An Introduction to Power Amp Design

Power Amp Design specializes in high power operational amplifiers for industrial applications. With a new concept for component amplifiers, these power op amp designs feature surface mount component construction on an insulated metal substrate. An integral heat sink and fan provide optimum cooling. The new approach decreases weight and system complexity while increasing power density. Unique and compact turn-key solutions result for many high power industrial amplifier applications. These power op amp designs operate as simply as IC op amps but at far higher power levels. Power Amp Design evolved from a custom amplifier design consulting business into a catalog products business while accumulating over two decades of engineering experience in high current power amplifiers with outputs as high as 50 amps and high voltage amplifiers with outputs up to 2000 volts. Applications served by our amplifiers are as diverse as motor drives and scanning tunneling microscope transducer drives. Typical applications for amplifiers by Power Amp Design include: Sonar transducer drive Ink jet printer head drive MRI Scanning tunneling microscopes Surface scanners Magnetic deflection Motor drive Deformable mirror telescopes Mass spectrometers ATE pin drivers Vibration cancelling amplifiers Semiconductor production equipment Ultra-sound transducer drive
Power Amp Design continues to offer an expanding choice of catalog products, but can also design custom amplifiers for your application, as well as modify existing designs to meet your specific requirements. For custom installations, most amplifier models are available without the heat sink and fan or can be supplied mounted to a passive heat sink. All products are manufactured in an ISO9001 facility. Each catalog product is supported by an evaluation kit, accessory modules that can modify and enhance the performance of the basic amplifier, SPICE models for your circuit simulator and application articles to expand on data sheet information. And all products are supported expert applications assistance.
NEW IN THIS CATALOG ISSUE v4.0

This issue includes several important changes to our catalog. Our application notes have been collected into a library document and are now separate from our catalog of products. The Application Notes Library can now be downloaded separately from the catalog of products. Our new line of compact power op amps is expanded with the low cost 100V, 5Amp, model PAD541 in a SIP package. The PAD541 has a height similar to the industry standard TO220 package used for monolithic amplifiers but the PAD541 outperforms those products. The PAD541 is useful in applications where motherboards are side by side in a card cage and board-to-board spacing is critical. Although most of our products are offered without the integrated heat sink and fan cooling for custom applications, the compact line specifies most products both with and without the heat sink and fan. The versions without the heat sink and fan are denoted by the -1 suffix. Check out the compact line of amplifiers and also the compact prices. We have consolidated our line of evaluation kits. Several of the evaluation kit models have been upgraded and modified to service several amplifier models. For example, the EVAL118 evaluation kit now services the PAD115, PAD118 and PAD119 model amplifiers. The upgrades make the evaluation kits easier to use and faster to build your application circuits. More kits now also include support for more of our accessory modules, allowing you to evaluate the amplifier/accessory module combination as well. We have also made changes to our accessory module line. The PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module now replaces the PAD121 and PAD123 Current Limit Accessory Modules. The PAD125 covers the entire range the 8V to 250V and so covers amplifiers with supply voltages up to 500V total. Our rail to rail amplifier product line has also changed. The PAD117A replaces the PAD117 and PAD116 and matches the performance of both models in one new model. The A version of the PAD117 includes a supply voltage range down to 5V with an output of 10A. We have added another RRIO model also. The new PAD137 has similar AC performance to the PAD117A but with a higher power dissipation rating of 140W, a 40% improvement over the PAD117A. And finally, we have introduced the PAD38 and PAD39 power op amps. The PAD38 and PAD39 provide a form, fit and function second-source for the industrys MP38 and MP39 amplifiers respectively.

PAD20 COMPACT HIGH VOLTAGE OP AMP
DESCRIPTION
The PAD20 high voltage operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a low cost solution for many industrial applications. With a footprint only 40mm square, similar to the footprint of the TO3 hybrid package, the PAD20 offers outstanding performance that outperforms the more expensive hybrid amplifiers. External compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. Fourwire programmable current limit is built-in. The PAD20 also features a substrate temperature reporting output and over-temp shutdown. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating metal substrate mounted to an integrated heat sink and fan assembly. No BeO is used in the PAD20. The PAD20-1 is also available without the integrated heat sink and fan for custom applications.

A NEW CONCEPT
A critical task in any power amplifier application is cooling the amplifier. Until now component amplifier manufacturers often treated this task as an after-thought, left for the user to figure out. At Power Amp Design the best heat sink and fan is chosen at the start and becomes an integral part of the overall amplifier design. The result is the most compact and volumetric efficient design combination at the lowest cost. In addition, this integrated solution concept offers an achievable real-world power dissipation rating, not the ideal rating usually cited when the amplifier case is somehow kept at 25oC. The user no longer needs to specify, procure or assemble separate components.

PAD20 OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS

forth a few times to bed the amplifier into the heat sink grease. On the final twist align the mounting holes of the amplifier with the mounting holes in the heat sink and finish the mounting using 4-40 hex male-female spacers and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. Mount the amplifier to the mother board with 4-40 X 1/4 screws. See Dimensional Information for additional recommendations.
COOLING FAN
The PAD20 relies on its fan for proper cooling of the amplifier. Make sure that air flow to the fan and away from the heat sink remains unobstructed. To eliminate electrical noise created by the cooling fan we recommend a 47F capacitor placed directly at the point where the fan wires connect to the PCB. See application note AN-24 for further details.
PowerAmp Design
CURRENT LIMIT
The current limiting function of the PAD20 is a versatile circuit that can be used to implement a four-wire current limit configuration or, in combination with some external components can be configured to implement a fold-over current limit circuit. The four-wire current limit configuration insures that parasitic resistance in the output line, Rp, does not affect the programmed current limit setting. See Figure 1. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.63V. Thus approximately: 0.63V IL = RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor from 0.4-40. See graph for Current Limit Value vs RS. In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC. The fold-over function reduces the available current as the voltage across the output transistors increases to help insure that the SOA of the output transistors is not exceeded. Refer to Figure 4 in Application Circuits for details on how to connect the current limit circuitry to implement either a four-wire current limit or current limit with a fold-over function. In some applications better current limiting protection and a lower sense voltage may be desired. In this case the PAD20 can be operated with the PAD125 current limit accessory module. See Figure 3 in the applications section and the PAD125 datasheet for more details.
TEMPERATURE REPORTING
An analog output voltage is provided (pin 8, TMP) relative to ground and proportional to the temperature in degrees C. The slope is approximately -10.82mV/oC. The output voltage follows the equation: T = (2.127 V) (92.42) Where V is the TMP output voltage and T is the substrate temperature in degrees C.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
The temperature monitoring circuit automatically turns off the amplifier when the substrate temperature reaches 110oC. When the substrate cools down 10oC the amplifier is enabled once again. The thermal shutdown feature is activated either by amplifier overloads or a failure of the fan circuit.
EXTERNAL SHUTDOWN
When pin 9 ( SD ) is taken low (ground) the amplifier is turned off and remains off as long as pin 9 is low. When pin 9 is monitored with a high impedance circuit it also functions as a flag, reporting when the amplifier is shut down. A high (+5V) on pin 9 indicates the temperature is in the normal range. A low (ground) indicates a shutdown condition. See Application Circuits Figure 2.
PHASE COMPENSATION
The PAD20 must be phase compensated. The compensation capacitor, CC, is connected between pins 2 and 3. The compensation capacitor must be an NPO type capacitor rated for the full supply voltage (150V). On page 2, under Amplifier Pinout and Connections, you will find a table that gives recommended compensation capacitance value for various circuit gains and the resulting slew rate for each capacitor value. Consult also the small signal response and phase response plots for the selected compensation value in the Typical Performance Graphs section. A compensation capacitor less than 47pF is not recommended.
MOUNTING THE PAD20

The amplifier is supplied with four 4-40 M/F hex spacers at the four corners of the amplifier. Once the amplifier is seated, secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by providing a grounded circuit board pad around any of the holes for the mounting studs.
MOUNTING THE PAD20-1 AMPLIFIER

In most applications the amplifier must be attached to a heat sink. Spread a thin and even coat of heat sink grease across the back of the PAD20-1 and also the heat sink where the amplifier is to be mounted. Push the amplifier into the heat sink grease on the heat sink while slightly twisting the amplifier back and

SAFE OPERATING AREA

The safe operating area (SOA) of a power amplifier is its single most important specification. The SOA graph presented above serves as a first approximation to help you decide if the PAD20 will meet the demands of your application. But a more accurate determination can be reached by making use of the PAD Power spreadsheet which can be found in the Power Amp Design website under the Design Spreadsheet tab. While the graph above adequately shows DC SOA and some pulse information it does not take into account ambient temperatures higher than 30OC, AC sine, phase or non-symmetric conditions that often appear in real-world applications. The PAD Power spreadsheet takes all of these effects into account.

With the three current limit function pins (pins 10-12) dual slope current limiting can be implemented that more closely approximates the SOA curve of the amplifier than can be achieved with standard current limiting techniques. Values for resistors R1-R7 and RS can be calculated using the PAD Power Excel spreadsheet that can be downloaded from the Power Amp Design web site under the Design Spreadsheet tab.

PAD38 OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS PHASE COMPENSATION

SAFETY FIRST
The operating voltages of the PAD38 are potentially deadly. When developing an application circuit it is wise to begin with power supply voltages as low as possible while checking for circuit functionality. Increase supply voltages slowly as confidence in the application circuit increases. Always use a hands off method whereby test equipment probes are attached only when power is off.
PowerAmp Design
CURRENT LIMIT
The current limiting function of the PAD38 is a versatile circuit that can be used to implement a four-wire current limit configuration. The four-wire current limit configuration insures that parasitic resistance in the output line, Rp, does not affect the programmed current limit setting. See Figure 1 below. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.7V. Thus: 0.7V IL = RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor. In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC.
RF
USING THE IQ PIN FUNCTION

When pin 25 (IQ) is tied to pin 6 (Cc1) the class AB bias of the output stage becomes C bias. The quiescent current of the PAD38 typically drops by 10mA. In some applications the reduced quiescent current is important. However, note that applying this option will raise the output impedance of the amplifier which may change the stability of the circuit and will increase crossover distortion also.
BOOST OPERATION
The small signal stages of the PAD38 are connected to the VB power supply pins. When the VB voltages are greater than the Vs power supply pins the small signal stages of the amplifier are biased so that the output transistors can be driven very close to the Vs rails. Close swings to the supply rails increase the efficiency of the amplifier and make better use the supply voltages. This technique is often used to operate the amplifier with only a single high current power supply, thus reducing the system size and cost. Also see the application article AN-22 Single Supply Operation with Power Op Amps for more detailed information and circuits.

Figure 1 MOUNTING THE AMPLIFIER

In most applications the amplifier must be attached to a heat sink. Spread a thin and even coat of heat sink grease across the back of the PAD38 and also the heat sink where the amplifier is to be mounted. Push the amplifier into the heat sink grease on the heat sink while slightly twisting the amplifier back and forth a few times to bed the amplifier into the heat sink grease. On the final twist align the mounting holes of the amplifier with the mounting holes in the heat sink and finish the mounting using 4-40 hex male-female spacers. Mount the amplifier to the mother board with 4-40 X 1/4 screws.

