DESCRIPTION
The PA95 is a high voltage, MOSFET operational amplifier designed as a low cost solution for driving continuous output currents up to 100mA and pulse currents up to 200mA into capacitive loads. The safe operating area (SOA) has no second breakdown limitations and can be observed for all load types 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 minimum board space allowing for high density circuit boards. The Power SIP is electrically isolated. Isolating thermal washers (TW13) are recommended to prevent arcing from pins to heatsink.

1. Although supply voltages can range up to ± 450V the input pins cannot swing over this range. The input pins must be at
least 30V from either supply rail but not more than 500V from either supply rail. See text for a more complete description
of the common mode voltage range.
2. Long term operation at the maximum junction temperature will result in reduced product life. Derate internal power dissipation to achieve high MTTF.

GENERAL
Please read Application Note 1 “General Operating Considerations” which covers stability, supplies, heat
sinking, mounting, current limit, SOA interpretation, and specification interpretation. Visit www.apexanalog.com for Apex Microtechnology’s complete Application Notes library, Technical Seminar Workbook, and
Evaluation Kits.
TYPICAL APPLICATION
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 PA95 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.

CURRENT LIMIT
For proper operation, the current limit resistor (RCL) must be connected as shown in the external connection diagram. The minimum value is 3.5 ohm, however for optimum reliability the resistor value should be set
as high as possible. The value is calculated as follows; with the maximum practical value of 150 ohms.
0.7V
R CL = ------------------I LIM A
COMMON MODE INPUT RANGE
Operational amplifiers are usually designed to have a common mode input voltage range that approximates the power supply voltage range. However, to keep the cost as low as possible and still meet the
requirements of most applications the common mode input voltage range of the PA95 is restricted. The input
10
PA95U Rev R
PA95
pins must always be a least 30V from either supply voltage but never more than 500V. This means that the
PA95 cannot be used in applications where the supply voltages are extremely unbalanced. For example, supply voltages of +800V and –100V would not be allowed in an application where the non-inverting pin is
grounded because in normal operation both input pins would be at 0V and the difference voltage between
the positive supply and the input pins would be 800V. In this kind of application, however, supply voltages
+500V and -100V does meet the input common mode voltage range requirements since the maximum difference voltage between the inputs pins and the supply voltage is 500V (the maximum allowed). The output has
no such restrictions on its voltage swing. The output can swing within 24V of either supply voltage regardless
of value so long as the total supply voltage does not exceed 900V.
INPUT PROTECTION
Although the PA95 can withstand differential input voltages up to ±20V, additional external protection is
recommended. In most applications 1N4148 or 1N914 signal diodes are sufficient (D1, D2 in Figure 14A). In
more demanding applications where low leakage or low capacitance are of concern 2N4416 or 2N54572N5459 JFETs connected as diodes will be required (Q1, Q2 in Figure 14B). In either case the input differential
voltage will be clamped to ±0.7V. This is sufficient overdrive to produce maximum power bandwidth. Note
that this protection does not automatically protect the amplifier from excessive common mode input voltages.
Figure 14: Overvoltage Protection
PA95U Rev R

PA95
POWER SUPPLY PROTECTION
Unidirectional zener diode transient suppressors are recommended as protection on the supply pins. The
zeners clamp transients to voltages within the power supply rating and also clamp power supply reversals to
ground. Whether the zeners are used or not, the system power supply should be evaluated for transient performance including power-on overshoot and power-off polarity reversal as well as line regulation.
Conditions which can cause open circuits or polarity reversals on either power supply rail should be avoided
or protected against. Reversals or opens on the negative supply rail is known to induce input stage failure.
Unidirectional transzorbs prevent this, and it is desirable that they be both electrically and physically as close
to the amplifier as possible.
STABILITY
The PA95 is stable at gains of 10 or more with a NPO (COG) compensation capacitor of 4.7pF. The compensation capacitor, Cc, in the external connections diagram must be rated at 1000V working voltage and
mounted closely to pins 4 and 6 to prevent spurious oscillation. A compensation capacitor less than 4.7pF is
not recommended.
EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Of great importance are the voltage rating and voltage coefficient of the gain setting feedback resistor.
Typical voltage ratings of low wattage resistors are 150 to 250V. Up to 500 V can appear across the feedback
resistor. High voltage rated resistors can be obtained. However a 1 MΩ feedback resistor composed of five
200k resistors in series will produce the proper voltage rating.
CAUTIONS
The operating voltages of the PA95 are potentially lethal. During circuit design develop a functioning circuit at the lowest possible voltages. Clip test leads should be used for “hands off” measurements while troubleshooting.
