DESCRIPTION
The PA93 is a high voltage, low quiescent current MOSFET operational amplifier designed as a low cost
solution for driving continuous output currents up to 8A and pulse currents up to 14A. The safe operating
area (SOA) has no second breakdown limitations and can be observed for all type loads by choosing an appropriate current limiting resistor. The MOSFET output stage is biased AB for linear operation. External compensation provides flexibility in choosing bandwidth and slew rate for the application. Apex Microtechnology’s
Power SIP uses a minimum of board space allowing for high density circuit boards. The Power SIP is electrically isolated.

1. Long term operation at the maximum junction temperature will result in reduced product life. Derate internal power dissipation to achieve high MTTF.
CAUTION
The PA93 is constructed from MOSFET transistors. ESD handling procedures must be observed.
The substrate contains beryllia (BeO). Do not crush, machine, or subject to temperatures in
excess of 850°C to avoid generating toxic fumes.

SAFE OPERATING AREA (SOA)
The safe operating area curves define the maximum additional internal power dissipation the amplifier
can tolerate when it produces the necessary output to drive an external load.
The MOSFET output stage of this power operational amplifier has two distinct limitations:
1. The current handling capability of the MOSFET geometry and the wire bonds.
2. The junction temperature of the output MOSFETs.
Note: The output stage is protected against transient flyback. However, for protection against sustained,
high energy flyback, external fast-recovery diodes should be used.

TYPICAL APPLICATION
LOW POWER, PIEZOELECTRIC POSITIONING
Piezo positioning may be applied to the focusing of segmented mirror systems. The composite mirror
may be composed of hundreds of elements, each requiring focusing under computer control. In such complex systems the PA93 reduces the costs of power supplies and cooling with its advantages of low cost and
low quiescent power consumption while increasing circuit density with the SIP package.
