Description:20A, 100V PWM Amplifier with Programmable Current Limit, Voltage supply operation – 16V to 100V, High output current - 20A continuous, 30A PEAK, Power delivered to load - 2,000W.
Apex Microtechnology recommends a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane, and a separate analog and digital power plane. The SA01 should be placed near the analog power plane, and the input and output capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the device.
To ensure stability, Apex recommends using a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and a maximum output capacitance of 100uF. Additionally, the input and output capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the device, and the PCB layout should be designed to minimize parasitic inductance and capacitance.
The maximum safe operating area (SOA) for the SA01 is defined by the maximum voltage and current ratings. The device can operate safely up to 100V and 10A, but the user should ensure that the device is operated within the recommended operating conditions to prevent damage or degradation.
Apex recommends using external overvoltage protection (OVP) and overcurrent protection (OCP) circuits to protect the SA01 from damage. The OVP circuit should be designed to clamp the input voltage to a safe level, and the OCP circuit should be designed to limit the output current to a safe level.
The thermal derating curve for the SA01 is not explicitly stated in the datasheet, but Apex recommends derating the device by 1.5% per degree Celsius above 25°C. This means that the device's power rating should be reduced by 1.5% for every degree above 25°C to prevent overheating and ensure reliable operation.
