LM324N Datasheet Deep Dive: Pinout, Specs & Limits
The LM324N is a low-power, single-supply quad operational amplifier with practical operation from roughly 3 V to 32 V, large open-loop DC gain on the order of 100 dB, a unity-gain bandwidth near 1 MHz, and an output short-circuit capability around 40 mA. This article translates the LM324N datasheet into direct design guidance: clear pinout mapping, key electrical characteristics, and bench checks for rapid verification. Parameter Typical Value Conditions Supply Voltage (Vcc) 3V to 32V Single Supply Unity-Gain Bandwidth 1.0 MHz Vcc = 30V DC Voltage Gain 100 dB RL ≥ 2kΩ Input Offset Voltage 2.0 …