PAD112 OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS TEMPERATURE REPORTING

An analog output voltage is provided (pin 6, TMP) relative to ground and proportional to the temperature in degrees C. The slope is approximately -10.82mV/oC. The output voltage follows the equation: T = (2.127 V) (92.42) Where V is the TMP output voltage and T is the substrate temperature in degrees C. This high impedance output circuit is susceptible to capacitive loading and pickup from the output of the amplifier. When monitoring TMP filter the voltage as shown in Figure 3. See Applications Circuits.

THERMAL SHUTDOWN CURRENT LIMIT

The current limiting function of the PAD112 is a versatile circuit that can be used to implement a four-wire current limit configuration or, in combination with some external components can be configured to implement a fold-over current limit circuit. The four-wire current limit configuration insures that parasitic resistance in the output line, Rp, does not affect the programmed current limit setting. See Figure 1. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.65V. Thus: 0.65V IL = RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor. In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC. The fold-over function reduces the available current as the voltage across the output transistors increases to help insure that the SOA of the output transistors is not exceeded. Refer to Application Circuits for details on how to connect the current limit circuitry to implement either a four-wire current limit or current limit with a fold-over function. The PAD112 is also compatible with the precision PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module. See Figure 4 and the datasheet for the PAD125 for further details. The temperature monitoring circuit automatically turns off the amplifier when the substrate temperature reaches 110oC. When the substrate cools down 10oC the amplifier is enabled once again. The thermal shutdown feature is activated either by amplifier overloads or a failure of the fan circuit.
EXTERNAL SHUTDOWN
When pin 7 ( SD ) is taken low (ground) the amplifier is turned off and remains off as long as pin 7 is low. When pin 7 is monitored with a high impedance circuit it also functions as a flag, reporting when the amplifier is shut down. A high (+5V) on pin 7 indicates the temperature is in the normal range. A low (ground) indicates a shutdown condition. See Application Circuits for details on how to implement an external shutdown circuit and how to monitor the shutdown status when temperature is in the normal range. A low (ground) indicates a shutdown condition. See Application Circuits for details on how to implement an external shutdown circuit and how to monitor the shutdown status.

SAFE OPERATING AREA

The safe operating area (SOA) of a power amplifier is its single most important specification. The SOA graph presented above serves as a first approximation to help you decide if the PAD112 will meet the demands of your application. But a more accurate determination can be reached by making use of the PAD Power spreadsheet which can be found in the Power Amp Design website under Design Spreadsheet tab. While the graph above adequately shows DC SOA and some pulse information it does not take into account ambient temperatures higher than 30OC, AC sine, phase or non-symmetric conditions that often appear in real-world applications. The PAD Power spreadsheet takes all of these effects into account.

DESCRIPTION
The PAD113 high voltage operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications. With a footprint only 3.8 in2 the PAD113 offers outstanding performance that rivals much more expensive hybrid component amplifiers or rack-mount amplifiers. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. Four-wire programmable current limit is built-in. The PAD113 also features a substrate temperature reporting output and overtemp shutdown. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating substrate mounted to an integral heat sink and fan assembly. No BeO is used in the PAD113. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

SAFETY FIRST
The operating voltages of the PAD113 are potentially deadly. When developing an application circuit it is wise to begin with power supply voltages as low as possible while checking for circuit functionality. Increase supply voltages slowly as confidence in the application circuit increases. Always use a hands off method whereby test equipment probes are attached only when power is off. See application note AN-16 for PCB layout guidelines. 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by providing a grounded circuit board pad around any of the holes for the mounting studs.
PowerAmp Design
EXTERNAL CIRCUIT COMPONENTS

The output of the PAD113 can swing up to +/- 240V and this may stress or destroy external components that are often not seriously considered when developing circuits with small signal op amps. High voltage rated resistors may be purchased for the feedback circuit or, alternately, several ordinary resistors may be placed in series to obtain the proper voltage rating. The compensation capacitor CC is a NPO type and is rated for 500V. See AN-16 for PCB layout guidelines.

COOLING FAN
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
The temperature monitoring circuit automatically turns off the amplifier when the substrate temperature reaches 110oC. When the substrate cools down 10oC the amplifier is enabled once again. The thermal shutdown feature is activated either by amplifier overloads or a failure of the fan circuit.
CURRENT LIMIT
The current limiting function of the PAD113 is a versatile circuit that can be used to implement a four-wire current limit configuration or, in combination with some external components can be configured to implement a fold-over current limit circuit. The four-wire current limit configuration insures that parasitic resistance in the output line, Rp, does not affect the programmed current limit setting. See Figure 1. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.63V. Thus approximately: 0.63V IL = RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor from 0.4-40. See graph for Current Limit Value vs RS. In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC. The fold-over function reduces the available current as the voltage across the output transistors increases to help insure that the SOA of the output transistors is not exceeded. Refer to Application Circuits for details on how to connect the current limit circuitry to implement either a four-wire current limit or current limit with a fold-over function. The PAD113 is also compatible with the precision PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module. See Figure 4 and the datasheet for the PAD125 for further details.

A NEW CONCEPT
A critical task in any power amplifier application is cooling the amplifier. Until now component amplifier manufacturers often treated this task as an after-thought, left for the user to figure out. At Power Amp Design the best heat sink and fan combination is chosen at the start and becomes an integral part of the overall amplifier design. The result is the most compact and volumetric efficient design combination at the lowest cost. In addition, this integrated solution concept offers an achievable real-world power dissipation rating, not the ideal rating usually cited when the amplifier case is somehow kept at 25oC. The user no longer needs to specify, procure or assemble separate components.

NOTES: 1. Unless otherwise noted: TC=25OC, compensation Cc=470pF, DC input specifications are value given, power supply voltage is typical rating. 2. Derate internal power dissipation to achieve high MTBF. 3. Doubles for every 10OC of case temperature increase. 4. Rating applies if the output current alternates between both output transistors at a rate faster than 60Hz. 5. Limited by fan storage characteristics. During operation, even though the case may be at 85OC the fan will be at a lower temperature. 6. L10 refers to the time it takes for 10% of a population of fans to fail. MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure), on the other hand, refers to a 50% failure rate. The MTBF of fans used by Power Amp Design is 210 kHrs at 50C. 7. +Vcc and Vcc must not be more than 20V greater than +Vs and Vs respectively

COOLING FAN
The PAD115 relies on its fan for proper cooling of the amplifier. Make sure that air flow to the fan and away from the heat sink remains unobstructed. The cooling method used is impingement cooling, which means that cool air is pushed into the heat sink and warm air is exhausted through the spaces between the heat sink fins. To eliminate electrical noise created by the cooling fan we recommend a 47F capacitor placed directly at the point where the fan wires connect to the PCB. See application note AN-24 for further details.
PAD115
OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS
110oC. When the substrate cools down 10oC the output is enabled once again. The thermal shutdown feature is activated either by amplifier overloads or a failure of the fan circuit.
PowerAmp Design
EXTERNAL SHUTDOWN
When pin 26 ( SD ) is taken low (ground) the output stage is turned off and remains off as long as pin 26 is low. When pin 26 is monitored with a high impedance circuit it also functions as a flag, reporting when the amplifier is shut down. A high (+5V) on pin 26 indicates the temperature is in the normal range. A low (ground) indicates a shutdown condition. See Application Circuits for details on how to implement an external shutdown circuit and how to monitor the shutdown status.

The amplifier is supplied with four 4-40 M/F hex spacers at the four corner of the amplifier. Since the male threaded ends of the spacers extend beyond the amplifier pins the spacers provide a convenient alignment tool to guide the insertion of the amplifier pins into the circuit board. Once the amplifier is seated secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing.
CURRENT LIMIT
The PAD115 does not have a current limiting circuit built in. However, a Current Limit Accessory Module, model PAD125, is available if the current limiting function is needed for the application. See the PAD125 data sheet and Application Circuits for a typical connection diagram.
PHASE COMPENSATION
The PAD115 must be phase compensated to operate correctly. The compensation capacitor, CC, is connected between pins 4 and 5. On page 6, Typical Performance Graphs, you will find plots for small signal response and phase response using compensation values of 100pF and 470pF. The compensation capacitor must be an NPO type capacitor rated for the full supply voltage (300V). On page 2, under Amplifier Pinout & Connections, you will find a table that gives recommended compensation capacitance value for various circuit gains and the resulting slew rate for each capacitor value. A compensation capacitor less than 100pF is not recommended.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
The temperature monitoring circuit automatically turns off the output transistors when the substrate temperature reaches

DESCRIPTION
The PAD117A rail to rail operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications where it is important to obtain a maximum output signal with limited supply voltages. With a footprint only 5.6 in2 the PAD117A offers outstanding performance that rivals much more expensive hybrid component amplifiers or rack-mount amplifiers. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. Four-wire programmable current limit is built-in, but the PAD117A is compatible with the external PAD125 current limit accessory module as well. The PAD117A also features a substrate temperature reporting output and overtemp shutdown. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating substrate mounted to an integral heat sink and fan assembly. No BeO is used in the PAD117A. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

PAD117A
COMMON MODE RANGE

The PAD117A is a rail to rail operational amplifier. This means that it works equally well with the input pins biased to either supply rail or at any voltage in between. The most common application utilizing this function is the single supply voltage amplifier where the +IN pin and the Vs supply pin are grounded.
OUTPUT SWING
With no load the output voltage of the PAD117A can swing to either supply voltage rail. As the load current increases the maximum output swing is reduced, but at 15A output the swing from the positive supply rail is less than 1V and less than 1.5V from the negative supply rail. This does not include any voltage drop due to the sensing voltage required for the current limit circuit to operate.
of the spacers extend beyond the amplifier pins the spacers provide a convenient alignment tool to guide the insertion of the amplifier pins into the circuit board. Once the amplifier is seated secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by providing a grounded circuit board pad around any of the holes for the mounting studs.
PowerAmp Design
CURRENT LIMIT
The current limiting function of the PAD117A is a versatile circuit that can be used to implement a four-wire current limit configuration or, in combination with some external components can be configured to implement a fold-over current limit circuit. The four-wire current limit configuration insures that parasitic resistance in the output line, Rp, does not affect the programmed current limit setting. See Figure 1. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.65V. Thus: 0.65V IL = RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor. In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC. The fold-over function reduces the available current as the voltage across the output transistors increases to help insure that the SOA of the output transistors is not exceeded. Refer to Application Circuits for details on how to connect the current limit circuitry to implement either a four-wire current limit or current limit with a fold-over function. In some applications better current limiting protection and a lower sense voltage may be desired. In this case the PAD117A can be operated with the PAD125 current limit accessory module. See Figure 3 in the applications section and the PAD125 data sheet for more details.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
The temperature monitoring circuit automatically turns off the output transistors when the substrate temperature reaches 110oC. When the substrate cools down 10oC the output is enabled once again. The thermal shutdown feature is activated either by amplifier overloads or a failure of the fan circuit.
EXTERNAL SHUTDOWN
PHASE COMPENSATION
The PAD117A must be phase compensated to operate correctly. The compensation capacitor, CC, is connected between pins 4 and 5. On page 6, Typical Performance Graphs, you will find plots for small signal response and phase response using compensation values of 100pF and 470pF.

