7.1 Application Information

The THS3470 is a high-speed, high-voltage, high-current operational amplifier. The device is capable of creating voltage pulses of 2000V/μs at 50VPP into 1nF capacitive loads. In addition to the THS3470 fast transient performance, the THS3470 can pass large signals at 50VPP into 100Ω transmission lines for frequencies up to 22MHz. With regards to high-current operation, the THS3470 has separate current-limit features for output sourcing and sinking, with a configurable range from 200mA to 1.5A. To help system designers with device diagnostics and protection, the THS3470 comes with temperature and current flags to signify over-temperature or over-current conditions of the device. Additionally, designers may use the die temperature pin for more granular readouts of the device junction temperature to proactively take steps for system protection.
