DESCRIPTION:
The MSK 642(B) is a wide bandwidth, high voltage color or monochrome CRT video amplifier designed specifically
to drive the grid of today's most demanding high resolution CRT monitors. The MSK 642(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 2.5nS enable the MSK 642
to drive 10nS pixels with ease and make it ideally suited for monitors with 1280 x 1024 or higher display resolutions.
The MSK 642 is mounted in a space efficient 9 pin single in-line bathtub package with heat sink fins.

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 642 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 grid 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 642
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 2.5nS 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
642 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 AMPLIFICATION
Transimpedance amplifiers relate input current to output voltage. The MSK 642 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 MSK 642 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
The input of the MSK 642 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 642 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.
L ≈ 25Ω
HEAT SINKING
The MSK 642 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 = 1.5W
Rθjc = 27°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 illustrates how an MSK 620 and MSK 642 can be used to build a compete video system for high voltage grid
drive. RA and RB act as a level shift stage to match the +3.9Vdc level at the output of the MSK 620 with the -1.55Vdc level at
the input of the MSK 642. The output of the MSK 642 is sampled and fed back to the MSK 620. This scheme provides black level
control superior to sampling the signal at pin 14 of the MSK 620. The general rule of thumb for transition times for a video driver
is that rising and falling edges should be no more than one third the pixel time of the monitor. To improve rise and fall time in the
system, the peaking capacitor Cp was added across the input resistor of the MSK 642. At high frequencies Cp increases the gain
of the amplifier there by causing peaking. Cp should be a variable capacitor so that the response of the amplifier can be fine tuned
for minimum transition time with minimum ringing.
