DESCRIPTIONThe OPA548 is a low-cost, high-voltage/high-current opera-tional amplifier ideal for driving a wide variety of loads. Alaser-trimmed monolithic integrated circuit provides excellentlow-level signal accuracy and high output voltage and cur-rent.

The OPA548 operates from either single or dual supplies fordesign flexibility. In single-supply operation, the input com-mon-mode range extends below ground.

The OPA548 is internally protected against over-temperatureconditions and current overloads. In addition, the OPA548was designed to provide an accurate, user-selected currentlimit. Unlike other designs which use a “power” resistor inseries with the output current path, the OPA548 senses theload indirectly. This allows the current limit to be adjustedfrom 0A to 5A with a resistor/potentiometer or controlleddigitally with a voltage-out or current-out DAC.

The Enable/Status (E/S) pin provides two functions. An inputon the pin not only disables the output stage to effectivelydisconnect the load, but also reduces the quiescent currentto conserve power. The E/S pin output can be monitored todetermine if the OPA548 is in thermal shutdown.

The OPA548 is available in an industry-standard7-lead staggered and straight lead TO-220 package, and a7-lead DDPAK surface-mount plastic power package. Thecopper tab allows easy mounting to a heat sink or circuitboard for excellent thermal performance. It is specified foroperation over the extended industrial temperature range,–40°C to +85°C. A SPICE macromodel is available fordesign analysis.

NOTES: (1) Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage.(2) Vapor-phase or IR reflow techniques are recommended for soldering theOPA547F surface-mount package. Wave soldering is not recommended due toexcessive thermal shock and “shadowing” of nearby devices.

PACKAGE/ORDERING INFORMATION

For the most current package and ordering information, see the Package Ordering Addendum at the end of this data sheet.

ELECTROSTATICDISCHARGE SENSITIVITY

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instru-ments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled withappropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handlingand installation procedures can cause damage.

ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradationto complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may bemore susceptible to damage because very small parametricchanges could cause the device not to meet its publishedspecifications.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATIONFigure 1 shows the OPA548 connected as a basic noninvertingamplifier. The OPA548 can be used in virtually any op ampconfiguration.

Power-supply terminals should be bypassed with low seriesimpedance capacitors. The technique shown in Figure 7,using a ceramic and tantalum type in parallel is recom-mended. In addition, we recommend a 0.01µF capacitorbetween V+ and V– as close to the OPA548 as possible.Power-supply wiring should have low series impedance.

With the OPA548, the simplest method for adjusting thecurrent limit uses a resistor or potentiometer connectedbetween the ILIM pin and V– according to the Equation 1:

RICLLIM

=( )( )15000 4 75

13750.

– Ω

The low-level control signal (0µA to 330µA) also allows thecurrent limit to be digitally controlled.

See Figure 3 for a simplified schematic of the internalcircuitry used to set the current limit. Leaving the ILIM pinopen programs the output current to zero, while connectingILIM directly to V– programs the maximum output current limit,typically 5A.

SAFE OPERATING AREA

Stress on the output transistors is determined both by theoutput current and by the output voltage across the conduct-ing output transistor, VS – VO. The power dissipated by theoutput transistor is equal to the product of the output currentand the voltage across the conducting transistor, VS – VO.The Safe Operating Area (SOA curve, Figure 2) shows thepermissible range of voltage and current.

FIGURE 1. Basic Circuit Connections.

POWER SUPPLIES

The OPA548 operates from single (+8V to +60V) or dual(±4V to ±30V) supplies with excellent performance. Mostbehavior remains unchanged throughout the full operatingvoltage range. Parameters which vary significantly with oper-ating voltage are shown in the typical characteristic curves.

Some applications do not require equal positive and negativeoutput voltage swing. Power-supply voltages do not need tobe equal. The OPA548 can operate with as little as 8Vbetween the supplies and with up to 60V between thesupplies. For example, the positive supply could be set to55V with the negative supply at –5V, or vice-versa.

ADJUSTABLE CURRENT LIMIT

The OPA548 features an accurate, user-selected currentlimit. Current limit is set from 0A to 5A by controlling the inputto the ILIM pin. Unlike other designs which use a powerresistor in series with the output current path, the OPA548senses the load indirectly. This allows the current limit to beset with a 0µA to 330µA control signal. In contrast, otherdesigns require a limiting resistor to handle the full outputcurrent (5A in this case).

FIGURE 2. Safe Operating Area.

The safe output current decreases as VS – VO increases.Output short-circuits are a very demanding case for SOA. Ashort-circuit to ground forces the full power-supply voltage(V+ or V–) across the conducting transistor. Increasing thecase temperature reduces the safe output current that can betolerated without activating the thermal shutdown circuit ofthe OPA548. For further insight on SOA, consult ApplicationBulletin SBOA022.

