LMV321/LMV358/LMV324Single/Dual/Quad
General Purpose,Low Voltage,Rail-to-Rail Output Operational Amplifiers
General Description
The LMV358/324are low voltage (2.7–5.5V)versions of the dual and quad commodity op amps,LM358/324,which cur-rently operate at 5–30V.The LMV321is the single version.The LMV321/358/324are the most cost effective solutions for the applications where low voltage operation,space sav-ing and low price are needed.They offer specifications that meet or exceed the familiar LM358/324.The LMV321/358/324have rail-to-rail output swing capability and the input common-mode voltage range includes ground.They all ex-hibit excellent speed-power ratio,achieving 1MHz of band-width and 1V/μs of slew rate with low supply current.
The LMV321is available in space saving SC70-5,which is approximately half the size of SOT23-5.The small package saves space on pc 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.
The chips are built with National’s advanced submicron silicon-gate BiCMOS process.The LMV321/358/324have bipolar input and output stages for improved noise perfor-mance and higher output current drive.

Application Notes
1.0BENEFITS OF THE LMV321/358/324
Size:The small footprints of the LMV321/358/324packages save space on printed circuit boards,and enable the design of smaller electronic products,such as cellular phones,pag-ers,or other portable systems.The low profile of the LMV321/358/324make them possible to use in PCMCIA type III cards.Signal Integrity
Signals can pick up noise between the signal source and the amplifier.By using a physically smaller amplifier package,the LMV321/358/324can be placed closer to the signal source,reducing noise pickup and increasing signal integrity.Simplified Board Layout
These products help you to avoid using long pc traces in your pc board layout.This means that no additional compo-nents,such as capacitors and resistors,are needed to filter out the unwanted signals due to the interference between the long pc traces.Low Supply Current
These devices will help you to maximize battery life.They are ideal for battery powered systems.
Low Supply Voltage
National provides guaranteed performance at 2.7V and 5V.These guarantees ensure operation throughout the battery lifetime.
Rail-to-Rail Output
Rail-to-rail output swing provides maximum possible dy-namic range at the output.This is particularly important when operating on low supply voltages.
Input Includes Ground
Allows direct sensing near GND in single supply operation.The differential input voltage may be larger than V +without damaging the device.Protection should be provided to pre-vent the input voltages from going negative more than ?0.3V (at 25?C).An input clamp diode with a resistor to the IC input terminal can be used.
Ease Of Use &Crossover Distortion
The LMV321/358/324offer specifications similar to the fa-miliar LM324.In addition,the new LMV321/358/324effec-tively eliminate the output crossover distortion.The scope photos in Figure 1and Figure 2compare the output swing of the LMV324and the LM324in a voltage follower configura-tion,with V S =±2.5V and R L (=2k ?)connected to GND.It is apparent that the crossover distortion has been eliminated in the new LMV324.
2.0CAPACITIVE LOAD TOLERANCE
The LMV321/358/324can directly drive 200pF in unity-gain without oscillation.The unity-gain follower is the most sensi-tive configuration to capacitive loading.Direct capacitive loading reduces the phase margin of amplifiers.The combi-nation of the amplifier’s output impedance and the capacitive load induces phase lag.This results in either an under-damped pulse response or oscillation.To drive a heavier capacitive load,circuit in Figure 3can be used.

Application Notes(Continued)
In Figure3,the isolation resistor R ISO and the load capacitor
C L form a pole to increase stability by adding more phase
margin to the overall system.The desired performance de-
pends on the value of R ISO.The bigger the R ISO resistor
value,the more stable V OUT will be.Figure4is an output
waveform of Figure3using620?for R ISO and510pF for C L..
The circuit in Figure5is an improvement to the one in Figure
3because it provides DC accuracy as well as AC stability.If
there were a load resistor in Figure3,the output would be
voltage divided by R ISO and the load resistor.Instead,in
Figure5,R F provides the DC accuracy by using feed-
forward techniques to connect V IN to R L.Caution is needed
in choosing the value of R F due to the input bias current of
the LMV321/358/324.C F and R ISO serve to counteract the
loss of phase margin by feeding the high frequency compo-
nent of the output signal back to the amplifier’s inverting
input,thereby preserving phase margin in the overall feed-
back loop.Increased capacitive drive is possible by increas-
ing the value of C F.This in turn will slow down the pulse
response.
3.0INPUT BIAS CURRENT CANCELLATION
The LMV321/358/324family has a bipolar input stage.The
typical input bias current of LMV321/358/324is15nA with5V
supply.Thus a100k?input resistor will cause1.5mV of error
voltage.By balancing the resistor values at both inverting
and non-inverting inputs,the error caused by the amplifier’s
input bias current will be reduced.The circuit in Figure6
shows how to cancel the error caused by input bias current.
4.0TYPICAL SINGLE-SUPPLY APPLICATION CIRCUITS
4.1Difference Amplifier
The difference amplifier allows the subtraction of two volt-
ages or,as a special case,the cancellation of a signal
common to two inputs.It is useful as a computational ampli-
fier,in making a differential to single-ended conversion or in
rejecting a common mode signal.
4.2Instrumentation Circuits
The input impedance of the previous difference amplifier is
set by the resistors R1,R2,R3,and R4.To eliminate the
problems of low input impedance,one way is to use a
voltage follower ahead of each input as shown in the follow-
ing two instrumentation amplifiers.

