The TLV197-Q1, TLV2197-Q1 and TLV4197-Q1 (TLVx197-Q1) family of devices are part of a new
generation, of low-cost, 36-V, automotive-qualified, operational amplifiers. The TLVx197-Q1 family
uses a method of package-level trim for offset and offset temperature drift implemented during the
final steps of manufacturing after the plastic molding process. This method minimizes the influence
of inherent input transistor mismatch, as well as errors induced during package molding.Good dc precision and ac performance including rail-to-rail input/output, an optimized
cost structure, and AEC-Q100 grade 1 qualification, make this family an excellent choice for
low-side current-sensing and signal-conditioning applications in the automotive space.More unique features, such as a differential input-voltage range to the supply rail, a
high output current (±65 mA), a heavy capacitive load drive of up to 1 nF, and a high slew rate (20
V/µs), make these devices a robust, high-performance operational amplifier family for high-voltage
automotive applications.The TLVx197-Q1 family of op amps is available in standard packages and is specified from
–40°C to +125°C.
