About the opa445

Recommended Posts

Dear all,



i have two questions about the OPA445.



First, about the "package-lead", there are 4 kind of the package,

"DIP-8", "SO-8 Surface-Mount", "SO-8 PowerPAD" and "TO-99 8-Pin".

What's the difference in the performance between these 4 kinds of the package?



The second question is, recently, I bought a OPA445AP to design a power amplifier.

The power amplifier is chose to be inverting power amplifier.

The input resistor and output resistor are 3M Ohm and 12M Ohm, so the gain is 12M/3M=4 if neglecting the minus sign.

According to the datasheet of OPA445, the supply voltages of OPA445 could as high as +/- 45V.

However, when applying +/- 40V, in addition to the output signal is disappeared from the oscillator scope, 

the temperature of the OPA445AP is quite high.

But, when applying +/-30V, the performance is quite well and the temperature is moderate.

So, what's the problem in the OPA445 or my circuit ?

Is anyone can help me?

Thank you very much.

The very high stray capacitances of a breadboard connector tracks to each other and to the many connecting wires causes modern high frequency opamps to oscillate at a high frequency which causes them to get hot.
A breadboard was fine with a lousy old (43 years old) 741 opamp that has poor high frequency response.

Sorry for that questions i hardly can reply for you, but i think the best answer is from the salers, why not you just go to the electronic  mall to get the answers or you can search them by internet and then call them.
