Product details
Overview
TLC274AIN from Texas Instruments is a precision quad operational amplifier optimized for single-supply operation, featuring 10 mV max input offset voltage (C-suffix), 10.8 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz, and rail-to-rail output swing down to ground. It operates from 3 V to 16 V over 0°C to 70°C and delivers high input impedance (>10¹² Ω) for low-bias-current sensor signal conditioning in industrial instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the TLC274AIN datasheet, TLC274AIN pinout, TLC274AIN application, or TLC274AIN equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, validated 14-pin PDIP package mapping, confirmed single-supply interface behavior, and two technically documented alternative parts for design continuity and sourcing flexibility.
Technical Context
The TLC274AIN uses a polysilicon-gate CMOS process to achieve low input bias current (≤60 pA typ), minimal offset voltage drift (0.3 µV/°C), and latch-up immunity - enabling stable DC-coupled amplification without external protection circuitry. Its input common-mode range extends below ground (–0.1 V min), and output swings to within 50 mV of GND under load.
Designed for precision analog front-ends, it supports unity-gain bandwidth of 4.5 MHz and slew rate of 0.5 V/µs at 5 V supply, with CMRR ≥65 dB and PSRR ≥65 dB across its operating temperature range - making it suitable for multi-channel signal conditioning where channel-to-channel matching and supply rejection are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | 10 mV max at 25°C - sets DC accuracy limit in precision gain stages and sensor bridges |
| Input Voltage Noise | 10.8 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - enables low-noise amplification of microvolt-level signals above 50 kΩ source impedance |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 16 V - supports direct interfacing with 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V logic/system rails without level-shifting |
| Common-Mode Input Range | –0.1 V to 3.5 V at 5 V supply - allows ground-referenced inputs in single-supply configurations |
| Output Voltage Swing | 0 V to 4.95 V (min) at 5 V supply - delivers full dynamic range into 10 kΩ loads without negative rail |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 4.5 MHz - supports stable closed-loop operation up to ~100 kHz with moderate gain and capacitive loads |
| Input Bias Current | ≤60 pA typical - permits use of high-value feedback networks (e.g., >1 MΩ) without significant error |
Pinout & Package
Package: N (PDIP-14), 19.3 mm × 9.4 mm body size with 0.3 inch lead spacing - compatible with standard through-hole PCB assembly and socketing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 1IN– | Input | Inverting input for channel 1 - accepts feedback network connection for stable closed-loop gain |
| 1IN+ | Input | Noninverting input for channel 1 - connects to reference or sensor signal with high-impedance loading |
| VDD | Power Supply | Positive supply rail (3–16 V) - powers all four amplifiers; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic bypass |
| GND | Power Supply | Negative supply or system ground - serves as return path for all channels and reference point for inputs/outputs |
| 4OUT | Output | Amplifier channel 4 output - identical performance to 1OUT; enables independent 4-channel signal processing |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum input offset voltage specification for TLC274AIN?
The TLC274AIN has a maximum input offset voltage of 10 mV at 25°C and 12 mV across the full 0°C to 70°C operating range. This value is guaranteed per the C-suffix grade and defines the worst-case DC error introduced by the amplifier in unity-gain configurations - critical for precision sensor interfaces where offset must be trimmed or compensated in system calibration.
Does TLC274AIN support true rail-to-rail input operation?
No, the TLC274AIN does not support rail-to-rail input. Its common-mode input voltage range extends to –0.1 V (below GND) and up to 3.5 V at 5 V supply, but it does not reach VDD. However, the output is rail-to-rail - swinging from GND to within 50 mV of VDD - making it ideal for single-supply applications where input referencing is managed externally.
What package type is used for the TLC274AIN part number?
The TLC274AIN is packaged in a 14-pin plastic dual in-line package (PDIP-N), with dimensions 19.3 mm × 9.4 mm and standard 0.3 inch lead spacing. This through-hole package supports prototyping, socket-based testing, and legacy industrial PCB assemblies where surface-mount alternatives like SOIC or TSSOP are not feasible.
Can TLC274AIN operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the TLC274AIN is fully specified to operate from 3 V to 16 V, including 3.3 V nominal supplies. At 3.3 V, it maintains rail-to-rail output swing (0 V to ~3.25 V), 10.8 nV/√Hz noise, and input common-mode range down to –0.1 V - enabling direct integration with 3.3 V microcontrollers and ADCs without level-shifting circuitry.
How does the input bias current of TLC274AIN affect high-impedance sensor interfaces?
The TLC274AIN's input bias current is ≤60 pA typical, allowing use with sensor impedances up to 100 MΩ without introducing significant offset error. For example, a 10 MΩ source impedance generates only 0.6 µV of additional offset - well below its 10 mV VIO spec - making it suitable for pH electrodes, photodiode transimpedance stages, and piezoelectric charge amplifiers.
