DESCRIPTION
The STV5109 includes three video amplifiers
desi-gned with a high voltage bipolar/CMOS/
DMOS technology (BCD). It drives directly the
three cathodes and is protected against
flashovers. Thanks to its three cathode current
outputs, the STV5109 can be used with both par-
allel and sequential sampling applications.

TYPICAL APPLICATION
The STV5109 is composed of three independent
amplifiers, each of them including :
A differential amplifier, the gain of which is fixed
by external feedback resistors,
A voltage reference,
A PMOS transistor providing a copy of the cath-
ode current,
A protection diode against CRT arc discharges.
PC Board Layout
The best performances of the high voltage video
amplifier will be obtained only with a carefully desi-
gned PC board. Output to input capacitance is of
particular importance.
For a single amplifier, the input-output capaci-
tance, in parallel with the relatively high feedback
resis-tance, creates a pole in the closed-loop
transfer function.
A low parasitic capacitance (0.3pF) feedback re-
sistor and HF isolated printed wires are necessary.
Furthermore, capacitive coupling from the output
of an amplifier toward the input of another one may
induce excessive cross-talk.
Power Dissipation
The power dissipation consists of a static part and
a dynamic part. The static dissipation is a function
of V
OUT
(DC), V
DD
and R
F
. Reasonable approxi-
mation of the static power can be calculated by the
following equation:
The dynamic dissipation depends on the signal
spectrum, V
OUT
, V
DD
and the load capacitance.
For a sine wave, dynamic dissipation is
P
d
= 3 x F x C
L
x V
OPP
x 0.8 x V
DD
.
The load capacitance C
L
includes CRT and board
capacitance (10pF), and amplifier output capaci-
tance (8pF) : total C
L
value is about 20pF.
