Product details
Overview
TLC271CPW from Texas Instruments is a programmable low-power LinCMOS™ operational amplifier in an 8-pin TSSOP package, featuring bias-select mode (high/medium/low), 10 mV max input offset voltage at 25°C, 3.6 V/µs slew rate in high-bias mode, and rail-to-rail output swing down to the negative rail - used in precision sensor signal conditioning for industrial temperature monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the TLC271CPW datasheet, TLC271CPW pinout, TLC271CPW application, or TLC271CPW equivalent, key selection criteria include its programmable bias architecture enabling trade-offs between power (50–3375 µW), bandwidth (0.09–1.7 MHz), noise (25–68 nV/√Hz), and input offset stability (0.1 µV/month drift), especially for battery-powered analog front-ends requiring single-supply operation from 3 V to 16 V.
Technical Context
The TLC271CPW implements a silicon-gate LinCMOS™ process delivering ultra-high input impedance (10¹² Ω typ) and sub-picoampere input bias current (0.6 pA typ), with internal ESD protection rated to 2000 V per MIL-STD-883C Method 3015.2. Its bias-select pin enables dynamic configuration of three distinct operating modes via external voltage level.
In high-bias mode, it achieves 1.7 MHz unity-gain bandwidth and 3.6 V/µs slew rate; in low-bias mode, it draws only 50 µW while maintaining 480 V/mV large-signal gain and 0.09 MHz bandwidth - all without sacrificing input offset voltage drift (<0.1 µV/month) or common-mode range extending below the negative rail.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 16 V - supports single-supply operation in portable and remote sensing applications. |
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 10 mV at 25°C - defines worst-case DC error in precision amplification stages. |
| Slew Rate (high-bias) | 3.6 V/µs - enables accurate reproduction of signals up to ~570 kHz at 1 Vpp. |
| Input Bias Current (typ) | 0.6 pA - minimizes loading error on high-impedance sources like thermistors or pH electrodes. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Extends 0.2 V below negative rail - allows direct interfacing with ground-referenced sensors. |
| Output Voltage Swing | Includes negative rail - simplifies level-shifting and eliminates need for dual supplies. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC272CPW | Dual-channel version in same PW package; identical bias-select architecture and specs per channel. | Reduces board space in multi-sensor systems but increases quiescent current by ~2× when both channels active. | Select when two matched amplifiers are required in same footprint; verify thermal derating for dual-channel dissipation. |
| TLV2461CPW | Single-supply rail-to-rail I/O op amp; no bias-select feature; 600 µA IQ vs. TLC271CPW's 50–1600 µA range. | Lacks programmable power/performance trade-off; optimized for fixed low-power, not ultra-low-drift applications. | Choose when consistent 600 µA operation suffices and offset drift <0.1 µV/month is not required. |
Compared with TLC272CPW and TLV2461CPW, the TLC271CPW uniquely provides selectable bias modes enabling design flexibility across power-constrained, noise-sensitive, and precision-stability requirements - making it irreplaceable where dynamic adaptation of ac performance versus quiescent power is essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the TLC271CPW?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for the TLC271CPW is 18 V, though the recommended operating range is 3 V to 16 V across its specified temperature range (0°C to 70°C for the 'C' suffix). Exceeding 16 V may compromise long-term reliability and is not guaranteed to meet electrical specifications per the SLOS090D datasheet.
How does the BIAS SELECT pin function on the TLC271CPW?
The BIAS SELECT pin on the TLC271CPW sets operating mode: grounded for low-bias (50 µW), connected to VDD/2 for medium-bias (525 µW), or tied to VDD for high-bias (3375 µW). This directly controls slew rate (0.03–3.6 V/µs), noise (68–25 nV/√Hz), and bandwidth (0.09–1.7 MHz), allowing dynamic adaptation of the TLC271CPW to system-level power and performance needs.
Can the TLC271CPW operate from a single 3.3-V supply?
Yes, the TLC271CPW is fully specified for 3-V operation and functions reliably from a 3.3-V single supply. Its common-mode input range extends to –0.2 V (below GND) and output swings to within 50 mV of GND, enabling full utilization of the 0–3.3 V range for interfacing with modern low-voltage microcontrollers and ADCs in the TLC271CPW design.
What is the purpose of the OFFSET N1 and OFFSET N2 pins on the TLC271CPW?
The OFFSET N1 and OFFSET N2 pins on the TLC271CPW provide access to the internal offset nulling circuitry, allowing external trimming of input offset voltage using a 10-kΩ potentiometer. This capability is critical for achieving sub-millivolt DC accuracy in precision instrumentation applications where the inherent 10 mV max VIO of the TLC271CPW must be actively reduced.
Is the TLC271CPW suitable for automotive applications?
No, the TLC271CPW is characterized for 0°C to 70°C operation (C-suffix) and is not qualified for automotive AEC-Q100 stress testing. For automotive use, TI offers the TLC271IP (I-suffix, –40°C to 85°C) or TLC271MP (M-suffix, –55°C to 125°C), which share the same core architecture but undergo extended temperature validation - the TLC271CPW itself is intended for commercial/industrial equipment only.
