Product details
Overview
TLC27L2ACP from Texas Instruments is a precision dual CMOS operational amplifier in PDIP-8 package, featuring 10 mV max input offset voltage (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 signal conditioning in low-power sensor interfaces and battery-powered field transmitters.
For engineers reviewing the TLC27L2ACP datasheet, TLC27L2ACP pinout, TLC27L2ACP application, or TLC27L2ACP equivalent, key selection criteria include its LinCMOS™ input stage (10¹² Ω input impedance, <60 pA bias current), single-supply operation (3–16 V), −0.2 V to 3.5 V common-mode input range at 5 V, and guaranteed performance across 0°C to 70°C.
Technical Context
The TLC27L2ACP uses silicon-gate LinCMOS™ technology to achieve exceptional DC precision and stability - including 0.1 µV/month input offset drift and 1.1 µV/°C temperature coefficient - while maintaining ultra-low power consumption. Its architecture supports single-supply operation with inputs extending below ground and outputs swinging to the negative rail.
It delivers 85 kHz unity-gain bandwidth and 0.03 V/µs slew rate at 5 V, optimized for low-frequency precision applications such as transmitter front-ends and analog sensor buffering where gain accuracy, noise (68 nV/√Hz), and long-term offset stability are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 10 mV at 25°C - sets worst-case DC error in high-gain sensor amplifiers without trimming |
| Supply Current (typ) | 34 µA at VDD = 5 V - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in remote sensors |
| 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 at VDD = 5 V - allows direct interfacing to grounded-sensor outputs |
| Output Voltage Swing | Within 50 mV of negative rail - preserves dynamic range in single-supply systems |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 85 kHz - sufficient for 50/60 Hz filtering, thermocouple amplification, and slow-process control loops |
| Input Bias Current (max) | 60 pA at 70°C - ensures minimal offset error in high-resistance feedback networks |
Pinout & Package

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC27L2CDR | SOIC-8 package, same electrical specs, tape-and-reel packaging | Suitable for automated SMT assembly; no through-hole footprint required | Select when PCB layout uses surface-mount technology and volume production demands reel delivery |
| LMV358IDR | Higher supply current (80 µA typ), wider GBW (1 MHz), but only 7 mV VIO max and no extended common-mode range below rail | Better for higher-speed signal paths but less suitable for sub-mV DC precision or grounded-sensor interfaces | Choose for cost-sensitive, moderate-precision apps where speed > offset stability; not drop-in for TLC27L2ACP's low-drift use cases |
Compared with TLC27L2CDR and LMV358IDR, the TLC27L2ACP offers unique through-hole manufacturability with uncompromised LinCMOS™ precision - making it optimal for prototyping, repair, and low-volume industrial modules where long-term DC stability and single-supply sensor interfacing are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TLC27L2ACP?
The TLC27L2ACP is characterized for operation from 0°C to +70°C, as indicated by its "C" suffix. It supports supply voltages from 3 V to 16 V within this range, with guaranteed specifications including input offset voltage ≤12 mV and supply current ≤42 µA at 70°C. Operation outside this range is not specified and may result in parametric degradation.
Does the TLC27L2ACP support true rail-to-rail input operation?
The TLC27L2ACP does not support rail-to-rail input - its common-mode input voltage range extends to −0.2 V (below GND) and up to 3.5 V at VDD = 5 V, but does not reach the positive rail. However, its output swings within 50 mV of GND and within 0.9 V of VDD, providing partial rail-to-rail output capability essential for single-supply designs.
Can the TLC27L2ACP drive capacitive loads directly?
The TLC27L2ACP exhibits ≥34° phase margin with 20 pF load at unity gain, but its stability degrades with larger capacitive loads. Driving >100 pF directly risks oscillation; for such cases, an isolation resistor (e.g., 100 Ω) between output and load is recommended. The TLC27L2ACP datasheet confirms stable operation only with CL ≤ 20 pF in standard test configurations.
How does the input offset voltage drift of the TLC27L2ACP compare to bipolar op amps?
The TLC27L2ACP specifies typical input offset voltage drift of 0.1 μV/month - significantly lower than most bipolar op amps (often >1 μV/month). This stability stems from its LinCMOS™ silicon-gate process, which avoids the oxide-trap mechanisms dominant in metal-gate devices, making the TLC27L2ACP superior for applications demanding decade-long calibration retention.
Is the TLC27L2ACP pin-compatible with other dual op amps in PDIP-8 packages?
The TLC27L2ACP follows the industry-standard dual op amp pinout (1IN+, 1IN−, 1OUT, GND, 2IN+, 2IN−, 2OUT, VDD) and is pin-compatible with LM358, TL072, and RC4558 in PDIP-8. However, electrical behavior differs significantly - e.g., TLC27L2ACP draws 34 µA vs LM358's 700 µA, and has 10¹² Ω input Z vs LM358's 2 MΩ - so functional substitution requires circuit validation.