Application Notes(Continued)
4.2.1Three-Op-Amp Instrumentation Amplifier
The quad LMV324can be used to build a three-op-amp
instrumentation amplifier as shown in Figure8.
The first stage of this instrumentation amplifier is a
differential-input,differential-output amplifier,with two volt-
age followers.These two voltage followers assure that the
input impedance is over100M?.The gain of this instrumen-
tation amplifier is set by the ratio of R2/R1.R3should equal
R1,and R4equal R2.Matching of R3to R1and R4to R2
affects the CMRR.For good CMRR over temperature,low
drift resistors should be used.Making R4slightly smaller
than R2and adding a trim pot equal to twice the difference
between R2and R4will allow the CMRR to be adjusted for
optimum.
4.2.2Two-op-amp Instrumentation Amplifier
A two-op-amp instrumentation amplifier can also be used to
make a high-input-impedance dc differential amplifier(Fig-
ure9).As in the three-op-amp circuit,this instrumentation
amplifier requires precise resistor matching for good CMRR.
R4should equal to R1and R3should equal R2.
4.3Single-Supply Inverting Amplifier
There may be cases where the input signal going into the
amplifier is negative.Because the amplifier is operating in
single supply voltage,a voltage divider using R3and R4is
implemented to bias the amplifier so the input signal is within
the input common-mode voltage range of the amplifier.The
capacitor C1is placed between the inverting input and resis-
tor R1to block the DC signal going into the AC signal source,
V IN.The values of R1and C1affect the cutoff frequency,fc=
1/2πR1C1.
As a result,the output signal is centered around mid-supply
(if the voltage divider provides V+/2at the non-inverting
input).The output can swing to both rails,maximizing the
signal-to-noise ratio in a low voltage system.
4.4ACTIVE FILTER
4.4.1Simple Low-Pass Active Filter
The simple low-pass filter is shown in Figure11.Its low-
frequency gain(ω→0)is defined by-R3/R1.This allows
low-frequency gains other than unity to be obtained.The
filter has a-20dB/decade roll-off after its corner frequency fc.
R2should be chosen equal to the parallel combination of R1
and R3to minimize errors due to bias current.The frequency
response of the filter is shown in Figure12.

Application Notes(Continued)
Note that the single-op-amp active filters are used in to the
applications that require low quality factor,Q(≤10),low
frequency(≤5kHz),and low gain(≤10),or a small value for
the product of gain times Q(≤100).The op amp should have
an open loop voltage gain at the highest frequency of inter-
est at least50times larger than the gain of the filter at this
frequency.In addition,the selected op amp should have a
slew rate that meets the following requirement:
Slew Rate≥0.5x(ωH V OPP)x10?6V/μsec
whereωH is the highest frequency of interest,and V opp is the
output peak-to-peak voltage.
4.4.2Sallen-Key2nd-Order Active Low-Pass Filter
The Sallen-Key2nd-order active low-pass filter is illustrated
in Figure13.The dc gain of the filter is expressed as
(1)
Its transfer function is
(2)
The following paragraphs explain how to select values for
R1,R2,R3,R4,C1,and C2for given filter requirements,such
as A LP,Q,and f c.
The standard form for a2nd-order low pass filter is
(3)
where
Q:Pole Quality Factor
ωC:Corner Frequency
Comparison between the Equation(2)and Equation(3)
yields
(4)
(5)
To reduce the required calculations in filter design,it is
convenient to introduce normalization into the components
and design parameters.To normalize,letωC=ωn=1rad/s,
and C1=C2=C n=1F,and substitute these values into
Equation(4)and Equation(5).From Equation(4),we obtain

