Part Number: LMV324A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM2902, LM2902KAV

Dear Specialists,

My customer is considering LMV324A instead of LM2902 and has a question.

I would be grateful if you could advise.

---

According to the application note(SLOA277), the LM2902KAV has a sink current circuit at the output,

What about LMV324A?

Is there a limitation of current sink like a LM2902.

I appreciate your great help in advance.

Best regards,

Hello Shinichi-san

LMV324A has a completely different output stage. Therefore the answer is no; not like LM2902.

Hi Ron,

Thank you for your reply.

I understand LMV324A has a different output stage.

There is no need to consider the sink current at low voltage like the LM2902.

I'll share this information with the customer.

I appreciate your great help and cooperation.

Best regards,

Shinichi
