Product details
Overview
TS924IN from STMicroelectronics is a rail-to-rail input/output quad BiCMOS operational amplifier optimized for 3 V and 5 V battery-powered audio systems. It delivers 80 mA output current, 4 MHz gain-bandwidth product, 1.3 V/µs slew rate, 9 nV/√Hz input noise, and operates from 2.7 V to 12 V supply. Used in headphone amplifiers and piezoelectric speaker drivers where low distortion (0.005% THD) and high channel separation (120 dB) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TS924IN datasheet, TS924IN pinout, TS924IN application, or TS924IN equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, SO14 package details, rail-to-rail performance context, thermal and ESD ratings (3 kV HBM), and real-world audio system integration guidance - all confirmed against ST's production datasheet DocID5065 Rev 11.
Technical Context
The TS924IN uses a BiCMOS input stage enabling rail-to-rail common-mode input 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 GBP and 68° phase margin ensure stability with capacitive loads up to 500 pF without external compensation.
It features low input offset voltage (≤1.8 mV max for TS924A variant), 2 µV/°C drift, and 15–100 nA input bias current. The 80 mA short-circuit output current enables direct driving of 32 Ω headphones and piezo elements without external buffers, while 9 nV/√Hz noise supports high-fidelity signal paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 12 V - supports single-supply portable systems (3 V, 5 V) and higher-voltage line-powered designs. |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 4 MHz - enables stable unity-gain buffer and gain-of-10 configurations up to ~400 kHz with adequate phase margin. |
| Slew Rate | 1.3 V/µs - sufficient for 2 Vpk-pk signals at 100 kHz without slew-induced distortion in audio paths. |
| Output Current | 80 mA - drives 32 Ω loads to ±2.6 V swing at 3 V supply, eliminating need for external power stages in headphone amps. |
| Input Noise Density | 9 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves SNR in low-level preamp and microphone interface stages. |
| THD + Noise | 0.005 % at 1 kHz, 2 Vpk-pk, RL = 600 Ω - meets high-fidelity audio requirements for consumer multimedia boards. |
| Channel Separation | 120 dB - prevents crosstalk between stereo channels in compact quad-amplifier layouts. |
Pinout & Package
TS924IN is supplied in SO14 (plastic small outline) package per JEDEC MS-012, with 1.27 mm pitch, 8.75 mm × 4.0 mm body, and 1.75 mm height. Pin 1 is marked by notch or dot; top view orientation matches standard SOIC layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 9, 13 | Inverting Input (A, B, C, D) | Differential input node for each op-amp; accepts rail-to-rail common-mode voltage. |
| 2, 6, 10, 14 | Non-inverting Input (A, B, C, D) | Differential input node; matched bias current minimizes offset error in precision configurations. |
| 3, 7, 11, 12 | Output (A, B, C, D) | Rail-to-rail output capable of sourcing/sinking 80 mA; stable with ≤500 pF capacitive load. |
| 4 | VCC+ | Positive supply rail; must be decoupled locally with ≥100 nF ceramic capacitor. |
| 8 | VCC– | Negative supply rail (GND in single-supply); shared return path for all four amplifiers. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail I/O | Input common-mode range extends 0.2 V beyond rails; output swings within 100 mV of VCC+/VCC– at 32 Ω, enabling full dynamic range in low-voltage systems. |
| High Output Drive | 80 mA continuous per amplifier allows direct connection to 32 Ω headphones and piezo transducers without external boost stages. |
| Low Noise & Distortion | 9 nV/√Hz input noise and 0.005 % THD at 1 kHz preserve signal integrity in audio front-ends and active filters. |
| Capacitive Load Stability | Stable with up to 500 pF load capacitance - eliminates need for isolation resistors when driving cables or ADC inputs. |
| ESD Robustness | 3 kV HBM rating protects against handling damage during PCB assembly and field service in consumer electronics. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TS924IPT | TSSOP14 package (5.0 mm × 6.4 mm), thinner profile, finer 0.65 mm pitch - requires reflow-compatible layout. | Better suited for space-constrained portable PCBs; thermal resistance higher (100 °C/W vs. 66 °C/W for SO14). | Select when board area is limited and automated assembly supports fine-pitch TSSOP; verify thermal derating at 80 mA load. |
| TS924AID | Enhanced input offset voltage (≤900 µV max vs. ≤1.8 mV for TS924IN), same SO14 package and pinout. | Preferred for precision DC-coupled instrumentation paths where offset error directly impacts measurement accuracy. | Choose for sensor signal conditioning or medical-grade audio front-ends requiring sub-mV offset; otherwise TS924IN offers identical AC performance at lower cost. |
Compared with TS924IPT, TS924IN offers superior thermal performance and easier hand-soldering; compared with TS924AID, it trades 0.9 mV higher offset for broader availability and lower unit cost - making TS924IN optimal for general-purpose audio buffering where AC fidelity dominates DC accuracy.

FAQ
Is TS924IN pin-compatible with TS924IPT?
Yes - both share identical pin numbering and functional assignment across all 14 pins. The only difference is package geometry: TS924IN uses SO14 (8.75 mm × 4.0 mm), while TS924IPT uses TSSOP14 (5.0 mm × 6.4 mm). PCB footprint and schematic symbols must be updated for pitch (1.27 mm vs. 0.65 mm) and thermal pad presence.
What is the maximum safe capacitive load for TS924IN without external compensation?
TS924IN remains unconditionally stable with capacitive loads up to 500 pF, as verified in ST's datasheet Figure 3 and Table 3. Loads exceeding 500 pF - such as long coaxial cables or high-CIN ADCs - require a series isolation resistor (typically 10–47 Ω) between output and load to maintain phase margin above 60°.
Does TS924IN support true split-rail operation (e.g., ±2.5 V)?
Yes - TS924IN operates with dual supplies from ±1.35 V to ±6 V (i.e., total supply 2.7 V to 12 V). In ±2.5 V configuration, its rail-to-rail input accepts VIN from –2.7 V to +2.7 V, and output swings within 100 mV of ±2.5 V rails, enabling symmetric signal handling in professional audio line receivers.
How does TS924IN's 80 mA output current translate to practical load capability?
At 3 V supply, TS924IN delivers ±2.63 V output into 32 Ω (per datasheet Table 3), yielding 82 mW per channel - sufficient for loud headphone playback. At 5 V, it sustains ±4.4 V into 32 Ω (193 mW), supporting higher-SPL transducers. Continuous 80 mA operation requires PCB copper area ≥1 cm² under pin 4/8 and ambient <70 °C.
