Including the power booster within the feedback loop of the driver amplifier results in a composite amplifier with the accuracy of the driver and the extended output voltage range and current capability of the booster. The PB50 can also be used without a driver in some applications, requiring only an external current limit resistor to function properly. The output stage utilizes complementary MOSFETs, providing symmetrical output impedance and eliminating secondary breakdown limitations imposed by Bipolar Junction Transistors. Internal feedback and gainset resistors are provided for a pin-strappable gain of 3. Additional gain can be achieved with a single external resistor. Compensation is not required for most driver/gain configurations, but can be accomplished with a single external capacitor. Although the booster can be configured quite simply, enormous flexibility is provided through the choice of driver amplifier, current limit, supply voltage, voltage gain, and compensation. This hybrid circuit utilizes a beryllia (BeO) substrate, thick film 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 8-pin TO-3 package is electrically isolated and hermetically sealed using one-shot resistance welding.The use of compressible isolation washers voids the warranty.

Visit www.Cirrus.com for design tools that help automate tasks such as calculations for stability, internal power dissipation, current limit; heat sink selection; Apex Precision Power's complete Application Notes library; Technical Seminar Workbook; and Evaluation Kits. Stability can be maximized by observing the following guidelines: 1. Operate the booster in the lowest practical gain. 2. Operate the driver amplifier in the highest practical effective gain. 3. Keep gain-bandwidth product of the driver lower than the closed loop bandwidth of the booster. 4. Minimize phase shift within the loop. A good compromise for (1) and (2) is to set booster gain from 3 to 10 with total (composite) gain at least a factor of 3 times booster gain. Guideline (3) implies compensating the driver as required in low composite gain configurations. Phase shift within the loop (4) is minimized through use of booster and loop compensation capacitors Cc and Cf when required. Typical values are 5pF to 33pF. Stability is the most difficult to achieve in a configuration where driver effective gain is unity (ie; total gain = booster gain). For this situation, Table 1 gives compensation values for optimum square wave response with the op amp drivers listed. CURRENT LIMIT OUTPUT CURRENT FROM +VS OR -VS (A) For proper operation, the current limit resistor (RCL) must be connected as shown in the external connection diagram. The minimum value is 0.27 with a maximum practical value of 47. For optimum reliability the resistor value should be set as high as possible. The value is calculated as follows: +IL= .65/RCL + .010, -IL = .65/RCL.

The most important of these are gain, stability, slew rate, and output swing of the driver. Operating the booster amplifier in higher gains results in a higher slew rate and lower output swing requirement for the driver, but makes stability more difficult to achieve. GAIN SET RG = [ (Av-1) * 3.1K] - 6.2K RG + 6.2K Av = +1 3.1K The booster's closed-loop gain is given by the equation above.The composite amplifier's closed loop gain is determined by the feedback network, that is: -Rf/Ri (inverting) or 1+Rf/Ri (non-inverting). The driver amplifier's "effective gain" is equal to the composite gain divided by the booster gain. Example: Inverting configuration (figure 1) with R i = 2K, R f = 60K, R g = 0 : Av (booster) = (6.2K/3.1K) + 1 = 3 Av (composite) = 60K/2K = - 30 Av (driver) = - 30/3 = -10 4 SR 1.5 7 >60 >60 >60 Table 1: Typical values for case where op amp effective gain = 1. CF SAFE OPERATING AREA (SOA) NOTE:The output stage is protected against transient flyback. However, for protection against sustained, high energy flyback, external fast-recovery diodes should be used.

SLEW RATE The slew rate of the composite amplifier is equal to the slew rate of the driver times the booster gain, with a maximum value equal to the booster slew rate. OUTPUT SWING The maximum output voltage swing required from the driver op amp is equal to the maximum output swing from the booster divided by the booster gain. The Vos of the booster must also be supplied by the driver, and should be subtracted from the available swing range of the driver. Note also that effects of Vos drift and booster gain accuracy should be considered when calculating maximum available driver swing.
