DESCRIPTION
The OPA541 is a power operational amplifier capable of
operation from power supplies up to ±40V and delivering
continuous output currents up to 5A. Internal current limit
circuitry can be user-programmed with a single external
resistor, protecting the amplifier and load from fault condi-
tions. The OPA541 is fabricated using a proprietary bipolar/
FET process.
Pinout is compatible with popular hybrid power amplifiers
such as the OPA511, OPA512 and the 3573. The OPA541
uses a single current-limit resistor to set both the positive and

negative current limits. Applications currently using hybrid
power amplifiers requiring two current-limit resistors need not
be modified.
The OPA541 is available in an 11-pin power plastic package
and an industry-standard 8-pin TO-3 hermetic package. The
power plastic package has a copper-lead frame to maximize
heat transfer. The TO-3 package is isolated from all circuitry,
allowing it to be mounted directly to a heat sink without
special insulators.
