OPA549
High-Voltage, High-Current
OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER
DESCRIPTION
The OPA549 is a low-cost, high-voltage/high-current opera-
tional amplifier ideal for driving a wide variety of loads. This
laser-trimmed monolithic integrated circuit provides excellent
low-level signal accuracy and high output voltage and current.
The OPA549 operates from either single or dual supplies for
design flexibility. The input common-mode range extends
below the negative supply.
The OPA549 is internally protected against over-temperature
conditions and current overloads. In addition, the OPA549
provides an accurate, user-selected current limit. Unlike
other designs which use a “power” resistor in series with the
output current path, the OPA549 senses the load indirectly.
This allows the current limit to be adjusted from 0A to 10A
with a resistor/potentiometer, or controlled digitally with a
voltage-out or current-out Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC).
The Enable/Status (E/S) pin provides two functions. It can be
monitored to determine if the device is in thermal shutdown,
and it can be forced low to disable the output stage and
effectively disconnect the load.
The OPA549 is available in an 11-lead power package. Its
copper tab allows easy mounting to a heat sink for excellent
thermal performance. Operation is specified over the ex-
tended industrial temperature range, –40°C to +85°C.

ELECTROSTATIC
DISCHARGE SENSITIVITY
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instru-
ments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling
and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation
to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be
more susceptible to damage because very small parametric
changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Figure 1 shows the OPA549 connected as a basic noninverting
amplifier. The OPA549 can be used in virtually any op amp
configuration.
Power-supply terminals should be bypassed with low series
impedance capacitors. The technique shown in Figure 1, using
a ceramic and tantalum type in parallel, is recommended.
Power-supply wiring should have low series impedance.
Be sure to connect
both
output pins (pins 1 and 2).
CONTROL REFERENCE (Ref) PIN
The OPA549 features a reference (Ref) pin to which the ILIM
and the E/S pin are referred. Ref simply provides a reference
point accessible to the user that can be set to V, ground, or
any reference of the users choice. Ref cannot be set below
the negative supply or above (V+) – 8V. If the minimum VS
is used, Ref must be set at V–.
ADJUSTABLE CURRENT LIMIT
The OPA549s accurate, user-defined current limit can be set
from 0A to 10A by controlling the input to the ILIM pin. Unlike
other designs, which use a power resistor in series with the
output current path, the OPA549 senses the load indirectly.
This allows the current limit to be set with a 0µA to 633µA
control signal. In contrast, other designs require a limiting
resistor to handle the full output current (up to 10A in this
case).
Although the design of the OPA549 allows output currents up
to 10A, it is not recommended that the device be operated
continuously at that level. The highest rated continuous
current capability is 8A. Continuously running the OPA549 at
output currents greater than 8A will degrade long-term reli-
ability.
Operation of the OPA549 with current limit less than 1A
results in reduced current limit accuracy. Applications requir-
ing lower output current may be better suited to the OPA547
or OPA548.
Resistor-Controlled Current Limit
See Figure 2a for a simplified schematic of the internal
circuitry used to set the current limit. Leaving the ILIM pin open
programs the output current to zero, while connecting ILIM
directly to Ref programs the maximum output current limit,
typically 10A.
With the OPA549, the simplest method for adjusting the
current limit uses a resistor or potentiometer connected
between the ILIM pin and Ref according to Equation 1:
R75kV
I7.5k
CL LIM
=Ω
(1)
Refer to Figure 2 for commonly used values.
Digitally-Controlled Current Limit
The low-level control signal (0µA to 633µA) also allows the
current limit to be digitally controlled by setting either a
current (ISET) or voltage (VSET). The output current ILIM can be
adjusted by varying ISET according to Equation 2:
ISET = ILIM/15800 (2)
Figure 2b demonstrates a circuit configuration implementing
this feature.
The output current ILIM can be adjusted by varying VSET
according to Equation 3:
VSET = (Ref) + 4.75V (7500W)(ILIM)/15800 (3)
Figure 11 demonstrates a circuit configuration implementing
this feature.
FIGURE 1. Basic Circuit Connections.
POWER SUPPLIES
The OPA549 operates from single (+8V to +60V) or dual
(±4V to ±30V) supplies with excellent performance. Most
behavior remains unchanged throughout the full operating
voltage range. Parameters that vary significantly with operat-
ing voltage are shown in the Typical Characteristics. Some
applications do not require equal positive and negative out-
put voltage swing. Power-supply voltages do not need to be
equal. The OPA549 can operate with as little as 8V between
the supplies and with up to 60V between the supplies. For
example, the positive supply could be set to 55V with the
negative supply at 5V. Be sure to connect both V– pins
(pins 5 and 7) to the negative power supply, and both V+
pins (pins 10 and 11) to the positive power supply.
Package tab is internally connected to V–; however, do
not use the tab to conduct current.

