Case tied to pin 5. Allow no current in case. Bypassing of supplies
is required. Package is Apex MO–127 (STD). See Outline
Dimensions/Packages in Apex data book.
As +PWM goes more positive, out duty cycle increases.

DESCRIPTION
The SA18 is a pulse width modulation amplifier that can
supply 10KW to the load. An internal oscillator requires no
external components. The clock input stage divides the oscillator frequency by two, which provides the switching frequency of 22.5 kHz. External oscillators may also be used to
lower the switching frequency or to synchronize multiple
amplifiers. A shutdown input turns off both drivers of the half
bridge output. A high side current limit protects the amplifier
from shorts to ground in addition to load shorts. The output
IGBTs are protected from thermal overloads by directly sensing the temperature of the die. The 12-pin hermetic MO-127
power package occupies only 3 square inches of board space.

NOTES: 1. Each of the two output transistors can dissipate 125W, but only one is on at any time.
2. Unless otherwise noted: TC = 25°C, VS, VCC at typical specification.
3. Long term operation at the maximum junction temperature will result in reduced product life. Derate internal power
dissipation to achieve high MTTF. For guidance, refer to the heatsink data sheet.
4. Guaranteed but not tested.
CAUTION
The SA18 is constructed from static sensitive components. 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.
