Product details
Overview
TS321ILT from STMicroelectronics is a low-power, single bipolar operational amplifier in SOT23-5 package, designed for cost-sensitive space-constrained applications. It delivers 500 µA supply current, 2 mV (TS321A) or 4 mV (TS321) max input offset voltage, and rail-to-rail output swing from 0 to 3.5 V at 5 V supply - enabling use in single-supply sensor signal conditioning and portable battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the TS321ILT datasheet, TS321ILT pinout, TS321ILT application, or TS321ILT equivalent, key selection criteria include input bias current (20 nA), common-mode input range extending to ground, stability with capacitive loads, and compatibility with 3–30 V single or ±1.5–±15 V dual supplies.
Technical Context
The TS321ILT uses a bipolar input stage with PNP differential pair, enabling rail-to-rail input common-mode range down to ground and supporting true single-supply operation. Its internal compensation ensures unity-gain stability even with ≥100 pF capacitive loads at the output.
It features a 0.8 MHz gain-bandwidth product and 0.4 V/µs slew rate, optimized for DC-coupled amplification and low-frequency signal conditioning rather than high-speed AC applications. Phase margin is fixed at 60°, confirming robust small-signal stability across temperature and supply variations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 500 µA typical at 5 V - enables multi-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes |
| Input Offset Voltage | 4 mV max (TS321) / 2 mV max (TS321A) - sets baseline DC error in precision gain stages |
| Input Bias Current | 20 nA typical - minimizes voltage drop across high-impedance source networks (e.g., thermistors) |
| Output Swing | 0 to 3.5 V min at VCC = 5 V - supports full dynamic range into ADCs with 3.3 V reference |
| GBW Product | 0.8 MHz - sufficient for <10 kHz closed-loop bandwidth with gain ≤80 |
| CMRR | 65 dB min - rejects common-mode noise in industrial analog front-ends |
| SR | 0.4 V/µs - limits maximum undistorted sine frequency to ~64 kHz at 10 Vpp |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 plastic surface-mount package (ECOPACK® compliant), 2.9 mm × 2.8 mm footprint, 1.2 mm height, thermal resistance RthJA = 250 °C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting Input (−) | Differential input node; accepts signals referenced to ground or virtual ground |
| 2 | Non-inverting Input (+) | Differential input node; supports rail-to-rail common-mode range including ground |
| 3 | Output | Class-AB output stage capable of sourcing 20 mA and sinking 10 mA at 15 V supply |
| 4 | VCC+ | Positive supply terminal; operates from 3 to 30 V single or ±1.5 to ±15 V dual |
| 5 | VCC− | Negative supply or ground reference; required for dual-supply operation or biasing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low power consumption | 500 µA supply current enables integration into energy-harvesting and ultra-low-power IoT nodes |
| Rail-to-rail input common-mode range | VICM includes ground, eliminating need for level-shifting in single-supply sensor interfaces |
| Capacitive load stability | Stable with ≥100 pF output capacitance - simplifies anti-aliasing filter design without external isolation resistors |
| Wide supply voltage range | 3–30 V single or ±1.5–±15 V dual - supports legacy 24 V industrial rails and modern 3.3 V microcontroller domains |
| ESD robustness | 500 V HBM rating - improves manufacturing yield and field reliability in unshielded environments |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar single low-power op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM321DR | Higher supply current (800 µA typ), wider offset voltage spread (7 mV max), no A-grade variant | Lacks TS321A's 2 mV offset option; less suitable for precision DC gain stages | Prefer TS321ILT where <3 mV offset and sub-600 µA current are mandatory |
| MCP6001T-I/OT | CMOS input (1 pA bias), lower offset drift, but only 1.8–6 V supply range and 0.6 V output headroom | Cannot operate from 24 V rails or drive near-ground outputs - incompatible with industrial analog inputs | Choose MCP6001T-I/OT only for 3.3 V battery systems requiring femtoampere input leakage |
Compared with LM321DR and MCP6001T-I/OT, TS321ILT uniquely balances ultra-low quiescent current, ground-sensing input, wide supply range, and bipolar precision - making it optimal for industrial sensor nodes needing long life and 24 V compatibility.

FAQ
Is TS321ILT pin-compatible with LM321?
Yes - TS321ILT uses the same SOT23-5 pinout as LM321DR/LM321DBVR: Pin 1 = Inverting Input, Pin 2 = Non-inverting Input, Pin 3 = Output, Pin 4 = V+, Pin 5 = V−. No PCB redesign is needed for drop-in replacement in existing layouts.
Can TS321ILT operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes - its specified single-supply range starts at 3 V. At 3.3 V, output swing is guaranteed ≥0 to 2.8 V (typical), and input common-mode range extends from ground to ≥1.8 V, supporting direct interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers and ADCs.
What is the maximum capacitive load TS321ILT can drive stably?
TS321ILT is characterized for stable operation with ≥100 pF capacitive loads at unity gain, per Figure 3 and macromodel validation. For loads >200 pF, adding a 10–50 Ω series resistor between output and capacitor restores phase margin without degrading DC accuracy.
Does TS321ILT have ESD protection on all pins?
Yes - per Table 1, it features 500 V HBM, 200 V MM, and 1000 V CDM ESD ratings on all five pins. This exceeds JEDEC JS-001 Class 2 requirements and ensures robustness during automated assembly and field deployment.