SAFE OPERATING AREA
The safe operating area (SOA) of a power amplifier is its single most important specification. The SOA graph presented above serves as a first approximation to help you decide if the PAD117A will meet the demands of your application. But a more accurate determination can be reached by making use of the PAD Power spreadsheet which can be found in the Power Amp Design website under the Design Spreadsheet tab. While the graph above adequately shows DC SOA and some pulse information it does not take into account ambient temperatures higher than 30OC, AC sine, phase or non-symmetric conditions that often appear in real-world applications. The PAD Power spreadsheet takes all of these effects into account.

With the three current limit function pins (pins 21-23) dual slope current limiting can be implemented that more closely approximates the SOA curve of the amplifier than can be achieved with standard current limiting techniques. Values for resistors R1-R7 and RS can be calculated using the PAD Power spreadsheet that can be downloaded from the Power Amp Design web site under the Design Spreadsheet tab.

PAD118
DESCRIPTION
The PAD118 high power operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications. With a footprint only 5.6 in2 the PAD118 offers outstanding performance that rivals much more expensive hybrid component amplifiers or rack-mount amplifiers. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. The PAD118 also features a substrate temperature reporting output and overtemp shutdown. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating substrate mounted to an integral heat sink and fan assembly. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

The PAD118 must be phase compensated to operate correctly. The compensation capacitor, CC, is connected between pins 4 and 5. On page 6, Typical Performance Graphs, you will find plots for small signal response and phase response using compensation values of 100pF and 470pF. The compensation capacitor must be an NPO type capacitor rated for the full supply voltage (100V). On page 2, under Amplifier Pinout and Connections, you will find a table that gives recommended compensation capacitance value for various circuit gains and the resulting slew rate for each capacitor value. A compensation capacitor less than 100pF is not recommended.

MOUNTING THE PAD119 AMPLIFIER


Model PAD119-1 is supplied without the heat sink and fan assembly for custom applications. See PAD119-1 Dimensional Information for details. Spread a thin and even coat of heat sink grease across the back of the PAD119-1 and also the heat sink where the amplifier is to be mounted. Push the amplifier into the heat sink grease while slightly twisting the amplifier back and forth a few times to bed the amplifier into the heat sink grease. On the final twist align the mounting holes of the amplifier with the mounting holes in the heat sink and finish the mounting using 4-40 X male/female hex spacers. Torque the hardware to 4.7 pound inch [0.53 N m] max. Do not rely on the hardware pressure to squeeze out any excess heat sink grease as this will likely only bend the substrate at the corners. The hex spacers provide adequate spacing between the mother board and the components of the PAD119-1 and also provides some strain relief for the pins. It is recommended that the sockets similar to the PAD model CJS01 be used to mount the amplifier. The sockets provide additional strain relief on the pins and make it possible to remove the amplifier from the mother board. Without the sockets it may be next to impossible to remove the amplifier without damaging the mother board.

DESCRIPTION
The PAD126 high voltage operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications. With a footprint only 80mm square the PAD126 offers outstanding performance that rivals much more expensive hybrid component amplifiers or rack-mount amplifiers. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. The PAD126 also features a substrate temperature reporting output and overtemp shutdown and is also compatible with the PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating substrate mounted to an integrated heat sink and fan assembly. No BeO is used the amplifier. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

A NEW CONCEPT
A critical task in any power amplifier application is cooling the amplifier. Until now component amplifier manufacturers often treated this task as an after-thought, left for the user to figure out. At Power Amp Design the best heat sink and fan combination is chosen at the start and becomes an integral part of the overall amplifier design. The result is the most compact and volumetrically efficient design combination at the lowest cost. In addition, this integrated solution concept offers an achievable real-world power dissipation rating, not the ideal rating usually cited when the amplifier case is somehow kept at 25oC. The user no longer needs to specify, procure or assemble separate components.

NOTES: 1. Unless otherwise noted: TC=25OC, compensation Cc=470pF, DC input specifications are value given, power supply voltage is typical rating. 2. Derate internal power dissipation to achieve high MTBF. 3. Doubles for every 10OC of case temperature increase. 4. Rating applies if the output current alternates between both output transistors at a rate faster than 60Hz. 5. Limited by fan storage characteristics. During operation, even though the case may be at 85OC the fan will be at a lower temperature. 6. L10 refers to the time it takes for 10% of a population of fans to fail. MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure), on the other hand, refers to a 50% failure rate. The MTBF of fans used by Power Amp Design is 210 kHrs at 50C.

SAFETY FIRST
The operating voltages of the PAD126 are potentially deadly. When developing an application circuit it is wise to begin with power supply voltages as low as possible while checking for circuit functionality. Increase supply voltages slowly as confidence in the application circuit increases. Always use a hands off method whereby test equipment probes are attached only when power is off. See application note AN-16 for PCB layout guidelines.
An analog output voltage is provided (pin 6, TMP) relative to ground (pin 8, GND) and proportional to the temperature in degrees C. The slope is approximately -10.82mV/oC. The output voltage follows the equation: T = (2.127 V) (92.42) Where V is the TMP output voltage and T is the substrate temperature in degrees C. This high impedance output circuit is susceptible to capacitive loading and pickup from the output of the amplifier. TMP is internally filtered, but when monitoring TMP the filter as shown in Figure 3 may be useful. See Applications Circuits.
PowerAmp Design
EXTERNAL CIRCUIT COMPONENTS

The output of the PAD126 can swing up to +/- 240V and this may stress or destroy external components that are often not seriously considered when developing circuits with small signal op amps. High voltage rated resistors may be purchased for the feedback circuit or, alternately, several ordinary resistors may be placed in series to obtain the proper voltage rating. The compensation capacitor CC is a NPO type and is rated for 500V. See AN-16 for PCB layout guidelines.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
The temperature monitoring circuit turns off the amplifier when the substrate temperature reaches 110oC. When the substrate cools down 10oC the amplifier is enabled once again. The thermal shutdown feature is activated either by amplifier overloads or a failure of the fan circuit.
COOLING FAN
EXTERNAL SHUTDOWN
When pin 7 ( SD ) goes low (ground) or is forced low the amplifier is turned off and remains off as long as pin 7 is low. When pin 7 is monitored with a high impedance circuit it also functions as a flag, reporting when the amplifier is shut down. A high (+5V) on pin 7 indicates the temperature is in the normal range. A low (ground) indicates a shutdown condition. See Application Circuits (Figure 2) for details. To avoid loading the internal circuit any external circuit must be an open collector or open drain connection.
CURRENT LIMIT
The current limiting function of the PAD126 is a versatile circuit that can be used to implement a four-wire current limit configuration or, in combination with some external components can be configured to implement a fold-over current limit circuit. The four-wire current limit configuration insures that parasitic resistance in the output line, Rp, does not affect the programmed current limit setting. See Figure 1. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.65V. Thus approximately: 0.65V IL = RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor. In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC. The fold-over function reduces the available current as the voltage across the output transistors increases to help insure that the SOA of the output transistors is not exceeded. Refer to Application Circuits for details on how to connect the current limit circuitry to implement either a four-wire current limit or current limit with a fold-over function (Figures 1 and 5).
PHASE COMPENSATION

The amplifier is supplied with four 4-40 M/F hex spacers at the four corners of the amplifier. Once the amplifier is seated, secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by
PAD125 ACCESSORY MODULE

Precision current limiting can be achieved connecting the optional PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module (See Figure 3) that provides a precision 150mV temperature compensated set point for the current limit as well as other programmable features. Please refer to the PAD125 datasheet for details on the operation of the module.

SAFE OPERATING AREA
The safe operating area (SOA) of a power amplifier is its single most important specification. The SOA graph presented above serves as a first approximation to help you decide if the PAD126 will meet the demands of your application. But a more accurate determination can be reached by making use of the PAD Power spreadsheet which can be found in the Power Amp Design website. While the graph above adequately shows DC SOA and some pulse information it does not take into account ambient temperatures higher than 30OC, AC sine, phase or non-symmetric conditions that often appear in real-world applications. The PAD Power spreadsheet takes all of these effects into account.

DESCRIPTION
The PAD127 rail to rail operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications where it is important to obtain a maximum output signal with limited supply voltages. The PAD127 outperforms much more expensive hybrid component amplifiers or rack-mount amplifiers in a footprint only 80mm square. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. Four-wire programmable current limit is built-in, but the PAD127 is compatible with the external PAD121 current limit accessory module as well. The PAD127 also features a substrate temperature reporting analog output and over-temp shutdown. The amplifier circuitry is built on an insulated metal substrate mounted to an integral heat sink and fan assembly. No BeO is used in the PAD127. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

Derate internal power dissipation to achieve high MTBF. 3. Doubles for every 10OC of case temperature increase. 4. Rating applies if the output current alternates between both output transistors at a rate faster than 60Hz. 5. Limited by fan characteristics. During operation, even though the heat sink may be at 85OC or more the fan will be at a lower temperature. 6. L10 refers to the time it takes for 10% of a population of fans to fail. Lower ambient temperature increase fan life. 7. +Vs, +Vcc must be connected together. Vs, Vcc must be connected together.
PAD127
COMMON MODE RANGE

The PAD127 is a rail to rail operational amplifier. This means that it works equally well with the input pins biased to either supply rail or at any voltage in between. The most common application utilizing this function is the single supply voltage amplifier where the +IN pin and the Vs supply pin are grounded.
heat sink remains unobstructed. To eliminate electrical noise created by the cooling fan we recommend a 47F capacitor placed directly at the point where the fan wires connect to the PCB. See application note AN-24 for further details.
PowerAmp Design

The amplifier is supplied with four 4-40 M/F hex spacers at the four corners of the amplifier. Since the male threaded ends of the spacers extend beyond the amplifier pins the spacers provide a convenient alignment tool to guide the insertion of the amplifier pins into the circuit board. Once the amplifier is seated secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by providing a grounded circuit board pad around any of the holes for the mounting studs.
OUTPUT SWING
With no load the output voltage of the PAD127 can swing to either supply voltage rail. As the load current increases the maximum output swing is reduced, but at 10A output the swing from the positive supply rail is less than 1V and less than 1.5V from the negative supply rail. This does not include any voltage drop due to the sensing voltage required for the current limit circuit to operate or voltage drop across the degeneration resistors (see page 5).
CURRENT LIMIT
The current limiting function of the PAD127 is a versatile circuit that can be used to implement a four-wire current limit configuration or, in combination with some external components can be configured to implement a fold-over current limit circuit. The four-wire current limit configuration insures that parasitic resistance in the output line, Rp, does not affect the programmed current limit setting. See Figure 1. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.65V. Thus:
0.65V RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor. IL =
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC. The fold-over function reduces the available current as the voltage across the output transistors increases to help insure that the SOA of the output transistors is not exceeded. Refer to Application Circuits for details on how to connect the current limit circuitry to implement either a four-wire current limit or current limit with a fold-over function. In some applications better current limiting protection and a lower sense voltage may be desired. In this case the PAD127 can be operated with the PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module. See Figure 3 in the applications section and the PAD125 data sheet for more details.

