Product details
Overview
TLC081IDR from Texas Instruments is a single-channel BiMOS operational amplifier optimized for wide-bandwidth, high-output-drive, single-supply applications. It delivers 10 MHz gain-bandwidth, ±57 mA output drive, 16 V/µs positive slew rate, and operates from 4.5 V to 16 V across –40°C to 125°C - enabling robust signal conditioning in automotive sensor interfaces and industrial analog front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the TLC081IDR datasheet, TLC081IDR pinout, TLC081IDR application, or TLC081IDR equivalent, key selection considerations include its rail-to-rail input capability (VICR = GND to VDD–2 V), ultralow 125 µA shutdown current per channel, and MSOP-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The TLC081IDR integrates a low-noise CMOS front end with a high-drive bipolar output stage in TI's LBC3 BiCMOS process, enabling simultaneous high impedance (>1 TΩ differential input resistance), low input noise (8.5 nV/√Hz), and strong output sourcing/sinking (57 mA/55 mA). Its architecture supports stable unity-gain operation with phase margin ≥32° into 50 pF loads.
Unlike legacy TL08x predecessors, the TLC081IDR ensures ground-inclusive common-mode input range and features dedicated shutdown control (SHDN pin) with logic-level thresholds (VIH = 2 V, VIL = 0.8 V), enabling precise power sequencing in battery-powered systems without external enable circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain-bandwidth product | 10 MHz - enables stable closed-loop operation up to 10× gain at 1 MHz or unity gain at 10 MHz. |
| Output drive (sourcing) | 57 mA at VDD–1.5 V - drives heavy loads like 600 Ω audio lines or capacitive DAC buffers directly. |
| Slew rate (+) | 16 V/µs - supports fast settling of 10-V step signals within 0.625 µs (0.1% error). |
| Supply voltage range | 4.5 V to 16 V - compatible with 5 V, 12 V, and dual-rail-derived single supplies. |
| Input offset voltage | 60 µV typical - reduces DC error in precision transducer amplification and low-level signal chains. |
| Shutdown current | 125 µA per channel - cuts quiescent power by >93% versus active mode (1.9 mA), critical for duty-cycled sensors. |
Pinout & Package
The TLC081IDR is housed in an 8-pin MSOP (DGN) package with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™), measuring 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 1.0 mm and rated for 4.7 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (NULL) | No internal connection | Unused pin; must be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical stability. |
| 2 (IN–) | Inverting input | Differential input node; accepts signals down to GND in single-supply configurations. |
| 3 (IN+) | Non-inverting input | High-impedance CMOS input (1 TΩ); supports direct connection to high-Z sources like piezoelectric sensors. |
| 4 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Primary return path for input bias currents and output load current; requires low-impedance PCB plane. |
| 5 (SHDN) | Shutdown control input | Active-low logic interface; pulls supply current to 125 µA when ≤0.8 V, full operation when ≥2 V. |
| 6 (VDD) | Positive supply rail | Accepts 4.5–16 V; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 5 mm of pin for stability. |
| 7 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Class-AB bipolar output stage; capable of sourcing 57 mA or sinking 55 mA into resistive or moderate capacitive loads. |
| 8 (NULL) | No internal connection | Unused pin; same handling as Pin 1. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide bandwidth + high drive | 10 MHz GBW with ±57 mA output enables driving 600 Ω lines at audio frequencies without external buffers. |
| Ground-sensing input range | VICR includes GND (0 V) to VDD–2 V - eliminates need for level-shifting in single-supply sensor interfaces. |
| Ultralow shutdown current | 125 µA per channel allows >100× reduction in idle power versus active mode, extending battery life in portable instruments. |
| Low input voltage noise | 8.5 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - preserves SNR in low-level signal amplification (e.g., thermocouple, strain gauge front-ends). |
| MSOP PowerPAD™ package | 3 mm × 3 mm footprint with thermal pad improves power dissipation and EMI immunity over SOIC-8 alternatives. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2333AIDR | Zero-drift architecture; 0.02 µV/°C offset drift vs. TLC081IDR's 1.2 µV/°C; lower 5.5 µVpp noise but only 16 mA output drive. | Better for ultra-stable DC-coupled measurement (e.g., weigh scales); insufficient drive for 600 Ω audio or capacitive loads. | Select OPA2333AIDR when long-term DC accuracy dominates over AC drive strength. |
| LM7321MAX/NOPB | Higher 22 MHz GBW and 100 mA output, but wider 2.7–36 V supply range and no integrated shutdown pin. | Preferred for wide-input-voltage industrial controls; requires external enable logic for power gating. | Select LM7321MAX/NOPB when maximum speed and drive are needed and board space permits discrete shutdown circuitry. |
Compared with OPA2333AIDR and LM7321MAX/NOPB, the TLC081IDR uniquely balances 10 MHz bandwidth, ±57 mA drive, integrated shutdown, and ground-sensing inputs in a 3 mm × 3 mm MSOP - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-aware, single-supply systems demanding both precision and power efficiency.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the TLC081IDR?
The TLC081IDR is specified for operation from –40°C to +125°C, qualifying it for under-hood automotive, industrial control, and harsh-environment applications. This extended temperature grade (I-suffix) is confirmed in the device's ordering table and absolute maximum ratings section of the SLOS254F datasheet.
Does the TLC081IDR support rail-to-rail input or output?
The TLC081IDR supports rail-to-rail input (common-mode range includes GND to VDD–2 V) but not rail-to-rail output - its output swings within ~1.5 V of VDD and ~0.5 V of GND under full load. This is documented in the VOH/VOL specifications at IOH = –50 mA and IOL = 50 mA in the Electrical Characteristics tables.
How does the SHDN pin function on the TLC081IDR?
The SHDN pin on the TLC081IDR is an active-low logic input: asserting ≤0.8 V places the amplifier in ultralow-power shutdown (125 µA/channel), while ≥2 V enables normal operation. The transition times (t(on) = 0.47 µs, t(off) = 2.5 µs at VDD = 12 V) are characterized in the Operating Characteristics table.
Can the TLC081IDR drive capacitive loads without instability?
Yes - the TLC081IDR maintains ≥32° phase margin into 50 pF loads (per Figure 19), and its datasheet confirms stable unity-gain operation with CL ≤ 50 pF. For larger capacitive loads, a series isolation resistor (e.g., 10–50 Ω) between OUT and the load is recommended to preserve stability.
What package type is used for the TLC081IDR?
The TLC081IDR uses the 8-pin MSOP (DGN) package with PowerPAD™ thermal enhancement, as confirmed in the "TLC080 and TLC081 AVAILABLE OPTIONS" table and the "TYPICAL PIN 1 INDICATORS" diagram. This package measures 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm and requires soldering of the exposed thermal pad to a PCB copper pour for optimal thermal performance.
