design reuse is required |
| TLV2462IDR | Rail-to-rail output swing, lower offset (1.6 mV), but higher supply current (550 μA) and narrower VCC range (2.7 V–6 V) | Cannot replace LP2904DR in 12 V/24 V systems or ultra-low-power designs; superior for precision low-voltage ADC drivers | Choose TLV2462IDR when rail-to-rail output and sub-mV offset are critical, and supply voltage is ≤6 V |
Compared with LM2904DR and TLV2462IDR, the LP2904DR uniquely balances ultra-low quiescent current, extended temperature range, and wide supply voltage-making it the only option among the three viable for long-life, wide-input-range, industrial-grade analog signal conditioning.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the LP2904DR?
The LP2904DR has an absolute maximum supply voltage of 32 V, with recommended operation from 3 V to 32 V. Exceeding 32 V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table in the datasheet. For reliable long-term operation, TI specifies VCC ≤30 V in electrical test conditions.
Does the LP2904DR support true rail-to-rail input and output operation?
The LP2904DR supports rail-to-rail input operation down to GND (0 V) and up to VCC – 1.5 V, but does not provide rail-to-rail output swing. Its output can typically swing to within ~1.9 V of VCC (high side) and ~0.7 V above GND (low side) under 0.35 mA load, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table for LP2904DR.
Is the LP2904DR pin-compatible with the LM2904 and LM358?
Yes, the LP2904DR uses the identical SOIC-8 pinout as the LM2904 and LM358, with matching pin functions: Pin 1 (OUT1), Pin 2 (IN1−), Pin 3 (IN1+), Pin 4 (GND), Pin 5 (IN2+), Pin 6 (IN2−), Pin 7 (OUT2), Pin 8 (VCC). This enables direct substitution in existing designs without layout changes.
What is the operating temperature range specified for the LP2904DR?
The LP2904DR is rated for operation from –40°C to +85°C, as explicitly stated in the Recommended Operating Conditions table. This distinguishes it from the LP358 (0°C to 70°C) and makes it suitable for automotive interior, industrial control, and outdoor metering applications.
Can the LP2904DR drive capacitive loads without instability?
The LP2904DR is unity-gain stable and characterized for driving ≥100 pF capacitive loads, as indicated by its 100 kHz gain-bandwidth product and internal compensation. However, for loads >500 pF, TI recommends adding a small series resistor (e.g., 10–50 Ω) between the output and capacitance to maintain phase margin and prevent oscillation.
