The LM324 series are low−cost, quad operational amplifiers with
true differential inputs. They have several distinct advantages over
standard operational amplifier types in single supply applications. The
quad amplifier can operate at supply voltages as low as 3.0 V or as PDIP−14
N SUFFIX
high as 32 V with quiescent currents about one−fifth of those
CASE 646
associated with the MC1741 (on a per amplifier basis). The common
14
mode input range includes the negative supply, thereby eliminating the

necessity for external biasing components in many applications. The
output voltage range also includes the negative power supply voltage. SOIC−14

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The LM324 series is made using four internally VCC = 15 Vdc

compensated, two−stage operational amplifiers. The first RL = 2.0 k
stage of each consists of differential input devices Q20 and TA = 25°C
Q18 with input buffer transistors Q21 and Q17 and the

1.0 V/DIV
differential to single ended converter Q3 and Q4. The first
stage performs not only the first stage gain function but also
performs the level shifting and transconductance reduction
functions. By reducing the transconductance, a smaller
compensation capacitor (only 5.0 pF) can be employed, thus
saving chip area. The transconductance reduction is
accomplished by splitting the collectors of Q20 and Q18. 5.0 s/DIV
Another feature of this input stage is that the input common

7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview
The LM74 devices are general-purpose operational amplifiers which feature improved performance over industry
standards like the LM709. It is intended for a wide range of analog applications. The high gain and wide range of
operating voltage provide superior performance in integrator, summing amplifier, and general feedback
applications. The LM741 can operate with a single or dual power supply voltage. The LM741 devices are direct,
plug-in replacements for the 709C, LM201, MC1439, and 748 in most applications.

7.2 Functional Block Diagram

7.3 Feature Description

7.3.1 Overload Protection
The LM741 features overload protection circuitry on the input and output. This prevents possible circuit damage
to the device.

7.3.2 Latch-up Prevention

The LM741 is designed so that there is no latch-up occurrence when the common-mode range is exceeded. This
allows the device to function properly without having to power cycle the device.

7.3.3 Pin-to-Pin Capability

The LM741 is pin-to-pin direct replacements for the LM709C, LM201, MC1439, and LM748 in most applications.
Direct replacement capabilities allows flexibility in design for replacing obsolete parts.

7.4 Device Functional Modes

7.4.1 Open-Loop Amplifier
The LM741 can be operated in an open-loop configuration. The magnitude of the open-loop gain is typically large
thus for a small difference between the noninverting and inverting input terminals, the amplifier output will be
driven near the supply voltage. Without negative feedback, the LM741 can act as a comparator. If the inverting
input is held at 0 V, and the input voltage applied to the noninverting input is positive, the output will be positive.
If the input voltage applied to the noninverting input is negative, the output will be negative.

7.4.2 Closed-Loop Amplifier

In a closed-loop configuration, negative feedback is used by applying a portion of the output voltage to the
inverting input. Unlike the open-loop configuration, closed loop feedback reduces the gain of the circuit. The
overall gain and response of the circuit is determined by the feedback network rather than the operational
amplifier characteristics. The response of the operational amplifier circuit is characterized by the transfer function.

8 Application and Implementation

NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

8.1 Application Information

The LM741 is a general-purpose amplifier than can be used in a variety of applications and configurations. One
common configuration is in a noninverting amplifier configuration. In this configuration, the output signal is in
phase with the input (not inverted as in the inverting amplifier configuration), the input impedance of the amplifier
is high, and the output impedance is low. The characteristics of the input and output impedance is beneficial for
applications that require isolation between the input and output. No significant loading will occur from the
previous stage before the amplifier. The gain of the system is set accordingly so the output signal is a factor
larger than the input signal.

8.2.1 Design Requirements

As shown in Figure 1, the signal is applied to the noninverting input of the LM741. The gain of the system is
determined by the feedback resistor and input resistor connected to the inverting input. The gain can be
calculated by Equation 1:
Gain = 1 + (R2/R1) (1)

The gain is set to 2 for this application. R1 and R2 are 4.7-k resistors with 5% tolerance.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

The LM741 can be operated in either single supply or dual supply. This application is configured for dual supply
with the supply rails at ±15 V. The input signal is connected to a function generator. A 1-Vpp, 10-kHz sine wave
was used as the signal input. 5% tolerance resistors were used, but if the application requires an accurate gain
response, use 1% tolerance resistors.

8.2.3 Application Curve
The waveforms in Figure 2 show the input and output signals of the LM741 non-inverting amplifier circuit. The
blue waveform (top) shows the input signal, while the red waveform (bottom) shows the output signal. The input
signal is 1.06 Vpp and the output signal is 1.94 Vpp. With the 4.7-kΩ resistors, the theoretical gain of the system
is 2. Due to the 5% tolerance, the gain of the system including the tolerance is 1.992. The gain of the system
when measured from the mean amplitude values on the oscilloscope was 1.83.

9 Power Supply Recommendations

For proper operation, the power supplies must be properly decoupled. For decoupling the supply lines, a 0.1-µF
capacitor is recommended and should be placed as close as possible to the LM741 power supply pins.

10 Layout

10.1 Layout Guidelines

As with most amplifiers, take care with lead dress, component placement, and supply decoupling in order to
ensure stability. For example, resistors from the output to an input should be placed with the body close to the
input to minimize pick-up and maximize the frequency of the feedback pole by minimizing the capacitance from
the input to ground. As shown in Figure 3, the feedback resistors and the decoupling capacitors are located close
to the device to ensure maximum stability and noise performance of the system.
