•
•
•
•
•
•
The TLV379 family of single, dual, and quad
operational amplifiers represents a cost-optimized
generation of low-voltage and micropower amplifiers.
Operating on a supply voltage as low as 1.8 V
(±0.9 V) and consuming extremely low quiescent
current of 4 µA per channel, these amplifiers are wellsuited for power-sensitive applications. In addition,
the rail-to-rail input and output capability allows the
TLV379 family to be used in virtually any singlesupply application.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended
Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Input pins are diode-clamped to the power-supply rails. Input signals that can swing more than 0.5 V beyond the supply rails must be
current-limited to 10 mA or less.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Operating Voltage
The TLV379 series is fully specified and tested from 1.8 V to 5.5 V (±0.9 V to ±2.75 V). Parameters that vary with
supply voltage are illustrated in the Typical Characteristics section.
8.3.2 Rail-to-Rail Input
The input common-mode voltage range of the TLV379 family typically extends 100 mV beyond each supply rail.
This rail-to-rail input is achieved using a complementary input stage. CMRR is specified from the negative rail to
1 V below the positive rail. Between (V+) – 1 V and (V+) + 0.1 V, the amplifier operates with higher offset voltage
because of the transition region of the input stage. See the typical characteristic graph, Offset Voltage vs
Common-Mode Voltage vs Temperature (Figure 7).

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.3 Rail-to-Rail Output
Designed as a micropower, low-noise operational amplifier, the TLV379 delivers a robust output drive capability.
A class AB output stage with common-source transistors is used to achieve full rail-to-rail output swing capability.
For resistive loads up to 25 kΩ, the output typically swings to within 5 mV of either supply rail, regardless of the
power-supply voltage applied.
8.3.4 Capacitive Load and Stability
Follower configurations with load capacitance in excess of 30 pF can produce extra overshoot (see the typical
characteristic graph, Small-Signal Overshoot vs Capacitive Load, Figure 11) and ringing in the output signal.
Increasing the gain enhances the ability of the amplifier to drive greater capacitive loads. In unity-gain
configurations, capacitive load drive can be improved by inserting a small (10 Ω to 20 Ω) resistor, RS, in series
with the output as shown in Figure 14. This resistor significantly reduces ringing and maintains direct current (dc)
performance for purely capacitive loads. However, if a resistive load is in parallel with the capacitive load, a
voltage divider is created, introducing a dc error at the output and slightly reducing the output swing. The error
introduced is proportional to the ratio of RS / RL and is generally negligible.

In unity-gain inverter configuration, phase margin can be reduced by the reaction between the capacitance at the
operational amplifier (op amp) input and the gain-setting resistors. Best performance is achieved by using
smaller-value resistors. However, when large-value resistors cannot be avoided, a small (4 pF to 6 pF) capacitor
(CFB) can be inserted in the feedback, as shown in Figure 15. This configuration significantly reduces overshoot
by compensating the effect of capacitance (CIN) that includes the amplifier input capacitance (3 pF) and printed
circuit board (PCB) parasitic capacitance.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
When designing for ultra-low power, choose system components carefully. To minimize current consumption,
select large-value resistors. Any resistors can react with stray capacitance in the circuit and the input capacitance
of the operational amplifier. These parasitic RC combinations can affect the stability of the overall system. Use of
a feedback capacitor assures stability and limits overshoot or gain peaking.
9.2 Typical Application
A typical application for an operational amplifier is an inverting amplifier, as shown in Figure 16. An inverting
amplifier takes a positive voltage on the input and outputs a signal inverted to the input, making a negative
voltage of the same magnitude. In the same manner, the amplifier also makes negative input voltages positive on
the output. In addition, amplification can be added by selecting the input resistor RI and the feedback resistor RF.

9.2.1 Design Requirements
The supply voltage must be chosen to be larger than the input voltage range and the desired output range. The
limits of the input common-mode range (VCM) and the output voltage swing to the rails (VO) must also be
considered. For instance, this application scales a signal of ±0.5 V (1 V) to ±1.8 V (3.6 V). Setting the supply at
±2.5 V is sufficient to accommodate this application.