AMPLIFIER MOUNTING

Figure 4 provides recommended solder footprints for both theTO-220 and DDPAK power packages. The tab of both pack-ages is electrically connected to the negative supply, V–. It maybe desirable to isolate the tab of the TO-220 package from its

heat dissipation. See Figure 6 for typical thermal resistancefrom junction-to-ambient as a function of the copper area.

POWER DISSIPATION

Power dissipation depends on power supply, signal, and loadconditions. For dc signals, power dissipation is equal tothe product of output current times the voltage across the

mounting surface with a mica (or other film) insulator (seeFigure 5). For lowest overall thermal resistance it is best toisolate the entire heat sink/OPA548 structure from the mount-ing surface rather than to use an insulator between thesemiconductor and heat sink.

For best thermal performance, the tab of the DDPAK sur-face-mount version should be soldered directly to a circuitboard copper area. Increasing the copper area improves

conducting output transistor. Power dissipation can be mini-mized by using the lowest possible power-supply voltagenecessary to assure the required output voltage swing.

For resistive loads, the maximum power dissipation occurs ata dc output voltage of one-half the power-supply voltage.Dissipation with ac signals is lower. Application BulletinSBOA022 explains how to calculate or measure powerdissipation with unusual signals and loads.

THERMAL PROTECTION

Power dissipated in the OPA548 will cause the junctiontemperature to rise. The OPA548 has thermal shutdowncircuitry that protects the amplifier from damage. The thermalprotection circuitry disables the output when the junctiontemperature reaches approximately 160°C, allowing the de-vice to cool. When the junction temperature cools to approxi-mately 140°C, the output circuitry is again enabled. Depend-ing on load and signal conditions, the thermal protection

circuit may cycle on and off. This limits the dissipation of theamplifier but may have an undesirable effect on the load.

Any tendency to activate the thermal protection circuit indi-cates excessive power dissipation or an inadequate heatsink. For reliable operation, junction temperature should belimited to 125°C, maximum. To estimate the margin of safetyin a complete design (including heat sink) increase theambient temperature until the thermal protection is triggered.Use worst-case load and signal conditions. For good reliabil-ity, thermal protection should trigger more than 35°C abovethe maximum expected ambient condition of your applica-tion. This produces a junction temperature of 125°C at themaximum expected ambient condition.

The internal protection circuitry of the OPA548 was designedto protect against overload conditions. It was not intended toreplace proper heat sinking. Continuously running the OPA548into thermal shutdown will degrade reliability.

HEAT SINKING

Most applications require a heat sink to assure that themaximum operating junction temperature (125°C) is notexceeded. In addition, the junction temperature should bekept as low as possible for increased reliability. Junctiontemperature can be determined according to the equation:

TJ = TA + PDθJA (1)

where, θJA = θJC + θCH + θHA (2)

TJ = Junction Temperature (°C)TA = Ambient Temperature (°C)PD = Power Dissipated (W)θJC = Junction-to-Case Thermal Resistance (°C/W)θCH = Case-to-Heat Sink Thermal Resistance (°C/W)θHA = Heat Sink-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance (°C/W)θJA = Junction-to-Air Thermal Resistance (°C/W)

Figure 7 shows maximum power dissipation versus ambienttemperature with and without the use of a heat sink. Using aheat sink significantly increases the maximum power dissipa-tion at a given ambient temperature as shown.

The difficulty in selecting the heat sink required lies indetermining the power dissipated by the OPA548. For dcoutput into a purely resistive load, power dissipation is simplythe load current times the voltage developed across theconducting output transistor, PD = IL(VS–VO). Other loads arenot as simple. Consult Application Bulletin SBOA022 forfurther insight on calculating power dissipation. Once powerdissipation for an application is known, the proper heat sinkcan be selected.

Combining equations (1) and (2) gives:

TJ = TA + PD(θJC + θCH + θHA) (3)

TJ, TA, and PD are given. θJC is provided in the specificationtable, 2.5°C/W (dc). θCH can be obtained from the heat sinkmanufacturer. Its value depends on heat sink size, area, andmaterial used. Semiconductor package type, mounting screwtorque, insulating material used (if any), and thermaljoint compound used (if any) also affect θCH. A typical θCH fora TO-220 mounted package is 1°C/W. Now we can solve forθHA:

To maintain junction temperature below 125°C, the heat sinkselected must have a θHA less than 14°C/W. In other words,the heat sink temperature rise above ambient must be lessthan 67.5°C (13.5°C/W • 5W). For example, at 5W Thermalloymodel number 6030B has a heat sink temperature rise of66°C above ambient (θHA = 66°C/5W = 13.2°C/W), which isbelow the 67.5°C required in this example. Figure 7 showspower dissipation versus ambient temperature for a TO-220package with a 6030B heat sink.

