Product details
Overview
TL072BCPG4 from Texas Instruments is a dual JFET-input operational amplifier optimized for low-noise audio and precision analog signal conditioning. It delivers 20 V/μs slew rate, 37 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz, ±2.25 V to ±20 V supply operation, and 1 mV typical input offset voltage. It is widely deployed in pro-audio mixers and battery test equipment where high CMRR and rail-to-rail common-mode input range (including VCC+) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TL072BCPG4 datasheet, TL072BCPG4 pinout, TL072BCPG4 application, or TL072BCPG4 equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (PDIP-8), confirmed dual-channel FET-input architecture, real-world noise and distortion specs, and validated alternatives for audio-grade op-amp replacement scenarios.
Technical Context
The TL072BCPG4 uses a JFET differential input stage enabling ultra-low input bias current (±1 pA typ) and high input impedance (>1 TΩ). Its internal compensation ensures stable unity-gain operation with ≤20 pF capacitive load, and the common-mode input range extends to the positive supply rail-enabling single-supply sensor interface configurations when biased appropriately.
It features integrated EMI/RF filters and 2-kV HBM ESD protection, supporting robust operation in electrically noisy environments such as motor drive feedback loops and UPS control circuits. The device operates across 0°C to 70°C (commercial grade), matching the 'C' suffix specification.

Pinout & Package
TL072BCPG4 is supplied in an 8-pin PDIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package) with 0.3-inch body width and standard through-hole mounting. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot on the package top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Output of Amplifier A | Provides buffered, low-impedance output signal; requires no external pull-up/down for standard op-amp configurations |
| 2 | Inverting Input of Amplifier A | Accepts feedback network connection; high-impedance node sensitive to PCB leakage and stray capacitance |
| 3 | Noninverting Input of Amplifier A | High-Z input for reference or sensor signal; benefits from guard traces in low-level applications |
| 4 | Negative Supply (VCC–) | Must be decoupled locally with ≥0.1 μF ceramic capacitor to ground to suppress supply noise coupling |
| 5 | Noninverting Input of Amplifier B | Independent input for second channel; shares same noise and bias characteristics as Pin 3 |
| 6 | Inverting Input of Amplifier B | Used for feedback in second amplifier; layout symmetry recommended when both channels are active |
| 7 | Output of Amplifier B | Electrically identical to Pin 1; supports independent loading up to 2 kΩ minimum |
| 8 | Positive Supply (VCC+) | Primary power entry point; requires local 0.1 μF ceramic + 10 μF bulk capacitance for stability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual JFET-input op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL072CP | Same die, identical electrical specs, but in PDIP-8 with standard TI packaging (no G4 suffix); RoHS-compliant lead finish differs | No functional difference; suitable for legacy designs requiring TI's standard commercial-grade PDIP marking and traceability | Select TL072CP if sourcing consistency with historical BOMs or distributor stock preference is prioritized over G4-specific plating |
| RC4558CP | Bipolar input (not JFET); higher input bias current (±300 nA), lower slew rate (1.7 V/μs), higher noise (12 nV/√Hz), but wider temp range (–40°C to +85°C) | Not suitable for high-Z sensor interfaces or low-noise audio; acceptable for general-purpose DC amplification and comparator hysteresis | Choose RC4558CP only for cost-sensitive, non-critical analog functions where JFET advantages are unnecessary |
Compared with TL072CP, TL072BCPG4 offers identical performance but with enhanced Pb-free matte tin lead finish per JEDEC J-STD-609; versus RC4558CP, it delivers 30× lower input bias current and 12× higher slew rate-critical for precision and wideband applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for TL072BCPG4?
The TL072BCPG4 is rated for commercial temperature operation from 0°C to +70°C, as indicated by its 'C' suffix. This range is validated per TI's SLOS080W datasheet Section 5.3, and applies to all electrical specifications unless otherwise noted. Operation beyond this range may result in parametric shift or reliability degradation, and is not guaranteed.
Does TL072BCPG4 support single-supply operation?
Yes, TL072BCPG4 supports single-supply operation with appropriate input biasing. Its common-mode input range extends to VCC+, allowing the noninverting input to be tied directly to the positive rail or a mid-rail reference. Output swing remains within ~200 mV of each rail under 10-kΩ load, making it viable for 5 V to 40 V single-rail systems when configured with proper DC offsets.
How does the noise performance of TL072BCPG4 compare to bipolar-input op-amps like LM358?
TL072BCPG4 exhibits significantly lower voltage noise (37 nV/√Hz vs. LM358's 40 nV/√Hz) and vastly lower current noise (80 fA/√Hz vs. LM358's ~0.5 pA/√Hz), due to its JFET input stage. This makes TL072BCPG4 superior for high-source-impedance applications (e.g., piezo sensors, photodiodes), whereas LM358 is better suited for low-impedance, low-speed DC applications where input bias current is less critical.
Can TL072BCPG4 drive capacitive loads without oscillation?
TL072BCPG4 is internally compensated for unity-gain stability with ≤20 pF capacitive load, per datasheet Figure 5-23 and 5-24. Driving >20 pF directly risks peaking or oscillation; for larger loads (e.g., cables, ADC inputs), a series resistor (20–100 Ω) should isolate the op-amp output. Layout best practices-including short traces and local decoupling-further improve stability in real-world PCB implementations.
Is TL072BCPG4 pin-compatible with other TL072 variants like TL072CDR?
Yes, TL072BCPG4 is pin-compatible with all TL072x variants in the same PDIP-8 package, including TL072CDR (SOIC-8) and TL072CP (PDIP-8). However, package-dependent parameters-such as thermal resistance (RθJA = 85°C/W for PDIP vs. 147.8°C/W for SOIC) and parasitic capacitance-must be accounted for in thermal and high-frequency designs, even when pinouts match.
