Product details
Overview
TLE2425IDR from Texas Instruments is a precision 2.5-V virtual ground generator IC designed for single-supply 5-V analog signal-conditioning systems. It integrates a micropower voltage reference and high-performance op-amp in one SOIC-8 package, delivering ±20 mA output current, 7.5 mΩ typical output impedance, and 170 µA quiescent bias current. It enables accurate mid-rail biasing in data acquisition front ends requiring ≥12-bit system accuracy.
For engineers reviewing the TLE2425IDR datasheet, TLE2425IDR pinout, TLE2425IDR application, or TLE2425IDR equivalent, key selection criteria include output regulation stability over temperature (±250 µV full-range), input voltage regulation (≤100 µV/V), low-noise operation (100 µV rms), and compatibility with capacitive loads up to 100 pF without instability.
Technical Context
The TLE2425IDR implements a monolithic precision regulator architecture combining a bandgap-derived 2.5-V reference with a unity-gain buffer amplifier optimized for low-output-impedance drive. Its internal design achieves simultaneous high PSRR (80 dB at 120 Hz) and fast transient response (12 µs to 0.1% on input step, 115 µs to 0.1% on ±10 mA load step).
It operates across −40°C to +85°C (I-suffix rating), supports input voltages from 4 V to 40 V, and maintains output voltage accuracy within ±20 mV over full temperature and load range. The device is internally compensated for stability with 100-pF capacitive loads and exhibits <15 ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 15 ppm long-term drift.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar virtual ground generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2425IDR | Lower quiescent current (120 µA), reduced output current (±10 mA), same SOIC-8 package | Better suited for ultra-low-power battery systems but insufficient for high-current sensor excitation | Select when bias current <150 µA is mandatory and load current stays below ±8 mA |
| REF2025AIDR | Fixed 2.5-V precision reference only (no output buffer); requires external op-amp for drive capability | Higher accuracy (±0.1%) but adds complexity, board space, and thermal drift from discrete buffer | Choose only when absolute initial accuracy >2.5 V ±0.5 mV is required and design can accommodate external amplification |
Compared with TLV2425IDR and REF2025AIDR, the TLE2425IDR uniquely delivers integrated 2.5-V regulation with ±20 mA drive and 7.5-mΩ impedance in a single SOIC-8 footprint-enabling simpler, more robust analog signal chains where both precision and drive strength are critical.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the TLE2425IDR?
The TLE2425IDR is rated for −40°C to +85°C (I-suffix grade), validated across this full range for output voltage accuracy, load regulation, and transient response. Electrical characteristics tables in the datasheet specify performance limits at both extremes, ensuring reliable operation in industrial control and automotive under-hood environments where ambient temperatures fluctuate widely.
Can the TLE2425IDR drive capacitive loads without oscillation?
Yes, the TLE2425IDR is internally compensated for stability with up to 100 pF of capacitive load, as confirmed in Figure 16 of the datasheet. This eliminates the need for external compensation components and supports direct connection to ADC input capacitors, filter networks, or long PCB traces without risk of peaking or ringing in the output response.
How does the TLE2425IDR improve system-level accuracy compared to a resistor divider?
The TLE2425IDR improves system-level accuracy by replacing passive resistor dividers with a monolithic 2.5-V reference and low-impedance buffer. Unlike resistive networks, it avoids resistor tolerance errors, thermal drift mismatch, and load-dependent voltage droop-delivering consistent 2.5 V ±20 mV across temperature and load, which directly enhances linearity in 12-bit+ data acquisition systems.
What is the maximum continuous input voltage the TLE2425IDR supports?
The TLE2425IDR supports a continuous input voltage range of 4 V to 40 V, per its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This wide range allows use with unregulated 5-V, 12-V, or 24-V industrial power supplies while maintaining regulated 2.5-V output-making it suitable for applications where input rail stability cannot be guaranteed.
Does the TLE2425IDR require external components for basic operation?
No, the TLE2425IDR requires no external components for basic operation: only input (IN), output (OUT), and ground (COMMON) connections are needed. The NC pins (4–8) must remain unconnected. While optional bypass capacitors (e.g., 0.1 µF ceramic near IN) improve high-frequency PSRR, they are not mandatory for functional operation per the datasheet's recommended conditions.
