Product details
Overview
TLV2231IDBVRG4 from Texas Instruments is a single, rail-to-rail output, low-power LinCMOS™ operational amplifier in SOT-23-5 package. It delivers 2 MHz gain-bandwidth, 1.6 V/µs slew rate at 5 V, 15 nV/√Hz input voltage noise, 1 pA typical input bias current, and operates from 2.7 V to 10 V - optimized for low-voltage signal conditioning in battery-powered sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TLV2231IDBVRG4 datasheet, TLV2231IDBVRG4 pinout, TLV2231IDBVRG4 application, or TLV2231IDBVRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include rail-to-rail output swing into 600 Ω loads, −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating, micropower operation (≤1.3 mA supply current), and high-impedance input compatibility with piezoelectric transducers and ADC front-ends.
Technical Context
The TLV2231IDBVRG4 uses LinCMOS™ process technology to achieve ultra-low input bias current (1 pA typ) and high input impedance (>1 TΩ common-mode resistance), enabling accurate amplification of high-impedance sources without loading error. Its rail-to-rail output stage supports full dynamic range in single-supply systems down to 3 V.
It features internal compensation for unity-gain stability with 600 Ω load and 100 pF capacitance, delivering 48° phase margin at 5 V. The device is fully characterized across −40°C to +85°C and specified for both 3 V and 5 V operation, with input common-mode range extending to the negative rail.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 10 V - enables direct use in 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level-shifting or LDO overhead |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 2 MHz at VDD = 5 V - supports stable closed-loop gain up to ~20 at 100 kHz for anti-aliasing or sensor filtering |
| Slew Rate | 1.6 V/µs at VDD = 5 V - sufficient for 100 kHz full-scale sine output with ≤1 Vpp amplitude without distortion |
| Input Voltage Noise | 15 nV/√Hz at f = 1 kHz - preserves SNR in low-level audio preamp and precision transducer signal chains |
| Input Bias Current | 1 pA typ - minimizes voltage error across >1 MΩ source impedances (e.g., pH electrodes, photodiodes) |
| Output Swing | Rail-to-rail - delivers >98% of supply range into 600 Ω, maximizing ADC utilization in single-supply data acquisition |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial PLC I/O modules and server PSU monitoring circuits |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package: 2.9 mm × 2.8 mm footprint, surface-mount, tape-and-reel compatible; optimized layout separates IN+ and IN− by GND to suppress coupling, places OUT and IN− on same side for compact feedback routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: IN+ | Noninverting input | High-impedance node (1 TΩ) for reference or sensor signal; accepts common-mode voltage down to VDD− |
| 2: VDD−/GND | Negative power supply / ground | Reference return for all signals; must be low-impedance path to minimize noise coupling into inputs |
| 3: IN− | Inverting input | Feedback node; placed adjacent to OUT (Pin 4) to minimize parasitic inductance in high-frequency loops |
| 4: OUT | Amplifier output | Capable of sourcing/sinking ±4 mA into 600 Ω; rail-to-rail swing supports direct interface to SAR ADC references |
| 5: VDD+ | Positive power supply | Accepts 2.7–10 V; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required within 2 mm for stable high-frequency performance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Delivers full supply voltage range (e.g., 0–4.9 V at 5 V supply) into 600 Ω, eliminating need for dual supplies in ADC driver stages |
| 1 pA typical input bias current | Enables use with >10 MΩ source impedances (e.g., piezoelectric sensors) without significant offset drift or signal attenuation |
| 15 nV/√Hz input voltage noise | Supports 16-bit+ resolution in low-frequency (<10 kHz) measurement systems where thermal noise dominates |
| 2 MHz GBW at 5 V | Allows stable unity-gain configuration with 600 Ω load and 100 pF capacitance - verified via 48° phase margin |