FIGURE 2. Adjustable Current Limit.
ENABLE/STATUS (E/S) PIN
The Enable/Status Pin provides two unique functions:
1) output disable by forcing the pin low, and 2) thermal
shutdown indication by monitoring the voltage level at the
pin. Either or both of these functions can be utilized in an
application. For normal operation (output enabled), the E/S
pin can be left open or driven high (at least 2.4V above Ref).
A small value capacitor connected between the E/S pin and
CREF may be required for noisy applications.
Output Disable
To disable the output, the E/S pin is pulled to a logic low (no
greater than 0.8V above Ref). Typically the output is shut down
in 1µs. To return the output to an enabled state, the E/S pin
should be disconnected (open) or pulled to at least 2.4V above
Ref. It should be noted that driving the E/S pin high (output
enabled)
does not defeat internal thermal shutdown
; however,
it does prevent the user from monitoring the thermal shutdown
status. Figure 3 shows an example implementing this function.
This function not only conserves power during idle periods
(quiescent current drops to approximately 6mA) but also allows
multiplexing in multi-channel applications. See Figure 12 for two
OPA549s in a switched amplifier configuration. The on/off state
of the two amplifiers is controlled by the voltage on the E/S pin.
Under these conditions, the disabled device will behave like a
750pF load. Slewing faster than 3V/µs will cause leakage
current to rapidly increase in devices that are disabled, and will
contribute additional load. At high temperature (125°C), the
slewing threshold drops to approximately 2V/µs. Input signals
must be limited to avoid excessive slewing in multiplexed
applications.

Thermal Shutdown Status
The OPA549 has thermal shutdown circuitry that protects the
amplifier from damage. The thermal protection circuitry dis-
ables the output when the junction temperature reaches
approximately 160°C and allows the device to cool. When the
junction temperature cools to approximately 140°C, the output
circuitry is automatically re-enabled. Depending on load and
signal conditions, the thermal protection circuit may cycle on
and off. The E/S pin can be monitored to determine if the
device is in shutdown. During normal operation, the voltage on
the E/S pin is typically 3.5V above Ref. Once shutdown has
occurred, this voltage drops to approximately 200mV above
Ref. Figure 4 shows an example implementing this function.

FIGURE 5. Output Disable and Thermal Shutdown Status.
FIGURE 6. Safe Operating Area.
External logic circuitry or an LED can be used to indicate if
the output has been thermally shutdown, see Figure 10.
Output Disable and Thermal Shutdown Status
As mentioned earlier, the OPA549s output can be disabled
and the disable status can be monitored simultaneously.
Figure 5 provides an example of interfacing to the E/S pin.
SAFE OPERATING AREA
Stress on the output transistors is determined both by the
output current and by the output voltage across the conduct-
ing output transistor, VS VO. The power dissipated by the
output transistor is equal to the product of the output current
and the voltage across the conducting transistor, VS VO.
The Safe Operating Area (SOA curve, Figure 6) shows the
permissible range of voltage and current.
The safe output current decreases as VS V
O increases.
Output short circuits are a very demanding case for SOA. A
short circuit to ground forces the full power-supply voltage
(V+ or V) across the conducting transistor. Increasing the
case temperature reduces the safe output current that can be
tolerated without activating the thermal shutdown circuit of
the OPA549. For further insight on SOA, consult Application
Report SBOA022 at the Texas Instruments web site
(www.ti.com).
POWER DISSIPATION
Power dissipation depends on power supply, signal, and load
conditions. For dc signals, power dissipation is equal to the
product of output current times the voltage across the con-
ducting output transistor. Power dissipation can be mini-
mized by using the lowest possible power-supply voltage
necessary to assure the required output voltage swing.
For resistive loads, the maximum power dissipation occurs at
a dc output voltage of one-half the power-supply voltage.
Dissipation with ac signals is lower. Application Bulletin
SBOA022 explains how to calculate or measure power
dissipation with unusual signals and loads.
THERMAL PROTECTION
Power dissipated in the OPA549 will cause the junction
temperature to rise. Internal thermal shutdown circuitry shuts
down the output when the die temperature reaches approxi-
mately 160°C and resets when the die has cooled to 140°C.
Depending on load and signal conditions, the thermal protec-
tion circuit may cycle on and off. This limits the dissipation of
the amplifier 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 heat
sink. For reliable operation, junction temperature should be
limited to 125°C maximum. To estimate the margin of safety
in a complete design (including heat sink) increase the
ambient 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 above
the maximum expected ambient condition of your applica-
tion. This produces a junction temperature of 125°C at the
maximum expected ambient condition.
The internal protection circuitry of the OPA549 was designed
to protect against overload conditions. It was not intended to
replace proper heat sinking. Continuously running the OPA549
into thermal shutdown will degrade reliability.
AMPLIFIER MOUNTING AND HEAT SINKING
Most applications require a heat sink to assure that the
maximum operating junction temperature (125°C) is not
exceeded. In addition, the junction temperature should be
kept as low as possible for increased reliability. Junction
temperature can be determined according to the Equations:
TJ = TA + PD

