® OPA548 OPA 548 OPA 548 www.burr-brown.com/databook/OPA548.html High-Voltage, High-Current OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER FEATURES DESCRIPTION ● WIDE SUPPLY RANGE Single Supply: +8V to +60V Dual Supply: ±4V to ±30V ● HIGH OUTPUT CURRENT: 3A Continuous 5A Peak The OPA548 is a low cost, high-voltage/high-current operational amplifier ideal for driving a wide variety of loads. A laser-trimmed monolithic integrated circuit provides excellent low-level signal accuracy and high output voltage and current. The OPA548 operates from either single or dual supplies for design flexibility. In single supply operation, the input common-mode range extends below ground. ● WIDE OUTPUT VOLTAGE SWING ● FULLY PROTECTED: Thermal Shutdown Adjustable Current Limit The OPA548 is internally protected against overtemperature conditions and current overloads. In addition, the OPA548 was designed to provide an accurate, user-selected current limit. Unlike other designs which use a “power” resistor in series with the output current path, the OPA548 senses the load indirectly. This allows the current limit to be adjusted from 0 to 5A with a resistor/potentiometer or controlled digitally with a voltage-out or current-out DAC. The Enable/Status (E/S) pin provides two functions. An input on the pin not only disables the output stage to effectively disconnect the load but also reduces the quiescent current to conserve power. The E/S pin output can be monitored to determine if the OPA548 is in thermal shutdown. The OPA548 is available in an industry-standard 7-lead staggered TO-220 package and a 7-lead DDPAK surface-mount plastic power package. The copper tab allows easy mounting to a heat sink or circuit board for excellent thermal performance. It is specified for operation over the extended industrial temperature range, –40°C to +85°C. A SPICE macromodel is available for design analysis. ● OUTPUT DISABLE CONTROL ● THERMAL SHUTDOWN INDICATOR ● HIGH SLEW RATE: 10V/µs ● LOW QUIESCENT CURRENT ● PACKAGES: 7-Lead TO-220 7-Lead DDPAK Surface-Mount APPLICATIONS ● VALVE, ACTUATOR DRIVER ● SYNCHRO, SERVO DRIVER ● POWER SUPPLIES ● TEST EQUIPMENT ● TRANSDUCER EXCITATION ● AUDIO AMPLIFIER V+ – VIN OPA548 VO ILIM + VIN RCL (1/4W Resistor) RCL sets the current limit value from 0 to 5A.

The OPA548 can be used in virtually any op amp configuration. R CL = Power supply terminals should be bypassed with low series impedance capacitors. The technique shown, using a ceramic and tantalum type in parallel is recommended. In addition, we recommend a 0.01µF capacitor between V+ and V– as close to the OPA548 as possible. Power supply wiring should have low series impedance. G = 1+ 0.1µF(2) R1 Figure 3 shows a simplified schematic of the internal circuitry used to set the current limit. Leaving the ILIM pin open programs the output current to zero, while connecting ILIM directly to V– programs the maximum output current limit, typically 5A. R2 R1 SAFE OPERATING AREA Stress on the output transistors is determined both by the output current and by the output voltage across the conducting output transistor, VS – VO. The power dissipated by the output transistor is equal to the product of the output current and the voltage across the conducting transistor, VS – VO.

POWER SUPPLIES PD Output current can be limited to less than 3A—see text. 1 PD TC = 25°C =5 0W =2 6W =1 0W TC = 85°C The OPA548 operates from single (+8V to +60V) or dual (±4V to ±30V) supplies with excellent performance. Most behavior remains unchanged throughout the full operating voltage range. Parameters which vary significantly with operating voltage are shown in the typical performance curves.

Some applications do not require equal positive and negative output voltage swing. Power supply voltages do not need to be equal. The OPA548 can operate with as little as 8V between the supplies and with up to 60V between the supplies. For example, the positive supply could be set to 55V with the negative supply at –5V, or vice-versa. The safe output current decreases as VS – VO increases. Output short-circuits are a very demanding case for SOA. A short-circuit to ground forces the full power supply voltage (V+ or V–) across the conducting transistor. Increasing the case temperature reduces the safe output current that can be tolerated without activating the thermal shutdown circuit of the OPA548. For further insight on SOA, consult Application Bulletin AB-039. ADJUSTABLE CURRENT LIMIT The OPA548 features an accurate, user-selected current limit. Current limit is set from 0 to 5A by controlling the input to the ILIM pin. Unlike other designs which use a power resistor in series with the output current path, the OPA548 senses the load indirectly. This allows the current limit to be set with a 0 to 330µA control signal. In contrast, other designs require a limiting resistor to handle the full output current (5A in this case).

