Product details
Overview
TLC27L1IP from Texas Instruments is a low-power, single-supply operational amplifier using LinCMOS technology, featuring 10 mV max input offset voltage (25°C), 17 µA typical supply current, and rail-to-rail output swing down to the negative rail. It operates from 4 V to 16 V over −40°C to +85°C and is used in battery-powered field transmitters for pressure, flow, temperature, and level sensing.
For engineers reviewing the TLC27L1IP datasheet, TLC27L1IP pinout, TLC27L1IP application, or TLC27L1IP equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low quiescent current, input common-mode range extending below ground, high 10¹² Ω input impedance, and compatibility with single-supply sensor signal conditioning in harsh industrial environments.
Technical Context
The TLC27L1IP employs silicon-gate LinCMOS process technology to achieve exceptional input offset voltage stability (0.1 µV/month drift) and latch-up immunity, distinguishing it from bipolar op-amps. Its input stage supports common-mode voltages down to −0.2 V (at VDD = 5 V), enabling true single-supply operation without level-shifting circuitry.
It delivers 85 kHz unity-gain bandwidth and 0.03 V/µs slew rate at VDD = 5 V, with 68 nV/√Hz input-referred noise at 1 kHz - optimized for precision DC-coupled amplification rather than high-speed AC applications. Internal ESD protection meets MIL-STD-883C, Method 3015.2 (2000 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 4 V to 16 V - enables direct use with 5 V or 12 V industrial rails and extended battery life in 4–16 V systems |
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 10 mV at 25°C - sets baseline DC error budget for sensor front-end gain stages |
| Supply Current (typ) | 17 µA at 25°C - allows continuous operation for years on coin-cell batteries in remote transmitters |
| Input Impedance | 10¹² Ω typical - minimizes loading of high-impedance sensors (e.g., piezoresistive bridges, thermistors) |
| Common-Mode Input Range | Extends to −0.2 V below ground - supports single-supply interfacing with grounded-sensor configurations |
| Output Swing (low) | ≤ 50 mV above GND (IOL = 0 mA) - ensures full dynamic range utilization near negative rail |
| Input Noise Density | 68 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - suitable for low-frequency sensor signals where thermal noise dominates |
Pinout & Package
Package: PDIP-8 (Plastic Dual In-line Package, 0.300-inch width). Pin-compatible with industry-standard 8-pin DIP footprints and socket-mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OFFSET N1 (Pin 1) | Offset adjustment input (legacy silicon); NC on new silicon | Not connected in modern production - must be left floating or tied to GND per TI design guidance |
| IN− (Pin 2) | Inverting input | Differential input node; high-impedance path for feedback or signal inversion |
| IN+ (Pin 3) | Noninverting input | Differential input node; accepts sensor reference or buffered signal |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground reference | Negative power rail and signal return - critical for single-supply biasing stability |
| OFFSET N2 (Pin 5) | Offset adjustment input (legacy silicon); NC on new silicon | Not connected in modern production - must be left floating or tied to GND |
| OUT (Pin 6) | Amplifier output | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±30 mA; swings within 50 mV of GND and 1.1 V of VDD |
| VDD (Pin 7) | Positive power supply | Primary supply connection; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm for stability |
| VDD (Pin 8) | Positive power supply (redundant) | Second VDD pin for improved power distribution and reduced package inductance |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-power operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC27L1CP | Same electrical specs but rated for 0°C to +70°C only; PDIP-8 package identical | Restricted to commercial-temperature environments (e.g., indoor control panels) | Select when ambient temperature stays within 0–70°C and cost is prioritized over extended temp range |
| TLV2461IP | Lower 25 µV max VIO, 22 µA IDD, rail-to-rail I/O, but requires ≥2.7 V supply and has higher 28 nV/√Hz noise | Better DC precision but less suitable for ultra-low-noise, low-frequency sensor apps | Choose for higher-accuracy, lower-voltage (2.7–6 V) designs where noise <28 nV/√Hz is acceptable |
Compared with TLC27L1CP and TLV2461IP, the TLC27L1IP uniquely balances extended temperature operation (−40°C to +85°C), ultra-low IDD (17 µA), and proven LinCMOS stability - making it optimal for unattended, battery-powered field transmitters where long-term drift and wide ambient range are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TLC27L1IP?
The TLC27L1IP is characterized for operation from −40°C to +85°C. This extended industrial temperature range is confirmed in Section 5.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) and Section 5.7 (Electrical Characteristics, I Suffix) of the official Texas Instruments datasheet SLOS154C. The 'I' suffix explicitly denotes this temperature grade, making TLC27L1IP suitable for outdoor or uncontrolled-environment deployments where the TLC27L1CP (0°C to +70°C) would not suffice.
Does the TLC27L1IP support true single-supply operation with inputs referenced to ground?
Yes, the TLC27L1IP supports true single-supply operation with inputs referenced to ground. Its common-mode input voltage range extends to −0.2 V (at VDD = 5 V), allowing the IN+ and IN− pins to accept signals at or slightly below ground potential. This capability eliminates the need for external level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with grounded-sensor configurations such as strain-gauge bridges or thermocouples with cold-junction compensation - a key design advantage confirmed in Section 5.3 and Figure 4-1 of the TLC27L1IP datasheet.
What is the typical supply current consumption of the TLC27L1IP at room temperature?
The typical supply current (IDD) of the TLC27L1IP is 17 µA at 25°C and VDD = 5 V, as specified in Section 5.7 (Electrical Characteristics, I Suffix) of the TI datasheet SLOS154C. This ultra-low quiescent current enables multi-year operation from primary lithium batteries in remote sensor nodes and field transmitters - a core design objective of the LinCMOS-based TLC27L1x family.
Are the OFFSET N1 and OFFSET N2 pins functional on modern TLC27L1IP units?
No - the OFFSET N1 (Pin 1) and OFFSET N2 (Pin 5) pins are non-connected (NC) on modern TLC27L1IP production silicon. As documented in Table 4-1 (Pin Functions), these pins served as bias-select inputs on legacy silicon but are internally unconnected in current manufacturing. TI recommends leaving them floating or tying them to GND; they must not be used for offset trimming in new designs.
How does the input offset voltage drift specification impact long-term calibration of systems using the TLC27L1IP?
The TLC27L1IP exhibits an input offset voltage drift of typically 0.1 µV/month (including the first 30 days), as stated in the "Features" section of the datasheet. This exceptionally low drift - enabled by TI's silicon-gate LinCMOS process - ensures minimal calibration drift over years of field operation. For example, after 36 months, cumulative drift remains under 4.3 µV, preserving system accuracy without periodic recalibration - a critical advantage for inaccessible or maintenance-constrained installations like pipeline monitoring or building automation sensors.