COOLING FAN
The PAD127 relies on its fan for proper cooling of the amplifier. Make sure that air flow to the fan and away from the

OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS CONTINUED
PHASE COMPENSATION
The PAD127 must be phase compensated to operate correctly. The compensation capacitor, CC, is connected between pins 4 and 5. On page 7, Typical Performance Graphs, you will find plots for small signal response and phase response using compensation values of 100pF and 470pF. The compensation capacitor must be an NPO type capacitor rated for the full supply voltage (100V). On page 2, under Amplifier Pinout and Connections, a table gives recommended compensation capacitance values for various gains and the resulting slew rate for each capacitor value.
The following table shows calculated degeneration resistor values (RD) for various total supply voltages (VT). Column (O) shows standard values that can be used from the Vishay/Dale resistor lines RS02B and LVR. These are also the resistor values supplied in the EVAL127 evaluation kit for the PAD127.

PowerAmp Design
DEGENERATION RESISTORS
The PAD127 derives its high power dissipation rating from the use of parallel output MOSFET transistors. To insure that the load current is distributed equally between the output transistors six external source degeneration resistors are needed. See RD1-RD6 in the external connections diagram on page 2. The value of the resistors changes depending on the total supply voltage needed for the application. The SOA power dissipation of the amplifier (225 watts dc) determines the maximum load current that the amplifier can supply with the needed total supply voltage. To insure that the amplifier is not damaged the correct value of degeneration resistors is critical. Do not operate the amplifier without the proper value of degeneration resistors. All of the six degeneration resistors will be the same value and can be calculated by:
Resistors are to be 3 or 5 watt as shown in the table, 1% tolerance and preferably non-inductive as inductive resistors may cause the output stage to oscillate. The resistors available from Power Amp Design are of the inductive wire-wound type but have been found to be adequate for this application. These resistors are also available with noninductive windings but are not usually stocked by distributors. The use of thick film chip resistors is not recommended. Thick film or metal film or powdered metal resistors types are suitable but may be either expensive or unavailable in the required values.

0.75VT 0.035 225
Where RD is the value of each degeneration resistor and VT is the total power supply voltage from +Vs to Vs.

A high (+5V) on pin 26 indicates the temperature is in the normal range. A low (ground) indicates a shutdown condition. See Application Circuits for details on how to implement an external shutdown circuit and how to monitor the shutdown status.

CURRENT LIMIT

The amplifier is supplied with four 4-40 M/F hex spacers at the four corner of the amplifier. Since the male threaded ends of the spacers extend beyond the amplifier pins the spacers provide a convenient alignment tool to guide the insertion of the amplifier pins into the circuit board. Once the amplifier is seated secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by providing a grounded circuit board pad around any of the holes for the mounting studs.
RAIL TO RAIL OPERATION

Rail to rail input and output operation is implemented by adding two additional external power supplies to the amplifier circuit. One power supply is set to be +Vs+10V and is connected to the +Vcc pin. The other additional power supply is set to be Vs-10V and is connected to the Vcc pin. See Figure 3 in Application Circuits. An accessory module, model PAD130, provides a convenient compact power supply for this purpose. See the data sheet for the PAD130. See also application note AN10, The Rail to Rail Advantage.
An analog output voltage is provided (pin 24, TMP) relative to ground (pin 25) and proportional to the temperature in degrees C. The slope is approximately -10.82mV/oC. The output voltage follows the equation: T = (2.127 V) (92.42) Where V is the TMP output voltage and T is the substrate temperature in degrees C. This high impedance output circuit is susceptible to capacitive loading and pickup from the output of the amplifier. When monitoring TMP filter the voltage as shown in Figure 3. See Applications Circuits.

When pin 26 ( SD ) is taken low (ground) the output stage is turned off and remains off as long as pin 26 is low. When pin 26 is monitored with a high impedance circuit it also functions as a flag, reporting when the amplifier is shut down.

DESCRIPTION
The PAD129 high power operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications. With a footprint only 5.6 in2 the PAD129 offers outstanding performance that rivals much more expensive hybrid component amplifiers or rack-mount amplifiers. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. The PAD129 also features a substrate temperature reporting output and overtemp shutdown. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating substrate mounted to an integral heat sink and fan assembly. No BeO is used in the amplifier. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

value. Consult also the small signal response and phase response plots for the selected compensation value in the Typical Performance Graphs section. A compensation capacitor less than 10pF is not recommended.
SAFETY FIRST
The operating voltages of the PAD135 are potentially deadly. When developing an application circuit it is wise to begin with power supply voltages as low as possible while checking for circuit functionality. Increase supply voltages slowly as confidence in the application circuit increases. Always use a hands-off method whereby test equipment probes are attached only when power is off.
SINGLE HIGH-CURRENT SUPPLY OPERATION

It is often desirable to operate the PAD135 with a single high-current power supply as this reduces system cost. Figure 2 in the application circuits section shows one way to do this. However, in this case the input signal should be offset slightly to prevent the output from being driven to ground. When the output swings closer to ground than 10V the output transistor connected to the negative supply must recover from being over-driven. This causes a delay in the output going to a high condition. If the input signal is offset slightly so that the output is not driven to less than 10V this delay is avoided. The resulting output signal will then vary from 10V to 150V. For a circuit gain of +65 the required input signal then becomes 0.156V to 2.344V. For custom applications the PAD135 or PAD135-1 can be ordered with its offset voltage set to produce the same effect. This option is desirable in applications where adjusting the input signal is difficult.

The amplifier is supplied with four 4-40 M/F hex spacers at the four corners of the amplifier. Once the amplifier is seated, secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in oz [3.8 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by providing a grounded circuit board pad around any of the holes for the mounting studs.

In most applications the amplifier must be attached to a heat sink. Spread a thin and even coat of heat sink grease across the back of the PAD135-1 and also the heat sink where the amplifier is to be mounted. Push the amplifier into the heat sink grease on the heat sink while slightly twisting the amplifier back and forth a few times to bed the amplifier into the heat sink grease. On the final twist align the mounting holes of the amplifier with the mounting holes in the heat sink and finish the mounting using 4-40 hex male-female spacers and torque to 4.7 in oz [3.8 N cm] max. Mount the amplifier to the mother board with 4-40 X 1/4 screws. See Dimensional Information for additional recommendations.
PHASE COMPENSATION
The PAD135 must be phase compensated. The compensation capacitor, CC, is connected between pins 2 and 3. The compensation capacitor must be an NPO type capacitor rated for the full supply voltage (200V). On page 2, under Amplifier Pinout and Connections, you will find a table that gives recommended compensation capacitance value for various circuit gains and the resulting slew rate for each capacitor

SAFE OPERATING AREA

The safe operating area (SOA) of a power amplifier is its single most important specification. The SOA graph presented above serves as a first approximation to help you decide if the PAD135 will meet the demands of your application. But a more accurate determination can be reached by making use of the PAD Power spreadsheet which can be found in the website. While the graph above adequately shows DC SOA and some pulse information it does not take into account ambient temperatures higher than 30OC, AC sine, phase or non-symmetric conditions that often appear in real-world applications. The PAD Power spreadsheet takes all of these effects into account.

DESCRIPTION
The PAD137 high power operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications. With a footprint only 5.6 in2 the PAD137 offers outstanding performance that rivals much more expensive hybrid component amplifiers or rack-mount amplifiers. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. The PAD137 also features a substrate temperature reporting output and overtemperature shutdown. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating substrate mounted to an integrated heat sink and fan assembly. No BeO is used in the amplifier. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

NOTES: 1. Unless otherwise noted: TC=25OC, compensation Cc=470pF, DC input specifications are value given, power supply voltage is typical rating. 2. Derate internal power dissipation to achieve high MTBF. 3. Doubles for every 10OC of case temperature increase. 4. Rating applies if the output current alternates between both output transistors at a rate faster than 60Hz. 5. Limited by fan characteristics. During operation, even though the heat sink may be at 85OC or more the fan will be at a lower temperature. 6. L10 refers to the time it takes for 10% of a population of fans to fail. Lower ambient temperature increase fan life.
PAD137
COMMON MODE RANGE

The PAD137 is a rail to rail operational amplifier. This means that it works equally well with the input pins biased to either supply rail or at any voltage in between. The most common application utilizing this function is the single supply voltage amplifier where the +IN pin and the Vs supply pin are grounded.
This high impedance output circuit is may be susceptible to capacitive loading and pickup from the output of the amplifier. It is filtered internally but some application circuits may need additional external filtering as shown in Figure 3. See Applications Circuits.
PowerAmp Design
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
OUTPUT SWING
With no load the output voltage of the PAD137 can swing to either supply voltage rail. As the load current increases the maximum output swing is reduced, but at 20A output the swing from the positive supply rail is less than 1V and less than 1.5V from the negative supply rail. This does not include any voltage drop due to the sensing voltage required for the current limit circuit to operate.
EXTERNAL SHUTDOWN
When pin 26 ( SD ) is taken low (ground) the output stage is turned off and remains off as long as pin 26 is low. When pin 26 is monitored with a high impedance circuit it also functions as a flag, reporting when the amplifier is shut down. A high (+5V) on pin 26 indicates the temperature is in the normal range. A low (ground) indicates a shutdown condition. See Figure 1, Application Circuits for details on how to implement an external shutdown circuit and how to monitor the shutdown status .
COOLING FAN
CURRENT LIMIT
The PAD137 does not have a current limiting circuit built in. However, a Current Limit Accessory Module, model PAD125, is available if the current limiting function is needed for the application. See the PAD125 datasheet and Figure 2, Application Circuits for a typical connection diagram.
PHASE COMPENSATION

The amplifier is supplied with four 4-40 M/F hex spacers at the four corners of the amplifier. Since the male threaded ends of the spacers extend beyond the amplifier pins the spacers provide a convenient alignment tool to guide the insertion of the amplifier pins into the circuit board. Once the amplifier is seated secure the module with the provided 4-40 nuts and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. See Dimensional Information for a detailed drawing. It is recommended that the heat sink be grounded to the system ground. This can easily be done by providing a grounded circuit board pad around any of the holes for the mounting studs.
An analog output voltage is provided (pin 24, TMP) relative to ground and proportional to the temperature in degrees C. The slope is approximately -10.82mV/oC. The output voltage follows the equation: T = (2.127 V) (92.42) Where V is the TMP output voltage and T is the substrate temperature in degrees C.

response plots for the selected compensation value in the Typical Performance Graphs section. A compensation capacitor less than 10pF is not recommended.
SAFETY FIRST
The operating voltages of the PAD183 are potentially deadly. When developing an application circuit it is wise to begin with power supply voltages as low as possible while checking for circuit functionality. Increase supply voltages slowly as confidence in the application circuit increases. Always use a hands-off method whereby test equipment probes are attached only when power is off.
COOLING FAN


In most applications the amplifier must be attached to a heat sink. Spread a thin and even coat of heat sink grease across the back of the PAD183-1 and also the heat sink where the amplifier is to be mounted. Push the amplifier into the heat sink grease on the heat sink while slightly twisting the amplifier back and forth several times to bed the amplifier into the heat sink grease. On the final twist align the mounting holes of the amplifier with the mounting holes in the heat sink and finish the mounting using 4-40 hex male-female spacers and torque to 4.7 in lb [53 N cm] max. Mount the amplifier to the mother board with 4-40 X 1/4 screws. See Dimensional Information for additional recommendations.
PHASE COMPENSATION
The PAD183 must be phase compensated. The compensation capacitor, CC, is connected between pins 2 and 3. The compensation capacitor must be an NPO type capacitor rated for the full supply voltage (350V). On page 2, under Amplifier Pinout and Connections, you will find a table that gives recommended compensation capacitance values for various circuit gains and the resulting slew rate for each capacitor value.

