Product details
Overview
LPV321M5X from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, micropower, rail-to-rail output operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage (2.7 V to 5 V), battery-powered applications. It delivers 152 kHz gain-bandwidth product, 9 µA supply current at 5 V, and rail-to-rail output swing (V+ −3.5 mV / V− +90 mV at 100 kΩ load) while operating across −40°C to +85°C. It is used in portable sensor signal conditioning and low-power active filters.
For engineers reviewing the LPV321M5X datasheet, LPV321M5X pinout, LPV321M5X application, or LPV321M5X equivalent, key selection considerations include micropower operation under 10 µA, guaranteed rail-to-rail output performance at 2.7 V, input common-mode range extending to ground, SC70-5 package footprint constraints, and bipolar-input noise performance for precision DC-coupled sensing.
Technical Context
The LPV321M5X employs a bipolar input stage and BiCMOS output stage on Texas Instruments' submicron silicon-gate process, enabling low input bias current (1.7–50 nA), low input voltage noise (146 nV/√Hz at 5 V), and high output drive capability (20–60 mA sinking). Its architecture supports stable unity-gain operation with up to 200 pF capacitive load without external compensation.
It operates from single-supply (2.7 V to 5 V) or split-supply configurations, with input common-mode voltage range specified from −0.2 V to V+ − 0.8 V and rail-to-rail output swing validated at both 2.7 V and 5 V supply rails. The device exhibits no crossover distortion and maintains ≥50 dB CMRR over its full common-mode range.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar general-purpose low-voltage op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP6001T-E/OT | Higher supply current (100 µA), lower GBWP (1 MHz), CMOS input (pA-level IB), no ground-sensing input (VCM = VSS + 0.3 V min) | Better for high-impedance source buffering; unsuitable for true ground-referenced inputs or ultra-low-power designs | Select when input bias current is critical and power budget allows >10× higher IQ; avoid where VCM must include 0 V. |
| TSV611ILT | Lower supply current (620 nA), lower GBWP (160 kHz), rail-to-rail I/O, but only specified down to 1.5 V supply | Superior for sub-2 V energy-harvesting systems; lacks 2.7 V/5 V performance validation and bipolar noise performance | Prefer for nano-power applications below 2 V; LPV321M5X remains optimal for 2.7–5 V industrial/portable designs requiring proven noise and drive specs. |
Compared with MCP6001T-E/OT and TSV611ILT, LPV321M5X uniquely balances micropower (9 µA), rail-to-rail output, ground-sensing input, and 152 kHz bandwidth in a 2.0 × 1.25 mm SC70 package - making it the most suitable choice for cost-sensitive, space-constrained, battery-operated signal chains requiring DC precision and low-voltage robustness.

FAQ
What supply voltage range is guaranteed for LPV321M5X operation?
LPV321M5X is fully specified and tested across 2.7 V to 5 V single-supply operation, with all key parameters - including gain-bandwidth product, input offset voltage, and rail-to-rail output swing - validated at both endpoints. Operation below 2.7 V is not characterized and may result in degraded performance or instability.
Does LPV321M5X support true ground-referenced input signals?
Yes. LPV321M5X features an input common-mode voltage range extending to −0.2 V (relative to V−), enabling direct connection of sensors or signal sources referenced to system ground in single-supply configurations - a key differentiator from many CMOS-input op amps that require ≥0.3 V headroom.
What is the maximum capacitive load LPV321M5X can drive without external compensation?
LPV321M5X is unity-gain stable and characterized to drive up to 200 pF directly at its output without oscillation or excessive peaking. For loads exceeding 200 pF, TI recommends adding a series isolation resistor (e.g., 10–100 Ω) between the LPV321M5X output and the capacitive load to maintain phase margin and pulse fidelity.
How does the SC70-5 package of LPV321M5X compare to SOT-23-5 in layout impact?
The SC70-5 package of LPV321M5X measures 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm - roughly 55% smaller than the 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm SOT-23-5 footprint. This reduction enables tighter placement near signal sources to minimize trace inductance and noise pickup, and supports higher-density routing in compact PCBs such as those used in hearing aids and smart patches.
Is LPV321M5X suitable for driving ADC reference inputs?
Yes. LPV321M5X provides rail-to-rail output swing, low output impedance (<1 Ω typical), and 20–60 mA sink capability - making it well-suited to buffer precision voltage references into ADC reference pins. Its 9 µA supply current avoids loading sensitive reference circuits, and its low noise preserves effective resolution in 12–16-bit converters.
