DESCRIPTION:
The MSK 640(B) is a wide bandwidth, high voltage color or monochrome CRT video amplifier designed specifically
to drive the cathode of today's most demanding high resolution CRT monitors. The MSK 640(B) is a transimpedance
amplifier capable of achieving a ±25V output voltage swing with an input current of ±9.3mA. The output of the
amplifier is DC biased at half the power supply voltage. Transition times in the range of 2nS enable the MSK 640 to
drive 10nS pixels with ease and make it ideally suited for monitors with 1280 x 1024 or higher display resolutions.
The 9 pin single in-line bathtub package is pin for pin compatible with the LH2424 and CR2424 and is a drop in
replacement for the high-rel versions of these devices with improved stability and thermal performance.

APPLICATION NOTES
TYPICAL TEST CIRCUIT
OUTPUT ISSUES
The signal source in Figure 1 can be either a fast pulse generator or a network analyzer as long as the output impedance is
50 ohms. The DC level of the input should be 1.55V and all
cables should be kept as short as possible. Since total load
capacitance should be kept below 8.5pF, a FET probe should
be used on the ouput.
The output of the MSK 640 is a pair of bipolar emitter followers configured in a complimentary push pull configuration. This
configuration eliminates the need for a pull up load resistor and
makes the amplifier less susceptible to load capacitance variations. Connecting a wire or cable from the output of the amplifier to the CRT cathode can create a resonant circuit which can
cause unwanted oscillations or overshoot at its resonant frequency. A damping resistor in series with the lead inductance
will alleviate this condition. The optimum value of this resistor
can be determined using the following formula:
R = 2* √L/C
This resistor also doubles as an arcing protector. In the breadboarding stage, the value of this resistor should be determined
experimentally. Resistance in the range of 50 to 100 ohms is
usually sufficient. If a quick, simple peaking network is desired, a 300 ohm cable terminated by a capacitor will act like an
inductor in the frequency range involved.
USING THE MSK 640
TRANSIMPEDANCE AMPLIFICATION
The output of the amplifier is biased at one half of the power
supply voltage. An output voltage swing of ±25 volts is typical with a power supply voltage of +60 volts. With an 8.5pF
capacitive load, transistion times are in the 2.1nS range. If a
spark gap current limiting resistor is used on the output of the
amplifier and the transistion times are degraded, a peaking coil
may be used to preserve system performance. The optimum
value for this coil will be in the range of 100 to 200nH and can
best be determined by trial and error. The output of the MSK
640 is not short circuit protected, therefore, purely resistive
loads should be no less than 600 ohms at any time to avoid
damaging the output.
Transimpedance amplifiers relate input current to output voltage. The MSK 640 contains an internal 3KΩ feedback resistor.
This resistor converts input current to output voltage in the
following manner (See figure 1):
±1.43V (referenced to 1.55Vdc) across the 215Ω input resistor results in an input current of ±6.65mA. This current
flows through the 3KΩ feedback resistor and results approximately in a ±20V swing at the output. The actual voltage gain
of the typical MSK640 circuit may be slightly less due to transistor losses. The following formula approximates voltage gain
including potential losses:
Voltage Gain (V/V) = 3KΩ/(Rin + L)
OPERATION CONSIDERATIONS
L ≈ 25Ω
HEAT SINKING
The input of the MSK 640 rests at a +1.55VDC level with
the input terminal open. In this state, the output rests at one
half of the power supply voltage. When connecting a pulse
generator to the input of the amplifier, the DC level should be
offset so that the signal is centered around +1.55V. During
characterization, the input should be coupled to the MSK 640
through a parallel combination of a variable resistor and variable capacitor peaking circuit. Optimum values for the peaking
circuit can be determined experimentally. The optimum value
of load capacitance is 8.5pF. Viewing the output with a normal
oscilloscope probe would seriously degrade performance. A
FET probe fitted with a 100:1 voltage divider will add only
approximately 1.5pF of capacitance to the load and is highly
recommended. An experimental circuit along with recommended
values can be found in Figure 2.
The MSK 640 requires heat sinking in most applications. The
following formula may be applied to determine if a heat sink is
necessary and what size and type to use.
Rθsa = ((Tj-Ta)/Pd ) - (Rθjc) - (Rθcs)
WHERE
Tj = Junction Temperature
Pd = Total power dissipation
Rθjc = Junction to case thermal resistance
Rθcs = Case to heat sink thermal resistance
Rθsa = Heat sink to ambient thermal resistance
Tc = Case temperature
Ta = Ambient temperature
Ts = Sink temperature
EXAMPLE
Tj = 150°C
Ta = 100°C
Pd = 3W
Rθjc = 10.5°C/W
Rθcs = 0.15°C/W
Solving the above equation for Rθsa (heat sink thermal conductivity) shows that the heat sink for this application must have a
thermal resistance of no more than 6.0°C/W to maintain a junction temperature of no more than 150°C.

COMPLETE VIDEO SYSTEM
Figure 3 above shows how an MSK 620 and MSK 640 can be used to drive a 100MHz monochrome monitor. The video signal
is A.C. coupled through C1. The video output pin of the MSK 620 rests at approximately +3.9Vdc and the input of the MSK 640
should be D.C. biased at approximately +1.55Vdc. D1, D2, D3 and Q1 act as a level shifting stage to match the output of the
MSK620 and the input of the MSK640. R8 and R9 sample the output and feed it back to the clamping section of the MSK 620 for
black level control superior to simply sampling from pin 14 of the MSK 620.
