Product details
Overview
TL084BCD from Texas Instruments is a quad JFET-input operational amplifier designed for precision analog signal conditioning in industrial and audio systems. It delivers 20 V/μs slew rate, ±1 mV input offset voltage (typ), 5.25 MHz gain-bandwidth product, low 37 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz, and operates from ±2.25 V to ±20 V supplies. It serves as the core amplification stage in pro audio mixers and battery test equipment.
For engineers reviewing the TL084BCD datasheet, TL084BCD pinout, TL084BCD application, or TL084BCD equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, SOIC-14 package details, functional pin mapping, real-world use cases in high-EMI motor drives and solar inverters, and two validated alternative parts with documented electrical and thermal differences.
Technical Context
The TL084BCD uses a JFET-input differential pair architecture enabling ultra-low input bias current (±1 pA typ) and wide common-mode range extending to VCC+. Its internal compensation ensures stable unity-gain operation with up to 300 pF capacitive load drive and 56° phase margin.
It features integrated EMI/RF filters and 1.5 kV HBM ESD protection, supporting reliable operation across –40°C to 125°C ambient. The device maintains 118 dB open-loop gain and 100 dB CMRR over temperature while delivering rail-to-rail output swing headroom of 115 mV (positive) and 105 mV (negative) at 40 V supply with 10 kΩ load.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TL084CDR | Same SOIC-14 package, but rated for 0°C to 70°C only; higher max offset voltage (10 mV vs 4 mV max); 1.4 mA quiescent current per amp | Not qualified for automotive or extended industrial temperature ranges; unsuitable for battery test equipment operating at –20°C | Select TL084BCD when full –40°C to 125°C operation, lower offset, or lower power is required |
| OPA4134UA | Higher precision: 0.5 mV max offset, 120 dB CMRR, 8 MHz GBW; SOIC-14; 4 mA IQ per amp; no integrated EMI filters | Better for audio ADC front-ends needing >110 dB SNR; lacks EMI hardening for noisy motor drive environments | Choose OPA4134UA for premium audio signal chains; TL084BCD preferred for cost-sensitive, EMI-heavy industrial controls |
Compared with TL084CDR, TL084BCD offers 2.5× tighter offset spec and 35% lower quiescent current across temperature; versus OPA4134UA, it trades 30% higher noise and 50% lower GBW for integrated EMI suppression and 60% lower cost in volume production.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for TL084BCD?
The TL084BCD is specified for operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. This extended range is validated per TI's recommended operating conditions and supports deployment in harsh environments such as solar inverter enclosures and industrial motor drive cabinets where internal temperatures exceed 85°C.
Does TL084BCD support single-supply operation?
Yes, TL084BCD supports true single-supply operation due to its common-mode input voltage range extending to VCC+. When powered from +5 V to +40 V with VCC– grounded, it accepts inputs from 1.5 V above ground up to the positive rail, enabling direct interfacing with unipolar sensors and microcontroller ADC references without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical input bias current of TL084BCD?
The typical input bias current of TL084BCD is ±1 pA at 25°C, with a maximum of ±120 pA over the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range. This ultra-low value stems from its JFET-input architecture and makes it ideal for high-impedance pH electrode buffers, piezoelectric sensor amplifiers, and leakage-current measurement circuits.
Can TL084BCD drive capacitive loads directly?
Yes, TL084BCD is characterized to safely drive up to 300 pF capacitive loads while maintaining 56° phase margin and stable step response. This capability eliminates the need for external isolation resistors in applications like DAC output buffering and piezo actuator drivers, provided layout practices minimize parasitic capacitance beyond the specified limit.
How does TL084BCD differ from TL084H in terms of performance?
TL084BCD and TL084H share identical electrical specifications including 20 V/μs slew rate, 5.25 MHz GBW, and ±1 mV offset voltage (typ), but TL084BCD is the commercial-grade variant (0°C to 70°C), whereas TL084H is the high-reliability version rated for –40°C to +125°C with enhanced ESD (1.5 kV HBM) and integrated EMI filters - both are available in SOIC-14, but only TL084H appears in the "TL08xH" family documentation cited in the datasheet.
