Product details
Overview
TS941IDT from STMicroelectronics is a single-channel rail-to-rail output micropower operational amplifier designed for ultra-low-power signal conditioning in battery-constrained systems. It delivers 1.2 µA supply current, 10 kHz gain bandwidth, 1 pA input bias current, and rail-to-rail output swing (e.g., 2.85 V at 3 V supply with 10 kΩ load), enabling precision sensing in smoke detectors and portable pH meters.
For engineers reviewing the TS941IDT datasheet, TS941IDT pinout, TS941IDT application, or TS941IDT equivalent, this device is selected for micropower analog front-ends requiring stable operation from 2.5 V to 10 V, sub-µA quiescent current, and CMOS-input compatibility with high-impedance sensors.
Technical Context
The TS941IDT employs a CMOS input stage delivering 1 pA typical input bias current and operates across a 2.5 V–10 V single supply, maintaining constant 1.2 µA ICC over voltage range - critical for end-of-battery-life performance. Its rail-to-rail output stage achieves 2.85 V high-level and 100 mV low-level output at 3 V/10 kΩ, supporting full dynamic range in low-voltage systems.
It features 85 dB common-mode rejection and 85 dB supply voltage rejection at 5 V, with 10 kHz unity-gain bandwidth and 3 V/ms slew rate - optimized for DC-coupled sensor amplification and slow-varying industrial signals rather than high-speed AC applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 1.2 µA typical - enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell-powered smoke detectors |
| Input Bias Current | 1 pA typical - preserves signal integrity when interfacing with high-impedance pH electrodes or piezoresistive sensors |
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 10 kHz - sufficient for DC to low-frequency (<1 kHz) sensor signal amplification without instability |
| Rail-to-Rail Output | 2.85 V VOH / 100 mV VOL at 3 V/10 kΩ - maximizes usable ADC input range in 3 V microcontroller systems |
| Input Offset Voltage | 10 mV max (TS941) - sets baseline accuracy for uncalibrated low-cost instrumentation |
| CMRR / PSRR | 85 dB each at 5 V - rejects power supply noise and common-mode interference in noisy industrial environments |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for use in outdoor fire alarm enclosures and portable medical devices |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 package: compact 2.9 mm × 2.8 mm surface-mount outline with exposed pad not present; RoHS-compliant ECOPACK® grade; thermal resistance RthJA = 250°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Output | Amplified rail-to-rail voltage signal; drives 10 kΩ loads to within 100 mV of rails |
| 2 (IN–) | Inverting Input | Differential node for feedback configuration; 1 pA bias current minimizes error in high-Z networks |
| 3 (IN+) | Non-inverting Input | High-impedance CMOS input; accepts sensor signals up to VCC – 1.3 V common-mode range |
| 4 (V–) | Negative Supply / Ground | Reference for single-supply operation; tied to system ground in 2.5–10 V configurations |
| 5 (V+) | Positive Supply | Accepts 2.5 V–10 V; supply current remains stable across this range for predictable battery discharge |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar micropower rail-to-rail op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LMV321IDBVR | Higher 65 µA ICC; 1 MHz GBW; 7 V max supply | Not suitable for >5-year battery life; better for higher-speed sensor interfaces | Select when bandwidth >100 kHz required and supply current <10 µA is not mandatory |
| TLV2461CDBVR | 45 µA ICC; 6.4 V max supply; 2.5 V min supply; 6.4 MHz GBW | Unsuitable for 9 V battery systems; superior AC performance but 37× higher quiescent current | Choose only if >100 kHz closed-loop bandwidth is needed and battery life is secondary |
Compared with LMV321IDBVR and TLV2461CDBVR, TS941IDT uniquely balances sub-µA supply current, rail-to-rail output, and 2.5–10 V operation - making it irreplaceable in long-life, wide-supply, low-bandwidth sensor front-ends where power budget is constrained to nanoamps per hour.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for TS941IDT?
The absolute maximum supply voltage is 12 V, but the recommended operating range is 2.5 V to 10 V per the datasheet. Operation above 10 V risks exceeding safe junction temperature under load and voids parametric guarantees - especially critical in SOT23-5 due to its 250°C/W thermal resistance.
Does TS941IDT support true rail-to-rail input?
No - TS941IDT has rail-to-rail *output* only. Its common-mode input voltage range is specified as VDD − 0.2 V to VCC − 1.3 V, meaning the inputs cannot accept signals within 1.3 V of the positive rail. This limits direct sensing of VCC-referenced signals without level-shifting.
Can TS941IDT drive capacitive loads?
It is stable with ≤50 pF capacitive load per Figure 12 (phase margin ≥65°). Driving larger capacitive loads (e.g., long PCB traces or ADC input caps) requires isolation via a series resistor or external compensation - otherwise, overshoot and ringing occur in step response per Figure 13.
Is TS941IDT qualified for automotive applications?
No - TS941IDT is rated for −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. ST does not specify automotive-grade screening, humidity testing, or failure-in-time (FIT) data for this part; use TSZ121 or similar automotive-qualified op-amps for vehicle systems.
