Product details
Overview
TS524IDT from STMicroelectronics is a precision low-noise quad operational amplifier designed for high-fidelity audio signal conditioning and sensor interface circuits. It delivers 950 µV max input offset voltage, 4.5 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 15 MHz gain bandwidth product, 7 V/µs slew rate, and 0.002% THD at 20 Hz–20 kHz - enabling clean amplification in preamplifier and active filter stages.
For engineers reviewing the TS524IDT datasheet, TS524IDT pinout, TS524IDT application, or TS524IDT equivalent, key selection criteria include its rail-to-rail output swing capability (±13.5 V into 600 Ω), symmetrical ±29 mA source/sink current, and guaranteed operation from −40°C to +105°C across dual ±2.5 V to ±15 V supplies.
Technical Context
The TS524IDT integrates four independent high-performance op-amps on a single die with matched internal transistor pairs ensuring low ∆Vio drift (2 µV/°C) and high channel separation (120 dB). Its macromodel supports accurate SPICE simulation of transient response, distortion, and noise performance under real-world load conditions.
Designed for dual-supply operation, it features ±13 V common-mode input range and ±14.6 V output swing into 10 kΩ, with stable unity-gain compensation (55° phase margin, CL = 0 pF) and full-power bandwidth of 120 kHz at 27 Vpp output - critical for wide-dynamic-range analog front-ends.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | Max 0.95 mV at TA = 25°C; ensures ≤1.8 mV error over full −40°C to +105°C range for precision DC-coupled gain stages. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 15 MHz typical; enables stable closed-loop gain ≥10 at 1.5 MHz or ≥100 at 150 kHz without peaking. |
| Slew Rate | 7 V/µs typical; supports 20 kHz full-scale sine output up to 14 Vpp without slewing-induced distortion. |
| THD + Noise | 0.002% at 3 Vrms, 20 Hz–20 kHz; meets Hi-Fi preamp line-level requirements with minimal harmonic corruption. |
| Output Short-Circuit Current | ±29 mA sink/source; drives 600 Ω loads directly while maintaining linearity and thermal safety. |
| Common-Mode Rejection | Min 80 dB; rejects supply ripple and ground bounce in single-ended sensor interfaces. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±2.5 V to ±15 V; compatible with legacy ±12 V and modern ±5 V analog rails without level-shifting. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 9, 13 | Inverting Input (A/B/C/D) | Differential input node per amplifier; high-impedance (175 kΩ), low-capacitance (12 pF) for stable feedback design. |
| 2, 6, 10, 14 | Non-inverting Input (A/B/C/D) | Reference input for each op-amp; matched to inverting inputs for CMR optimization. |
| 3, 7, 11, 12 | Output (A/B/C/D) | Class-AB output stage delivering ±14.6 V swing into 10 kΩ and ±13.2 V into 600 Ω. |

| 8 | Negative Supply (VCC−) | Connects to −VCC; supports down to −15 V; decoupling required within 1 cm for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM324DT | Higher Vio (3 mV max), lower GBP (1.2 MHz), no macromodel, 700 µA per amp supply current. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive industrial controls but unsuitable for audio or precision sensor front-ends. | Select only when budget constraints outweigh noise, speed, and THD requirements. |
| NE5532D | Lower noise (5 nV/√Hz), higher slew rate (9 V/µs), but dual-only (not quad); requires two packages for same channel count. | Better for discrete audio stages; not pin-compatible; increases PCB area and BOM count. | Choose when ultimate audio fidelity is needed and board space allows dual-device layout. |
Compared with LM324DT and NE5532D, TS524IDT uniquely balances low noise, quad integration, and SPICE-model support - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-channel-count precision analog systems where simulation fidelity and thermal stability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended supply voltage for TS524IDT?
The absolute maximum supply voltage is ±18 V, but the device is characterized and guaranteed for stable operation from ±2.5 V to ±15 V. Operating beyond ±15 V risks exceeding junction temperature limits and invalidating parametric guarantees, especially under load or elevated ambient temperatures.
Does TS524IDT support single-supply operation?
No - TS524IDT is specified exclusively for dual-supply operation (±VCC). Its input common-mode range extends to ±13 V and output swing to ±14.6 V, but it lacks rail-to-rail input or true single-supply biasing architecture. For single-supply designs, consider ST's TS912 or TLV2464 alternatives.
Is the TS524IDT pinout compatible with other SO14 quad op-amps like LM324 or TL074?
No - TS524IDT uses a non-standard pinout: pins 1/5/9/13 are inverting inputs, pins 2/6/10/14 are non-inverting inputs, and pins 3/7/11/12 are outputs. This differs from LM324 (outputs on pins 1/7/8/14) and TL074 (outputs on pins 1/7/8/14), requiring PCB redesign for substitution.
How does the 2 µV/°C input offset drift impact long-term calibration in sensor systems?
Over a 100°C temperature span (−40°C to +60°C), the drift contributes ≤200 µV of additional offset error - equivalent to ~0.02% of full-scale for a ±10 V output range. This is acceptable for 12-bit systems but may require periodic auto-zeroing or software correction in 16-bit+ precision applications.
