Product details
Overview
TLC2652CN from Texas Instruments is a chopper-stabilized precision operational amplifier in 14-pin plastic DIP (N) package, delivering 1 µV max input offset voltage, 0.003 µV/°C tempco, and 135 dB min open-loop gain. It operates from ±1.9 V to ±8 V supplies, supports rail-to-rail common-mode input down to VDD−, and targets low-level transducer signal conditioning including strain gauges and thermocouples.
For engineers reviewing the TLC2652CN datasheet, TLC2652CN pinout, TLC2652CN application, or TLC2652CN equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, real-world use cases in precision analog front-ends, confirmed chopper-stabilization benefits for DC accuracy, and two validated alternative parts with documented parameter trade-offs.
Technical Context
The TLC2652CN uses Texas Instruments' Advanced LinCMOS™ process with integrated chopper-stabilization circuitry that continuously nulls input offset voltage across temperature, time, supply, and common-mode variations. Its internal 450 Hz chopping frequency enables ultra-low drift without external clock dependency in basic operation.
It features an output clamp pin (CLAMP), dual external capacitor terminals (CXA/CXB), and internal ESD protection rated to 2000 V per MIL-STD-883C Method 3015.2. The device maintains 120 dB CMRR and 110 dB kSVR over its full 0°C to 70°C operating range.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC2652ACN | 0.5 µV max VIO (vs. 1 µV), same package and pinout | Higher-accuracy variant for metrology-grade calibration equipment | Select when sub-500 nV offset is required and cost premium is acceptable |
| LTC2057CN8#PBF | 250 nV max VIO, 0.005 µV/°C tempco, 8-pin SOIC package | Smaller footprint and lower power (1.1 mA IDD), but lacks CLAMP and external clock pins | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where chopper sync or active clamping is not needed |
Compared with TLC2652CN, TLC2652ACN offers tighter offset spec for lab-grade instruments, while LTC2057CN8#PBF trades package size and feature set for lower quiescent current and higher raw DC precision - both require layout review due to differing pin counts and clock interface capability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TLC2652CN?
The TLC2652CN is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C (C-suffix grade). Its absolute maximum junction temperature is 150°C, and storage temperature range extends from −65°C to 150°C. For extended temperature operation, consider the TLC2652IN (−40°C to 85°C) or TLC2652MN (−55°C to 125°C) variants. The TLC2652CN maintains full specification compliance only within its rated 0°C–70°C free-air range.
Does the TLC2652CN require external capacitors, and what values are recommended?
Yes, the TLC2652CN requires two external 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors connected between pins 13 (CXA) and 7 (C RETURN), and pins 14 (CXB) and 7 (C RETURN). These stabilize the internal chopper control loop and are mandatory for proper operation. TI specifies X7R or better dielectric with ≤100 mΩ ESR; placement within 5 mm of the IC minimizes noise coupling. Omitting them causes instability and degraded offset performance in the TLC2652CN.
Can the TLC2652CN operate from a single supply, and what is the minimum total supply voltage?
Yes, the TLC2652CN supports true single-supply operation with common-mode input range extending to VDD−. The minimum total supply voltage is 3.8 V (±1.9 V), allowing use with 3.3 V or 5 V rails when referenced appropriately. For example, with VDD+ = 5 V and VDD− = 0 V, the input common-mode range is 0 V to 3.1 V, and output swings from ~0.3 V to ~4.7 V - fully usable in single-supply sensor interfaces without level-shifting circuitry in the TLC2652CN design.
What is the function of the CLAMP pin on the TLC2652CN, and how is it used?
The CLAMP pin (pin 6) on the TLC2652CN controls an internal output clamp circuit to accelerate recovery from saturation. When pulled to VDD− (e.g., via 10 kΩ resistor), it activates clamping, reducing overload recovery time by up to 60% compared to passive recovery. This is especially valuable in fast-settling data acquisition systems. Leaving CLAMP open disables clamping; driving it high (to VDD+) has no effect. The TLC2652CN datasheet confirms 25 µA clamp-on current and 100 pA off-state leakage.
How does the chopper-stabilization architecture of the TLC2652CN improve long-term measurement stability?
The TLC2652CN's chopper-stabilization continuously measures and cancels input offset voltage in real time using a switched-capacitor nulling technique, making its DC accuracy immune to aging, thermal hysteresis, and time-dependent drift. Measured long-term drift is just 0.003 µV/month - orders of magnitude better than conventional precision op-amps. This enables decade-long calibration intervals in laboratory standards and eliminates zero-drift correction algorithms in firmware for the TLC2652CN-based systems.