Another variable to consider is natural convection versusforced convection air flow. Forced-air cooling by a small fancan lower θCA (θCH + θHA) dramatically. Heat sink manufac-tures provide thermal data for both of these cases. Foradditional information on determining heat sink requirements,consult Application Bulletin SBOA021.

As mentioned earlier, once a heat sink has been selected,the complete design should be tested under worst-case loadand signal conditions to ensure proper thermal protection.

ENABLE/STATUS (E/S) PIN

The Enable/Status pin provides two functions: forcing this pinLOW disables the output stage, or E/S can be monitored todetermine if the OPA548 is in thermal shutdown. One or bothof these functions can be utilized on the same device usingsingle or dual supplies. For normal operation (output en-abled), the E/S pin can be left open or pulled HIGH (at least2.4V above the negative rail). A small value capacitor con-nected between the E/S pin and V– may be required for noisyapplications.

Output DisableA unique feature of the OPA548 is its output disable capabil-ity. This function not only conserves power during idle peri-ods (quiescent current drops to approximately 6mA), but alsoallows multiplexing in low frequency (f < 20kHz), multichan-nel applications. Signals greater than 20kHz may causeleakage current to increase in devices that are shutdown.Figure 18 shows the two OPA548s in a switched amplifierconfiguration. The on/off state of the two amplifiers is con-trolled by the voltage on the E/S pin.

Heat Sink Selection Example

A TO-220 package is dissipating 5W. The maximum ex-pected ambient temperature is 40°C. Find the proper heatsink to keep the junction temperature below 125°C (150°Cminus 25°C safety margin).

To disable the output, the E/S pin is pulled LOW, no greaterthan 0.8V above the negative rail. Typically the output isshutdown in 1µs. Figure 8 provides an example of how toimplement this function using a single supply. Figure 9 givesa circuit for dual-supply applications. To return the output to anenabled state, the E/S pin should be disconnected (open) orpulled to at least (V–) + 2.4V. It should be noted that pulling theE/S pin HIGH (output enabled) does not disable internalthermal shutdown.

Output Disable and Thermal Shutdown StatusAs mentioned earlier, the OPA548’s output can be disabledand the disable status can be monitored simultaneously.Figures 12 and 13 provide examples interfacing to the E/Spin while using a single supply and dual supplies, respec-tively.

OUTPUT STAGE COMPENSATION

The complex load impedances common in power op ampapplications can cause output stage instability. For normaloperation output compensation circuitry is typically not re-quired. However, if the OPA548 is intended to be driven intocurrent limit, an R/C network may be required. See Figure 14for an output series R/C compensation (snubber) networkwhich generally provides excellent stability.

A snubber circuit may also enhance stability when drivinglarge capacitive loads (> 1000pF) or inductive loads (motors,loads separated from the amplifier by long cables). Typically3Ω to 10Ω in series with 0.01µF to 0.1µF is adequate. Somevariations in circuit value may be required with certain loads.

OUTPUT PROTECTION

Reactive and EMF-generating loads can return load cur-rent to the amplifier, causing the output voltage to exceedthe power-supply voltage. This damaging condition can be

Thermal Shutdown StatusInternal thermal shutdown circuitry shuts down the output whenthe die temperature reaches approximately 160°C, resettingwhen the die has cooled to 140°C. The E/S pin can bemonitored to determine if shutdown has occurred. Duringnormal operation the voltage on the E/S pin is typically 3.5Vabove the negative rail. Once shutdown has occurred, thisvoltage drops to approximately 350mV above the negative rail.

Figure 10 gives an example of monitoring shutdown in asingle-supply application. Figure 11 provides a circuit for dualsupplies. External logic circuitry or an LED could be used toindicate if the output has been thermally shutdown, seeFigure 16.

VOLTAGE SOURCE APPLICATION

Figure 15 illustrates how to use the OPA548 to provide anaccurate voltage source with only three external resistors.First, the current limit resistor, RCL, is chosen according tothe desired output current. The resulting voltage at the ILIM

pin is constant and stable over temperature. This voltage,VCL, is connected to the noninverting input of the op amp and

used as a voltage reference, thus eliminating the need for anexternal reference. The feedback resistors are selected togain VCL to the desired output voltage level.

PROGRAMMABLE POWER SUPPLY

A programmable source/sink power supply can easily bebuilt using the OPA548. Both the output voltage and outputcurrent are user-controlled. See Figure 16 for a circuit usingpotentiometers to adjust the output voltage and current whileFigure 17 uses DACs. An LED tied to the E/S pin through alogic gate indicates if the OPA548 is in thermal shutdown.
