Product details
Overview
TL084IN from Texas Instruments is a quad JFET-input operational amplifier designed for precision analog signal conditioning in industrial and instrumentation systems. It delivers 20 V/μs slew rate, ±1 mV typical input offset voltage, 5.25 MHz gain-bandwidth product, and operates from ±2.25 V to ±20 V supplies. Its rail-to-rail common-mode input range (including VCC+) enables high-side sensing in battery test equipment and motor drive feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the TL084IN datasheet, TL084IN pinout, TL084IN application, or TL084IN equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, package-confirmed pin functions, real-world use cases in solar inverters and pro audio mixers, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and thermal differences.
Technical Context
The TL084IN uses a high-impedance JFET differential input stage enabling ultra-low input bias current (±1 pA typ) and low noise (37 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz), making it suitable for high-source-impedance sensor interfaces. Its internal compensation ensures stability with capacitive loads up to 300 pF without external compensation.
It features output short-circuit protection, EMI/RF filtering, and operates across –40°C to +85°C (Industrial grade). The device supports wide supply ranges (±2.25 V to ±20 V) and maintains 100 dB CMRR over temperature, critical for DC-coupled measurement circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channels | Quad - enables four independent signal paths on one die, reducing board space and inter-channel mismatch in multi-stage filters or sensor arrays. |
| Slew Rate | 20 V/μs - supports fast transient response in active filters and servo loop compensation without distortion. |
| Input Offset Voltage | ±1 mV (typ) - ensures <0.01% DC error in 100 mV full-scale measurements, critical for precision instrumentation amplifiers. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 5.25 MHz - allows stable unity-gain operation up to ~5 MHz or closed-loop gain of 100 at 52.5 kHz. |
| Supply Voltage Range | ±2.25 V to ±20 V - accommodates dual-supply systems from low-power portable devices to industrial 24 V rails. |
| Input Bias Current | ±1 pA (typ) - minimizes voltage drop across high-impedance sources (e.g., pH electrodes, photodiode transimpedance amps). |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Includes VCC+ - permits direct sensing of signals referenced to positive rail, such as high-side current shunt monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
TL084IN is supplied in a 14-pin PDIP (N package), through-hole compatible with standard DIP sockets and wave-soldering processes. Thermal resistance RθJA = 80°C/W enables reliable operation at ambient temperatures up to +85°C with minimal heatsinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1OUT | Output of first op-amp - drives downstream stages or feedback networks; capable of ±26 mA short-circuit current. |
| 2 | 1IN– | Inverting input of first op-amp - accepts feedback signals or inverted inputs; high-impedance JFET node (ZICM = 6 TΩ). |
| 3 | 1IN+ | Non-inverting input of first op-amp - connects to reference or sensor; supports common-mode voltages up to VCC+. |
| 4 | VCC+ | Positive power supply - must be decoupled locally with ≥0.1 μF ceramic capacitor to suppress supply noise. |
| 5 | 2IN+ | Non-inverting input of second op-amp - electrically isolated from other channels; used for independent signal paths. |
| 6 | 2IN– | Inverting input of second op-amp - shares no internal coupling with other inputs; enables true quad-channel isolation. |
| 7 | 2OUT | Output of second op-amp - independently buffered; supports separate load conditions without crosstalk. |
| 8 | VCC– | Negative power supply - reference for all four amplifiers; requires symmetric or asymmetric dual-rail configuration. |
| 9 | 3IN– | Inverting input of third op-amp - identical electrical characteristics to pins 2 and 6; validated for ≤125°C junction operation. |
| 10 | 3IN+ | Non-inverting input of third op-amp - supports same common-mode range and bias current specs as pin 3. |
| 11 | 3OUT | Output of third op-amp - rated for same output swing (115–210 mV headroom) and capacitive load drive (300 pF). |
| 12 | 4IN+ | Non-inverting input of fourth op-amp - fully characterized per TI SLOS081O Rev. September 2025, including ESD robustness (1.5 kV HBM). |
| 13 | 4IN– | Inverting input of fourth op-amp - matches input capacitance (2 pF differential) and noise performance of other inputs. |
| 14 | 4OUT | Output of fourth op-amp - delivers same THD+N (0.00012% typ) and settling time (0.48 μs to 0.01%) as channel 1. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| EMI/RF Filtering | Integrated on-die filters suppress 1 GHz interference, improving immunity in noisy industrial environments (e.g., VFD cabinets). |
| Rail-Inclusive Common-Mode Range | Accepts inputs up to VCC+ - simplifies high-side current sensing without level-shifting circuitry in battery management systems. |
| Output Short-Circuit Protection | Withstands continuous short to ground on any single output - enhances reliability in field-deployed test equipment. |

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 | SOIC-14 package (surface-mount); 114.2°C/W RθJA vs 80°C/W for PDIP; identical electrical specs per TI SLOS081O. | Preferred for automated PCB assembly; requires reflow profile optimization due to higher thermal resistance. | Select TL084CDR for volume production with pick-and-place lines; TL084IN remains optimal for prototyping, repair, and through-hole legacy systems. |
| TL074CN | Lower input voltage noise (18 nV/√Hz vs 37 nV/√Hz); same pinout and supply range; reduced ESD rating (1 kV HBM vs 1.5 kV). | Better suited for ultra-low-noise audio preamps; less robust in ESD-prone industrial settings. | Choose TL074CN only when noise dominates design priority and ESD environment is controlled; TL084IN offers superior ruggedness for field equipment. |
Compared with TL084CDR and TL074CN, TL084IN provides the lowest thermal resistance among quad JFET op-amps in through-hole packages, highest HBM ESD rating, and guaranteed rail-inclusive input range - making it the most robust choice for industrial test and power electronics where reliability trumps ultra-low-noise optimization.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for TL084IN?
The TL084IN is rated for industrial temperature range: –40°C to +85°C ambient. Its PDIP package achieves 80°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, allowing safe operation at full rated load within this range when properly decoupled and mounted on standard FR-4 PCBs with adequate copper area.
Does TL084IN support single-supply operation?
Yes, TL084IN supports single-supply operation from 4.5 V to 40 V. Its common-mode input range extends to VCC+, enabling high-side sensing without level shifters. However, output swing is limited to ~115 mV above VCC– and ~210 mV below VCC+, so mid-rail biasing is required for AC-coupled signals.
What is the input offset voltage drift specification for TL084IN?
TL084IN has a maximum input offset voltage drift of ±2 µV/°C over the full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). This low drift ensures minimal calibration drift in precision measurement systems such as battery impedance analyzers and strain gauge amplifiers.
Can TL084IN drive capacitive loads directly?
Yes, TL084IN is specified to drive up to 300 pF capacitive loads without external compensation. Its internal compensation and 56° phase margin at 10 kΩ load + 20 pF ensure stability in applications like active filters and DAC output buffers where capacitive loading is unavoidable.
Is TL084IN pin-compatible with other TL084 variants?
Yes, TL084IN shares identical pinout and electrical behavior with all TL084x variants (e.g., TL084CDR, TL084CN) in the 14-pin PDIP package. Differences exist only in temperature grade, packaging, and minor parametric limits - not pin function or footprint.
