Product details
Overview
TLC27L7CP from Texas Instruments is a precision dual CMOS operational amplifier optimized for low-power, single-supply sensor signal conditioning. It delivers 1 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 amplification in battery-powered field transmitters and smoke detectors.
For engineers reviewing the TLC27L7CP datasheet, TLC27L7CP pinout, TLC27L7CP application, or TLC27L7CP equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, validated pin functions, real-world use cases in industrial sensing, and confirmed alternative options with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The TLC27L7CP uses Texas Instruments' LinCMOS™ silicon-gate process to achieve high input impedance (10¹² Ω), sub-1 pA input bias current, and exceptional offset voltage stability (0.1 µV/month drift). Its architecture supports single-supply operation from 3 V to 16 V with common-mode input range extending 0.2 V below ground - critical for direct interfacing with grounded sensors.
It features internal ESD protection rated to 2000 V (MIL-STD-883C, Method 3015.2) and latch-up immunity. The device is characterized for 0°C to 70°C operation (C-suffix), making it suitable for commercial-grade instrumentation where long-term parametric stability and low quiescent power are mandatory.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage (max) | 1000 µV at 25°C - enables high-accuracy DC-coupled amplification without frequent nulling. |
| Supply Current (typ) | 34 µA at VDD = 5 V - supports >10-year battery life in remote 4–20 mA loop-powered transmitters. |
| Input Bias Current (max) | 60 pA at 25°C - preserves signal integrity when driving high-impedance sources like piezoresistive sensors. |
| Common-Mode Input Range | −0.2 V to 3.5 V (VDD = 5 V) - allows direct connection to 0 V-referenced transducer outputs. |
| Output Voltage Swing | Within 50 mV of negative rail - ensures full dynamic range utilization in single-supply configurations. |
| Unity-Gain Bandwidth | 85 kHz at VDD = 5 V - sufficient for filtering and amplifying slow-varying industrial sensor signals (e.g., pressure, temperature). |
| CMRR (min) | 60 dB over 0°C to 70°C - rejects noise from shared power rails in multi-channel analog front-ends. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin PDIP (P), through-hole, 0.3-inch width. Compatible with standard DIP sockets and wave-solder processes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1IN+ | Noninverting input, Channel 1 | High-impedance node for reference or sensor signal injection; accepts voltages down to −0.2 V. |
| 1IN− | Inverting input, Channel 1 | Feedback node for closed-loop gain configuration; matched to 1IN+ for minimal input offset error. |
| 1OUT | Output, Channel 1 | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±30 mA; swings within 50 mV of GND and up to VOH ≈ 4.1 V (VDD = 5 V). |
| GND | Ground / Negative supply | Reference for both inputs and outputs; common return path for dual-amplifier load currents. |
| 2IN+ | Noninverting input, Channel 2 | Independent high-Z input for second sensor channel or reference buffer; identical specs to 1IN+. |
| 2IN− | Inverting input, Channel 2 | Separate feedback node; enables dual independent amplifiers on one die without crosstalk degradation. |
| 2OUT | Output, Channel 2 | Electrically isolated output stage; supports simultaneous dual-signal conditioning (e.g., differential pair + reference). |
| VDD | Positive supply | Accepts 3–16 V; powers both amplifiers; supply rejection ratio ≥60 dB minimizes ripple coupling into output. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low power consumption | 34 µA supply current enables continuous operation from coin-cell batteries for >5 years in motion detectors. |
| Rail-to-rail output capability | Output reaches within 50 mV of GND, maximizing usable dynamic range in 5 V single-supply systems. |
| LinCMOS™ process technology | Delivers 10¹² Ω input impedance and <1 pA bias current - essential for interfacing with high-Z pH or gas sensors. |
| Extended common-mode range | Inputs operate 0.2 V below GND, eliminating need for level-shifting circuitry in grounded-source applications. |
| ESD protection (2000 V) | MIL-STD-883C-compliant protection prevents field failures during handling and PCB assembly. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision dual op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC27L7IP | Same electrical specs, but rated for −40°C to +85°C operating range (I-suffix) and packaged in 8-pin PDIP. | Required for extended-temperature industrial environments (e.g., outdoor pressure transmitters). | Select TLC27L7IP when ambient operating temperature exceeds 70°C or falls below 0°C. |
| TLV2462CP | Higher supply current (550 µA), rail-to-rail I/O, 6.4 MHz GBW, but 3 mV VIO (max) - less precise than TLC27L7CP. | Better for AC-coupled, higher-speed applications (e.g., audio preamps); unsuitable for µV-level DC sensing. | Choose TLV2462CP only if bandwidth >100 kHz is required and offset tolerance >3 mV is acceptable. |
Compared with TLC27L7IP, the TLC27L7CP offers lower cost and tighter thermal qualification for commercial equipment; compared with TLV2462CP, it trades bandwidth for 3× lower offset and 16× lower power - making it superior for precision, battery-constrained sensing.

FAQ
What is the maximum input offset voltage specification for TLC27L7CP at 25°C?
The TLC27L7CP has a maximum input offset voltage of 1000 µV (1 mV) at 25°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table for C-suffix devices under VDD = 5 V test conditions. This value is guaranteed across the 0°C to 70°C operating range, with worst-case 1500 µV at temperature extremes.
Does TLC27L7CP support true single-supply operation with inputs referenced to ground?
Yes, the TLC27L7CP supports true single-supply operation: its common-mode input voltage range extends to −0.2 V (below GND) at VDD = 5 V, allowing direct interface with grounded sensors such as thermistors or bridge outputs without level-shifting circuitry - a key feature confirmed in Section 5.3 Recommended Operating Conditions.
What is the typical supply current draw of TLC27L7CP at 5 V?
The TLC27L7CP draws a typical supply current of 34 µA at VDD = 5 V and 25°C, with a maximum of 42 µA over the full 0°C to 70°C range. This ultra-low quiescent current is measured with both amplifiers active and no output load, enabling multi-year operation from primary lithium cells.
Which package types are available for TLC27L7CP?
The TLC27L7CP is offered exclusively in the 8-pin PDIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package) with 0.3-inch lead spacing. This through-hole package is distinct from SOIC (D), SOP (PS), or TSSOP (PW) variants - all other suffixes (e.g., TLC27L7CDR) denote different packages or temperature grades, not the CP variant.
Is TLC27L7CP pin-compatible with other TLC27Lx series devices?
Yes, all TLC27Lx dual op-amps - including TLC27L2CP, TLC27L2ACP, TLC27L2BCP, and TLC27L7CP - share identical 8-pin PDIP pinouts and footprints. This allows direct substitution within the same temperature grade (C-suffix) for offset voltage optimization without PCB redesign.
