TWO FLAGS: Current Limit and Temperature
Warning
The OPA569 is a low-cost, high-current, operational amplifier
designed for driving a wide variety of loads while operating on
low-voltage supplies. It operates from either single or dual
supplies for design flexibility and has rail-to-rail swing on the
input and output. Typical output swing is within 200mV of the
supply rails, with output current of 2A. Output swing closer to
the rails is achievable with lighter loads.
● LOW SUPPLY VOLTAGE OPERATION: 2.7V to 5.5V
● SHUTDOWN FUNCTION WITH OUTPUT DISABLE
● SMALL POWER PACKAGE: SO-20 PowerPAD™
The OPA569 is unity gain stable, has low dc errors, is easy
to use, and free from the phase inversion problems found in
some power amplifiers. High performance is maintained at
voltage swings near the output rails.
APPLICATIONS
The OPA569 provides an accurate user-selected current
limit that is set with an external resistor, or digitally adjusted
via a Digital-to-Analog Converter.

The IMONITOR pin provides a 1:475 bidirectional copy of the
output current. This eliminates the need for a series current
shunt resistor, allowing more voltage to be applied to the
load. This pin can be used for simple monitoring, or feedback
control to establish constant output current.
Packaged in the Texas Instruments PowerPAD™ package,
it is small and easy to heat sink. The OPA569 is specified for
operation over the extended industrial temperature range,
–40°C to +85°C.

The OPA569 output can be independently disabled using the
Enable pin, saving power and protecting the load.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas
Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled
with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits
may be more susceptible to damage because very small
parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its
published specifications.
NOTE: (1) Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage.
Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may degrade device reliability. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those specified is
not implied. (2) Input terminals are diode-clamped to the power-supply rails.
Input signals that can swing more than 0.5V beyond the supply rails should
be current limited to 10mA or less. (3) Short-circuit to ground.

NOTES: (1) See typical characteristic “Maximum Output Voltage vs Frequency”. (2) See the typical characteristic “Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise vs Frequency”.
(3) Swing to the rail is measured in final test. Under those conditions, the AOL is derived from characterization. (4) See Safe Operating Area (SOA) plot. (5) See typical
characteristic “Overshoot vs Load Capacitance”. (6) External current limit setting resistor is required. See Figure 1. (7) ILIMIT is the value of the desired current limit
and is equal to 9800 (ISET), where ISET is the current through the Current Limit Set pin (pin 3). Errors from this parameter can be calibrated out—see Applications
Information section. (8) VSET is a voltage reference that equals the difference between the voltage of the Current Limit Set pin and V–, and is referenced to the negative
rail. Errors from this parameter can be calibrated out—see Applications Information section. (9) % Tolerance = [(IOUT/475) – IMONITOR] • 100/IMONITOR.

operation, and cannot be omitted.

The OPA569 provides over-current protection to the load
through its accurate, user-adjustable current limit (pin 3). The
current limit value, ILIMIT, can be set from 0.2A to 2.2A by
controlling the current through the Current Limit Set pin. The
current limit, ILIMIT, will be 9800 ISET; where ISET is the current
through the Current Limit Set pin. Setting the current limit
requires no special power resistors. The output current does
not flow through this pin.

