TL081ACD datasheet by STMicroelectronics

TL081ACD Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum power supply voltage that can be applied to the TL081ACD?
  The maximum power supply voltage for the TL081ACD is ±18V. Exceeding this voltage can cause damage to the device.
• Can I use the TL081ACD in a single-supply configuration?
  Yes, the TL081ACD can be used in a single-supply configuration, but the input common-mode voltage range is limited to within 3V of the positive supply rail. Additionally, the output voltage swing will be reduced.
• How do I ensure stability when using the TL081ACD in a feedback loop?
  To ensure stability, it's essential to follow proper PCB layout practices, use a low-ESR capacitor for decoupling, and avoid capacitive loads. Additionally, the datasheet provides guidance on selecting the correct compensation capacitor values for different gain configurations.
• What is the maximum output current that the TL081ACD can deliver?
  The TL081ACD can deliver up to 40mA of output current. However, the output current should be limited to 20mA for reliable operation and to prevent overheating.
• Can I use the TL081ACD in a high-temperature environment?
  The TL081ACD is rated for operation up to 125°C. However, the device's performance and reliability may degrade at high temperatures. It's essential to follow the recommended operating conditions and derate the device accordingly.