SBOS785B – APRIL 2016 – REVISED AUGUST 2017
Typical Application (continued)
When the desired gain is determined, choose a value for RI or RF. Choosing a value in the kilohm range is
desirable for general-purpose applications because the amplifier circuit uses currents in the milliamp range. This
milliamp current range ensures the device does not draw too much current. The trade-off is that very large
resistors (100s of kilohms) draw the smallest current but generate the highest noise. Very small resistors (100s of
ohms) generate low noise but draw high current. This example uses 10 kΩ for RI, meaning 36 kΩ is used for RF.
These values are determined by Equation 3:

System Examples (continued)
Figure 19 shows the TLV2379 used as a window comparator. The threshold limits are set by VH and VL, with VH
> VL. When VIN < VH, the output of A1 is low. When VIN > VL, the output of A2 is low. Therefore, both op amp
outputs are at 0 V as long as VIN is between VH and VL. This architecture results in no current flowing through
either diode, Q1 in cutoff, with the base voltage at 0 V, and VOUT forced high.
If VIN falls below VL, the output of A2 is high, current flows through D2, and VOUT is low. Likewise, if VIN rises
above VH, the output of A1 is high, current flows through D1, and VOUT is low.
The window comparator threshold voltages are set using Equation 4 and Equation 5.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The TLV379 family is specified for operation from 1.8 V to 5.5 V (±0.9 V to ±2.75 V); many specifications apply
from –40°C to +125°C. The Typical Characteristics section presents parameters that can exhibit significant
variance with regard to operating voltage or temperature.
CAUTION
Supply voltages larger than 7 V can permanently damage the device (see the Absolute
Maximum Ratings table).
Place 0.1-μF bypass capacitors close to the power-supply pins to reduce errors coupling in from noisy or highimpedance power supplies. For more detailed information on bypass capacitor placement; see the Layout
Guidelines section.
10.1 Input and ESD Protection
The TLV379 family incorporates internal electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuits on all pins. In the case
of input and output pins, this protection primarily consists of current-steering diodes connected between the input
and power-supply pins. These ESD protection diodes also provide in-circuit, input overdrive protection, as long
as the current is limited to 10 mA as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Figure 20 shows how a
series input resistor can be added to the driven input to limit the input current. The added resistor contributes
thermal noise at the amplifier input that must be kept to a minimum in noise-sensitive applications.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
For best operational performance of the device, use good printed circuit board (PCB) layout practices, including:
• Noise can propagate into analog circuitry through the power pins of the circuit as a whole and the
operational amplifier. Use bypass capacitors to reduce the coupled noise by providing low-impedance
power sources local to the analog circuitry.
– Connect low-ESR, 0.1-µF ceramic bypass capacitors between each supply pin and ground, placed as
close as possible to the device. A single bypass capacitor from V+ to ground is applicable for singlesupply applications.
• Separate grounding for analog and digital portions of the circuitry is one of the simplest and most
effective methods of noise suppression. One or more layers on multilayer PCBs are usually devoted to
ground planes. A ground plane helps distribute heat and reduces EMI noise pickup. Make sure to
physically separate digital and analog grounds, paying attention to the flow of the ground current. For
more detailed information, see Circuit Board Layout Techniques, SLOA089.
• To reduce parasitic coupling, run the input traces as far away from the supply or output traces as
possible. If these traces cannot be kept separate, crossing the sensitive trace perpendicularly is much
better than crossing in parallel with the noisy trace.
• Place the external components as close as possible to the device. Keep RF and RG close to the inverting
input in order to minimize parasitic capacitance, as shown in Figure 21.
• Keep the length of input traces as short as possible. Always remember that the input traces are the most
sensitive part of the circuit.
• Consider a driven, low-impedance guard ring around the critical traces. A guard ring can significantly
reduce leakage currents from nearby traces that are at different potentials.
