VF-90 Voltage Follower

Product catalog summary
Description: The VF-90 linear piezoelectric amplifier module by DSM is designed for driving piezoelectric (capacitive) loads. It is compatible with National Instruments' CompactRIO and CompactDAQ chassis but can also be used independently. The module is powered by a 5.5V AC/DC adapter, which is included.
Electrical Connections: Connections for power, input signal, and output voltage are made via screw terminals. The module includes protections against over-current, over-temperature, short-circuit, and over/under voltage conditions.
Options: The VF-90 offers output voltage options ranging from -30V to +200V and -100V to +100V, with an operating voltage of 24VDC. Pricing for options is available upon contacting DSM.
Specifications and Features:
  • Over-current, over-temperature, and short-circuit protection
  • Protection against over/under voltage conditions
  • RoHS, FCC, and CE compliant
  • Compatible with National Instruments' CompactRIO format
  • 5.5V AC/DC adapter included
Application Examples: The VF-90 is suitable for driving piezo actuators/stages, microscopy devices, material testing equipment, and R&D/university projects.
Technical Specifications:
  • Output Voltage: -30 to +150 V
  • Input Voltage Signal: -0.75 to +3.75 V
  • Max Peak Current: 90 mAp
  • Dimensions: 3.5 x 0.9 x 4 inches (89 x 23 x 102 mm)
  • Operating Voltage: 5.5 VDC, 2A
  • Bandwidth: >5 kHz (-3dB)
  • Noise: <1 mVrms (0.5 Typical)
  • Gain: 40 +/-5%
  • Recommended Min. Capacitance: 200 nF
  • Connector: Screw Terminals
Important Notes: The output voltage range can exceed rated limits, and input signals should not exceed prescribed ranges to avoid damage. Under certain conditions, power capabilities may exceed heat dissipation limits of NI's CompactRIO and CompactDAQ specifications.

VF-90 Voltage Follower-1

VF-90-30150 Piezo Amplifier Description DSM's VF-90 linear piezoelectric amplifier module provides functionality for driving piezoelectric (capacitive) loads in an extremely compact form factor. The single channel module is designed into National Instruments' CompactRIO format for use in a CompactRIO and CompactDAQ chassis or for use outside of the chassis environment. The VF-90 is powered by a 5.5V AC/DC adapter (included). Electrical connections for power, input signal, and output voltage are made through the module's screw terminals. The VF-90 features overcurrent, over-temperature, and short-circuit protection as well as protection against over/under voltage conditions on the power line. • Over-current protecƟon • Over-temperature protecƟon • Short-circuit protecƟon • ProtecƟon against over/under voltage conditions on the power line • RoHS compliant • FCC compliant • CE Compliant • NaƟonal Instruments' CompactRIO format (communication and power is external). • 5.5V AC/DC adapter included Output Voltage (V): Input Voltage Signal (V): Max Peak Current (mAp): Dimensions (in): Dimensions (mm): Operating Voltage (VDC): Bandwidth (kHz): Noise (mVrms): Gain (V/V): Recommended Min.