From Equation(5),we obtain

Application Notes(Continued)
For minimum dc offset,V+=V?,the resistor values at both
inverting and non-inverting inputs should be equal,which
means
(8)
From Equation(1)and Equation(8),we obtain
(9)
(10)
The values of C1and C2are normally close to or equal to
As a design example:
Require:A LP=2,Q=1,fc=1KHz
Start by selecting C1and C2.Choose a standard value that
is close to
From Equations(6),(7),(9),(10),
R1=1?
R2=1?
R3=4?
R4=4?
The above resistor values are normalized values withωn=
1rad/s and C1=C2=C n=1F.To scale the normalized cut-off
frequency and resistances to the real values,two scaling
factors are introduced,frequency scaling factor(k f)and im-
pedance scaling factor(k m).
Scaled values:
R2=R1=15.9k?
R3=R4=63.6k?
C1=C2=0.01μF
An adjustment to the scaling may be made in order to have
realistic values for resistors and capacitors.The actual value
used for each component is shown in the circuit.
4.4.32nd-order High Pass Filter
A2nd-order high pass filter can be built by simply inter-
changing those frequency selective components(R1,R2,
C1,C2)in the Sallen-Key2nd-order active low pass filter.As
shown in Figure14,resistors become capacitors,and ca-
pacitors become resistors.The resulted high pass filter has
the same corner frequency and the same maximum gain as
the previous2nd-order low pass filter if the same compo-
nents are chosen.
4.4.4State Variable Filter
A state variable filter requires three op amps.One conve-
nient way to build state variable filters is with a quad op amp,
such as the LMV324(Figure15).
This circuit can simultaneously represent a low-pass filter,
high-pass filter,and bandpass filter at three different outputs.
The equations for these functions are listed below.It is also
called"Bi-Quad"active filter as it can produce a transfer
function which is quadratic in both numerator and
denominator.

A design example for a bandpass filter is shown below:
Assume the system design requires a bandpass filter with f O
=1kHz and Q=50.What needs to be calculated are
capacitor and resistor values.
First choose convenient values for C1,R1and R2:
C1=1200pF
2R2=R1=30k?
Then from Equation(11),
From Equation(12),
From the above calculated values,the midband gain is H0=
R3/R2=100(40dB).The nearest5%standard values have
been added to Figure15.

Application Notes
(Continued)
When the output voltage V O is first at its high,V OH ,the capacitor C is charged toward V OH through R 2.The voltage across C rises exponentially with a time constant τ=R 2C,and this voltage is applied to the inverting input of the op amp.Meanwhile,the voltage at the non-inverting input is set at the positive threshold voltage (V TH+)of the generator.The capacitor voltage continually increases until it reaches V TH+,at which point the output of the generator will switch to its low,V OL (=0V in this case).The voltage at the non-inverting input is switched to the negative threshold voltage (V TH-)of the generator.The capacitor then starts to discharge toward V OL exponentially through R 1,with a time constant τ=R 1C.When the capacitor voltage reaches V TH-,the output of the pulse generator switches to V OH .The capacitor starts to charge,and the cycle repeats itself.
As shown in the waveforms in Figure 17,the pulse width (T 1)is set by R 2,C and V OH ,and the time between pulses (T 2)is set by R 1,C and V OL .This pulse generator can be made to have different frequencies and pulse width by selecting dif-ferent capacitor value and resistor values.
Figure 18shows another pulse generator,with separate charge and discharge paths.The capacitor is charged through R 1and is discharged through R 2.
Figure 19is a squarewave generator with the same path for charging and discharging the capacitor.

4.6CURRENT SOURCE AND SINK
The LMV321/358/324can be used in feedback loops which
regulate the current in external PNP transistors to provide
current sources or in external NPN transistors to provide
current sinks.
4.6.1Fixed Current Source
A multiple fixed current source is show in Figure20.A
voltage(V REF=2V)is established across resistor R3by the
voltage divider(R3and R4).Negative feedback is used to
cause the voltage drop across R1to be equal to V REF.This
controls the emitter current of transistor Q1and if we neglect
the base current of Q1and Q2,essentially this same current
is available out of the collector of Q1.
Large input resistors can be used to reduce current loss and
a Darlington connection can be used to reduce errors due to
theβof Q1.
The resistor,R2,can be used to scale the collector current of
Q2either above or below the1mA reference value.
4.6.2High Compliance Current Sink
A current sink circuit is shown in Figure21.The circuit
requires only one resistor(R E)and supplies an output cur-
rent which is directly proportional to this resistor value.
4.7POWER AMPLIFIER
A power amplifier is illustrated in Figure22.This circuit can
provide a higher output current because a transistor follower
is added to the output of the op amp.
4.8LED DRIVER
The LMV321/358/324can be used to drive an LED as shown
in Figure23.
