STMicroelectronics TL084BC - Quad Low-Noise JFET-Input General-Purpose Operational Amplifier

The TL084BC is a high-speed quad operational amplifier from STMicroelectronics that combines the advantages of low noise JFET (Junction Field Effect Transistor) inputs with a high slew rate and bandwidth which is beneficial for fast signal amplification in a wide range of applications. This integrated circuit is particularly suited for applications in high-fidelity and audio pre-amplifier circuits.

Each of the four amplifiers exhibits a low input bias and offset currents coupled with a high input impedance, making the TL084BC an excellent option for applications that require precise signal handling and processing. The low harmonic distortion and low noise make it an ideal choice for audio preamplification, active filters, and industrial measurement equipment.

Key features of the TL084BC include:

• Wide common-mode and differential voltage range
• Low input bias and offset current
• Output short-circuit protection
• High input impedance JFET input stage
• Internal frequency compensation
• Latch-up free operation
• High slew rate: 16V/μs typically
• Low noise: 15nV/√Hz typically at f = 1kHz

The TL084BC operates over a wide range of power supply voltages, including the standard ±15V for analog circuits, and it also features a low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-operated devices. The device's packaging is designed for optimal reliability and thermal efficiency.

STMicroelectronics provides this operational amplifier in various packages, including DIP (Dual In-line Package) and SO (Small Outline) packages, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) layouts and design requirements.

Overall, the TL084BC from STMicroelectronics offers a blend of performance, versatility, and reliability, making it a top choice for designers who require a general-purpose operational amplifier that can handle demanding signal processing tasks with ease.
