Product details
Overview
TLC2654CN from Texas Instruments is a chopper-stabilized operational amplifier optimized for ultra-low-noise, high-precision DC signal conditioning. It delivers 0.5 µV peak-to-peak input noise (0–1 Hz), 10 kHz chopping frequency, and 10 µV max input offset voltage (TLC2654A grade), enabling accurate amplification of thermocouple and strain gauge outputs in single-supply industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TLC2654CN datasheet, TLC2654CN pinout, TLC2654CN application, or TLC2654CN equivalent, key selection criteria include sub-microvolt offset stability (0.05 µV/°C), rail-to-rail common-mode input range (includes VDD–), and absence of clock noise below 10 kHz - critical for low-frequency precision measurement systems.
Technical Context
The TLC2654CN implements a high-frequency (10 kHz typ) chopper-stabilization architecture that continuously nulls input offset voltage against temperature drift, time aging, and supply variation. Its Advanced LinCMOS process enables CMOS-level input impedance (>1012 Ω) while maintaining robust ESD protection (2000 V HBM).
Unlike low-frequency choppers, its 10 kHz chopping eliminates intermodulation error up to 5 kHz and avoids aliasing in subsonic bandwidth applications. The device requires two external capacitors (CXA/CXB) for internal chopping control, with optional external clock access via CLK IN/CLK OUT pins in 14-pin and 20-pin packages - though the 8-pin D and plastic DIP (N) packages used for TLC2654CN omit those pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 10 µV max (TLC2654A grade at 25°C); ensures minimal baseline error in precision DC gain stages. |
| Offset Tempco | 0.05 µV/°C max; guarantees stable calibration over industrial temperature range (0°C to 70°C). |
| Input Noise (0–1 Hz) | 0.5 µVPP typ; enables resolution of microvolt-level thermocouple signals without 1/f noise corruption. |
| Chopping Frequency | 10 kHz typ; places clock energy beyond audio band, eliminating audible artifacts and intermodulation distortion below 5 kHz. |
| CMRR / PSRR | 110 dB min each; rejects power supply ripple and common-mode interference in noisy industrial environments. |
| Supply Range | ±2.3 V to ±8 V; supports operation from low-voltage single-supply (e.g., +5 V with VDD– = GND) to dual-rail systems. |
| Gain-Bandwidth | 1.9 MHz typ; sufficient for closed-loop gains up to ~100× while preserving phase margin (48°) with 100 pF load. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Plastic Dual-In-Line (PDIP-8), also designated N package per TI documentation. Body dimensions: 9.27 mm × 6.35 mm × 3.3 mm. RoHS-compliant lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (CXA) | Chopper capacitor A terminal | Connects to external timing capacitor; sets chopping frequency and stabilizes nulling loop. |
| 2 (IN–) | Inverting input | Differential input node; high-impedance CMOS input (IIB ≤ 60 pA) minimizes bias current errors. |
| 3 (IN+) | Non-inverting input | Differential input node; common-mode range extends to VDD–, enabling true single-supply sensor interfacing. |
| 4 (VDD–) | Negative supply rail | Reference for internal chopping circuitry; allows rail-to-rail input operation when tied to system ground. |
| 5 (CXB) | Chopper capacitor B terminal | Completes chopper capacitor pair; must match CXA capacitor value for optimal offset cancellation. |
| 6 (VDD+) | Positive supply rail | Power supply input; supports ±2.3 V to ±8 V operation; internal regulation ensures stable core bias. |
| 7 (OUT) | Amplifier output | Class AB output stage; drives ≥10 kΩ loads with ±4.7 V swing (±5 V supplies); includes clamp pin for fast overload recovery. |
| 8 (CLAMP) | Output clamp control | Sinks 25 µA when active; reduces recovery time after saturation by limiting internal node excursion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Noise performance | 0.5 µVPP (0–1 Hz) and 13 nV/√Hz (1 kHz) enable high-resolution DC measurements without external filtering. |
| DC precision | 10 µV max VIO and 0.05 µV/°C tempco ensure stable calibration across temperature in weigh-scale and medical instrumentation. |
| Rail-to-rail input | Common-mode range includes VDD–, allowing direct connection of grounded-sensor bridges and thermocouples in single-supply systems. |
