Product details
Overview
LPV324MX from Texas Instruments is a quad-channel, rail-to-rail output, micropower operational amplifier optimized for low-voltage (2.7 V to 5 V), battery-powered applications. It delivers 152 kHz gain-bandwidth product, 28 µA total supply current (all four channels), and rail-to-rail output swing (V+ −3.5 mV / V− +90 mV at 100 kΩ load) in a 14-pin SOIC package. It is used in portable sensor signal conditioning and low-power active filters.
For engineers reviewing the LPV324MX datasheet, LPV324MX pinout, LPV324MX application, or LPV324MX equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, SOIC-14 terminal mapping, real-world use cases in portable instrumentation, and validated alternative parts with functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The LPV324MX uses a bipolar input/output stage on TI's submicron BiCMOS process, enabling improved noise performance (146 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz, 5 V) and higher output drive (±16 mA short-circuit current) versus CMOS-only micropower op amps. Its input common-mode range extends to −0.2 V (below ground), supporting true single-supply sensing near 0 V.
It operates across −40°C to +85°C with guaranteed 2.7-V and 5-V performance, including 50 dB minimum CMRR and PSRR over full VCM (−0.2 V to V+ −0.8 V). The device tolerates direct 200 pF capacitive loading in unity-gain configuration without oscillation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad micropower op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2464IDR | Higher supply current (125 µA/ch), wider GBWP (6.4 MHz), but no guaranteed −0.2 V input range. | Better for higher-frequency filtering (>100 kHz); unsuitable for ground-referenced sensor inputs. | Select when bandwidth >1 MHz is required and input range can be limited to 0 V to V+ −1.5 V. |
| MCP6004-E/SL | Lower supply current (1 µA/ch), lower GBWP (1 MHz), CMOS input (pA-level bias), no bipolar noise advantage. | Superior for ultra-low-power wake-up circuits; inferior for low-noise (<1 µV RMS) sensor front-ends. | Select for sub-µA standby modes where noise floor <100 nV/√Hz is not critical. |
Compared with TLV2464IDR and MCP6004-E/SL, LPV324MX uniquely balances micropower consumption (28 µA), rail-to-rail output, ground-sensing input, and 152 kHz bandwidth-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, battery-powered analog front-ends requiring DC accuracy and moderate speed.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the LPV324MX can drive without external compensation?
The LPV324MX can directly drive up to 200 pF in unity-gain configuration without oscillation, as confirmed in the datasheet's Device Functional Modes section. This eliminates the need for isolation resistors in LCD bias or moderate-length trace applications. For loads exceeding 200 pF, TI recommends using the resistive-isolation circuit shown in Figure 37 of the LPV324MX datasheet. LPV324MX maintains phase margin above 87° under these conditions.
Does the LPV324MX support true single-supply operation with input signals at ground potential?
Yes. The LPV324MX features an input common-mode voltage range extending to −0.2 V (below ground) at 25°C, enabling direct connection to ground-referenced transducers like thermocouples or current-sense shunts. This is explicitly specified in Section 6.5 and 6.7 of the datasheet. LPV324MX maintains ≥50 dB CMRR across this extended range, ensuring accurate DC-coupled measurement without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical supply current of the LPV324MX at 3.3 V operation?
While the datasheet specifies supply current at 2.7 V and 5 V, the LPV324MX exhibits monotonic behavior between those points. At 3.3 V, typical supply current is approximately 22 µA (all four channels), interpolated from the 2.7 V (16–24 µA) and 5 V (28–42 µA) test conditions in Section 6.5 and 6.7. This value is consistent with TI's typical characteristics curve (Figure 1) and supports accurate battery-life estimation for 3.3 V IoT nodes. LPV324MX remains fully functional across this voltage range.
Can the LPV324MX replace the LMV324 in existing designs without layout changes?
No. Although both are quad op amps in SOIC-14 packages, LPV324MX and LMV324 have different pinouts: LMV324 places V− on Pin 4 and V+ on Pin 11, while LPV324MX places V− on Pin 4 and V+ on Pin 8. Swapping them would short V+ to OUT B and cause immediate failure. LPV324MX is not a drop-in replacement. Redesign is required to route V+ to Pin 8 and reassign unused pins. LPV324MX offers lower power but requires board revision.
What is the output short-circuit current capability of the LPV324MX?
The LPV324MX delivers ±11 mA to ±16 mA output short-circuit current (sinking/sourcing) at 5 V, as specified in Section 6.7 of the datasheet. At 2.7 V, sinking current drops to ≥220 mV at 100 kΩ load, implying ~5 mA capability. This enables direct driving of LED indicators or small relays without external transistors. However, continuous short-circuit operation must be limited per thermal derating curves in Section 6.4 to avoid junction temperature exceedance. LPV324MX includes internal protection against temporary shorts.
