TLV2361: Single or dual supply?

Part Number: TLV2361

Sorry for such a simple question but information regarding supply voltage of TLV2361 is not so clear (at least for me..).

In datasheet no support for single supply is mentioned, on the other hand the Spice model provided by TI implies that single supply of 3V or 5V is supported. In addition Mouser description mentions single supply.

Model in PSpice seems to work well for single supply (3.3V) but I can not verify the same behavior in a breadboard in real world.

So, the question is: Does TLV2361 actually supports single supply?

  • Hello Argiris,

    Welcome to the e2e forum. The TLV2361 does support a single 3.3V supply on the "VCC+" pin if the "VCC-" pin is connected to ground. It is very common in breadboarding to forget a ground connection or two. I have done this many times over the last few decades.

  • Hi Ron,

    thanks for your answer.

    TLV2361 is part of a current loop in my circuit so the Vcc- pin is some kind of "floating" ground, but nevertheless (Vcc+) - (Vcc-) always equals to 3.3V. So I would expect no problems -as simulation showed. 

    I have double checked the connections but I will do it once more, you never know with these breadboards...
