Product catalog summary
General Description: The PA107DP is a high-performance operational amplifier designed for driving various loads, operating in class A/B for optimal linearity. It uses feed-forward technology for wide bandwidth and excellent DC performance, restricted to inverting mode. External compensation is needed for high gain and wide bandwidth, and a heatsink is necessary to maintain the safe operating area (SOA).
Features: The amplifier provides a power bandwidth of 170 VP-P at 2 MHz, output voltage up to 180 Vp-p, a high slew rate of 2500 V/µs, a gain bandwidth product of 180 MHz, and high output current capabilities of ±1.5 A steady state and ±5 A peak.
Applications: It is suitable for piezo drive, CRT beam intensity control, ATE applications, and as a line driver.
Specifications: The amplifier operates with supply voltages from 40 to 200 V, with specific limits for auxiliary supplies. It can handle a steady-state output current of 1.5 A and a peak of 5 A. The internal power dissipation is 62.5 W, and it operates within a temperature range of -40 to 85 °C.
Performance Graphs: Graphs included show high and low voltage small signal responses, power supply rejection, and slew rate characteristics, illustrating performance across various conditions.
Pin Descriptions: The 12-pin SIP package includes inputs for inverting operational amplifier, supply for input circuits, ground, and high power output, among others.
General Considerations: Stability, power supplies, heat sinking, and current limit considerations are advised. The document warns against short circuiting the output due to lack of protection features.
Internal Power Dissipation and Heatsink Selection: Guidelines are provided for calculating internal dissipation and selecting appropriate heatsinks to maintain safe operating temperatures.
Reactive Loads: The amplifier is stable at a gain of 20 or above with inductive or capacitive loads, with specific considerations for power dissipation when driving capacitive loads.
Feedback Considerations: External compensation is necessary for gains less than 20, with specific methods recommended to ensure stability and minimize noise and offset.
Slew Rate and Full Power Bandwidth: The slew rate is measured from 25% to 75% of a 180VP-P square wave, with power bandwidth defined as the highest frequency for undistorted sine wave output.
Safe Operating Area (SOA): Limitations of the MOSFET output stage are outlined, including current handling and junction temperature, with recommendations for external protection against high energy flyback.
Typical Application: An example application for piezo drive is provided, illustrating the amplifier's integration into a circuit.
Technical Support: Contact information for technical support is provided, along with a disclaimer regarding the accuracy and use of the document's information.

3000 V/µs High Voltage Power Amplifier-1

Power Operational Amplifiers FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION The PA107DP is a state of the art wideband high power operational amplifier designed to drive resistive, capacitive or inductive loads. For optimum linearity the output stage is biased for class A/B operation. Feed forward technology is used to obtain wide bandwidth and excellent DC performance, but constricts use to inverting mode only. External compensation allows the user to obtain both high gain and wide bandwidth. Use of a heatsink is required to realize the SOA. ♦ Power Bandwidth 170 VP-P, 2 MHz ♦ Output Voltage up to 180 Vp-p ♦ High Slew Rate 2500 V/µs Minimum with A CL = 20 ♦ High Gain Bandwidth Product 180 MHz ♦ High Output Current ±1.5 A Steady State Within SOA ♦ High Peak Output Current ±5 A This hybrid integrated circuit uses thick film resistors, ceramic capacitors, and semiconductors to maximize reliability, minimize size, and give top performance. Ultrasonically bonded aluminum wires provide reliable interconnections at all operating temperatures. The 12 pin SIP package occupies only 2 square inches. The use of compressible insulation washers voids the warranty. ♦ Piezo Drive ♦ CRT Beam Intensity Control ♦ ATE Applications ♦ Line Driver EQUIVALENT SCHEMATIC +VAUX Copyright © Apex Microtechnology, Inc. 2012 (All Rights Reserved)

3000 V/µs High Voltage Power Amplifier-6

The PA107DP is stable at a gain of 20 or above when driving either inductive or capacitive loads. However an inductor is essentially a short circuit at DC, therefore there must be enough resistance in series to keep low frequency power within ratings. When driving a 1nF capacitive load with a 180 VP-P square wave, the current peak is 1 A. Driving the same capacitor with a 2.3 MHz sine wave, the power bandwidth frequency, results in 2.6 AP-P. The power dissipated in the amplifier while driving a purely capacitive load is given by the formula: Where: VPK = Peak Voltage VS = Supply Voltage XC =...

This is not the same as the absolute maximum internal power dissipation listed elsewhere in the specification since the quiescent power dissipation is significant compared to the total. 9.