The SOA graph presented above serves as a first approximation to help you decide if the PAD183 will meet the demands of your application. But a more accurate determination can be reached by making use of the PAD Power spreadsheet which can be downloaded from the website. While the graph above adequately shows DC SOA and some pulse information it does not take into account ambient temperatures higher than 30OC, AC sine, phase or non-symmetric conditions that often appear in real-world applications. The PAD Power spreadsheet takes all of these effects into account.

DESCRIPTION
The PAD541 compact operational amplifier is constructed with surface mount components to provide a cost effective solution for many industrial applications. The SIP design is only 0.63 high and provides clearance for those applications where circuit boards are mounted side by side in a card cage. The PAD541 exceeds the performance of monolithic amplifiers while having a similar height dimension. User selectable external compensation tailors the amplifiers response to the application requirements. Programmable current limit is built-in. The amplifier circuitry is built on a thermally conductive but electrically insulating substrate. No BeO is used in the PAD541. The resulting module is a small, high performance turn-key solution for many industrial applications.

CURRENT LIMIT
The current limiting function of the PAD541 is externally programmable. See Figure 1. The sense voltage for current limit is 0.65V. Thus: 0.65V IL RS Where IL is the value of the limited current and RS is the value of the current limit sense resistor. In addition, the sense voltage has a temperature coefficient approximately equal to 2.2mV/oC case temperature.

In most applications the amplifier must be attached to a heat sink. Spread a thin and even coat of heat sink grease across the back of the PAD541 and also the heat sink where the amplifier is to be mounted. Push the amplifier into the heat sink grease on the heat sink while slightly twisting the amplifier back and forth a few times to bed the amplifier into the heat sink grease. On the final twist align the mounting holes of the amplifier with the mounting holes in the heat sink and finish the mounting using 2-56 screw and a #2 stainless steel internal tooth lock washer. The lock washer helps to electrically connect the substrate to the heat sink (that should be grounded). Torque the screws to 2.2 in-pound (0.248 N meter) maximum. Do not rely on the screw pressure to squeeze out any excess heat sink grease as this will likely only bend the substrate at the

PAD125 CURRENT LIMIT ACCESSORY MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The PAD125 current limit accessory module was designed to extend the protection circuitry for high power amplifiers and avoid current limit induced oscillations that often occur in high output current amplifiers. To keep power dissipation in the current sense resistor to a minimum the PAD125 operates with a precision 150mV floating sense input and converts the floating sense inputs to ground referenced 5V logic signals. Traditional current limit circuitry does not guarantee that the amplifier will survive over-current conditions. The PAD125 can operate in several modes. It can latch off the host amplifier when an over-current condition exists immediately or after an externally set time delay set by a simple RC circuit. The circuit can also auto-reset with another RC circuit time delay. In addition the host amplifier can be shut down or reset from system logic inputs.

PAD125
COMMON MODE RANGE

The sense voltage inputs of the PAD125 (+IL, -IL, ISC) float with the output of the host amplifier (PAD119, for example) and can swing within 5V of either supply rail
OPERATING MODES
It is possible to operate the PAD125 in several modes without the need for any external logic circuits by using a few external passive components. For each of the operating modes see Figure 3 in Application Circuits. In Mode 1 (Figure 3a) the STATUS output is tied directly to SD. When the output current of the host amplifier exceeds the trip point, OUT immediately goes low and latches off the output stage of the host amplifier. To restart the host amplifier a high on the RESET pin is required. In Mode 2 (Figure 3b) the STATUS output is tied to the SD input through a RC circuit (R1, C1). The RC circuit provides a time delay. This is useful when, for example, it is known that the host amplifier output current will exceed the set point current for a short time and still not exceed the SOA of the amplifier. This might occur when starting a motor, for example. The time delay can be calculated by: T=RC Where T is the time delay, R is the resistance in ohms and C is the capacitance in farads. The minimum resistor value is 100k and the maximum C value is 2.2nF. In Mode 3 (Figure 3c) an auto-reset can be applied by adding R2, C2 to the RESET input. This time delay must be greater than R1, C1 but operates in the same way and is calculated in the same way. Mode 3 can be used with Mode 1 if desired. In this mode if the over-current condition still exits after the reset time delay the PAD125 will keep the host amplifier shut down indefinitely. The circuit can be restarted by cycling the power or over-driving the reset input with a momentary external 5V pulse. Note that any unused input pins must be grounded (pins 1 or 3).
PowerAmp Design
SENSE VOLTAGE
The output (OUT, pin 2) is set to trip (go low) when: IS-ISC > 150mV or ISC-IS > 150mV Where IS represents +IL and -IL tied together for normal operation. +IL and -IL can be separated for fold-over current limiting. For fold-over current limit operation OUT is set to trip when: (+IL)-ISC> 150mV or ISC-(-IL) > 150mV This 150mV reference is generated internally and cannot be changed by the user. In all cases the circuit is tripped when: Io > 150mV/Rs where Io is the host amplifier output current and Rs is the current limit sense resistor value.
OUTPUT
The output (OUT, pin 2) is an open collector circuit and is intended to be tied to the host amplifier SD input. The SD input of the host amplifier has an internal pull-up circuit so if OUT is used without the host amplifier an external 10k pull-up resistor will be required.
STATUS OUTPUT
STATUS, pin 4, is the output that alerts external circuitry that the current set point has been exceeded and goes high (5V logic) when this occurs. In various modes of operation STATUS is connected to the shutdown input (SD) and/or RESET. See Applications Circuits for illustrations on how to use the several modes of operation.
EVALUATION KITS
Connections for the PAD125 are incorporated into the printed circuit boards included with evaluation kits for compatible amplifier models. Either standard or fold-over current limit can be implemented. Bread-boarding pads are provided to connect the PAD125 in any of the operating modes discussed above. PAD Power is a free Excel based spreadsheet available on the Power Amp Design website that will assist in calculating values needed to implement the fold-over current limit as well as analyzing many other design issues when using Power Amp Design products.
SD AND RESET INPUTS

The SD (shutdown) and RESET inputs can be operated from system logic signals as required. These are 5V logic inputs. If not used these inputs are required to be tied to ground or pulled down by 10k. If these inputs are operated from an open collector circuit an external pull-up resistor is required. Do not confuse the SD input of the PAD125 with the SD input of the host amplifier.

DESCRIPTION
The PAD130 power supply accessory module is a compact dual switching power supply designed to provide a convenient, low-cost power supply that converts the PAD128 High Power Operational Amplifier into a RRIO amplifier (rail to rail input and rail to rail output). With input voltages of +Vs and Vs the PAD130 produces output voltages of +Vs+9 and Vs9 volts. The output voltages are connected to the PAD128 +Vcc and Vcc power supply pins. Consequently, the small signal stages of the PAD128 operate at higher voltages than the main power supply voltages, thus biasing the small signal stages such that RRIO operation is assured. The PAD130 comes mounted to a heat sink for drop-in operation.

PAD130
POWER SUPPLY INPUTS

The PAD130 is normally powered by the same voltages used to power the host amplifier. The PAD130 has its own input and output filter capacitors and so no additional bypassing is necessary. A current input ripple can be observed approximately twice the output load current at a duty cycle of 50%. The PAD130 can be operated from a single power supply voltage, for example, zero (ground) and +50V. In this case the output voltages will be approximately -9V and +58.5V.
PowerAmp Design
OUTPUT VOLTAGES
The PAD130 output voltages are approximately 9V greater than the input power supply voltages. These voltages are tied to the Vcc inputs for the host operational amplifier (see Fig. 2) on page 2. The output voltages have some ripple at approximately 20 kHz. The host amplifiers power supply rejection is able to reject most of the ripple amplitude but about 1 mVp-p (RTI) of residual ripple may be found at the output of the amplifier. The ripple can be reduced by adding external filter capacitors, but this is usually unnecessary.
EVALUATION KITS
Connections for the PAD130 are incorporated into the printed circuit boards included with the evaluation kits for compatible amplifiers such as the PAD128 (evaluation kit EVAL128).

DESCRIPTION
PAD131 FAN CONTROLLER MODULE
The PAD131 fan controller module works with all power op amps offered by Power Amp Design and may be added to the application circuit at any time. The module was designed to extend fan life and reduce audible fan noise for those power amplifier applications where maximum cooling is not required. The PAD131 monitors the substrate temperature output of the host power amplifier and adjusts its cooling fan rpm to keep the heat sink temperature to 65OC or less where possible. Many power amplifier applications either do not require maximum cooling or the application makes intermittent high power demands. When the temperature rises above 65OC the module drives the cooling fan at maximum RPM for maximum cooling and throttles back the rpm as the temperature falls. The number one failure mechanism in fans is bearing wear. Lower fan rpm translates into less wear on the bearings and less audible noise.

PAD131
FAN CONTROLLER FUNCTION

Not all power amplifier applications require maximum cooling of the amplifier. An amplifier capable of dissipating 100W, for example, might not be required to dissipate more than 50W or even less in its application circuit. Yet, in either case the cooling fan will be operating at maximum rpm. Maximum fan rpm will keep the amplifier at the lowest operating temperature, but this may not be necessary even when considering amplifier reliability. Overall reliability also must consider the cooling fan. The leading cause of fan failures is bearing wear. Even though the L10 rating of the fans supplied with all of our amplifiers is 45k hours some applications may benefit from an even longer life. The PAD131 monitors the analog output (TMP) of host amplifier and adjusts the rpm of the fan accordingly. As the substrate temperature of the host amplifier rises, the rpm of cooling fan increases and decreases the operating temperature of the host amplifier. As the operating temperature of the host amplifier rises to 65C, the PAD131 will increase the rpm of the cooling fan from minimum (perhaps off) to maximum. When the operating temperature of the host amplifier reaches 65C or above maximum cooling is applied to the amplifier. Any operating condition that allows the amplifier to operate at a temperature lower than 65C can benefit from the PAD131 Fan Controller Module. At lower operating temperatures the rpm of the fan decreases thus extending its life by reducing bearing wear. At the same time, lower fan rpm results in less audible fan noise. Applications that require less than maximum cooling such as applications where higher power dissipation in the amplifier is intermittent will benefit the most. The operating temperature of the host amplifier can be predicted using the PAD Power Excel based design spreadsheet available on the Power Amp Design web site.

