The TL072CP is an integrated circuit (IC) that belongs to the family of JFET input operational amplifiers. It is a low-noise, high-gain, general-purpose amplifier that is commonly used in audio applications, such as mixing consoles, amplifiers, and equalizers.

The TL072CP has two operational amplifiers in a single package, with each amplifier having a differential input stage consisting of JFETs and a bipolar transistor. It has a high input impedance of 10^12 ohms, low input bias current, and low offset voltage, making it ideal for applications where low noise and high accuracy are essential. It can operate over a wide range of supply voltages, typically from ±5V to ±18V.

The TL072CP is available in an 8-pin DIP (dual in-line package) and can operate over a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. It is a widely used and popular operational amplifier due to its excellent performance and versatility in a variety of applications.
