DESCRIPTION
The PA85 is a high voltage, high power bandwidth MOSFET
operational amplifier designed for output currents up to 200mA.
Output voltages can swing up to
215V with a dual supply and
up to +440 volts with a single supply. The safe operating area
(SOA) has no second breakdown limitations and can be
observed with all types of loads by choosing an appropriate
current limiting resistor. High accuracy is achieved with a
cascode input circuit configuration. All internal biasing is
referenced to a bootstrapped zener-MOSFET current source.
As a result, the PA85 features an unprecedented supply range
and excellent supply rejection. The MOSFET output stage is
biased on for linear operation. External compensation pro-
vides user flexibility.
This hybrid circuit utilizes thick film (cermet) resistors, ce-
ramic capacitors and silicon semiconductor chips to maximize
reliability, minimize size and give top performance. Ultrasoni-
cally bonded aluminum wires provide reliable interconnec-
tions at all operating temperatures. The 8-pin TO-3 package is
hermetically sealed and electrically isolated. The use of com-
pressible isolation washers voids the warranty.

TYPICAL APPLICATION
Dynamic focusing is the active correction of focusing volt-
age as a beam traverses the face of a CRT. This is necessary
in high resolution flat face monitors since the distance be-
tween cathode and screen varies as the beam moves from the
center of the screen to the edges. PA85 lends itself well to this
function since it can be connected as a summing amplifier with
inputs from the nominal focus potential and the dynamic
correction. The nominal might be derived from a potentiom-
eter, or perhaps automatic focusing circuitry might be used to
generate this potential. The dynamic correction is generated
from the sweep voltages by calculating the distance of the
beam from the center of the display.

OPERATING
CONSIDERATIONS
PA85 PA85A
GENERAL
Please read the "General Operating Considerations" sec-
tion, which covers stability, supplies, heatsinking, mounting,
current limit, SOA interpretation, and specification interpreta-
tion. Additional information can be found in the application
notes. For information on the package outline, heatsinks, and
mounting hardware, consult the "Accessory and Package
Mechanical Data" section of the handbook.
CURRENT LIMIT
For proper operation, the current limit resistor (R
CL
) must be
connected as shown in the external connection diagram. The
minimum value is 1.4 ohm, however for optimum reliability the
resistor value should be set as high as possible. The value is
calculated as follows; with the maximum practical value of 30
ohms.

SAFE OPERATING AREA (SOA)
The MOSFET output stage of this power operational ampli-
fier has two distinct limitations:
1. The current handling capability of the MOSFET geometry
and the wire bonds.
2. The junction temperature of the output MOSFETs.
NOTE: The output stage is protected against transient flyback.
However, for protection against sustained, high energy flyback,
external fast-recovery diodes should be used.
SAFE OPERATING CURVES
The safe operating area curves define the maximum addi-
tional internal power dissipation the amplifier can tolerate
when it produces the necessary output to drive an external
load. This is not the same as the absolute maximum internal

power dissipation listed elsewhere in the specification since
the quiescent power dissipation is significant compared to the
total.
INPUT PROTECTION
Although the PA85 can withstand differential voltages up to
25V, additional external protection is recommended. Since
the PA85 is a high speed amplifier, low leakage, low capaci-
tance JFETs connected as diodes are recommended (e.g.
2N4416, Q1-Q4 in Figure 2). The differential input voltage will
be clamped to
1.4V. This is sufficient overdrive to produce
maximum power bandwidth.
POWER SUPPLY PROTECTION
Unidirectional zener diode transient suppressors are recom-
mended as protection on the supply pins. The zeners clamp
transients to voltages within the power supply rating and also
clamp power supply reversals to ground. Whether the zeners
are used or not, the system power supply should be evaluated
for transient performance including power-on overshoot and
power-off polarity reversals as well as line regulation.
Conditions which can cause open circuits or polarity rever-
sals on either power supply rail should be avoided or protected
against. Reversals or opens on the negative supply rail is
known to induce input stage failure. Unidirectional transzorbs
prevent this, and it is desirable that they be both electrically and
physically as close to the amplifier as possible.
STABILITY
The PA85 is externally compensated and performance can
be tailored to the application. Use the graphs of small signal
response and power response as a guide. The compensation
capacitor C
C
must be rated at 500V working voltage. An NPO
capacitor is recommended. The compensation network C
C
R
C
must be mounted closely to the amplifier pins 7 and 8 to avoid
spurious oscillation.
