Product details
Overview
TLC27L2ACD from Texas Instruments is a precision dual CMOS operational amplifier optimized for low-power, single-supply sensor signal conditioning. It delivers 5 mV max input offset voltage at 25°C, ultra-low 34 µA typical supply current (VDD = 5 V), and rail-to-rail output swing down to the negative rail - enabling accurate amplification in battery-powered field transmitters and smoke detectors.
For engineers reviewing the TLC27L2ACD datasheet, TLC27L2ACD pinout, TLC27L2ACD application, or TLC27L2ACD equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0°C to 70°C operating range, SOIC-8 package, LinCMOS™ input stage with 10¹² Ω impedance, and verified performance in low-voltage analog front-ends requiring long-term offset stability and ESD robustness.
Technical Context
The TLC27L2ACD uses Texas Instruments' silicon-gate LinCMOS™ process to achieve high DC precision and low power simultaneously. Its input stage provides 10¹² Ω input impedance and sub-picoampere bias currents, while the output stage supports rail-to-rail swing with 3.2 V high-level output and 1 mV low-level output (VDD = 5 V).
It operates from 3 V to 16 V over 0°C–70°C, supports single-supply operation with common-mode input extending 0.2 V below ground, and incorporates internal ESD protection rated to 2000 V per MIL-STD-883C Method 3015.2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 5 mV at 25°C - enables direct interfacing with low-output sensors without trimming |
| Supply Current (typ) | 34 µA at VDD = 5 V - supports >10-year battery life in remote sensor nodes |
| Input Impedance | 10¹² Ω - prevents loading of high-impedance sources like piezoelectric or pH electrodes |
| Common-Mode Input Range | −0.2 V to 3.5 V (VDD = 5 V) - allows sensing signals referenced to ground in single-supply systems |
| Output Voltage Swing | 1 mV to 4.1 V (VDD = 5 V) - maximizes dynamic range for ADC input stages |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 85 kHz at 25°C - sufficient for DC–10 kHz sensor signal conditioning and filtering |
| ESD Protection | 2000 V HBM - reduces need for external protection in industrial field environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual precision op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV27L2CD | Lower 25 µA supply current, 2 mV VIO max, same SOIC-8 package | Better suited for ultra-low-power designs where offset tolerance allows 2 mV | Select when lower quiescent current is critical and tighter offset is acceptable |
| LMV358IDR | Higher 80 µA supply current, 7 mV VIO max, rail-to-rail I/O, wider 2.7–5.5 V range | Optimized for 3.3 V systems; less suitable for 5–16 V industrial supplies | Choose for modern 3.3 V embedded systems where higher power budget exists |
Compared with TLV27L2CD and LMV358IDR, the TLC27L2ACD offers superior offset voltage (5 mV vs 2 mV/7 mV) and broader supply range (3–16 V vs 2.7–5.5 V), making it uniquely suitable for legacy and industrial 5–12 V sensor interfaces requiring long-term DC stability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TLC27L2ACD?
The TLC27L2ACD is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. This C-suffix grade is intended for commercial and industrial indoor applications where ambient temperatures remain within this range. It is not rated for extended temperature operation like the I-suffix (−40°C to +85°C) or M-suffix (−55°C to +125°C) variants. Always verify thermal derating in PCB layout for sustained 70°C ambient conditions.
Does the TLC27L2ACD support true rail-to-rail input?
The TLC27L2ACD does not support rail-to-rail input; its common-mode input voltage range extends to −0.2 V (0.2 V below GND) and up to 3.5 V when VDD = 5 V. However, it does provide rail-to-rail output swing - delivering as low as 1 mV above GND and as high as 4.1 V below VDD. This asymmetry makes it ideal for single-supply systems with grounded sensors but requires input biasing for full-rail input signals.
What package type is used for the TLC27L2ACD?
The TLC27L2ACD is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, designated "D" in TI's packaging nomenclature. It measures 3.9 mm × 4.9 mm with 1.27 mm lead pitch and is RoHS-compliant. This surface-mount package supports automated assembly and provides thermal and mechanical reliability for industrial PCBs.
How does the input offset voltage drift of the TLC27L2ACD impact long-term calibration?
The TLC27L2ACD exhibits typically 0.1 µV/month input offset voltage drift, including the first 30 days. Over 10 years, this accumulates to ~12 µV - well below its 5 mV initial specification. This exceptional stability means field-deployed systems (e.g., smoke detectors or transmitters) can maintain accuracy without periodic recalibration, reducing maintenance cost and improving functional safety compliance.
Can the TLC27L2ACD drive capacitive loads directly?
The TLC27L2ACD is not unity-gain stable into heavy capacitive loads. Its phase margin drops to 30° at 70°C with 20 pF load, indicating potential instability above ~100 pF. For driving ADC input capacitors or cables, use a series resistor (≥100 Ω) between output and load, or add a small isolation capacitor (1–10 pF) in the feedback path. Refer to Figure 5-29 in the datasheet for phase margin vs. capacitive load curves.
