Description

This LSP2916 16-channel, high-voltage (HV) driver is targeted for microoptomechanical systems. Each device contains 16 high-voltage amplifiers with an output voltage range of 0 V to –298 V. Internal gain-setting resistors provide a fixed gain of –32 V/V, thereby minimizing external component count. Each amplifier can output up to 300 µA, ideal for deflection and control of optical MEMS mirrors. Output current limit is programmed by an external resistor.

Features

■ 16 amplifier channels available in one package.

■ Outputs from 0 V to –298 V per channel.

■ Programmable output current limit (50 µA to 300 µA).

■ Fixed gain set by internal resistors. (The fixed gain for version A is –32 V/V, and –66 V/V for version B.)

■ Minimal external components.

Applications

■ Optical crosspoint switches.

■ Optical microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) components.
