DESCRIPTION TYPICAL APPLICATION The amplifier design consists of dual monolithic input and output stages to achieve the desired input and output characteristics of the PA74 and PA76. The input stage utilizes a dual power op amp on a single chip monolithic that drives the output stages. The output stages are configured in a non inverting unity gain buffer configuration. The output stages of the amplifier are also compensated for stability. The PA74 and PA76 dual amplifiers are designed with both monolithic and hybrid technologies providing a cost effective solution for applications requiring multiple amplifiers per board or bridge mode configurations. Both amplifiers are internally compensated but are not recommended for use as unity gain followers. This dual hybrid circuit utilizes a beryllia (BeO) substrate, thick film resistors, ceramic capacitors and monolithic amplifiers to maximize reliability and power handling capability, minimize size and give top performance. Ultrasonically bonded aluminum wires provide reliable interconnections at all operating temperatures. The 8-Pin TO-3 package is hermetically sealed and electrically isolated. The use of compressible isolation washers voids the warranty. R1 and R2 set up amplifier A in a non-inverting gain of 2.8. Amp B is set up as a unity gain inverter driven from the output of amp A. Note that amp B inverts signals about the reference node, which is set at mid-supply (14V) by R5 and R6. When the command input is 5V, the output of amp A is 14V. Since this is equal to the reference node voltage, the output of amp B is also 14V, resulting in 0V across the motor. Inputs more positive than 5V result in motor current flow from left to right (see Figure 1). Inputs less positive than 5V drive the motor in the opposite direction. The amplifiers are especially well-suited for this application. The extended common mode range allows command inputs as low as 0V. Its superior output swing abilities let it drive within 2V of supply at an output current of 2A. This means that a command input that ranges from 0.714V to 9.286V will drive a 24V motor from full scale CCW to full scale CW at up to 2A. A single power op amp with an output swing capability of Vs -6 would require 30V supplies and would be required to swing 48V p-p at twice the speed to deliver an equivalent drive.

Unless otherwise noted, the following conditions apply: VS = 15V, TC = 25C. 3. +VS and -VS denote the positive and negative supply rail respectively. VSS denotes the total rail-to-rail supply voltage. 4. Rating applies when power dissipation is equal in the two amplifiers. CAUTION 2 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 850C to avoid generating toxic fumes.

PARALLEL CONFIGURATION CONSIDERATIONS LOSSES The PA74 and PA76 utilize a parallel configuration to achieve the desired current output requirements.The parallel configuration inherently creates internal losses due to circulating currents. The circulating currents generate power losses through the current sharing resistors when delivering current to the load. SUPPLY CURRENT STABILITY CONSIDERATIONS All monolithic power op amps use output stage topologies that present special stability problems. This is primarily due to non-complementary (both devices are NPN) output stages with a mismatch in gain and phase response for different polarities of output current. It is difficult for the opamp manufacturer to optimize compensation for all operating conditions. The parallel configuration used in the PA74 and PA76 also generates supply currents while high voltage sign waves are seen at the output. Listed below are the supply currents expected while running at a particular frequency and when VO 15Vpp, note that the outputs are not loaded. Frequency 100Hz 1KHz 5KHz 10KHz 15KHz TWO AMPLIFIERS LOADED DC, TC = 25C SATURATION OPERATION ONE AMPLIFIER LOADED The parallel configuration used in the PA74 and PA76 is sensitive to operation in the saturation region. The PA74 and PA76 may exhibit large peak currents; this is mainly due to thermal protection limitations. 1.0 DC, TC = 85C 0.1 1.0 10 100 SUPPLY TO OUTPUT DIFFERENTIAL VOLTAGE, VS - VO (V) SAFE OPERATING AREA (SOA) The SOA curves combine the effect of all limits for this power op amp. For a given application, the direction and magnitude of the output current should be calculated or measured and checked against the SOA curves. This is simple for resistive loads but more complex for reactive and EMF generating loads. THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS Thermal grease or a Apex Microtechnology TW03 thermal washer, RCS = .1 to .2C/W, is the only recommended interface for the PA74/76. Internal power dissipation increases directly with frequency therefore it is critical to sufficiently heat sink the PA74 and PA76. Even unloaded the PA74 and PA76 can dissipate up to 3 watts while running at higher frequencies. 4 INTERNAL POWER DISSIPATION, P (W) OUTPUT CURRENT FROM +VS or -VS, (A) SOA 10 Supply Current 18mA 20mA 32mA 50mA 75mA POWER DERATING 70 TWO AMPLIFIERS LOADED 60 50 40 ONE AMPLIFIER LOADED 30 20 10 0 0 25 50 75 100 CASE TEMPERATURE, TC (C) 125 PA74-76U PA74/76 * PA74A/76A NEED TECHNICAL HELP?
