LM224QT

STMicroelectronics · Operational Amplifier · TQFN-16-EP(3x3)

LM224QT from STMicroelectronics, in a TQFN-16-EP(3x3). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 IN1+ input Non-inverting input of op-amp 1. Common-mode input voltage range extends from ground (VCC-) up to VCC+ − 1.5 V at 25 °C.
2 VCC+ power_in Positive supply rail. Single supply: 3 V to 30 V referenced to VCC-; dual supply: +1.5 V to +15 V referenced to ground. Absolute maximum supply is ±16 V or 32 V total.
3 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to a static net.
4 IN2+ input Non-inverting input of op-amp 2. Input bias current typ. 20 nA, input offset current typ. 2 nA.
5 IN2- input Inverting input of op-amp 2. Input offset voltage 5 mV max (LM224).
6 OUT2 output Output of op-amp 2. Internally frequency-compensated; output short-circuit current typ. 40 mA; output short-circuit to ground is safe indefinitely for VCC ≤ 15 V.
7 OUT3 output Output of op-amp 3. Internally frequency-compensated; large voltage gain typ. 100 dB.
8 IN3- input Inverting input of op-amp 3.
9 IN3+ input Non-inverting input of op-amp 3. Common-mode input voltage range 0 V to VCC-1.5 V @ 25 °C.
10 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to a static net.
11 VCC- power_in Negative supply / ground. In single-supply operation this pin is tied to system ground; in split-supply operation it is the negative rail (down to -15 V). Absolute maximum ±16 V.
12 IN4+ input Non-inverting input of op-amp 4.
13 IN4- input Inverting input of op-amp 4.
14 OUT4 output Output of op-amp 4. Internally frequency-compensated; output short-circuit protected.
15 OUT1 output Output of op-amp 1. Internally frequency-compensated.
16 IN1- input Inverting input of op-amp 1.
17 EP passive Exposed thermal pad on package underside. Per Figure 1 note 1, may be connected to VCC- or left floating. Connecting to VCC- improves thermal performance (QFN16 3x3 Rth(j-a) = 45 °C/W).

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
lm224qt.step 190 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
lm224qt-etched.step 1.3 MB You want the part with LM224QT already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 341 faces against 110 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: STMicroelectronics datasheet (22 pp, sha256 c1aa97669d6ca9c8, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