Current Limit Accuracy
CURRENT MONITOR
Internally separate circuits monitor the positive and negative
current limits. Each circuit output is compared to a single
internal reference that is set by the user with an external
resistor or a resistor/voltage source combination. The OPA569
employs a patented circuit technique to achieve an accurate
and stable current limit throughout the full output range. The
initial accuracy of the current limit is typically within 3%;
however, due to internal matching limitations, the error can
be as much as 15%. The variation of the current limit with
factors such as output current level, output voltage and
temperature is shown in the Typical Characteristics section.
The OPA569 features an accurate output current monitor
(IMONITOR) without requiring the use of series resistance with
the load. This increases efficiency significantly and provides
better overall swing-to-supply performance.
When the accuracy of one current limit (sourcing or sinking)
is more important than the other, it is possible to set its
accuracy to better than 1% by adjusting the external resistor
or the applied voltage. The accuracy of the other current limit
will still be affected by internal matching.
Some restrictions apply when using the current monitor
function. When the main amplifier is sourcing current, the
current monitor circuit must be sourcing current. Likewise,
when the main amplifier is sinking current, the current monitor circuit must also be sinking current. Additionally, the
swing on the IMONITOR pin is smaller than the output swing.
When the amplifier is sourcing current, the voltage of the
Current Monitor pin must be at least two hundred millivolts
less than the output voltage of the amplifier. Conversely,
when the amplifier is sinking current, the voltage of the
Current Monitor pin must be at least two hundred millivolts
greater than the output voltage of the amplifier. Resistive
loads are able to meet these restrictions. Other types of
loads may cause invalid current monitor values.
Current Limit Flag Pin
The OPA569 features a Current Limit Flag pin (pin 4) that
can be monitored to determine when the part is in current
limit. The output signal of the current limit flag pin is compatible to standard logic in single supply applications. The
output signal is a CMOS logic gate that switches from V+ to
V– to indicate that the amplifier is in current limit. This flag
output pin can source and sink up to 25µA. Additional
parasitic capacitance between pins 3 and 4 can cause
instability at the edge of the current limit. Avoid routing these
traces in parallel close to each other.
Quiescent Current Dependence on the
Current Limit Setting
The OPA569 is a low power amplifier, with a typical 3.4mA
quiescent current (with the current limit configured for 200mA).
The quiescent current varies with on the current limit setting—it increases 0.5mA for each additional 200mA increase in the current limit, as shown in Figure 3.
An internal circuit creates a 1:475 copy of the output current.
This copy of the output current can be monitored independently or it can be used in applications such as current
control drive, setting non-symmetric positive and negative
current limits or paralleling two or more devices for increased
output current drive. When not being used, the Current
Monitor pin may be left floating.
A simple way to monitor the load current and meet these
requirements is to connect a resistor (with resistance less
than 400 • RL) from the IMONITOR pin to the same potential to
which the other side of the load is connected. Another
method is to use a transimpedance amplifier, as shown in
Figure 4. This circuit must assure that the potential of the
IMONITOR pin remains in the valid voltage range by connecting
it to the same potential to which the load is connected—most
likely ground for dual supply or mid-supply for single-supply
applications.

The accuracy of the current copy is reduced with small output
currents. An internal circuit monitors the direction of the
output current and enables the positive or the negative
current monitoring circuitry accordingly. There is an approximate 20µs delay in the change of current direction. The
switching point is near quiescent conditions and may cause
current monitor inaccuracy with small output currents.

ENABLE PIN—OUTPUT DISABLE
The Enable pin can disable the OPA569 within microseconds. When disabled, the amplifier draws less than 10µA and
its output enters a high-impedance state that allows multiplexing. It is important to note that when the amplifier is
disabled, the Thermal Flag pin circuitry continues to operate.
This feature allows use of the Thermal Flag pin output to
implement thermal protection strategies. For more details,
please see the section on thermal protection.
The OPA569 Enable pin has an internal pull-up circuit, so it
does not have to be connected to the positive supply for
normal operation. To disable the amplifier, the Enable pin
must be connected to no more than (V–) + 0.8V. To enable
the amplifier, either allow the Enable pin to float or connect
it to at least (V–) + 2.5V.
The Enable pin is referenced to the negative supply (V–).
Therefore, shutdown operation is slightly different in singlesupply and dual-supply applications.
In single-supply operation, V– typically equals common
ground, thus the enable/disable logic signal and the OPA569
Enable pin are referenced to the same potential. In this
configuration, the logic level and the OPA569 Enable pin can
simply be tied together. Disable occurs for voltage levels of
less than 0.8V. The OPA569 is enabled at logic levels
greater than 2.5V.
In dual-supply operation, the logic level is referenced to a
logic ground. However, the OPA569 Enable pin is still referenced to V–. To disable the OPA569, the voltage level of the
logic signal needs to be level-shifted. This can be done using
an optocoupler, as shown in Figure 5.
Examples of output behavior during disabled and enabled
conditions with various load impedances are shown in the
typical characteristics section. Please note that this behavior
is a function of board layout, load impedances and bypass
strategies. For sensitive loads, the use of a low-pass filter or
other protection strategy is recommended.

