The LMV321, LMV358, and LMV324/LMV324S are
single, dual, and quad low-voltage (2.7 V to 5.5 V)
operational amplifiers with rail-to-rail output swing.
The LMV324S, which is a variation of the standard
LMV324, includes a power-saving shutdown feature
that reduces supply current to a maximum of 5 μA
per channel when the amplifiers are not needed.
Channels 1 and 2 together are put in shutdown, as
are channels 3 and 4. While in shutdown, the outputs
actively are pulled low.
The LMV321, LMV358, LMV324, and LMV324S are
the most cost-effective solutions for applications
where low-voltage operation, space saving, and low
cost are needed. These amplifiers are designed
specifically for low-voltage (2.7 V to 5 V) operation,
with performance specifications meeting or exceeding
the LM358 and LM324 devices that operate from 5 V
to 30 V. Additional features of the LMV3xx devices
are a common-mode input voltage range that
includes ground, 1-MHz unity-gain bandwidth, and
1-V/μs slew rate.
The LMV321 is available in the ultra-small DCK
(SC-70) package, which is approximately one-half the
size of the DBV (SOT-23) package. This package
saves space on printed circuit boards and enables
the design of small portable electronic devices. It also
allows the designer to place the device closer to the
signal source to reduce noise pickup and increase
signal integrity.
