LM324

Texas Instruments · Quad op-amp · SOIC-14

Four general-purpose operational amplifiers in one SOIC-14, the quad version of the LM358. Each runs from a single supply of 3 to 32 V (or a split supply) with an input range that includes the negative rail (ground), so it works in single-supply designs without a negative voltage. It is low power and inexpensive, which makes it the default op-amp for filters, buffers, summing amplifiers, and simple signal conditioning where precision is not critical. All four amplifiers share the V+ and GND pins.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1OUT output Output of op amp 1. Class-AB output stage capable of sourcing/sinking current; short-circuit protected to either supply rail.
2 1IN- input Inverting (negative) input of op amp 1. High-impedance input with typical input bias current of tens of nA; common-mode range includes V-.
3 1IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of op amp 1. High-impedance input; common-mode range includes V- (ground) for single-supply operation.
4 VCC+ power_in Positive (highest) supply. Operating range 3V to 32V (LM324) or up to 36V (LM324B); absolute maximum 32V (LM324/A) or 40V (LM324B).
5 2IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of op amp 2. High-impedance input; common-mode range includes V-.
6 2IN- input Inverting (negative) input of op amp 2. High-impedance input; typical input bias current of tens of nA.
7 2OUT output Output of op amp 2. Class-AB output stage capable of sourcing/sinking current; short-circuit protected.
8 3OUT output Output of op amp 3. Class-AB output stage capable of sourcing/sinking current; short-circuit protected.
9 3IN- input Inverting (negative) input of op amp 3. High-impedance input; typical input bias current of tens of nA.
10 3IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of op amp 3. High-impedance input; common-mode range includes V-.
11 VCC- power_in Negative (lowest) supply, or GND for single-supply operation. Common-mode input range includes this rail, enabling single-supply designs.
12 4IN+ input Non-inverting (positive) input of op amp 4. High-impedance input; common-mode range includes V-.
13 4IN- input Inverting (negative) input of op amp 4. High-impedance input; typical input bias current of tens of nA.
14 4OUT output Output of op amp 4. Class-AB output stage capable of sourcing/sinking current; short-circuit protected.