SUPPLY APPLICATIONS
DESCRIPTION
The PAD132 power supply accessory module is a compact dual switching power supply designed to provide a convenient, low-cost power supply that assists power amps to operate from a single highpower supply voltage. The PAD132 is compatible with the PAD115, PAD119 and PAD129 High Power Operational Amplifiers. With input voltages of +Vs and Vs the PAD132 produces output voltages of +Vs+9 and Vs9 volts. The output voltages are connected to the amplifiers +Vcc and Vcc power supply pins. Consequently, the small signal stages of the amplifier operate at higher voltages than the main power supply voltages, thus biasing the small signal stages such that single supply operation is assured by avoiding input stage common mode range violations. The PAD132 comes mounted to a heat sink for drop-in operation.

PAD132
POWER SUPPLY INPUTS

The PAD132 is normally powered by the same voltages used to power the host amplifier. The PAD132 has its own input and output filter capacitors and so no additional bypassing is necessary. A current input ripple can be observed approximately twice the output load current at a duty cycle of 50%. The PAD132 can be operated from a single power supply voltage, for example, zero (ground) and +200V. In this case the output voltages will be approximately -9V and +209V.
PowerAmp Design
OUTPUT VOLTAGES
The PAD132 output voltages are approximately 9V greater than the input power supply voltages. These voltages are tied to the Vcc inputs for the host operational amplifier (see Fig. 2) on page 2. The output voltages have some ripple at approximately 25 kHz. The host amplifiers power supply rejection is able to reject most of the ripple amplitude but about 1 mVp-p (RTI) of residual ripple may be found at the output of the amplifier. The ripple can be reduced by adding external filter capacitors, but this is usually unnecessary.

+VCC OUTPUT RIPPLE The oscilloscope display at the left shows the PAD132 +Vcc output voltage ripple. The ripple can be reduced by adding an external filtering capacitor, but the amplifier rejects a large portion of this ripple.
-VCC OUTPUT RIPPLE The oscilloscope display at the right shows the PAD132 -Vcc output voltage ripple. The ripple can be reduced by adding an external filtering capacitor, but the amplifier rejects a large portion of this ripple. See below.
AMPLIFIER OUTPUT RIPPLE WITH PAD132 POWER SUPPLY The oscilloscope display at the left shows the PAD119 amplifier output voltage ripple due to the PAD132 power supply ripple with the amplifier in a gain of 10. The ripple is about 10mVp-p in a gain of 10. Referred to the input the ripple is about 1mVp-p. The ripple can be reduced by adding external filtering capacitors, but the amplifier rejects a large portion of this ripple as can be seen by comparing this amplifier output ripple to the power supply output ripple as seen in the oscilloscope displays above.

EVALUATION KIT FOR PAD20
INTRODUCTION
The EVAL20 evaluation kit provides a convenient method to become familiar with the operation of the PAD20 operational amplifier before your application circuit is committed to production. Some assembly is required since user selections are needed depending on the application. For example, a current limit resistor value needs to be selected by the user. Also, there are several PCB mounting options available. Critical connections for power supply bypassing and compensation are pre-wired. Fold-over current limit components are not provided since each application will have different requirements. Connections are also provided for diode clamps on each power supply and the output for those applications in which significant inductive kickback may be found. Terminal strips are also provided for input and output signals and power. Sockets are also provided for the optional PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module as well as the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module. Assembled EVAL20 with PAD20 installed. Optional PAD131 and PAD125 also installed. datasheet for the PAD20 for complete information on current limit options. Jumpers for option 1 are already installed. Remove and replace the jumpers as needed for the option you have chosen. 4.* Six current limiting sense resistors, RS, are provided, Two 0.47 , one 1.0 and one 2.0 are useful for the built-in current limit circuit. The 30m and 50m resistors are useful for the external PAD125 current limit circuit. There are four locations on the PCB for these resistors. The PCB ties all four of the locations in parallel. The resistors can be used individually at any location or several can be used to fine tune the final value desired. See the datasheet for the PAD20 and PAD125 to determine the best value for your application. Solder the resistor(s) from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. 5. D3 and D5 are transient voltage suppressor diodes and are not supplied since the type (breakdown voltage) varies with the application. They are not necessary for every application. They are most commonly used in application circuits where kickback from the load may force the supply voltage above the limits of the amplifier. 6. The evaluation kit PCB can be mounted in several ways. Option 1- Chassis mount. Use #6 standoffs and screws (not supplied) attached to the PCB at the four corners of the PCB. Option 2- Bench-top mount. Use the rubber bumpers supplied. These are stick-on components. Remove the release paper from each bumper and apply the bumper to the square outlines on the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Option 3- DIN rail mount. The PCB can be mounted to a 35mm DIN rail. For mounting the PCB to a DIN rail press the adaptors into the PCB in the holes at the edges of the PCB at locations 1 and 2 from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Make sure that the plastic tines have fully spread out on the DUT SIDE of the PCB.

ASSEMBLY STEPS
Please note that the #1 cause of problems for evaluation kit users is not reading and following the directions (all of them). The #2 cause of problems is poor solder joints (cold or each step. bridging). Dont become a statistic. Refer to the Illustrated Parts List for the components mentioned in the assembly steps. Note that some heavy PCB copper planes and some heavy component leads are soldered in this kit. This may require a larger soldering iron tip and/or higher soldering iron temperatures than might normally be used. These steps are marked with an asterisk (*). 1. Notice that the printed circuit board (PCB) is labeled on one side as the DUT SIDE and the other side as CIRCUIT side. 2. As shown in the illustrated parts list, cage jack strips were used in the assembly of this kit. The carrier strips left over from the assembly have been included with the kit and can be cut to length and used as sockets for the components you will use to complete your application circuit. You can solder these sockets at the input locations for the PAD20 and other locations as desired. This can save soldering and unsoldering components as the needs of your application circuit change. 3. Refer to Jumper Selection below the Circuit Diagram for the EVAL20 on page 4. Install the required jumpers at the locations indicated depending on the option you have chosen. Jumpers of various lengths are included in this kit. Refer to the

7. Components for locations R1-R7, D1, D2 are for the optional fold-over current limiting and are not supplied. Refer to the datasheet of the amplifier model to find out how to apply circuits that require these components. 8. Remove the 4 hex nuts from the mounting spacers of the amplifier. 9. Align the 4 studs of the mounting spacers with the mounting holes in the PCB. Be sure that the amplifiers pin 1 aligns with pin 1 on the PCB. Slowly lower the amplifier into the PCB, making sure that the pins of the amplifier and the cage jacks mate. Push the amplifier into the PCB until the mounting spacers meet the PCB. 10. Fasten the amplifier to the PCB with the 4 hex nuts previously removed. Do not over-tighten the nuts as this may strip the mounting studs. The provided plastic nut starter can assist you here. 11. If necessary, strip 1/8 of insulation from the wires connected to the fan. Twist and tin the wire ends. Insert the red wire into the cage jack labeled + and the black or blue wire into the jack marked at the location marked FAN. Or, if you plan to use the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module, insert the fan wires similarly into the + and cage jacks at the location marked Fan Control. Do not solder the fan wires into the PCB. 12. Use the bread-boarding area to add the external components necessary to program the amplifier gain and other circuit requirements to evaluate your application circuit. You can use the evaluation kit schematic and PCB views to map out your circuit. 13. Remember that the amplifier must be compensated to operate correctly. See the amplifier datasheet on Page 4, under PHASE COMPENSATION. The selected phase compensation capacitor will be installed at CC on the evaluation kit PCB. A 470pF capacitor has already been installed in your kit. Another value may better suit your application. Remove and replace the capacitor as necessary for your application. 47pF, 68pF and 220pF capacitors are also included with the kit. CC must be rated for at least 200V. A temperature stable type capacitor is requiredan X7R ceramic, for example, or NPO (COG) type. 14. If you have chosen to use the PAD125 Current Limit Accessory module and/or the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module install them at this time making sure that pin 1 on each module is aligned with the pin 1 marking on the PCB. Note that the PCB location for the PAD125 may be marked as PAD123 as the PAD125 replaces the PAD123. Additional programming of the PAD125 will be necessary. See the PAD125 datasheet for full details. 15. The evaluation kit assembly is complete. Be sure you have read and followed all the assembly steps. Do not forget any jumpers that need to be installed. Inspect the circuit board for solder shorts or poor solder joints. An illuminated magnifier is helpful.

ASSEMBLY STEPS CONTINUED
16. Before applying power to your circuit set the power supply for 20V and set the power supply current limit to approximately 100mA. Use little or no load at first. Apply an input signal and check the output with an oscilloscope to verify proper functionality. This step can prevent damaging the amplifier or the circuit board should there be some mistake in assembly.

EVALUATION KIT FOR PAD116/117
INTRODUCTION
The EVAL117 evaluation kit provides a convenient method to become familiar with the operation of the PAD116 or PAD117 operational amplifiers before your application circuit is committed to production. Some assembly is required since user selections are needed depending on the application. For example, a current limit resistor value needs to be selected by the user. Also, there are several PCB mounting options available. Critical connections for power supply bypassing and compensation are pre-wired. Fold-over current limit components are not provided since each application will have different requirements. Connections are also provided for diode clamps on each power supply and the output for those applications in which significant inductive kickback may be found. Terminal strips are also provided for input and output signals and power.

