Product Summary

In signal-conditioning applications utilizing a single power source, a reference voltage equal to one-half the supply voltage is required for termination of all analog signal grounds. Texas Instruments presents a precision virtual ground whose output voltage is always equal to one-half the input voltage, the TLE2426IDR rail splitter. The unique combination of a high-performance, micropower operational amplifier and a precisiontrimmed divider on a single silicon chip results in a precise VO/VI ratio of 0.5 while sinking and sourcing current. The TLE2426IDR provides a lowimpedance output with 20 mA of sink and source capability while drawing less than 280 mA of supply current over the full input range of 4 V to 40 V. A designer need not pay the price in terms of board space for a conventional signal ground consisting of resistors, capacitors, operational amplifiers, and voltage references. The performance and precision of the TLE2426IDR is available in an easy-to-use, space saving, 3-terminal LP package. For increased performance, the optional 8-pin packages provide a noise-reduction pin. With the addition of an external capacitor (CNR), peak-to-peak noise is reduced while line ripple rejection is improved.