ENSURING MICROCONTROLLER COMPATIBILITY
Not all microcontrollers output the same logic state after
power-up or reset. 8051-type microcontrollers, for example,
output logic HIGH levels on their ports while other models
power up with logic LOW levels after reset.
In configuration (a) shown in Figure 5, the enable/disable
signal is applied on the cathode side of the photodiode within
the optocoupler. A logic HIGH level causes the OPA569 to
be enabled, and a logic LOW level disables the OPA569. In
configuration (b) of Figure 5, with the logic signal applied on
the anode side, a high level disables the OPA569 and a low
level enables the op amp.
RAIL TO RAIL OUTPUT RANGE
The OPA569 has a class AB output stage with common
source transistors that are used to achieve rail-to-rail output
swing. It was designed to be able to swing closer to the rail
than other existing linear amplifiers, even with high output
current levels. A quick way to estimate the output swing with
various output current requirements is by using the equation:
VSWING [typical] = 0.1 • IO
Plots of the Output Swing vs Output Current, Supply Voltage,
and Temperature are provided in the typical characteristics
section.
OPA569
www.ti.com
SBOS264
RAIL TO RAIL INPUT RANGE
The input common-mode voltage range of the OPA569
extends 100mV beyond the supply rails. This is achieved by
a complementary input stage with an N-channel input differential pair in parallel with a P-channel differential pair. The
N-channel input pair is active for input voltages close to the
positive rail while the P-channel input pair is active for input
voltages close to the negative rail. The transition point is
typically at (V+) – 1.3V, and there is a small transition region
around the switching point where both transistors are on. It
is important to note that the two input pairs can have offsets
of different signs and magnitudes. Therefore, as the transition point is crossed, the offset of the amplifier changes. This
offset shift accounts for the reduced common-mode rejection
ratio over the full input common-mode range.
OUTPUT PROTECTION
Reactive and EMF-generating loads can return load current
to the amplifier, causing the output voltage to exceed the
power-supply voltage. This damaging condition can be
avoided with clamp diodes from the output terminal to the
power supplies, as shown in Figure 6. Schottky rectifier
diodes with a 3A or greater continuous rating are recommended.
THERMAL FLAG
The OPA569 has thermal sensing circuitry that provides a
warning signal when the die temperature exceeds safe limits.
Unless the Thermal Flag is connected to the Enable pin,
when this flag is triggered, the part continues to operate even
though the junction temperature exceeds 150°C. This allows
maximum usable operation in very harsh conditions but
degrades reliability. The Thermal Flag pin can be used to
provide for orderly system shutdown before failure occurs. It
can be also used to evaluate the thermal environment to
determine need for and appropriate design of a shutdown
mechanism.
The output signal is a CMOS logic gate that switches from V+
to V– to indicate that the amplifier is in thermal limit. This flag
output pin can source and sink up to 25µA. The Thermal Flag
pin is HIGH during normal operation. Power dissipated in the
amplifier will cause the junction temperature to rise. When
the junction temperature exceeds 150°C, the Thermal Flag
pin will go LOW, and remain LOW until the amplifier has
cooled to 130°C. Despite this hysteresis, with a method of
orderly shutdown, the Thermal Flag pin can cycle on and off,
depending on load and signal conditions. This limits the
dissipation of the amplifier but may have an undesirable
effect on the load.
It is possible to connect the Thermal Flag pin directly to the
Enable pin for automatic shutdown protection. When both
thermal shutdown and the amplifier enable/disable functions
are desired, the externally generated control signal and the
Thermal Flag pin outputs should be combined with an AND
gate, as shown on Figure 7. The temperature protection was
designed to protect against overload conditions. It was not
intended to replace proper heatsinking. Continuously running
the OPA569 in and out of thermal shutdown will degrade
reliability.

