Product details
Overview
TL074ACNSR from Texas Instruments is a quad JFET-input operational amplifier optimized for low-noise, high-slew-rate signal conditioning in precision analog circuits. It delivers 20 V/μs slew rate, 37 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz, ±2.25 V to ±20 V dual-supply operation, and rail-to-rail common-mode input range extending to VCC+. It is widely used in pro audio mixers and battery test equipment where low distortion (0.003% THD+N) and stable DC performance are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TL074ACNSR datasheet, TL074ACNSR pinout, TL074ACNSR application, or TL074ACNSR equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, package-validated pin functions, real-world use cases, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application-level differences - all specific to the TL074ACNSR (SOIC-14, commercial temperature grade).
Technical Context
The TL074ACNSR implements a high-impedance JFET differential input stage followed by a Class AB output stage, enabling low input bias current (±1 pA typ) and wide common-mode range including VCC+. Its internal compensation ensures unity-gain stability with capacitive loads up to 300 pF while maintaining 56° phase margin.
It operates across 4.5 V to 40 V total supply (±2.25 V to ±20 V), supports rail-sensing inputs, and features integrated EMI filtering and 2 kV HBM ESD protection. The device belongs to the TL07x "C" series - distinct from TL07xH - with offset voltage of 3–10 mV (typ 6 mV), drift of ±18 µV/°C, and 5.25 MHz gain-bandwidth product.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channels | Quad - enables four independent amplification stages in one SOIC-14 package, reducing board space vs discrete op-amps. |
| Slew Rate | 20 V/μs - supports fast transient response in active filters and audio line drivers without slew-induced distortion. |
| Input Voltage Noise | 37 nV/√Hz @ 1 kHz - low enough for microphone preamp and sensor signal conditioning without dominating system noise floor. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±2.25 V to ±20 V - compatible with legacy ±15 V systems and modern low-voltage industrial rails. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 3–10 mV (typ 6 mV) - suitable for DC-coupled applications requiring moderate precision, not ultra-low-drift instrumentation. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Includes VCC+ - allows direct sensing of signals referenced to positive rail, e.g., high-side current monitoring. |
| THD+N | 0.003% @ 1 kHz - meets pro-audio line-level signal integrity requirements with minimal harmonic artifacts. |
Pinout & Package
TL074ACNSR is supplied in a 14-pin SOIC (NS) package with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint (5.3 mm width, 1.27 mm pitch). Pin functions are validated per TI SLOS080W Rev. July 2025, Table 4-6.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1OUT | Output of first amplifier - directly drives downstream stages; capable of ±12 V swing into 10 kΩ load. |
| 2 | 1IN− | Inverting input of first amplifier - high-impedance (1 TΩ), sensitive to PCB leakage; requires guarded trace routing. |
| 3 | 1IN+ | Noninverting input of first amplifier - same impedance as IN−; used for unity-gain buffers and noninverting configurations. |
| 4 | VCC+ | Positive power supply - must be decoupled with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor near pin to suppress high-frequency noise. |
| 5 | 2IN+ | Noninverting input of second amplifier - electrically isolated from other channels; no crosstalk above 1 µV/V at DC. |
| 6 | 2IN− | Inverting input of second amplifier - matched to pin 2; supports differential pair configurations with external resistors. |
| 7 | 2OUT | Output of second amplifier - identical AC/DC specs to pin 1; shares thermal path but no electrical coupling. |
| 8 | VCC− | Negative power supply - reference for all four amplifiers; return path for quiescent current (940 µA/ch typical). |
| 9 | 3OUT | Output of third amplifier - fully independent channel; usable for multi-stage filtering or signal distribution. |
| 10 | 3IN+ | Noninverting input of third amplifier - pin-compatible with standard TL074 layouts; no NC pins in NS package. |
| 11 | VCC− | Shared negative rail - same node as pin 8; not duplicated; single connection suffices for all four amps. |
| 12 | 3IN− | Inverting input of third amplifier - matches pin 6; supports inverting summing junctions with low input bias error. |
| 13 | 4IN− | Inverting input of fourth amplifier - completes full quad set; enables simultaneous processing of four analog signals. |