Power dissipation can be minimized by using the lowest possible power supply voltage necessary to assure the required output voltage swing. tion of the amplifier but may have an undesirable effect on the load. Any tendency to activate the thermal protection circuit indicates excessive power dissipation or an inadequate heat sink. For reliable operation, 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 load and signal conditions. For good reliability, thermal protection should trigger more than 35°C above the maximum expected ambient condition of your application. This produces a junction temperature of 125°C at the maximum expected ambient condition. For resistive loads, the maximum power dissipation occurs at a dc output voltage of one-half the power supply voltage. Dissipation with ac signals is lower. Application Bulletin AB-039 explains how to calculate or measure power dissipation with unusual signals and loads. THERMAL PROTECTION Power dissipated in the OPA548 will cause the junction temperature to rise. The OPA548 has thermal shutdown circuitry that protects the amplifier from damage. The thermal protection circuitry disables the output when the junction temperature reaches approximately 160°C, allowing the device to cool. When the junction temperature cools to approximately 140°C, the output circuitry is again enabled. Depending on load and signal conditions, the thermal protection circuit may cycle on and off. This limits the dissipa- The internal protection circuitry of the OPA548 was designed to protect against overload conditions. It was not intended to replace proper heat sinking. Continuously running the OPA548 into thermal shutdown will degrade reliability. ® OPA548 10 HEAT SINKING Most applications require a heat sink to assure that the maximum operating junction temperature (125°C) is not exceeded. In addition, the junction temperature should be kept as low as possible for increased reliability. Junction temperature can be determined according to the equation: TJ = TA + PDθJA (1) where, θJA = θJC + θCH + θHA (2) Combining equations (1) and (2) gives: TJ = TA + PD(θJC + θCH + θHA) TJ, TA, and PD are given. θJC is provided in the specification table, 2.5°C/W (dc). θCH can be obtained from the heat sink manufacturer. Its value depends on heat sink size, area, and material used. Semiconductor package type, mounting screw torque, insulating material used (if any), and thermal joint compound used (if any) also affect θCH. A typical θCH for a TO-220 mounted package is 1°C/W. Now we can solve for θHA: TJ = Junction Temperature (°C) TA = Ambient Temperature (°C) PD = Power Dissipated (W) θJC = Junction-to-Case Thermal Resistance (°C/W) θCH = Case-to-Heat Sink Thermal Resistance (°C/W) θHA = Heat Sink-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance (°C/W) θJA = Junction-to-Air Thermal Resistance (°C/W) Figure 7 shows maximum power dissipation versus ambient temperature with and without the use of a heat sink. Using a heat sink significantly increases the maximum power dissipation at a given ambient temperature as shown.

One or both of these functions can be utilized on the same device using single or dual supplies. For normal operation (output enabled), the E/S pin can be left open or pulled high (at least 2.4V above the negative rail). A small value capacitor connected between the E/S pin and V– may be required for noisy applications. DDPAK θ JA = 26°C/W (3 in2 one oz copper mounting pad) 4 θ HA = As mentioned earlier, once a heat sink has been selected the complete design should be tested under worst-case load and signal conditions to ensure proper thermal protection. PD = (TJ (max) – TA) / θ JA TJ (max) = 150°C With infinite heat sink ( θJA = 2.5°C/W), max PD = 50W at TA = 25°C. 6 TJ – TA – (θ JC + θ CH ) PD Another variable to consider is natural convection vs forced convection air flow. Forced-air cooling by a small fan can lower θCA (θCH + θHA) dramatically. Heat sink manufactures provide thermal data for both of these cases. For additional information on determining heat sink requirements, consult Application Bulletin AB-038. MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION vs AMBIENT TEMPERATURE TO-220 with Thermalloy 6030B Heat Sink θ JA = 16.7°C/W θ HA = To maintain junction temperature below 125°C, the heat sink selected must have a θHA less than 14°C/W. In other words, the heat sink temperature rise above ambient must be less than 67.5°C (13.5°C/W x 5W). For example, at 5 Watts Thermalloy model number 6030B has a heat sink temperature rise of 66°C above ambient (θHA = 66°C/5W = 13.2°C/W), which is below the 67.5°C required in this example. Figure 7 shows power dissipation versus ambient temperature for a TO-220 package with a 6030B heat sink. The difficulty in selecting the heat sink required lies in determining the power dissipated by the OPA548. For dc output into a purely resistive load, power dissipation is simply the load current times the voltage developed across the conducting output transistor, PD = IL(Vs–VO). Other loads are not as simple. Consult Application Bulletin AB039 for further insight on calculating power dissipation. Once power dissipation for an application is known, the proper heat sink can be selected. 10 (3) 125 Ambient Temperature (°C) FIGURE 7. Maximum Power Dissipation vs Ambient Temperature. Output Disable A unique feature of the OPA548 is its output disable capability. This function not only conserves power during idle periods (quiescent current drops to approximately 6mA) but also allows multiplexing in low frequency (f<20kHz), multichannel applications. Signals greater than 20kHz may cause leakage current to increase in devices that are shutdown. Figure 18 shows the two OPA548s in a switched amplifier configuration. The on/off state of the two amplifiers is controlled by the voltage on the E/S pin. Heat Sink Selection Example A TO-220 package is dissipating 5 Watts. The maximum expected ambient temperature is 40°C. Find the proper heat sink to keep the junction temperature below 125°C (150°C minus 25°C safety margin). ® 11 OPA548 To disable the output, the E/S pin is pulled low, no greater than 0.8V above the negative rail. Typically the output is shutdown in 1µs. Figure 8 provides an example of how to implement this function using a single supply. Figure 9 gives a circuit for dual supply applications. To return the output to an enabled state, the E/S pin should be disconnected (open) or pulled to at least (V–) + 2.4V. It should be noted that pulling the E/S pin high (output enabled) does not disable internal thermal shutdown. V+ 5V OPA548 2.49kΩ E/S TTL V– Zetex ZVN3310 OR HCT V+ FIGURE 10.