PowerAmp Design EVAL117 EVALUATION KIT FOR PAD116/117
Assembled EVAL117 with PAD116/117 mounted. Shown with optional PAD121, PAD131 and DIN rail mounting. you have chosen. Refer to the data sheet for the PAD121 for complete information on current limit options 4.* This step may require a soldering temperature higher than normal and/or a larger soldering iron tip. Four current limiting sense resistors, RS, are provided; one 0.01 , one 0.015 (use one of these two with PAD121), one 0.05 and one 0.10 . Refer to the data sheets for the PAD116/117 and PAD121 to determine which resistor value best fits your application. Smear a small amount of heat sink grease on the back of the selected resistor and then attach the resistor loosely to heat sink HS1 at RS with a 4-40 X screw and nut. The plastic nut driver supplied with this kit will help here. Tighten the 4-40 resistor mounting hardware. Solder the resistor from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB making sure that the holes are completely filled with solder. 5. D3 and D5 are transient voltage suppressor diodes and are not supplied since the type (breakdown voltage) varies with the application. They are not necessary for every application. They are most commonly used in application circuits where kickback from the load may force the supply voltage above the limits of the amplifier. 6. The evaluation kit PCB can be mounted in several ways. Option 1- Chassis mount. Use #6 x 1/4 M/F hex standoffs, and #6 nut (neither supplied) attached to the PCB at the four corners and center of the PCB and the chassis. Option 2- Bench-top mount. Use the five rubber bumpers supplied. These are stick-on components. Remove the release paper from each bumper and apply the bumper to the square outlines on the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Option 3- DIN rail mount. The PCB can be mounted to either 1 or 2 DIN rails. For mounting the PCB to one DIN rail press the adaptors into the PCB in the holes at the edges of the PCB at locations 1 and 2 from the CIRCUIT SIDE
ASSEMBLY STEPS
Please note that the #1 cause of problems for evaluation kit users is not reading and following the directions (all of them). The #2 cause of problems is poor solder joints (cold or each step. bridging). Dont become a statistic. Refer to the Illustrated Parts List for the components mentioned in the assembly steps. Note that some heavy PCB copper planes and some heavy component leads are soldered in this kit. This may require a larger soldering iron tip and/or higher soldering iron temperatures than might normally be used. These steps are marked with an asterisk (*). Note that PCB is marked for the PAD117 but is also used for the PAD116. 1. Notice that the printed circuit board (PCB) is labeled on one side as the DUT SIDE and the other side as CIRCUIT side. 2. As shown in the illustrated parts list, cage jack strips were used to provide you with the assembled kit. The carrier strips left over from the assembly have been included with the kit and can be used as sockets for the components you will use to complete your application circuit. If desired you can cut and solder these sockets at the input locations for the PAD116/117, PAD121 and other locations as desired. This can save soldering and unsoldering components as the needs of your application circuit change. 3. Refer to Jumper Selection below the Circuit Diagram for the EVAL116/117 on page 4. Read all the options for the jumpers you will need installed or removed. Note that the kit comes wired with option 1. Install or remove jumpers as required at the locations indicated depending on the option

of the PCB. Make sure that the plastic tines have fully spread out on the DUT SIDE of the PCB. If mounting to 2 DIN rails is desired, mount DIN rail adaptors at locations 3, 4, 5 and 6 in a similar manner. The center to center dimension of the DIN rails is to be 2.00 [50.8mm]. 7. Components for locations R1-R7, D1, D2 are for the optional fold-over current limiting and are not supplied. Refer to the data sheet of the PAD116/117 to find out how to apply circuits that require these components. 8. Remove the 4 hex nuts from the mounting spacers of the PAD116/117. 9. Align the 4 studs of the mounting standoffs with the mounting holes in the PCB. Be sure that the amplifiers pin 1 aligns with the pin 1 marking on the PCB. Slowly lower the amplifier into the PCB, making sure that the pins of the amplifier and the cage jacks mate. Push the amplifier into the PCB until the mounting spacers meet the PCB. 10. Fasten the amplifier to the PCB with the 4 hex nuts previously removed. Do not over-tighten the nuts as this may strip the mounting studs. The provided plastic nut starter can assist you here. 11. Strip 1/8 of insulation from the wires connected to the fan. Twist and tin the wire ends. Insert the red wire into the cage jack labeled + and the black or blue wire into the jack marked at the location marked FAN. Or, if you plan to use the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module, insert the fan wires similarly into the + and cage jacks at the location marked Fan Control. Do not solder the fan wires into the PCB. 12. Add components as necessary to evaluate your application circuit. You can utilize the evaluation kit schematic and PCB views to map out your circuit and components. Remember, if you are using the PAD121 Current Limit Accessory Module additional components or jumpers will be needed to program the operation of the module. See the PAD121 data sheet. 13. Remember that the PAD116/117 must be compensated to operate correctly. See the PAD116/117 datasheet on Page 4, under PHASE COMPENSATION. The selected phase compensation capacitor will be installed at CC on the evaluation kit PCB. A 470pF capacitor has already been installed in your kit. Another value may better suit your application. Remove and replace the capacitor as necessary for your application. A 100pF capacitor is also included with the kit. CC must be rated for at least 100V. A temperature stable type capacitor is requiredan X7R ceramic, for example, or an NPO type. 14. If you have chosen to use the PAD121 accessory module install it at this time making sure that pin 1 on the module is aligned with the pin 1 marking on the PCB. 15. If you have chosen to use the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module install it at this time making sure that pin 1
on the module is aligned with the pin 1 marking on the PCB. Double check that the wires from the fan are inserted into the jacks marked Fan Control. 16. The evaluation kit assembly is complete. Be sure you have read and followed all the assembly steps. Do not forget any jumpers that need to be installed or removed. Inspect the circuit board for solder shorts or poor solder joints. An illuminated magnifier is helpful. 17. Before applying power to your circuit set the power supply for 20V and set the power supply current limit to approximately 100mA. Use little or no load at first. Apply an input signal and check the output with an oscilloscope to verify proper functionality. This step can prevent damaging the amplifier or the circuit board should there be some mistake in assembly.

A table is provided relating the required compensation capacitor value for various circuit gains. Your selected phase compensation capacitor will be installed at CC on the evaluation kit PCB. A 100pF compensation capacitor has already been installed in the kit, but this value may not be the best value for your application. 33pF and 470pF capacitors are also provided. Remove and replace the capacitor
EVAL126
as necessary. The compensation capacitor must be rated for the total supply voltage (500V) and be temperature stable (X7R or NPO). 14. If you have chosen to use the PAD125 and/or PAD131 accessory module(s) install the module(s) at this time making sure that pin 1 of each module is aligned with the pin 1 markings on the PCB. 15. The evaluation kit assembly is complete. Be sure you have read and followed all the assembly steps. Do not forget any jumpers that need to be installed. Inspect the circuit board for solder shorts or poor solder joints. An illuminated magnifier is helpful. 16. Before applying power to your circuit set the power supply for 20V and set the power supply current limit to approximately 100mA. Use little or no load at first. Apply an input signal and check the output with an oscilloscope to verify proper functionality. This step can prevent damaging the amplifier or the circuit board should there be some mistake in assembly.

INTRODUCTION
The EVAL127 assembled evaluation kit provides a convenient method to become familiar with the operation of the PAD127 operational amplifier before your application circuit is committed to production. Some assembly is required since some user selections are needed depending on the application. For example, a current limit resistor value needs to be selected by the user. Also, there are several PCB mounting options available. The amplifier and accessory modules are purchased separately. Critical connections for power supply bypassing and compensation are pre-wired. Connections are also provided for implementing fold-over current limit as well as standard current limit with the optional PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Module. Fold-over current limit components are not provided since each application will have different requirements. Diode clamps on each power supply and the output connections are provided for those applications in which significant inductive kickback may be found. Terminal strips are also provided for input and output signals and power.

Assembled EVAL127 with PAD127 mounted. Optional PAD125 and PAD131 also shown. 4.* This step may require a soldering temperature higher than normal and/or a larger soldering iron tip. Four current limiting sense resistors, RS, are provided; one 0.005, one 0.010, one 0.050 and one 0.100. Refer to the datasheets for the PAD127 and PAD125 to determine which resistor value best fits your application. Smear a small amount of heat sink grease on the back of the selected resistor and then attach the resistor to the heat sink HS1 at RS with a 4-40 X screw and nut. The plastic nut driver supplied with this kit will help here. Tighten the 4-40 resistor mounting hardware. Solder the resistor from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB making sure that the holes are completely filled with solder. 5.* Refer the page 5 of the datasheet for the PAD127 to select a value for the six degeneration resistors RD1-RD6. Values supplied with this kit are listed in the illustrated parts list. Install RD1-RD6 from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB, leaving a small gap between the body of the resistors and the circuit board, and solder from the DUT SIDE of the PCB,. Cut off the excess resistor lead lengths. Make doubly sure that all the degeneration resistors are the same value and the proper value for your application. 6. D3 and D5 are transient voltage suppressor diodes and are not supplied since the type (breakdown voltage) varies with the application. They are not necessary for every application. They are most commonly used in application circuits where kickback from the load may force the supply voltage above the limits of the amplifier.
ASSEMBLY STEPS
Please note that the #1 cause of problems for evaluation kit users is not reading and following the directions (all of them). The #2 cause of problems is poor solder joints (cold or each step. bridging). Dont become a statistic. Refer to the Illustrated Parts List for the components mentioned in each assembly step. Some steps may require a soldering temperature higher than normal and/or a larger soldering iron tip. These steps are marked with an *. 1. Notice that the printed circuit board (PCB) is labeled on one side as the DUT SIDE and the other side as CIRCUIT SIDE. 2. As shown in the illustrated parts list, cage jack strips were used to provide you with the assembled version of this evaluation kit. The carrier strips left over from the assembly have been included with the kit and can be used as sockets for the components you will use to complete your application circuit. If desired you can cut and solder these sockets at the input locations for the PAD127 and PAD125 (the PCB may be marked as PAD121) and other locations as desired. This can save soldering and unsoldering components as the needs of your application circuit change. 3. Refer to Jumper Selection below the Circuit Diagram for the EVAL127 on page 4. Install the required jumpers at the locations indicated depending on the options you have chosen. Refer to the data sheet for the PAD125 for complete information on current limit options.

7. The evaluation kit PCB can be mounted in several ways. Option 1- Chassis mount. Use #6 x 1/4 M/F hex standoffs, #6 X screw and #6 nut (not supplied) attached to the PCB at the four corners of the PCB and the chassis. Use one of the rubber bumpers supplied at the indicated place at the center of the amplifier on the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Option 2- Bench-top mount. Use the five rubber bumpers supplied. These are stick-on components. Remove the release paper from each bumper and apply the bumper to the square outlines on the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Option 3- DIN rail mount. The PCB can be mounted on two DIN rails. Press the plastic DIN rail adaptors into the PCB in the holes at the edges of the PCB at locations 1through 4 from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Make sure that the plastic tines have fully spread out on the DUT SIDE of the PCB. The center to center dimension of the DIN rails is to be 4.30 [109.2mm]. 8. Components for locations R1-R7, D1, D2 are for the optional fold-over current limiting and are not supplied. Refer to the data sheet of the PAD127 to find out how to apply circuits that require these components. 9. Remove the 4 hex nuts from the mounting spacers of the PAD127. 10. Align the 4 studs of the mounting spacers with the mounting holes in the PCB. Be sure that the amplifiers pin 1 aligns with pin 1 on the PCB. Slowly lower the amplifier into the PCB, making sure that the pins of the amplifier and the cage jacks mate. Push the amplifier into the PCB until the mounting spacers meet the PCB. 11. Fasten the amplifier to the PCB with the 4 hex nuts previously removed. Do not over-tighten the nuts as this may strip the mounting studs. The provided plastic nut starter can assist you here. 12. Strip 1/8 of insulation from the wires connected to the fan. Twist and tin the wire ends (this may already be done). Insert the red wire into the cage jack labeled + and the black or blue wire into the jack marked at the location marked FAN. Or, if you plan to use the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module, insert the fan wires similarly into the + and cage jacks at the location marked Fan Control. Do not solder the fan wires into the sockets. 13. Add components as necessary to evaluate your application circuit. You can utilize the evaluation kit schematic and PCB views to map out your circuit and components. Remember, if you are using the PAD125 (PAD125 replaces the PAD121) Current Limit Accessory Module additional components will be needed to program the operation of the module. See the PAD125 datasheet. 14. The PAD127 must be compensated to operate correctly. See EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS DIAGRAM on page 2 of the datasheet for the PAD127. A table is provided relating the
required compensation capacitor value for various circuit gains. Your selected phase compensation capacitor will be installed at CC on the evaluation kit PCB. A 470 pF compensation capacitor has already been installed in the kit, but this value may not be the best value for your application. A 100pF capacitor is also provided. Remove and replace the capacitor as necessary. 15. If you have chosen to use the PAD125 accessory module install it at this time making sure that pin 1 on the module is aligned with the pin 1 marking on the PCB. 16. If you have chosen to use the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module install it at this time making sure that pin 1 on the module is aligned with the pin 1 marking on the PCB. Double check that the wires from the fan are inserted into the jacks marked Fan Control. 17. The evaluation kit assembly is complete. Be sure you have read and followed all the assembly steps. Do not forget any jumpers that need to be installed. Inspect the circuit board for solder shorts or poor solder joints. An illuminated magnifier is helpful. 18. Before applying power to your circuit set the power supply for 20V and set the power supply current limit to approximately 100mA. Use little or no load at first. Apply an input signal and check the output with an oscilloscope to verify proper functionality. This step can prevent damaging the amplifier or the circuit board should there be some mistake in assembly.

