  • Page 3: Introduction

    1 Introduction The PD200X4 is a four-channel linear amplifier for driving piezoelectric actuators and other loads. The output voltage range can be unipolar, bipolar, or asymmetric from 50V to 200V. Up to +/-200V can be achieved using two channels with a bridged load. Refer to the specifications table for the available output voltage ranges.

    * For AC signals greater than 100 Hz. The total RMS current limit for all four channels is 2.6 Arms, which can occur with 100 Vp-p and 150 Vp-p models, or with large load capacitances with a power bandwidth less than 100 Hz. **A 3D Model is available at www.piezodrive.com PD200X4 V2 Manual Modified 13/01/2021...
  • Page 6: Signal Path

    6 Signal Path The signal paths for channels 1 and 2 are shown in Figure 1, which are identical to channels 3 and 4. The signal path includes a DC offset and voltage limit, which are set by front panel controls. The DC offset function can be disabled with the –OSD option, e.g.
  • Page 7: Bridged Mode

    7 Bridged Mode In bridged mode, two channels are connected in series to double the output voltage range and power. For example, the PD200X4-V100,100 has four independent channels with a range of +/-100 V. When the Bridge Mode switch is enabled, channel 2 is inverting, which results in +/-200 V across the load.

    Figure 3. Calculator inputs for driving a bridged 1uF load with +/-200V. The recommended order codes for bridge-mode operation are listed in Table 2. Note that any PD200X4 amplifier can be operated with a bridged load; however, asymmetric voltage ranges (e.g. 0V to +200V) require the inversion function to be implemented externally.
  • Page 9: Pulse Current Option

    For applications that require a high peak current, the peak current limit can be increased to 10 Amps by appending the order code with “-PULSE”, e.g. “PD200X4-V0,200-PULSE”. In this configuration, the average current limit remains the same; however, the peak current limit is increased to 10 Amps and the maximum pulse duration is reduced to the time listed in Table 3.

  • Page 13: Noise

    12 Noise The output noise contains a low frequency component (0.03 Hz to 20 Hz) that is independent of the load capacitance; and a high frequency (20 Hz to 1 MHz) component that is approximately inversely proportional to the load capacitance. The noise is measured with a preamplifier with a gain of 1000, an oscilloscope, and Agilent 34461A Voltmeter.

    The screw terminals or LEMO connector is recommended for applications requiring more than 1 Amp RMS output current. Preassembled LEMO cable assemblies (e.g. PD-0B302-W-120) are available from www.PiezoDrive.com The auxiliary signals connector is a 15-way DSUB receptacle (3M 8315-6000), it suits any 15-way male DSUB plug.

    -100V on HV+ and HV- respectively. For amplifier configurations where the HV- output is zero (e.g. PD200X4-V0,200), it is preferable to use ground rather than the HV- output. If specialized bias voltages are required, an amplifier output channel can be used with a DC offset.
