Theory of Operation
The LM2409 is a high voltage monolithic three channel CRT
driver suitable for high resolution display applications. The
LM2409 operates with 80V and 12V power supplies. The
part is housed in the industry standard 11-lead TO-220
molded plastic power package.
The circuit diagram of the LM2409 is shown in Figure 1 . The
PNP emitter follower, Q5, provides input buffering. Q1 and
Q2 form a fixed gain cascode amplifier with resistors R1 and
R2 setting the gain at −14. Emitter followers Q3 and Q4 iso-
late the high output impedance of the cascode stage from
the capacitance of the CRT cathode which decreases the
sensitivity of the device to load capacitance. Q6 provides bi-
asing to the output emitter follower stage to reduce cross-
over distortion at low signal levels.
Figure 2 shows a typical test circuit for evaluation of the
LM2409. This circuit is designed to allow testing of the
LM2409 in a 50
sive FET probe. In this test circuit, two low inductance resis-
tors in series totaling 4.95 k
capacitance probe when connected to a 50
and a 50
put signal from the generator is ac coupled to the base of
Q5.
Application Hints
INTRODUCTION
National Semiconductor (NSC) is committed to provide ap-
plication information that assists our customers in obtaining
the best performance possible from our products. The follow-
ing information is provided in order to support this commit-
ment. The reader should be aware that the optimization of
performance was done using a specific printed circuit board
designed at NSC. Variations in performance can be realized
due to physical changes in the printed circuit board and the
application. Therefore, the designer should know that com-
ponent value changes may be required in order to optimize
performance in a given application. The values shown in this
document can be used as a starting point for evaluation pur-
poses. When working with high bandwidth circuits, good lay-
out practices are also critical to achieving maximum perfor-
mance.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The LM2409 performance is targeted for the VGA (640 x
480) to XGA (1024 x 768, 70 Hz refresh) resolution market.
It is designed to be a replacement for discrete CRT drivers.
The application circuits shown in this document to optimize
performance and to protect against damage from CRT arc-
load (such as a 50
FIGURE 9. One Channel of the LM2409 with the Recommended Arc Protection Circuit
environment without the use of an expen-
form a 100:1 wideband, low
oscilloscope input). The in-
coaxial cable

over are designed specifically for the LM2409. If another
member of the LM240X family is used, please refer to its
datasheet.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASS
Since the LM2409 is a wide bandwidth amplifier, proper
power supply bypassing is critical for optimum performance.
Improper power supply bypassing can result in large over-
shoot, ringing or oscillation. A 0.01 µF capacitor should be
connected from the supply pin, V
the supply and ground pins as is practical. Additionally, a
10 µF to 100 µF electrolytic capacitor should be connected
from the supply pin to ground. The electrolytic capacitor
should also be placed reasonably close to the LM2409’s
supply and ground pins. A 0.1 µF capacitor should be con-
nected from the bias pin, V
tical to the part.
ARC PROTECTION
During normal CRT operation, internal arcing may occasion-
ally occur. Spark gaps, in the range of 200V, connected from
the CRT cathodes to CRT ground will limit the maximum volt-
age, but to a value that is much higher than allowable on the
LM2409. This fast, high voltage, high energy pulse can dam-
age the LM2409 output stage. The application circuit shown
in Figure 9 is designed to help clamp the voltage at the out-
put of the LM2409 to a safe level. The clamp diodes, D1 and
D2, should have a fast transient response, high peak current
rating, low series impedance and low shunt capacitance.
FDH400 or equivalent diodes are recommended. Do not use
1N4148 or equivalent diodes for the clamp diodes. D1 and
D2 should have short, low impedance connections to V
and ground respectively. The cathode of D1 should be lo-
cated very close to a separately decoupled bypass capacitor
(C3 in Figure 9 ). The ground connection of D2 and the de-
coupling capacitor should be very close to the LM2409
ground. This will significantly reduce the high frequency volt-
age transients that the LM2409 would be subjected to during
an arcover condition. Resistor R2 limits the arcover current
that is seen by the diodes while R1 limits the current into the
LM2409 as well as the voltage stress at the outputs of the
device. R2 should be a 1/2W solid carbon type resistor. R1
can be a 1/4W metal or carbon film type resistor. Having
large value resistors for R1 and R2 would be desirable, but
this has the effect of increasing rise and fall times. Inductor
L1 is critical to reduce the initial high frequency voltage lev-
els that the LM2409 would be subjected to. The inductor will
not only help protect the device but it will also help maximize
rise and fall times as well as minimize EMI. For proper arc
protection, it is important to not omit any of the arc protection
components shown in Figure 9 .