θ
HA = Heat Sink-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance (°C/W)
θ
JA = Junction-to-Air Thermal Resistance (°C/W)
Figure 7 shows maximum power dissipation versus ambient
temperature with and without the use of a heat sink. Using a
heat sink significantly increases the maximum power dissipa-
tion at a given ambient temperature, as shown in Figure 7.
The challenge in selecting the heat sink required lies in
determining the power dissipated by the OPA549. For dc
output, power dissipation is simply the load current times the
voltage developed across the conducting output transistor,
PD = IL (VS VO). Other loads are not as simple. Consult the
SBOA022 Application Report for further insight on calculat-
ing power dissipation. Once power dissipation for an applica-
tion is known, the proper heat sink can be selected.
Heat Sink Selection ExampleAn 11-lead power ZIP pack-
age is dissipating 10 Watts. The maximum expected ambient
temperature is 40°C. Find the proper heat sink to keep the
junction temperature below 125°C (150°C minus 25°C safety
margin).
Combining Equations (4) and (5) gives:
TJ = TA + PD (
θ
JC +
θ
CH +
θ
HA ) (6)
TJ, TA, and PD are given.
θ
JC is provided in the Specifications
Table, 1.4°C/W (dc).
θ
CH can be obtained from the heat sink
manufacturer. Its value depends on heat sink size, area, and
material used. Semiconductor package type, mounting screw
torque, insulating material used (if any), and thermal joint
compound used (if any) also affect
θ
CH. A typical
θ
CH for a
mounted 11-lead power ZIP package is 0.5°C/W. Now we
can solve for
θ
HA:
θ
HA = [(TJ TA)/PD]
θ
JC
θ
CH
θ
HA = [(125°C 40°C)/10W] 1.4°C/W 0.5°C/W
θ
HA = 6.6°C/W
To maintain junction temperature below 125°C, the heat sink
selected must have a
θ
HA
less than 6.6°C/W. In other words,
the heat sink temperature rise above ambient must be less
than 66°C (6.6°C/W 10W). For example, at 10W Thermalloy
model number 6396B has a heat sink temperature rise of 56°C
(
θ
HA
= 56°C/10W = 5.6°C/W), which is below the required 66°C
required in this example. Thermalloy model number 6399B has
a sink temperature rise of 33°C (
θ
HA
= 33°C/10W = 3.3°C/W),
which is also below the required 66°C required in this example.
Figure 7 shows power dissipation versus ambient temperature
for a 11-lead power ZIP package with the Thermalloy 6396B
and 6399B heat sinks.
FIGURE 7. Maximum Power Dissipation vs Ambient Temperature.
Another variable to consider is natural convection versus
forced convection air flow. Forced-air cooling by a small fan
can lower
θ
CA (
θ
CH +
θ
HA) dramatically. Some heat sink
manufacturers provide thermal data for both of these cases.
Heat sink performance is generally specified under idealized
conditions that may be difficult to achieve in an actual
application. For additional information on determining heat
sink requirements, consult Application Report SBOA021.

avoided with clamp diodes from the output terminal to the
power supplies, as shown in Figure 8. Schottky rectifier
diodes with a 8A or greater continuous rating are recom-
mended.
VOLTAGE SOURCE APPLICATION
Figure 9 illustrates how to use the OPA549 to provide an
accurate voltage source with only three external resistors.
First, the current limit resistor, RCL, is chosen according to
the 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 an
external reference. The feedback resistors are selected to
gain VCL to the desired output voltage level.
As mentioned earlier, once a heat sink has been selected,
the complete design should be tested under worst-case load
and signal conditions to ensure proper thermal protection.
Any tendency to activate the thermal protection circuitry may
indicate inadequate heat sinking.
The tab of the 11-lead power ZIP package is electrically
connected to the negative supply, V. It may be desirable to
isolate the tab of the 11-lead power ZIP package from its
mounting surface with a mica (or other film) insulator. For
lowest overall thermal resistance, it is best to isolate the
entire heat sink/OPA549 structure from the mounting surface
rather than to use an insulator between the semiconductor
and heat sink.
OUTPUT STAGE COMPENSATION
The complex load impedances common in power op amp
applications can cause output stage instability. For normal
operation, output compensation circuitry is typically not re-
quired. However, for difficult loads or if the OPA549 is in-
tended to be driven into current limit, an R/C network may be
required. Figure 8 shows an output R/C compensation (snub-
ber) network which generally provides excellent stability.

A snubber circuit may also enhance stability when driving
large capacitive loads (> 1000pF) or inductive loads (motors,
loads separated from the amplifier by long cables). Typically,
3 to 10 resistors in series with 0.01µF to 0.1µF capacitors
is adequate. Some variations in circuit values may be required
with certain loads.
OUTPUT PROTECTION
Reactive and EMF-generating loads can return load current
to the amplifier, causing the output voltage to exceed the
power-supply voltage. This damaging condition can be
PROGRAMMABLE POWER SUPPLY
A programmable source/sink power supply can easily be
built using the OPA549. Both the output voltage and output
current are user-controlled. See Figure 10 for a circuit using
potentiometers to adjust the output voltage and current while
Figure 11 uses DACs. An LED connected to the E/S pin
through a logic gate indicates if the OPA549 is in thermal
shutdown.
