APPLICATION NOTES CON'T
VOFF CONTROL INPUT
The brightness (output offset) can be linearly adjusted by
applying a 0 to VREF DC voltage to the VOFF input pin. The
output quiescent voltage range is from approximately (5µA)(Rp)
to (100mA)(Rp) from -VHV. This control voltage is normally
generated by connecting the VOFF control pin to a 5K potenti-
ometer between VREF and ground. The VOFF input pin should
be bypassed with a 0.1µF capacitor to ground placed as close
as possible to the hybrid. This DC voltage can be any stable
system source. The bandwidth of the VOFF pin is approximately
1MHz.
Keep hybrid power dissipation in mind when adjusting the
output quiescent voltage. Practically all of the voltage is seen
across Rp! This power must be taken into account when high
Rp currents are used. If the quiescent level is set too close to
-VHV, the power dissipation will be minimal but the rise time
will suffer slightly. If the quiescent level is set too far from
-VHV, the power dissipation will increase dramatically and the
output fall time will be limited. The output black level is obvi-
ously dependent on system requirements but a little experi-
mentation will strike the optimum balance between power dis-
sipation and bandwidth. Total current through Rp should be
limited to less than 290mA when operating from power sup-
plies greater than 90V. The gain adjust alone can set the AC
current to 250mA (ie: 250mApp=100Vpp/400Ω). Typically,
most applications use about 10V from -VHV for a black level.
BLANK INPUT
The video input can be electrically disconnected from the
ampliifer by applying a TTL high input to the blank pin. When
this occurs, the output will be set to approximately -VHV. The
VGAIN and VOFF control pins have little or no effect on the out-
put when it is in blank mode.
When the TTL compatible blank input is not used, the pin
must be connected to ground to enable the amplifier. The blank
input will float high when left unconnected which will disable
the video.
VREF OUTPUT
The MSK 1933 has an on board buffered DC zener reference
output. The VREF output is nominally 5.5V DC and has full
temperature test limits of 5.2V to 5.8V DC. This output is
provided for gain and offset adjustment and can source up to
4mA of current.
THERMAL MANAGEMENT
The MSK 1933 package has mounting holes that allow the
user to connect the amplifier to a heat sink or chassis. Since
the package is electrically isolated from the internal circuitry,
mounting insulators are not required or desired for best thermal
performance. Use 4 to 6 inch/pounds for mounting the device
to the heat sink.
The power dissipation of the amplifier depends mainly on the
load requirements, bandwidth, pixel size, black level and the
value of Rp. The following table illustrates a few examples:

This table does not include power dissipation due to output switching since this is dependent on individual load requirements. The input stage
power dissipation is typically 2.5 watts and is essentially independent of output levels.
