Product details
Overview
TLC25L2CDR from Texas Instruments is a low-power, dual-channel LinCMOS™ operational amplifier optimized for single-supply battery-powered systems. It features 10 mV max input offset voltage (VIO), 20–34 µA supply current at 5 V, rail-to-rail common-mode input range down to the negative rail, and unity-gain stability - enabling precision signal conditioning in portable medical sensors, low-voltage data acquisition, and energy-harvesting interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TLC25L2CDR datasheet, TLC25L2CDR pinout, TLC25L2CDR application, or TLC25L2CDR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options - all grounded in TI's SLOS002I datasheet (Rev. March 2001) and D-package characterization.
Technical Context
The TLC25L2CDR implements a silicon-gate LinCMOS™ process that delivers ultra-low input bias current (≤60 pA typ) and high input impedance (>1012 Ω), making it suitable for high-impedance sensor front-ends where leakage-induced errors must be minimized. Its input stage operates with true single-supply capability, supporting common-mode voltages from ground to VDD − 0.2 V across 1.4–16 V supply range.
This device is internally compensated for unity-gain stability and exhibits low-noise performance (68 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz) under high-impedance loading (RL = 1 MΩ). Its phase margin remains ≥30° over temperature (0°C to 70°C), ensuring robust closed-loop behavior in precision DC-coupled amplifiers and active filters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.4 V to 16 V - enables direct operation from single alkaline, lithium coin cell, or solar cell sources without regulation. |
| Input Offset Voltage (VIO) | 10 mV max at 25°C - defines worst-case DC error in precision gain stages; A/B variants offer tighter grades (5 mV / 2 mV). |
| Supply Current (IDD) | 20–34 µA per dual amplifier at 5 V - supports multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring nodes. |
| Input Bias Current | ≤60 pA typ - preserves signal integrity when interfacing with high-Z sources like pH electrodes or piezoelectric transducers. |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth (B1) | 85–100 MHz at 5 V (RL = 1 MΩ) - sufficient for anti-aliasing filtering and low-frequency instrumentation amplifier buffering. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Includes negative rail (GND) - allows direct sensing of signals referenced to ground in single-supply topologies. |
| Output Voltage Swing | Within 50 mV of rails (VOL ≤ 50 mV, VOH ≥ VDD − 50 mV at RL = 1 MΩ) - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage ADC driver applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (D package), tape-and-reel (suffix R), body dimensions 3.91 mm × 4.9 mm × 1.75 mm, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OUT A | Inverting amplifier output; drives loads up to 1 MΩ with <50 mV headroom to rails. |
| 2 | IN− A | Inverting input; high-impedance node sensitive to PCB leakage and guarding requirements. |
| 3 | IN+ A | Non-inverting input; accepts common-mode signals from GND to VDD − 0.2 V. |
| 4 | GND / VDD− | Power reference return; must be low-impedance and decoupled locally to minimize noise coupling. |
| 5 | VDD | Positive supply input; supports 1.4–16 V; requires 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor near pin. |
| 6 | OUT B | Second amplifier output; electrically isolated but thermally coupled to OUT A. |
| 7 | IN− B | Inverting input for second channel; identical electrical characteristics to IN− A. |
| 8 | IN+ B | Non-inverting input for second channel; enables dual-sensor or differential pair configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| True single-supply operation | Common-mode input includes GND - eliminates need for level-shifting circuitry in 0–VDD sensor interfaces. |
| Ultra-low power consumption | 20–34 µA total supply current at 5 V - extends battery life in wearable and remote IoT endpoints. |
| High input impedance | >1012 Ω typical - prevents loading of high-Z sources such as electret microphones or capacitive touch sensors. |
| Rail-to-rail input capability | Operates with inputs at GND - critical for accurate zero-reference measurements in single-supply data loggers. |
| Internal ESD protection | Rated to 2000 V HBM - reduces risk of field failure during board assembly and handling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-power op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2462IDR | Lower VIO (2 mV max), higher supply current (550 µA), rail-to-rail output only (not input) | Requires external level shift for GND-referenced inputs; better for higher-speed, higher-accuracy systems with ample power budget | Select when precision offset and bandwidth outweigh ultra-low power needs; not drop-in due to input range mismatch |
| LPV521MG/NOPB | Lower supply current (320 nA), lower bandwidth (155 kHz), same rail-to-rail input | Optimized for nanowatt sensing; insufficient for >100 kHz signal chains or driving 1 MΩ loads | Choose for multi-year battery life in ultra-low-duty-cycle applications; incompatible for unity-gain stable >1 MHz designs |
Compared with TLV2462IDR and LPV521MG/NOPB, the TLC25L2CDR uniquely balances sub-35 µA quiescent current, rail-to-rail input, 100 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, and 1.4 V operation - making it the only option among the three viable for single-supply, high-Z, wide-bandwidth sensor buffering below 2 V.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the TLC25L2CDR?
The TLC25L2CDR has an absolute maximum supply voltage (VDD) rating of 18 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the SLOS002I datasheet. However, its recommended operating range is 1.4 V to 16 V. Exceeding 16 V may compromise long-term reliability or parametric performance, even if no immediate failure occurs.
Does the TLC25L2CDR support true rail-to-rail input operation?
Yes, the TLC25L2CDR supports true rail-to-rail input operation - its common-mode input voltage range includes the negative rail (GND) across all supply voltages (e.g., –0.2 V to 4 V at VDD = 5 V). This enables direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors without external level-shifting circuitry.
What is the typical input bias current of the TLC25L2CDR at 25°C?
The typical input bias current (IIB) of the TLC25L2CDR is ≤60 pA at 25°C, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics tables for VDD = 5 V and VDD = 10 V (pages 9–10, SLOS002I). This ultra-low value is enabled by TI's LinCMOS™ process and is critical for preserving accuracy in high-impedance sensor applications.
Can the TLC25L2CDR drive a 1 MΩ load effectively?
Yes, the TLC25L2CDR is characterized for operation into 1 MΩ loads, as shown in the TLC25L2C/L2AC/L2BC parameter tables (pages 9–10). At 5 V supply, it delivers full output swing (within 50 mV of rails) and maintains 50–700 V/mV large-signal gain under this condition - confirming suitability for high-impedance buffering and filtering stages.
Is the TLC25L2CDR unity-gain stable?
Yes, the TLC25L2CDR is internally compensated for unity-gain stability, as explicitly stated in the device description and verified by phase margin measurements ≥30° across temperature (0°C to 70°C) and supply voltages (pages 11, 14). No external compensation is required for stable operation at AV = 1.
