Product details
Overview
TLV27L2CDGKR from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel micropower rail-to-rail output operational amplifier designed for ultra-low-power signal conditioning in battery-operated systems. It delivers 160 kHz gain-bandwidth, 0.06 V/μs slew rate, 7 μA per channel quiescent current, and operates from 2.7 V to 16 V supply. It is used in portable medical sensors and low-power smoke detectors where precision output swing near supply rails is critical.
For engineers reviewing the TLV27L2CDGKR datasheet, TLV27L2CDGKR pinout, TLV27L2CDGKR application, or TLV27L2CDGKR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) package, −40°C to 125°C industrial temperature range, rail-to-rail output swing within 50 mV of rails at ±5 V, input bias current of 1 pA, and compatibility with single-supply sensor front-ends requiring minimal power overhead.
Technical Context
The TLV27L2CDGKR employs BiMOS input stage architecture enabling 1 pA input bias current and rail-to-rail output swing via complementary MOS output transistors. Its 160 kHz unity-gain bandwidth is achieved with only 7 μA per channel supply current, making it suitable for continuous-sensing applications where power budget is constrained below 15 μA total for both channels.
It supports single-supply operation from 2.7 V (e.g., two alkaline cells) up to 16 V, with input common-mode range extending from −0.2 V to VS+1.2 V and output swing within 50 mV of each rail under ±5 V conditions. The device is specified across the full industrial temperature range and exhibits 89 nV/√Hz input voltage noise at 1 kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 16 V - enables direct operation from two AA/AAA cells (3 V) or 12-V industrial rails without regulation. |
| Quiescent Current (per channel) | 7 μA typical - allows dual-channel operation under 15 μA, ideal for multi-year battery life in wireless sensor nodes. |
| Gain-Bandwidth Product | 160 kHz - sufficient for DC–100 Hz biosignal amplification (ECG, pulse oximetry) with stable unity-gain configuration. |
| Input Bias Current | 1 pA - minimizes error in high-impedance pH, ion-selective, or photodiode transimpedance front-ends. |
| Output Swing (vs. Rail) | 50 mV at ±5 V - delivers full dynamic range when interfacing with 10-bit ADCs referenced to same supply. |
| Input Noise Voltage | 89 nV/√Hz at 1 kHz - supports low-noise amplification of microvolt-level signals from thermopiles or strain gauges. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to 125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial control, and outdoor environmental monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
The TLV27L2CDGKR is housed in an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) package measuring 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 1.0 mm, optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining SOIC-compatible pin spacing and thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT1) | Channel 1 output | Delivers rail-to-rail voltage swing; drives ADC input or filter network with <50 mV headroom at ±5 V. |
| 2 (IN−1) | Inverting input, Channel 1 | High-impedance node (1 pA bias); connects to feedback network or sensor bridge leg. |
| 3 (IN+1) | Non-inverting input, Channel 1 | Accepts low-level sensor signal; common-mode range extends to −0.2 V and VS+1.2 V. |
| 4 (GND) | Analog ground reference | Single ground return for both channels; requires dedicated low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane. |
| 5 (IN+2) | Non-inverting input, Channel 2 | Independent input for second sensor path; electrically isolated from Channel 1 except shared supply and ground. |
| 6 (IN−2) | Inverting input, Channel 2 | Supports differential or single-ended configurations; matched offset and bias characteristics to Channel 1. |
| 7 (OUT2) | Channel 2 output | Identical rail-to-rail performance to OUT1; enables dual-sensor readout or signal buffering + filtering. |
| 8 (VDD) | Positive supply rail | Accepts 2.7–16 V; requires local 0.1-μF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed ≤2 mm from pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output swing | Enables full utilization of ADC input range without level-shifting circuitry, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| 1 pA input bias current | Permits use with >100 MΩ source impedances (e.g., glass pH electrodes) without significant offset drift. |
| 7 μA per channel supply current | Allows continuous dual-channel operation on coin-cell batteries (e.g., CR2032) for >5 years in sleep-wake sensing cycles. |
| 160 kHz bandwidth at 7 μA | Provides adequate small-signal response for DC–100 Hz physiological signals while maintaining ultralow power. |
| −40°C to 125°C operating range | Eliminates need for external thermal compensation in automotive cabin modules or industrial motor controllers. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Power Monitoring Circuits |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV2382IDGKR | Higher 10 μA IQ, 160 kHz GBW, 90 nV/√Hz noise, same VSSOP-8 package and −40°C to 125°C rating. | Better PSRR (82 dB vs. 74 dB) and CMRR (86 dB vs. 71 dB), but higher noise limits use in ultra-low-level sensor apps. | Select when improved rejection of supply/CM interference outweighs marginal noise penalty and 3 μA extra per channel. |
| TLC2252CDR | 62.5 μA IQ, 200 kHz GBW, 19 nV/√Hz noise, SOIC-8 only, 0°C to 70°C commercial temp range. | Lower noise and higher speed suit precision industrial analog, but 9× higher supply current precludes battery use. | Choose for mains-powered test equipment needing lower noise and wider bandwidth, not for energy-constrained designs. |
Compared with TLV2382IDGKR and TLC2252CDR, the TLV27L2CDGKR uniquely balances sub-10 μA power, rail-to-rail output, and 1 pA bias for long-life portable sensing-neither alternative matches this combination of ultra-low IQ and high-impedance interface capability.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for TLV27L2CDGKR?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for TLV27L2CDGKR is 16.5 V, but the recommended operating range is 2.7 V to 16 V. Operation above 16 V risks permanent damage. At 16 V, the device maintains rail-to-rail output swing and 7 μA per channel quiescent current, making it suitable for 12-V industrial rails with margin.
Does TLV27L2CDGKR support true rail-to-rail input?
No, TLV27L2CDGKR features rail-to-rail *output* only. Its input common-mode voltage range is −0.2 V to VS+1.2 V, which exceeds the supply rails but does not reach full rail-to-rail input. For example, at VS = 5 V, inputs operate from −0.2 V to +6.2 V - sufficient for most single-supply sensor interfaces but not for direct 0–5 V input without level shift.
What is the input offset voltage specification for TLV27L2CDGKR?
The TLV27L2CDGKR has a maximum input offset voltage of 7 mV across the full −40°C to 125°C temperature range, with a typical value of 5 mV at 25°C. This is confirmed in the "electrical characteristics" table under "Input offset voltage" with test condition VIC = VS/2 and VO = VS/2. Offset drift is 1.1 μV/°C typical.
Can TLV27L2CDGKR drive capacitive loads directly?
TLV27L2CDGKR is stable with up to 50 pF capacitive load when configured for unity gain, as verified by phase margin measurements (62° at 25°C). Driving >50 pF requires isolation resistor (e.g., 10–100 Ω) between output and load to prevent peaking or oscillation - critical for ADC input filtering or cable-driven outputs.
Is TLV27L2CDGKR pin-compatible with other VSSOP-8 op-amps?
TLV27L2CDGKR uses standard VSSOP-8 pinout (1–8: OUT1, IN−1, IN+1, GND, IN+2, IN−2, OUT2, VDD), matching industry conventions for dual op-amps. However, it is not a drop-in replacement for all VSSOP-8 dual op-amps due to differences in bias current, noise, and supply current - verify electrical compatibility before substitution.