OPA548 E/S 1 6 Output Disable and Thermal Shutdown Status As mentioned earlier, the OPA548’s output can be disabled and the disable status can be monitored simultaneously. Figures 12 and 13 provide examples interfacing to the E/S pin while using a single supply and dual supplies, respectively. 5 (1) 1 4 HCT or TTL In 4N38 Optocoupler V– OUTPUT STAGE COMPENSATION The complex load impedances common in power op amp applications can cause output stage instability. For normal operation output compensation circuitry is typically not required. However, if the OPA548 is intended to be driven into current limit, an R/C network may be required. Figure 14 shows an output series R/C compensation (snubber) network which generally provides excellent stability. NOTE: (1) Optional—may be required to limit leakage current of optocoupler at high temperatures. FIGURE 9. Output Disable with Dual Supplies. Thermal Shutdown Status Internal thermal shutdown circuitry shuts down the output when the die temperature reaches approximately 160°C, resetting when the die has cooled to 140°C. The E/S pin can be monitored to determine if shutdown has occurred. During normal operation the voltage on the E/S pin is typically 3.5V above the negative rail. Once shutdown has occurred this voltage drops to approximately 350mV above the negative rail. A snubber circuit may also enhance stability when driving large capacitive loads (>1000pF) or inductive loads (motors, loads separated from the amplifier by long cables). Typically 3Ω to 10Ω in series with 0.01µF to 0.1µF is adequate. Some variations in circuit value may be required with certain loads. Figure 10 gives an example of monitoring shutdown in a single supply application. Figure 11 provides a circuit for dual supplies. External logic circuitry or an LED could be used to indicate if the output has been thermally shutdown, see Figure 16. OUTPUT PROTECTION Reactive and EMF-generating loads can return load current to the amplifier, causing the output voltage to exceed the power supply voltage.

Schottky rectifier diodes with a 5A or greater continuous rating are recommended. VCL, is connected to the noninverting input of the op amp and used as a voltage reference, thus eliminating the need for an external reference. The feedback resistors are selected to gain VCL to the desired output voltage level. VOLTAGE SOURCE APPLICATION Figure 15 illustrates how to use the OPA548 to provide an accurate voltage source with only three external resistors. First, the current limit resistor, RCL, is chosen according to the desired output current. The resulting voltage at the ILIM pin is constant and stable over temperature. This voltage, PROGRAMMABLE POWER SUPPLY A programmable source/sink power supply can easily be built using the OPA548. Both the output voltage and output current are user-controlled. Figure 16 shows a circuit using potentiometers to adjust the output voltage and current while Figure 17 uses digital-to-analog converters. An LED tied to the E/S pin through a logic gate indicates if the OPA548 is in thermal shutdown. ® 13 OPA548 R1 R2 V+ VO = VCL (1 + R2/R1) 4.75V 13750Ω V– IO = VCL 15000 (4.75V) 13750Ω + RCL ILIM For Example: RCL 0.01µF (Optional, for noisy environments) If ILIM = 3A, RCL = 10kΩ VCL = 10kΩ • 4.75V = 2V (10kΩ + 13750Ω) Desired VO = 20V, G = 20 2 Uses voltage developed at ILIM pin as a moderately accurate reference voltage. = 10 R1 = 1kΩ and R2 = 9kΩ FIGURE 15.
