TL072CDE4 datasheet by Texas Instruments

TL072CDE4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum power supply voltage that I can use with the TL072CDE4?
  The TL072CDE4 can operate with a maximum power supply voltage of ±18V, but it's recommended to keep it below ±15V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• Can I use the TL072CDE4 in a single-supply configuration?
  Yes, the TL072CDE4 can be used in a single-supply configuration, but you'll need to ensure that the input voltage is within the common-mode input voltage range (VCC-2V to VCC+2V) and that the output voltage swing is within the output voltage range (VCC-1.5V to VCC-0.5V).
• What is the minimum output current that the TL072CDE4 can source or sink?
  The TL072CDE4 can source or sink up to 10mA of output current, but it's recommended to keep the output current below 5mA for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• Can I use the TL072CDE4 as a comparator?
  While the TL072CDE4 can be used as a comparator, it's not the best choice due to its limited slew rate and bandwidth. Texas Instruments recommends using a dedicated comparator like the LM339 or LM2901 for comparator applications.
• What is the thermal shutdown temperature of the TL072CDE4?
  The TL072CDE4 has a thermal shutdown temperature of around 150°C, which means that the device will shut down if the junction temperature exceeds this value to prevent damage.