Fast transients of large output current swings (for example
switching from sourcing 2A to sinking 2A fast) may cause a
glitch on the Thermal Flag pin. When switching large currents
is expected, the use of extra bypass between the supplies or
a low-pass filter on the Thermal Flag pin is recommended.
SAFE OPERATING AREA AT ROOM TEMPERATURE

Output Current (A)
Any tendency to activate the thermal protection circuit indicates excessive power dissipation or an inadequate heat
sink. For reliable, long term, continuous operation, the junction temperature should be limited to 125°C maximum. To
estimate the margin of safety in a complete design (including
heat sink), increase the ambient temperature until the thermal protection is triggered. Use worst-case loading and
signal conditions. For good, long-term reliability, thermal
protection should trigger more than 25°C above the maximum expected ambient conditions of your application. This
produces a junction temperature of 125°C at the maximum
expected ambient condition.

Output short-circuits are a particularly demanding for the
amplifier as the full supply voltage is seen across the conducting transistor. It is very important to note that the temperature protection will not shut the part down in overtemperature conditions, unless the Thermal Flag pin is connected to the Enable pin; see the section on Thermal Flag.
Output Current (A)
Power dissipation depends on power supply, signal and load
conditions. It is dominated by the power dissipation of the
output transistors. For DC signals, power dissipation is equal
to the product of output current, IOUT and the output voltage
across the conducting output transistor (VS-VOUT). Dissipation with AC signals is lower. Application Bulletin AB-039
(SBOA022) explains how to calculate or measure power
dissipation with unusual signals and loads and can be found
at the TI web site (www.ti.com).

The power that can be safely dissipated in the package is
related to the ambient temperature and the heatsink design.
The PowerPAD package was specifically designed to provide excellent power dissipation, but board layout greatly
influences the heat dissipation of the package. Refer to
the “PowerPAD Thermally Enhanced Package” section for
further details.
The OPA569 has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance
(θJA) value of 21.6°C/W when soldered to 2 oz copper plane.

improvement in thermal resistance. To achieve the 21.5°C/W

FEEDBACK CAPACITOR IMPROVES RESPONSE
For optimum settling time and stability with higher impedance
feedback networks (RF > 50kΩ), it may be necessary to add
a feedback capacitor across the feedback resistor, RF, as
shown in Figure 13. This capacitor compensates for the zero
created by the feedback network impedance and the OPA569
input capacitance (and any parasitic layout capacitance).
The effect becomes more significant with higher impedance
networks.
The size of the capacitor needed is estimated using the
equation:
RIN • CIN = RF • CF
where CIN is the sum of the input capacitance of the OPA569
plus the parasitic layout capacitance.

