PA98

PATENTED

DESCRIPTION

The PA98 is a high voltage, high power bandwidth MOSFET
operational amplifier designed for output currents up to 200mA.
Output voltages can swing up to ±215V with a dual supply and
up to +440 volts with a single supply. The safe operating area
(SOA) has no second breakdown limitations and can be
observed with all types of loads by choosing an appropriate
current limiting resistor. High accuracy is achieved with a
cascode input circuit configuration. All internal biasing is
referenced to a bootstrapped zener-MOSFET current source.
As a result, the PA98 features an unprecedented supply range
and excellent supply rejection. The MOSFET output stage is
biased on for linear operation. External compensation pro­vides user flexibility.

This hybrid circuit utilizes thick film (cermet) resistors, ce­ramic capacitors and silicon semiconductor chips to maximize
reliability, minimize size and give top performance. Ultrasoni­cally bonded aluminum wires provide reliable interconnec­tions at all operating temperatures.

DYNAMIC FOCUSING

Dynamic focusing is the active correction of focusing volt­age as a beam traverses the face of a CRT. This is necessary
in high resolution flat face monitors since the distance be­tween cathode and screen varies as the beam moves from the
center of the screen to the edges. PA98 lends itself well to this
function since it can be connected as a summing amplifier with
inputs from the nominal focus potential and the dynamic
correction. The nominal might be derived from a potentiom­eter, or perhaps automatic focusing circuitry might be used to

S

generate this potential. The dynamic correction is generated
from the sweep voltages by calculating the distance of the

S

beam from the center of the display.

NOTES: 1. Unless otherwise noted: TC = 25°C, compensation = CC = 68pF, RC = 100Ω. DC input specifications are ± value given. Power

supply voltage is typical rating.

2. Long term operation at the maximum junction temperature will result in reduced product life. Derate internal power dissipation
to achieve high MTTF. Ratings apply only to output transistors. An additional 10W may be dissipated due to quiescent power.

3. Doubles for every 10°C of temperature increase.

4. +VS and –VS denote the positive and negative power supply rail respectively.

5. Rating applies if the output current alternates between both output transistors at a rate faster than 60Hz.

6. Derate max supply rating .625 V/°C below 25°C case. No derating needed above 25°C case.

CAUTION

The PA98 is constructed from MOSFET transistors. ESD handling procedures must be observed.
The internal substrate contains beryllia (BeO). Do not break the seal. If accidentally broken, do not crush, machine, or

subject to temperatures in excess of 850°C to avoid generating toxic fumes.
