TL072 Op Amp

The TL072 is a widely used, dual-channel operational amplifier (op-amp) featuring high-voltage JFET inputs. Highly favored in audio and precision analog applications, it is notable for its very low total harmonic distortion (0.003%), high slew rate (20 V/μ s), and exceptionally low noise.

Key Technical Specifications
• Supply Voltage: ±2.25V to ±20V
• Input Impedance: Extremely high due to JFET input stages (10¹² Ω)
• Slew Rate: Typically 20 V/μ s
• Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): 0.003% (typ)
• Noise Voltage: 15 to 18 nV * sqrt{Hz}
• Pinout Configuration: Dual op-amp usually housed in an 8-pin package (e.g., PDIP, SOIC)

Typical Applications
Because of its low noise and high fidelity, the TL072 is frequently utilized in:
• Audio mixing consoles
• Guitar preamps and effects pedals
• Active filters and audio equalizers
• Precision instrumentation amplifiers