| 14 | 4OUT | Output of fourth amplifier - final channel output; rated for short-circuit protection per TI specification. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low input bias current | ±1 pA typical - minimizes voltage error in high-impedance sensor interfaces (e.g., piezoelectric transducers). |
| Wide supply range | ±2.25 V to ±20 V - eliminates need for level-shifting in mixed-voltage systems such as industrial PLC I/O modules. |
| Output short-circuit protection | ±26 mA continuous - prevents latch-up or destruction during accidental output shorts in test equipment front-ends. |
| Low total harmonic distortion | 0.003% @ 1 kHz - preserves waveform fidelity in audio line drivers and analog synthesizer signal paths. |
| EMI rejection ratio | 53 dB @ 1 GHz - suppresses RF interference from switching power supplies and wireless modules in embedded designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad JFET-input op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL074CDR | Same SOIC-14 package, identical electrical specs (C-grade), but D suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging - no functional difference. | No application difference; both qualified for commercial-temp (0°C to 70°C) use in audio and test gear. | Select TL074CDR for automated SMT assembly; TL074ACNSR is tube-packaged and suited for prototyping or low-volume calibration fixtures. |
| OPA2134UA | Lower noise (8 nV/√Hz), lower distortion (0.00008% THD+N), but higher quiescent current (4 mA/ch) and narrower supply range (±4.5 V to ±18 V). | Preferred in high-fidelity audio DAC output stages; less suitable for battery-powered test equipment due to 4× higher supply current. | Choose OPA2134UA only when noise/dynamic performance outweighs power and supply constraints - not a drop-in replacement. |
Compared with TL074CDR, TL074ACNSR offers identical performance in tube packaging for manual assembly; versus OPA2134UA, it trades 4.6× lower supply current and wider voltage range for higher noise and distortion - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, power-constrained industrial signal chains rather than premium audio.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the TL074ACNSR?
The TL074ACNSR is specified for commercial temperature operation from 0°C to +70°C. This range is confirmed in Section 5.3 of the TI SLOS080W datasheet under "Recommended Operating Conditions" for TL07xC-grade devices. It is not rated for extended industrial (–40°C to +85°C) or automotive temperatures - for those, TL074I or TL074M variants must be selected instead of TL074ACNSR.
Does the TL074ACNSR support single-supply operation?
Yes, the TL074ACNSR supports single-supply operation from 4.5 V to 40 V total supply voltage. Its common-mode input range extends to VCC+, allowing input signals referenced to ground or mid-rail. However, output swing is not rail-to-rail - it typically delivers ±12 V into 10 kΩ with ±15 V supplies, so proper biasing (e.g., VREF = VCC/2) is required for true AC-coupled single-supply use in TL074ACNSR designs.
What is the input offset voltage specification for TL074ACNSR?
The TL074ACNSR has an input offset voltage of 3 mV (minimum), 6 mV (typical), and 10 mV (maximum) at TA = 25°C and VS = ±15 V, per Section 5.8 of the TI SLOS080W datasheet. This value increases to ±13 mV over the full 0°C to +70°C range. It is not the low-drift TL074H variant (±1 mV typ); TL074ACNSR is optimized for cost and general-purpose use, not ultra-precision DC applications.
Can TL074ACNSR drive capacitive loads reliably?
Yes, the TL074ACNSR is characterized to drive up to 300 pF capacitive loads while maintaining stability, as stated in its "Capacitive load drive" specification (Section 5.7). This capability is enabled by internal compensation and 56° phase margin at unity gain. For loads exceeding 300 pF, external isolation resistance (e.g., 10–100 Ω in series with the output) is recommended to prevent peaking or oscillation in TL074ACNSR-based filter or cable-driving applications.
Is TL074ACNSR pin-compatible with other TL074 variants in SOIC-14?
Yes, TL074ACNSR is fully pin-compatible with all TL074x variants offered in the NS (SOIC-14) package - including TL074CDR, TL074CN, and TL074CNSR - because they share identical pinout, footprint, and electrical interface per TI's standardized TL074x pin function table (Table 4-6, SLOS080W). Differences lie only in grading (C vs H vs I), packaging (tube vs tape), and minor parametric shifts - not pin assignment.
