Product details
Overview
TLC27L4BCD from Texas Instruments is a precision quad operational amplifier in SOIC-14 package, designed for low-power, single-supply sensor signal conditioning. It delivers 2 mV max input offset voltage (25°C), ultra-low 195 µW quiescent power at 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 TLC27L4BCD datasheet, TLC27L4BCD pinout, TLC27L4BCD application, or TLC27L4BCD equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs, validated pin functions, confirmed operating conditions (0°C to 70°C, 3–16 V), and real-world design context for analog front-end integration in industrial sensing systems.
Technical Context
The TLC27L4BCD uses TI's LinCMOS™ silicon-gate process to achieve high input impedance (10¹² Ω typical), sub-picoamp input bias current (0.6 pA typ at 25°C), and latch-up immunity - all while maintaining stable offset drift (0.1 µV/month). Its common-mode input range extends 0.2 V below ground, supporting true single-supply operation without level-shifting circuitry.
It features four independent op-amp channels with identical AC/DC performance: unity-gain bandwidth of 85 kHz (VDD = 5 V), slew rate of 0.03 V/µs, and phase margin of 34° - optimized for stable closed-loop operation with capacitive loads up to 20 pF and no external compensation required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 2 mV at 25°C - enables <1% error in 2 V full-scale sensor outputs without trimming |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 16 V - supports direct connection to 3.3 V, 5 V, or 12 V rails without regulators |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 68 µA (max, 4 amps) at 25°C - draws only 340 nA per amplifier, ideal for multi-year battery life |
| Input Bias Current (typ) | 0.6 pA at 25°C - minimizes voltage error across high-impedance sources like thermistors or pH electrodes |
| Common-Mode Input Range | –0.2 V to 3.5 V (VDD = 5 V) - accepts signals below ground, simplifying single-supply transducer interfacing |
| Output Voltage Swing | Within 50 mV of GND and within 0.9 V of VDD - delivers usable dynamic range in low-voltage systems |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 85 kHz at VDD = 5 V - sufficient for DC–10 kHz sensor signals including pressure, temperature, and flow |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-Z buffer and gain stage for high-impedance sensor elements exposed to moisture and wide temperature swings. Use Value: 10¹² Ω input impedance prevents loading of capacitive sensors; SOIC-14 package supports conformal coating for harsh environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad precision op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC27L4CD | Higher max VIO (10 mV vs 2 mV); otherwise identical SOIC-14 pinout, supply range, and power | Suitable for cost-sensitive, non-critical gain stages where 1% accuracy suffices | Select TLC27L4CD only when offset budget allows ≥10× higher VIO; not drop-in for precision sensor paths |
| TLV2464IDR | Rail-to-rail input/output; 600 µA per amp; 2.2 MHz GBW; VIO = 2.5 mV max - higher speed and power | Better for active filters or faster sensor loops (>100 kHz), but increases battery drain 17× | Choose TLV2464IDR only when bandwidth >100 kHz is required; avoid in ultra-low-power designs |
Compared with TLC27L4CD and TLV2464IDR, the TLC27L4BCD uniquely balances microamp-level quiescent current, sub-2-mV offset, and industrial temperature range - making it optimal for battery-operated, long-life sensor transmitters where precision and power are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the TLC27L4BCD?
The TLC27L4BCD is characterized for operation from 0°C to +70°C (C-suffix grade). It supports supply voltages from 3 V to 16 V across this full range, with guaranteed performance for input offset voltage (≤3 mV), supply current (≤84 µA), and output swing (≥3 V into 1 MΩ) at 70°C.
Does the TLC27L4BCD support true single-supply operation with inputs referenced to ground?
Yes - the TLC27L4BCD's common-mode input voltage range extends to –0.2 V (at VDD = 5 V), allowing both inputs to be biased at or slightly below ground. This enables direct interface to grounded transducers without level-shifting circuitry, a key enabler for single-supply sensor front ends.
What is the typical input bias current of the TLC27L4BCD, and why does it matter for sensor applications?
The TLC27L4BCD has a typical input bias current of 0.6 pA at 25°C. This ultra-low value prevents significant voltage error across high-impedance sensor elements (e.g., pH electrodes or unbuffered thermistors), preserving signal integrity without requiring guard traces or active guarding techniques.
Can the TLC27L4BCD drive a 10 kΩ load while maintaining rail-to-rail output swing?
Yes - the TLC27L4BCD guarantees low-level output voltage ≤50 mV above GND and high-level output voltage ≥3.2 V (at VDD = 5 V) into a 1 MΩ load. Driving 10 kΩ degrades swing by <100 mV due to output impedance; for full rail-to-rail performance, keep load ≥100 kΩ or add a buffer stage.
Is the TLC27L4BCD pin-compatible with other devices in the TLC27Lx family?
Yes - all TLC27Lx quad op-amps (including TLC27L4CD, TLC27L4ACD, TLC27L4BCD, and TLC27L9CD) share identical SOIC-14 pinout, supply connections, and channel mapping. Only input offset voltage grade and temperature range differ; PCB layout is fully reusable across the family.
