DESCRIPTION
The PA13 is a state of the art high voltage, very high output current operational amplifier designed to drive resistive, inductive and capacitive loads. For optimum linearity, especially at low levels, the output stage is biased for class A/B operation using a thermistor compensated base-emitter voltage multiplier circuit. The safe operating area (SOA) can be observed for all operating conditions by selection of user programmable current limiting resistors. For continuous operation under load, a heatsink of proper rating is recommended. The PA13 is not recommended for gains below -3 (inverting) or +4 (non-inverting). This hybrid integrated circuit utilizes thick film (cermet) resistors, ceramic capacitors and semiconductor chips to maximize reliability, minimize size and give top performance. Ultrasonically bonded aluminum wires provide reliable interconnections at all operating temperatures. The 12-pin power SIP package is electrically isolated.

POWER RATING
Not all vendors use the same method to rate the power handling capability of a Power Op Amp. APEX rates the internal dissipation, which is consistent with rating methods used by transistor manufacturers and gives conservative results. Rating delivered power is highly application dependent and therefore can be misleading. For example, the 135W internal dissipation rating of the PA13 could be expressed as an output rating of 260W for audio (sine wave) or as 440W if using a single ended DC load. Please note that all vendors rate maximum power using an infinite heatsink.
TYPICAL APPLICATION

THERMAL STABILITY
APEX has eliminated the tendency of class A/B output stages toward thermal runaway and thus has vastly increased amplifier reliability. This feature, not found in most other Power Op Amps, was pioneered by APEX in 1981 using thermistors which assure a negative temperature coefficient in the quiescent current. The reliability benefits of this added circuitry far outweigh the slight increase in component count.

NOTES:
* The specification of PA13A is identical to the specification for PA13 in the applicable column to the left 1. Long term operation at the maximum junction temperature will result in reduced product life. Derate internal power dissipation to achieve high MTTF. 2. The power supply voltage for all tests is 40, unless otherwise noted as a test condition. 3. +VS and -VS denote the positive and negative supply rail respectively. Total VS is measured from +VS to -VS. 4. Rating applies if the output current alternates between both output transistors at a rate faster than 60Hz. 5. Full temperature range specifications are guaranteed but not 100% tested. The exposed substrate contains beryllia (BeO). Do not crush, machine, or subject to temperatures in excess of 850C to avoid generating toxic fumes.

GENERAL
Please read Application Note 1 "General Operating Considerations" which covers stability, supplies, heat sinking, mounting, current limit, SOA interpretation, and specification interpretation. Visit www.apexmicrotech.com for design tools that help automate tasks such as calculations for stability, internal power dissipation, current limit; heat sink selection; Apex's complete Application Notes library; Technical Seminar Workbook; and Evaluation Kits.
SAFE OPERATING AREA (SOA)
The output stage of most power amplifiers has three distinct limitations: 1. The current handling capability of the transistor geometry and the wire bonds. 2. The second breakdown effect which occurs whenever the simultaneous collector current and collector-emitter voltage exceeds specified limits. 3. The junction temperature of the output transistors. The SOA curves combine the effect of all limits for this Power
CURRENT LIMITING
Refer to Application Note 9, "Current Limiting", for details of both fixed and foldover current limit operation. Visit the Apex web site at www.apexmicrotech.com for a copy of Power_design. exe which plots current limits vs. steady state SOA. Beware that current limit should be thought of as a +/-20% function initially and varies about 2:1 over the range of -55C to 125C. For fixed current limit, leave pin 4 open and use equations 1 and 2. RCL = 0.65/LCL (1) ICL = 0.65/RCL (2) Where: ICL is the current limit in amperes. RCL is the current limit resistor in ohms. For certain applications, foldover current limit adds a slope to the current limit which allows more power to be delivered to the load without violating the SOA. For maximum foldover slope, ground pin 4 and use equations 3 and 4. 0.65 + (Vo * 0.014) ICL = (3) RCL 0.65 + (Vo * 0.014) (4) RCL = ICL Where: Vo is the output voltage in volts. Most designers start with either equation 1 to set RCL for the desired current at 0v out, or with equation 4 to set RCL at the maximum output voltage. Equation 3 should then be used to plot the resulting foldover limits on the SOA graph. If equation 3 results in a negative current limit, foldover slope must be reduced. This can happen when the output voltage is the opposite polarity of the supply conducting the current. In applications where a reduced foldover slope is desired, this can be achieved by adding a resistor (RFO) between pin 4 and ground. Use equations 4 and 5 with this new resistor in the circuit. Vo * 0.14 0.65 + 10.14 + RFO ICL = (5) RCL Vo * 0.14 0.65 + 10.14 + RFO RCL = (6) ICL Where: RFO is in K ohms.

Op Amp. For a given application, the direction and magnitude of the output current should be calculated or measured and checked against the SOA curves. This is simple for resistive loads but more complex for reactive and EMF generating loads. However, the following guidelines may save extensive analytical efforts. 1. Capacitive and dynamic* inductive loads up to the following maximum are safe with the current limits set as specified. CAPACITIVE LOAD INDUCTIVE LOAD VS ILIM = 5A ILIM = 10A ILIM = 5A ILIM = 10A 50V 200F 125F 5mH 2.0mH 40V 500F 350F 15mH 3.0mH 35V 2.0mF 850F 50mH 5.0mH 30V 7.0mF 2.5mF 150mH 10mH 25V 25mF 10mF 500mH 20mH 20V 60mF 20mF 1,000mH 30mH 15V 150mF 60mF 2,500mH 50mH *If the inductive load is driven near steady state conditions, allowing the output voltage to drop more than 12.5V below the supply rail with ILIM = 10A or 27V below the supply rail with ILIM = 5A while the amplifier is current limiting, the inductor must be capacitively coupled or the current limit must be lowered to meet SOA criteria. 2.
