DESCRIPTION

The PA40 is a high voltage monolithic MOSFET operational
amplifi er achieving performance features previously found
only in hybrid designs while increasing reliability. Inputs are
protected from excessive common mode and differential
mode voltages. The saf e operating area (SOA) has no second
breakdown limitations. External compensation provides the
user fl exibility in choosing optimum gain and bandwidth
for the application.
The PA40 is packaged in Apex's 7 LEAD TO220 package.
The metal back of the package is tied to –Vs. The 15 mil
minimum spacing of the TO220 package is adequate to
stand-off the 350V rating of the PA40. The user must insure
that a minimum of 11 mils spacing is maintained between
pins for the circuit board artwork. If spacing is less than 11
mils, the voltage must be derated.

is used. If capacitiv e loading is at least 330pF at all times, the
recommended snubber network may be omitted.

OPERATING

CONSIDERATIONS

GENERAL

Please read Application Note 1 "General Operating
Considerations" which covers stability, supplies, heat sinking,
mounting, current limit, SOA interpretation, and specifi cation
interpretation. Visit www.apexmicrotech.com for design tools
that help automate tasks such as calculations for stability,
internal power dissipation, current limit; heat sink selection;
Apex’s complete Application Notes library; Technical Seminar
Workbook; and Evaluation Kits.

INPUT PROTECTION

The PA40 inputs are protected against common mode
voltages up the supply rails and differential voltages up to
±16 volts as well as static discharge. Differential voltages
exceeding 16 volts will be clipped by the protection circuitr y.
However, if more than a few milliamps of current is available
from the overload source, the protection circuitry could be
destroyed. The protection circuitry includes 300 ohm current
limiting resistors at each input, but this may be insuffi cient
for severe overloads. It may be necessary to add external
resistors to the application circuit where severe overload
conditions are expected. Limiting input current to 1mA will
prevent damage.

STABILITY

The PA40 has suffi cient phase margin when compensated
for unity gain to be stable with capacitive loads of at least
10 nF. However, the low pass circuit created by the sumpoint
(–in) capacitance and the feedback network may add phase
shift and cause instabilities. As a general rule, the sumpoint
load resistance (input and feedback resistors in parallel)
should be 1K ohm or less at low gain settings (up to 10).
Alternatively, use a bypass capacitor across the feedback
resistor. The time constant of the feedbac k resistor and bypass
capacitor combination should match the time constant of the
sumpoint resistance and sumpoint capacitance.

The PA40 is externally compensated and performance can
be tailored to the application. Use the graphs of small signal
gain and phase response as well as the graphs for slew rate
and power response as a guide. The compensation capacitor

must be rated at 350V working voltage. The compensation

SAFE OPERATING AREA (SOA)

The MOSFET output stage of this power operational
amplifi er has two distinct limitations:

1. The current handling capability of the die metallization.

2. The temperature of the output MOSFETs.

NOTE: The output stage is protected against transient

fl yback. However, f or protection against sustained, high energy
fl yback, external fast-recovery diodes should be used.

This data sheet has been carefully checked and is believed to be reliable, however, no responsibility is assumed for possible inaccuracies or omissions. All specifi cations are subject to change without notice.
