Product details
Overview
TLC27L9CDR from Texas Instruments is a precision quad operational amplifier using LinCMOS™ technology, designed for ultra-low-power, single-supply sensor signal conditioning. It delivers 1 mV max input offset voltage (25°C), 10¹² Ω input impedance, 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 TLC27L9CDR datasheet, TLC27L9CDR pinout, TLC27L9CDR application, or TLC27L9CDR equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, SOIC-14 pin mapping, real-world use cases in industrial sensing, and two validated alternative op amps with documented parameter and temperature-range differences.
Technical Context
The TLC27L9CDR implements a silicon-gate LinCMOS™ input stage that achieves sub-picoampere bias current (0.6 pA typ at 25°C) and exceptional offset stability (0.1 µV/month drift), avoiding bipolar power penalties while retaining high DC precision. Its common-mode input range extends 0.2 V below GND, supporting true single-supply operation from 3 V to 16 V.
It features four independent amplifiers in one package, each with unity-gain bandwidth of 85 kHz (VDD = 5 V), slew rate of 0.03 V/µs, and phase margin of 34° - optimized for stable low-frequency instrumentation loops rather than high-speed signal processing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Offset Voltage | Max 1000 µV at 25°C - enables <1 LSB error in 10-bit ADC interfaces with gain ≤100 |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 16 V (0°C to 70°C) - supports direct connection to 3.3 V, 5 V, or 12 V rails without regulation |
| Input Impedance | 10¹² Ω typical - minimizes loading on high-Z sources like pH electrodes or piezoresistive sensors |
| Quiescent Current | 68 µA max per amplifier (4 amps total) - allows >10-year battery life in 25 µA average-current designs |
| Common-Mode Range | Extends 0.2 V below GND - permits accurate amplification of signals referenced to ground in single-supply systems |
| Output Swing | Drives to within 1 mV of GND and 0.9 V of VDD (at 1 MΩ load) - maximizes dynamic range in low-voltage data acquisition |
| ESD Rating | 2000 V HBM - meets industrial handling requirements without additional protection circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision quad op amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC27L9IDR | Wider temp range (–40°C to +85°C) vs. TLC27L9CDR (0°C to 70°C); same offset (1 mV), bias current (0.7 pA), and SOIC-14 package | Required for outdoor or automotive-adjacent industrial enclosures; not needed for indoor climate-controlled installations | Select TLC27L9IDR when ambient operating temperature exceeds 70°C or drops below 0°C |
| TLV27L4CDR | Lower supply current (32 µA typ vs. 68 µA), higher offset (2 mV max), same SOIC-14 footprint and LinCMOS process | Better suited for ultra-low-power portable devices where 1 mV offset is non-critical; not recommended for precision metrology | Choose TLV27L4CDR only if power budget is tighter than 50 µA per amp and offset tolerance ≥2 mV is acceptable |
Compared with TLC27L9CDR, TLC27L9IDR extends thermal capability without sacrificing precision, while TLV27L4CDR trades offset accuracy for lower quiescent current - making TLC27L9CDR optimal for cost-sensitive, indoor, precision sensor nodes requiring guaranteed 1 mV performance at 25°C.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the TLC27L9CDR?
The TLC27L9CDR is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. Its electrical specifications - including input offset voltage (1000 µV max), supply current (68 µA max), and common-mode range - are guaranteed only within this ambient temperature range. Operation outside this window may degrade performance or violate absolute maximum ratings.
Does the TLC27L9CDR support true rail-to-rail input?
No, the TLC27L9CDR does not support rail-to-rail input. Its common-mode input voltage range extends to –0.2 V (below GND) and up to VDD – 1.5 V (e.g., 3.5 V at VDD = 5 V). However, it does provide rail-to-rail output swing - driving as low as 1 mV above GND and as high as VDD – 0.9 V under 1 MΩ load - which is confirmed in Section 5.4 of the TLC27L9CDR datasheet.
Can the TLC27L9CDR be used with a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the TLC27L9CDR operates reliably at 3.3 V. Its minimum specified supply voltage is 3 V across the 0°C to 70°C range. At 3.3 V, it maintains 1000 µV max input offset, 0.6 pA typical input bias current, and rail-to-rail output swing - making it suitable for modern low-voltage sensor nodes without level-shifting circuitry.
Is the TLC27L9CDR pin-compatible with other TLC27Lx variants?
Yes, all TLC27Lx quad op amps - including TLC27L4CDR, TLC27L4ACDR, TLC27L4BCDR, and TLC27L9CDR - share identical SOIC-14 (D) pinouts and footprints. This allows drop-in replacement within the same temperature grade (C-suffix) when upgrading offset precision, provided PCB layout accommodates the same 8.65 mm × 3.91 mm package.
What is the typical input noise voltage of the TLC27L9CDR?
The TLC27L9CDR exhibits a typical equivalent input noise voltage of 70 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz, as measured with RS = 20 Ω and specified in Sections 5.5 and 5.9 of its datasheet. This value remains stable across temperature and supply voltage variations, supporting low-noise amplification of microvolt-level sensor signals.
