Power supply rail

Encyclopedia : P : PO : POW : Power supply rail

All op amps have two power pins. In most cases, they are labeled VCC+ and VCC-, but sometimes they are labeled VCC and GND. This is an attempt on the part of the data sheet author to categorize the part as a split-supply or single-supply part. These power levels are called as Power supply rails.