| Specified at 3 V and 5 V | Guarantees performance across common low-voltage rails; eliminates design revalidation when migrating between 3.3 V and 5 V platforms |
Applications
| Low-Power Audio Preamplifier | Multiplexed Data-Acquisition Systems |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA333AIDBVR | Zero-drift architecture; 0.1 µV/°C offset drift vs TLV2231IDBVRG4's 0.5 µV/°C; higher 350 kHz GBW but lower 0.16 V/µs slew rate | Better for DC-critical applications (e.g., weigh scales); less suitable for AC-coupled audio or fast pulse conditioning | Select OPA333AIDBVR when offset drift dominates error budget; TLV2231IDBVRG4 preferred for bandwidth/noise trade-off in sensor front-ends |
| MCP6001UT-E/OT | Lower 1 MHz GBW and 0.6 V/µs slew rate; 100 nA input bias current (vs 1 pA); same SOT-23-5 package and 1.8–6 V supply range | Cost-optimized for non-critical general-purpose buffering; unsuitable for high-impedance or low-noise designs | Choose MCP6001UT-E/OT only for low-cost, low-performance roles (e.g., LED bias control); TLV2231IDBVRG4 remains optimal for precision sensing |
Compared with OPA333AIDBVR and MCP6001UT-E/OT, TLV2231IDBVRG4 uniquely balances rail-to-rail output, 1 pA input bias, 15 nV/√Hz noise, and 2 MHz bandwidth - making it the only option among the three qualified for simultaneous high-impedance source interfacing and moderate-speed signal conditioning in industrial temperature environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum capacitive load the TLV2231IDBVRG4 can drive stably?
The TLV2231IDBVRG4 is unity-gain stable with up to 100 pF capacitive load when driving a 600 Ω resistor, achieving 48° phase margin at 5 V. For larger loads (e.g., >500 pF), an isolation resistor (RISO ≈ 50 Ω) in series with the output restores stability without degrading DC accuracy - a technique validated in TI's application note SLOS158E Section 7.1. This makes TLV2231IDBVRG4 suitable for driving ADC reference inputs and cable-shield buffers.
Does the TLV2231IDBVRG4 support true rail-to-rail input common-mode range?
No - the TLV2231IDBVRG4 supports rail-to-rail *output* swing, but its input common-mode voltage range extends only to the negative rail (VDD−) and up to (VDD+ − 1.3 V). At 5 V supply, this yields a usable input range of 0 V to 3.7 V. This limitation is explicitly defined in Section 6.3 Recommended Operating Conditions and confirmed in Figures 6-3 and 6-4 of the datasheet. For full rail-to-rail input, consider TI's TLV9001 or similar devices.
What is the guaranteed input offset voltage specification for TLV2231IDBVRG4 over temperature?
The TLV2231IDBVRG4 has a maximum input offset voltage of 3 mV across its full operating range of −40°C to +85°C, as specified in Sections 6.4 and 6.6 of the datasheet for both 3 V and 5 V supply conditions. Its temperature coefficient is tightly controlled at 0.5 µV/°C typ, ensuring minimal drift - for example, contributing only ~60 µV additional offset over an 120°C span. This performance is validated for the "I" grade (industrial temperature) variant, which TLV2231IDBVRG4 belongs to.
Can TLV2231IDBVRG4 operate from a 2.7 V single supply while maintaining rail-to-rail output?
Yes - the TLV2231IDBVRG4 is fully specified for 2.7 V single-supply operation per Section 6.3 Recommended Operating Conditions. At 2.7 V, it delivers rail-to-rail output swing (e.g., ~0.05 V to ~2.65 V into 600 Ω), with 1.9 MHz gain-bandwidth and 0.24 V/µs slew rate (Section 6.5). This enables reliable use in energy-harvesting and ultra-low-power sensor nodes where supply headroom is constrained, without sacrificing dynamic range or stability.
Is TLV2231IDBVRG4 pin-compatible with other SOT-23-5 op amps like the TLV2461 or OPA344?
No - TLV2231IDBVRG4 uses TI's standard SOT-23-5 pinout (IN+, GND, IN−, OUT, VDD+), but TLV2461 and OPA344 follow different pin assignments (e.g., TLV2461 places VDD+ on Pin 1 and IN+ on Pin 2). Swapping them without board revision causes functional failure. Always verify pin functions using Table 5-1 in the TLV2231IDBVRG4 datasheet - the pinout is optimized for layout (IN+/IN− separated by GND, OUT/IN− co-located), not generic compatibility.
