This device is designed to avoid phase inversion problems that are typically found in similar op amps. The OPA462 is unity-gain stable, and comes in an SO PowerPAD™ package. OPA462EVM The OPA462EVM is intended to provide basic functional evaluation of the OPA462. The EVM provides the following features: •...
Power Supplies The OPA462EVM can be configured from ±6 V to ±90 V for dual supply operation, or from 12 V to 180 V for single-supply operation. Shorting pins 2 and 3 of J5 sets the EVM to single supply, and shorting pins 1 and 2 of J5 sets up the EVM for dual supplies.
2.6.1 Circuit Protection The OPA462EVM is protected from inductive surges and power supply transients with the use of Schottkey diodes on the amplifier output and transient voltage suppressors on the power supply inputs. See D1, D2, D3 and D4 on the schematic shown in...
Improved Howland Current Pump The OPA462EVM can be configured as an improved Howland current pump that provides an output current proportional to a single- or differential-input voltage. The improved Howland current pump is described and analyzed in section 3 of the...
The OPA462EVM has a number of positions where component may be added to stabilize the various OPA462 amplifier and improved Howland current pump configurations that are supported by the EVM.
