Super-small 1.8V rail-to-rail input/output
operational amplifier
The LMV931 is a low-voltage, low-power operational amplifier.
It is guaranteed to operate from a 1.8V supply voltage and have
rail-to-rail input and output. The input common-mode voltage of
the LMV931 extends 200 mV beyond the supplies, which enables
user-enhanced functionality beyond the supply voltage range. The
output can swing rail-to-rail unloaded and within 80 mV from the
rail with 600Ω load. The LMV931 is optimized to work at 1.8V,
which makes it ideal for portable two-cell, battery-powered systems

voltages as low as 1.5V and as high as 5.5V. Operating over a
wide temperature range of -50°C to +150°C, the LM94021/22
deliver an output voltage that is inversely proportional to measured
temperature. The low supply current of the LM94021/22 make
them ideal for battery-powered systems as well as general
temperature-sensing applications.
The LM94022 can be connected directly to any ADC without a
need for any external components.

12-bit Micropower digital-to-analog converter
with rail-to-rail output
The DAC121S101 is a full-featured, general-purpose 12-bit voltage-
output DAC that can operate from a single 2.7V to 5.5V supply
and consumes just 177 µA of current at 3.6V. The on-chip output
amplifier allows rail-to-rail output swing. The 3-wire serial interface
operates at clock rates up to 30 MHz over the specified supply
voltage range and is compatible with standard SPI, QSPI,
MICROWIRE, and DSP interfaces.
The supply voltage for the DAC121S101 serves as its voltage
reference, providing the widest possible output dynamic range. A
power-on reset circuit ensures that the DAC output powers up to 1 MSPS, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter in a

standards, such as SPI, QSPI, MICROWIRE, and many common
DSP serial interfaces.
The ADC121S101 uses the supply voltage as a reference. This
enables the device to operate with a full-scale input range of 0 to
VDD. The conversion rate is determined from the serial clock (SCLK)
speed. The device offers a shutdown mode, which can be used to
trade throughput for power consumption. The ADC121S101 is
operated with a single supply that can range from 2.7V to 5.25V.