| Robust fault tolerance | Withstands –100 mA surge currents and incorporates 2000 V HBM ESD protection - suitable for factory-floor sensor nodes. |
| Chopper transparency | On-chip chopping control requires no external clock; user-configurable clock interface available only on larger packages (not TLC2654CN). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar chopper-stabilized op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA2189IDR | Zero-drift architecture with 5.2 nV/√Hz noise (1 kHz), lower quiescent current (0.42 mA), but no CLAMP pin or chopper-capacitor interface. | Better suited for battery-powered precision ADC drivers; lacks fast overload recovery and external capacitor tuning. | Select OPA2189IDR when low power and modern zero-drift simplicity outweigh need for chopper-frequency optimization and clamp-assisted recovery. |
| LTC2057HMS8#PBF | Higher offset spec (5 µV max), wider supply range (±1.65 V to ±5.5 V), integrated EMI filtering, but no CLAMP pin and higher 1/f noise corner (~0.1 Hz). | Preferred for space-constrained, EMI-heavy environments (e.g., automotive body control); less ideal for ultra-low-noise sub-Hz applications. | Choose LTC2057HMS8#PBF when EMI immunity and compact MSOP-8 packaging are prioritized over absolute lowest 0–1 Hz noise and active clamp functionality. |
Compared with OPA2189IDR and LTC2057HMS8#PBF, the TLC2654CN uniquely combines sub-µVPP 0–1 Hz noise, user-accessible chopper capacitor terminals for frequency tuning, and a dedicated CLAMP pin - making it irreplaceable for legacy or cost-sensitive industrial systems demanding proven, field-hardened chopper performance.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TLC2654CN?
The TLC2654CN is rated for operation from 0°C to 70°C (C-suffix). This commercial-grade temperature range is validated per TI's SLOS020G datasheet and applies to all electrical specifications unless otherwise noted. The device uses plastic DIP (N) packaging, which is not qualified for extended industrial or automotive ranges - those require I-, Q-, or M-suffix variants like TLC2654IN or TLC2654AMN.
Does the TLC2654CN require external clocking components?
No, the TLC2654CN does not require external clocking components. Its internal chopper-control circuitry operates autonomously using the CXA and CXB pins connected to external capacitors only - no external clock source, crystal, or oscillator is needed. Unlike 14-pin or 20-pin variants (e.g., TLC2654AC-14D), the 8-pin PDIP (N) package of TLC2654CN omits CLK IN and CLK OUT pins, making it a fully self-contained chopper solution.
How does the CLAMP pin on the TLC2654CN improve system performance?
The CLAMP pin on the TLC2654CN sinks 25 µA when activated, limiting internal node voltage excursion during output saturation. This reduces overload recovery time significantly - critical in applications like ECG front-ends or overload-prone sensor interfaces. In practice, this feature enables faster return to linear operation after large transient inputs, preserving signal integrity without requiring external clamping diodes or complex compensation networks.
Can the TLC2654CN operate from a single +5-V supply?
Yes, the TLC2654CN supports true single-supply operation. With VDD+ = +5 V and VDD– = 0 V (GND), its common-mode input voltage range extends from 0 V to +2.7 V, and output swings from ~0.3 V to ~4.7 V under 10-kΩ load. This rail-to-rail input capability - combined with chopper stabilization - makes it ideal for interfacing grounded sensors (e.g., thermocouples referenced to system ground) without level-shifting circuitry.
What are the recommended external capacitor values for CXA and CXB on the TLC2654CN?
Texas Instruments specifies 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors for both CXA and CXB pins in standard configurations, as confirmed in the SLOS020G datasheet Figure 1 and application guidance. These values set the nominal 10 kHz chopping frequency and ensure stable nulling loop behavior. Capacitor tolerance should be ±10% or better; X7R dielectric is preferred for temperature stability. Deviations alter chopping frequency and may degrade DC precision or increase residual ripple.