Assembled EVAL135 with PAD135 installed. 4. The evaluation kit PCB can be mounted in several ways: Option 1- Chassis mount. Use #6 standoffs and screws (not supplied) attached to the PCB at the four corners of the PCB. Option 2- Bench-top mount. Use the five rubber bumpers supplied. These are stick-on components. Remove the release paper from each bumper and apply the bumper to the square outlines on the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Option 3- DIN rail mount. The PCB can be mounted to a 35mm DIN rail. For mounting the PCB to a DIN rail press the adaptors into the PCB in the holes at the edges of the PCB at locations 1 and 2 from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Make sure that the plastic tines have fully spread out on the DUT SIDE of the PCB. 5. Remove the 4 hex nuts from the mounting spacers of the PAD135. 6. Align the 4 studs of the mounting spacers with the mounting holes in the PCB. Be sure that the amplifiers pin 1 aligns with pin 1 on the PCB. Slowly lower the amplifier into the PCB, making sure that the pins of the amplifier and the cage jacks mate. Push the amplifier into the PCB until the mounting spacers meet the PCB. 7. Fasten the amplifier to the PCB with the 4 hex nuts previously removed. Do not over-tighten the nuts as this may strip the mounting studs. The provided plastic nut starter can assist you here. 8. If necessary, strip 1/8 of insulation from the wires connected to the fan. Twist and tin the wire ends. Insert the red wire into the cage jack labeled + at the location marked FAN on the PCB. Likewise insert the blue or black wire into the cage jack labeled at the location marked FAN. Do not solder the wires into the sockets.
ASSEMBLY STEPS
Please note that the #1 cause of problems for evaluation kit users is not reading and following the directions (all of them). The #2 cause of problems is poor solder joints (cold or each step. bridging). Dont become a statistic. Refer to the Illustrated Parts List for the components mentioned in the assembly steps. 1. Notice that the printed circuit board (PCB) is labeled on one side as the DUT SIDE and the other side as CIRCUIT side. 2. As shown in the illustrated parts list, cage jack strips were used to provide you with this assembled evaluation kit. The carrier strips left over from the assembly have been included with the kit and can be cut to length and used as sockets for the components you will use to complete your application circuit. You can solder these sockets at the input locations for the PAD135 and other locations as desired. This can save soldering and unsoldering components as the needs of your application circuit change. 3. D3 and D5 are transient voltage suppressor diodes and are not supplied since the type (breakdown voltage) varies with the application. They are not necessary for every application. They are most commonly used in application circuits where kickback from the load may force the supply voltage above the limits of the amplifier.

9. Use the bread-boarding area to add the external components necessary to program the amplifier gain and other circuit requirements to evaluate your application circuit. You can use the evaluation kit schematic and PCB views to map out your circuit. 10. Remember that the PAD135 must be compensated to operate correctly. See the PAD135 datasheet on Page 4, under PHASE COMPENSATION. The selected phase compensation capacitor will be installed at CC on the evaluation kit PCB. A 10pF capacitor has already been installed in your kit. Another value may better suit your application. Remove and replace the capacitor as necessary for your application. 47pF and 22pF capacitors are also included with the kit. CC must be rated for at least 200V. A temperature stable type capacitor is requiredan X7R ceramic, for example, or an NPO type. 11. The evaluation kit assembly is complete. Be sure you have read and followed all the assembly steps. Inspect the circuit board for solder shorts or poor solder joints. An illuminated magnifier is helpful. 12. Before applying power to your circuit set the power supply for 20V and set the power supply current limit to approximately 100mA. Use little or no load at first. Apply an input signal and check the output with an oscilloscope to verify proper functionality. This step can prevent damaging the amplifier or the circuit board should there be some mistake in assembly.

EVALUATION KIT FOR MODELS PAD137
INTRODUCTION
The EVAL137 evaluation kit provides a convenient method to become familiar with the operation of amplifier model PAD137 before your application circuit is committed to production. Some assembly is required since user selections are needed depending on the application. For example, a current limit resistor value needs to be selected by the user. Also, there are several PCB mounting options available. Critical connections for power supply bypassing and compensation are pre-wired. Fold-over current limit components are not provided since each application will have different requirements. Connections are also provided for diode clamps on each power supply and the output for those applications in which significant inductive kickback may be found. Terminal strips are also provided for input and output signals and power. Sockets are also provided for the optional PAD125 Current Limit Accessory Modules as well as the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module.

PowerAmp Design EVAL137 EVALUATION KIT FOR MODEL PAD137
Assembled EVAL137 with amplifier and optional accessory modules installed. datasheet for the amplifier for complete information on current limit options. Jumpers for option 1 are already installed. Remove and replace the jumpers as needed for the option you have chosen. 4.* This step may require a soldering temperature higher than normal and/or a larger soldering iron tip. Three current limiting sense resistors, R S , are provided; one 0.005 , one 0.010 and one 0.015 . Refer to the data sheet for the PAD125 to determine which resistor value best fits your application (if you have chosen not to use the PAD125 module select the 0.005 resistor or install a length of heavy buss wire into the outer two holes at the location for the sense resistor R S ). Smear a small amount of heat sink grease on the back of the selected resistor and then attach the resistor to heat sink HS1 at R S with a 4-40 X screw and nut. The plastic nut driver supplied with this kit will help here. Tighten the 4-40 resistor mounting hardware. Solder the resistor from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB making sure that the holes are completely filled with solder. 5. D3 and D5 are transient voltage suppressor diodes and are not supplied since the type (breakdown voltage) varies with the application. They are not necessary for every application. They are most commonly used in application circuits where kickback from the load may force the supply voltage above the limits of the amplifier. 6. The evaluation kit PCB can be mounted in several ways. Option 1- Chassis mount. Use #6 standoffs and screws (not supplied) attached to the PCB at the four corners and center area of the PCB. Option 2- Bench-top mount. Use the five rubber bumpers supplied. These are stick-on components. Remove the release paper from each bumper and apply the bumper to the square outlines on the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB.
ASSEMBLY STEPS
Please note that the #1 cause of problems for evaluation kit users is not reading and following the directions (all of them). The #2 cause of problems is poor solder joints (cold or bridging). Dont become a statistic. each step. Refer to the Illustrated Parts List for the components mentioned in the assembly steps. Note that some heavy PCB copper planes and some heavy component leads are soldered in this kit. This may require a larger soldering iron tip and/or higher soldering iron temperatures than might normally be used. These steps are marked with an asterisk (*).
1. Notice that the printed circuit board (PCB) is labeled on one side as the DUT SIDE and the other side as CIRCUIT side. 2. As shown in the illustrated parts list, cage jack strips were used to provide you with this assembled evaluation kit. The carrier strips left over from the assembly have been included with the kit and can be cut to length and used as sockets for the components you will use to complete your application circuit. You can solder these sockets at the input locations for the amplifier and other locations as desired. This can save soldering and unsoldering components as the needs of your application circuit change. 3. Refer to Jumper Selection below the Circuit Diagram for the EVAL137 on page 4. Install the required jumpers at the locations indicated depending on the option you have chosen. Jumpers of various lengths are included in this kit. Refer to the

Option 3- DIN rail mount. The PCB can be mounted to a 35mm DIN rail. For mounting the PCB to a DIN rail press the adaptors into the PCB in the holes at the edges of the PCB at locations 1 and 2 from the CIRCUIT SIDE of the PCB. Make sure that the plastic tines have fully spread out on the DUT SIDE of the PCB. 7. Components for locations R1-R7, D1, D2 are for the optional fold-over current limiting and are not supplied. Refer to the datasheet of the amplifier model to find out how to apply circuits that require these components. 8. Remove the 4 hex nuts from the mounting spacers of the amplifier. 9. Align the 4 studs of the mounting spacers with the mounting holes in the PCB. Be sure that the amplifiers pin 1 aligns with pin 1 on the PCB. Slowly lower the amplifier into the PCB, making sure that the pins of the amplifier and the cage jacks mate. Push the amplifier into the PCB until the mounting spacers meet the PCB. 10. Fasten the amplifier to the PCB with the 4 hex nuts previously removed. Do not over-tighten the nuts as this may strip the mounting studs. The provided plastic nut starter can assist you here. 11. If necessary, strip 1/8 of insulation from the wires connected to the fan. Twist and tin the wire ends. Insert the red wire into the cage jack labeled + and the black or blue wire into the jack marked at the location marked FAN. Or, if you plan to use the PAD131 Fan Controller Accessory Module, insert the fan wires similarly into the + and cage jacks at the location marked Fan Control. Do not solder the fan wires into the PCB. 12. Use the bread-boarding area to add the external components necessary to program the amplifier gain and other circuit requirements to evaluate your application circuit. You can use the evaluation kit schematic and PCB views to map out your circuit. 13. Remember that the amplifier must be compensated to operate correctly. See the amplifier datasheet on Page 4, under PHASE COMPENSATION. The selected phase compensation capacitor will be installed at C C on the evaluation kit PCB. A 470pF capacitor has already been installed in your kit. Another value may better suit your application. Remove and replace the capacitor as necessary for your application. A 100pF capacitor is also included with the kit. C C must be rated for at least 100V. A temperature stable type capacitor is requiredan X7R ceramic, for example, or an NPO type. 14. The evaluation kit assembly is complete. Be sure you have read and followed all the assembly steps. Do not forget any jumpers that need to be installed.