PARALLEL OPERATION
PowerPAD THERMALLY ENHANCED PACKAGE
The OPA569 allows parallel operation of multiple op amps to
extend output current capability or improve the output voltage swing to the rail. Special internal circuitry causes the
load current to be shared equally between two (or more) op
amps.
The OPA569 uses the SO-20 PowerPAD package, a thermally enhanced, standard size IC package designed to
eliminate the use of bulky heatsinks and slugs traditionally
used in thermal packages. This package can be easily
mounted using standard PCB assembly techniques.
Figure 14 shows two ways to connect the input terminals.
When the amplifier inputs are connected in parallel, the
effective offset voltage is averaged and the bandwidth and
slew rate performance are the same as that of a single
amplifier. It is also possible to use one amplifier to be the
“master” and connect the other inputs to a voltage within the
common-mode input range of the amplifier; however, slew
rate and bandwidth performance will be degraded.
The PowerPAD package is designed so that the leadframe
die pad (or thermal pad) is exposed on the bottom of the IC,
as shown in Figure 15. This provides an extremely low
thermal resistance (θJC) path between the die and the
exterior of the package. The thermal pad on the bottom of
the IC can then be soldered directly to the PCB, using the
PCB as a heatsink. In addition, plated-through holes (vias)
provide a low thermal resistance heat flow path to the back
side of the PCB.
For best performance, keep additional capacitance at the
Parallel Out pins to a minimum and avoid routing these lines
close to other lines that might see large voltage swings.

4. It is recommended, but not required, to place a small
number of additional holes under the package and outside
the thermal pad area. These holes provide an additional
heat path between the copper land and the ground plane.
They may be larger because they are not in the area to be
soldered, so wicking is not a problem. This is illustrated in
Figure 16.

9. With these preparatory steps in place, the PowerPAD IC
is simply placed in position and run through the solder
reflow operation as any standard surface-mount component. This results in a part that is properly installed.
OPTIONAL:
Additional 4 vias outside of
thermal pad area but under
the package
(Via diameter = 25 mils)
For detailed information on the PowerPAD package including
thermal modeling considerations and repair procedures,
please see Technical Brief SLMA002, “PowerPAD Thermally
Enhanced Package,” located at www.ti.com.
REQUIRED:
Thermal pad area: 140 mils x 176 mils
(3.56mm x 4.47mm) with 24 vias
(Via diameter = 13 mils)

5. Connect all holes, including those within the thermal pad
area and outside the pad area, to the internal ground
plane or other internal copper plane for single supply
applications, and V– for split-supply applications.
6. When laying out these holes to the ground plane, do not
use the typical web or spoke via connection methodology,
as shown in Figure 17. Web connections have a high
thermal resistance connection that is useful for slowing
the heat transfer during soldering operations. This makes
soldering the vias that have ground plane connections
easier. However, in this application, low thermal resistance is desired for the most efficient heat transfer.
Therefore, the holes under the PowerPAD package should
make their connection to the internal ground plane with a
complete connection around the entire circumference of
the plated-through hole.
LAYOUT GUIDELINES
The OPA569 is a power amplifier that requires proper layout
for best performance. Figure 18 shows an example of proper
layout.
Keep power-supply leads as short as possible. This will keep
inductance low and resistive losses at a minimum. A minimum of 18 gauge wire thickness is recommended for powersupply leads. The wire length should be less than 8 inches.
Proper power-supply bypassing with low ESR capacitors is
essential to achieve good performance. A parallel combination of small (around 100nF) ceramic and bigger (47µF)
tantalum bypass capacitors will provide low impedance over
a wide frequency range. Bypass capacitors should be placed
as close as practical to the power-supply pins of the OPA569.
PCB traces conducting high currents, such as from output to
load or from the power-supply connector to the power-supply
pins of the OPA569 should be kept as wide and short as
possible.
The twenty-four holes in the landing pattern for the OPA569
are for the thermal vias that connect the PowerPAD of the
OPA569 to the heatsink area on the PCB. The additional four
larger vias further enhance the heat conduction into the
heatsink area. All traces conducting high currents are very
wide for lowest inductance and minimal resistive losses. Note
that the negative supply (–V) pin on the OPA569 can be
connected through the PowerPAD to allow for maximum
trace width for high current paths.

7. The top-side solder mask should leave the terminals of the
pad connections and the thermal pad area exposed. The
thermal pad area should leave the 13 mil holes exposed.
The larger holes outside the thermal pad area should be
covered with solder mask.
8. Apply solder paste to the exposed thermal pad area and
all of the package terminals.
