Product details
Overview
TS924AID from STMicroelectronics is a rail-to-rail input/output quad operational amplifier optimized for 3 V and 5 V battery-powered audio systems. It delivers 80 mA output current (driving 32 Ω loads), 4 MHz gain bandwidth, 1.3 V/µs slew rate, 9 nV/√Hz input noise, and 900 µV max input offset voltage (TS924A grade) across –40 °C to +125 °C.
For engineers reviewing the TS924AID datasheet, TS924AID pinout, TS924AID application, or TS924AID equivalent, this device is selected for low-noise, high-output-current, rail-to-rail analog signal conditioning in portable audio, instrumentation, and multimedia interfaces where supply headroom is constrained.
Technical Context
The TS924A uses BiCMOS process technology to achieve simultaneous rail-to-rail input common-mode range (VCC– – 0.2 V to VCC+ + 0.2 V) and rail-to-rail output swing (within 100 mV of rails at 32 Ω load). Its 4 MHz unity-gain bandwidth and 68° phase margin ensure stable operation with capacitive loads up to 500 pF.
It features low THD (0.005% at 1 kHz, 2 Vpk-pk, RL = 600 Ω), 120 dB channel separation, and 80 dB CMRR at 3 V supply - enabling high-fidelity multi-channel amplification without crosstalk or distortion in compact PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 12 V - supports single-supply operation from Li-ion (3.0–3.7 V) up to dual-rail ±6 V configurations. |
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 900 µV - enables precision DC-coupled gain stages without significant output error at low gains. |
| Output Current (short-circuit) | 80 mA - drives 32 Ω headphones directly without external buffer transistors. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 4 MHz - supports audio bandwidth extension beyond 20 kHz with ≥20× closed-loop gain stability. |
| Input Voltage Noise Density | 9 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves SNR in microphone preamps and piezo sensor interfaces. |
| THD + Noise | 0.005% at 1 kHz - meets CD-quality audio fidelity requirements in line-level and headphone outputs. |
| Channel Separation | 120 dB - prevents inter-channel leakage in stereo/multi-channel audio routing. |
Pinout & Package
TS924AID is supplied in SO14 (plastic micropackage) with 14-pin wide-body outline per JEDEC MS-012. Pin 1 is marked by notch or dot; pin numbering follows standard counter-clockwise sequence from top view.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 9, 12 | Inverting input (A, B, C, D) | Accepts feedback network connection for standard op-amp configurations (inverting amp, active filter). |
| 2, 6, 10, 13 | Non-inverting input (A, B, C, D) | Provides high-impedance reference point for non-inverting gain stages and voltage followers. |
| 3, 7, 11, 14 | Output (A, B, C, D) | Delivers rail-to-rail swing with 80 mA sourcing/sinking capability into low-Z loads. |
| 4 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail - must be decoupled with ≥100 nF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
| 8 | VCC– | Negative supply rail or ground in single-supply mode - shared return path for all four amplifiers. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Input common-mode extends 0.2 V beyond rails; output swings within 100 mV of VCC+/VCC– at 32 Ω - maximizes dynamic range in 3 V systems. |
| High Output Drive | 80 mA continuous per amplifier - eliminates need for discrete output buffers in headphone and piezo drivers. |
| Low Input Noise | 9 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - critical for preserving signal integrity in front-end amplification of weak sensors. |
| Stable with Capacitive Loads | Guaranteed stability up to 500 pF - allows direct driving of long cables or ADC input capacitance without compensation. |
| ESD Protection | 3 kV HBM - enhances robustness during board assembly and end-user handling in consumer electronics. |
Applications
| Headphone Amplifier | Piezoelectric Speaker Driver |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Driving stereo 32 Ω dynamic headphones from a 3.3 V microcontroller DAC output in portable media players. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad op-amp configured as two independent stereo channels (each using two amplifiers for left/right), providing DC-coupled, low-distortion gain and output buffering. Use Value: 80 mA output current enables full-voltage swing into 32 Ω without clipping; 0.005% THD ensures CD-grade audio reproduction. |
Use Scenario: Exciting piezoelectric buzzer elements requiring high-voltage, low-current drive signals in smart home alarm panels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configured as high-slew-rate voltage follower to deliver fast transient response (1.3 V/µs) while matching piezo impedance. Use Value: Rail-to-rail output swing maximizes acoustic output amplitude; 4 MHz bandwidth supports sharp-edged tone generation up to 20 kHz. |
| Sound Card Line Driver | Multimedia System Buffer |
|
Use Scenario: Isolating and level-shifting analog audio signals between codec IC and external RCA jacks on PC sound cards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Used as unity-gain buffer per channel to prevent source loading and maintain signal integrity over PCB traces. Use Value: 120 dB channel separation prevents crosstalk between stereo channels; low 900 µV offset avoids audible DC pop at power-up. |
Use Scenario: Interfacing MPEG decoder ICs to analog video/audio DACs in set-top boxes with tight board space constraints. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides gain and impedance transformation between digital audio subsystem and analog output stage. Use Value: Single 3.3 V supply compatibility reduces power rail count; quad integration minimizes footprint versus discrete solutions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad rail-to-rail op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TS924ID | Higher max input offset voltage (1.8 mV vs. 0.9 mV typ., 5 mV max) and wider Vio drift (2 µV/°C same); otherwise identical specs. | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial signal conditioning where <1 mV offset not required. | Select TS924ID only when tighter offset spec is unnecessary and BOM cost reduction is prioritized. |
| TSX564IPT | Lower supply current (900 µA/op vs. 1.5 mA/op), smaller TSSOP14 package, but reduced output current (60 mA) and GBW (900 kHz). | Better for ultra-low-power sensor nodes; insufficient for 32 Ω headphone drive. | Choose TSX564IPT only for battery-life-critical, low-bandwidth applications - not for audio output stages. |
Compared with TS924ID, TS924AID offers tighter offset and drift for precision audio gain stages; compared with TSX564IPT, it trades higher quiescent current for 3.3× higher bandwidth and 33% greater output drive - making it uniquely suited for high-fidelity, low-voltage audio output.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the TS924AID can drive stably?
The TS924AID is specified to remain stable with capacitive loads up to 500 pF without external compensation. This is validated under standard test conditions (VCC = 3 V, RL = 600 Ω, CL = 100 pF), and confirmed via phase margin measurements of 68° at unity gain. Driving larger loads requires isolation resistors or feedback network adjustment.
Does TS924AID support true single-supply operation down to 2.7 V?
Yes - TS924AID operates from 2.7 V to 12 V with full rail-to-rail input and output functionality. At 2.7 V, it maintains 80 mA output current, 4 MHz GBW, and 900 µV max Vio across –40 °C to +125 °C, as verified in Tables 3 and 4 of the official datasheet (DocID5065 Rev 11).
Can TS924AID replace TS924ID in existing designs?
Yes - TS924AID is a direct functional and pin-compatible upgrade to TS924ID, offering improved input offset voltage (900 µV max vs. 5 mV max) and lower typical offset (0.9 mV vs. 3 mV). No layout or schematic changes are needed; only qualification testing for offset-sensitive circuits is recommended.
Is thermal derating required for continuous 80 mA output per channel?
At ambient 25 °C with SO14 package and no heatsink, continuous 80 mA per channel (320 mA total) raises junction temperature by ~21 °C (RthJA = 66 °C/W × 0.32 W ≈ 21 °C), well below the 150 °C limit. Derating is only necessary above 105 °C ambient or with >400 mA total dissipation - verified per absolute maximum ratings Table 1.
