For the
application in custom specific ICs this new high voltage operational
amplifier OP601VHV has been designed for
supply voltages of up to ±40V or up to 80V single supply.
The common mode input voltage covers nearly the complete
supply voltage range with a very good common mode and power supply
rejection ratio of more than 110dB. The output voltage can
approximate the positive or negative supply voltage as close as 1V.
The temperature increase of the component remains small in spite of
the high voltages due to the low quiescent current of only 1.4 mA.
Fast control circuits may be designed with this OP601VHV due to the
high gain bandwidth product and a slew rate of typical 1V/µs.
The new high voltage operational amplifier
OP601VHV has been developed and produced with the enhanced
semiconductor process ModuS U6 by the ASIC specialist PREMA
Semiconductor.
The OP601VHV can be used e.g. in a motor control circuit with
current sensing using a shunt resistor at high potential. The wide
common mode input range allows high impedance measurements of small
differential voltages at high potentials, e.g. in Wheatstone
bridges. Actors using higher voltages can be driven directly by the
ASIC.
For the design of high voltage ASICs, PREMA offers linear
regulators, step-down converters and several output drivers. Several
externally connected components can be saved because high voltage
transistors and resistors can be integrated now into the ASIC.
